        Three shout-out types — 🎊 Confetti (5 pts), 🎆 Fireworks (10 pts), ✨ Laser Show (50 pts) — each triggers a matching full-screen canvas animation on send.
Search any student or teacher by name and attach an optional message up to 150 characters.
Points are deducted the moment the shout-out is confirmed — students can see exactly how many they'll have left before sending.
Types the student can't currently afford are shown as greyed out with the shortfall displayed.

        A full history of every shout-out you've sent
        Every shout-out a student sends is saved in their personal history list — with the recipient's name, message, type, and date.
Students can tap Replay to re-fire the original animation on any past shout-out, no points spent.
The recipient sees the shout-out the next time they log into the app — it appears as a notification-style card with the animation playing.
Shout-outs can be sent to any student or teacher in the school — great for celebrating teachers who go above and beyond.

            Profanity Filter — Flagged Message
            Admin
          
From: Jake T. → Amara K.

            "[blocked] — message contained flagged language"
          
Message was not delivered. Jake T. has been flagged for admin review.

        Profanity filter keeps it safe — automatically
        Every shout-out message passes through an automated profanity filter before it is delivered — no message with flagged language ever reaches a recipient.
Attempted messages that fail the filter are logged and surfaced to admins for potential follow-up with the sending student.
The recipient never sees a blocked message — the system handles it silently on the sender's end.
The incoming shout-out notification plays the full animation on the recipient's next login — making the moment feel genuinely special.

      

How It Works

Recognition delivered in four steps

Pick a type

Student taps Confetti, Fireworks, or Laser Show — each has a different cost and animation. Greyed out if they can't afford it yet.

Choose a recipient & write

Search any student or teacher by name. Add an optional message up to 150 characters. Points balance updates in real time.

Animation fires on send

Tapping "Send It" deducts points, triggers the canvas animation, and the shout-out is saved to the sender's history list.

Recipient sees it on login

The recipient sees the shout-out as an animated notification card the next time they open the app. All messages have cleared the profanity filter first.
