What is a Sumdog friend?
If you like, you can add friends on Sumdog. Having somebody as a friend allows you to view their profile and compare high-scores in the games.
Note: Remember, only add people you know as friends. You should also not give out your unique friend ID to people you do not know.
To view a friend’s Sumdog profile, click the blue button on your student dashboard
Click ‘House’
Select the friend’s name in the Friends panel.
You can edit your own profile by selecting the Profile pane in the House
At the end of each game, you can select the Friends tab to view the high-scores of your friends. This is a fun way to compete with each other and encourage you both to progress!
How do I add my friends?
If you like, you can add friends on Sumdog. This means that you’ll be able to play against them more easily when using Sumdog at home. Having friends on Sumdog also allows you to give and receive gifts (which are items bought from the Sumdog store using coins).
Note: Make sure you only accept friend requests from people you know. It is also important that you do not give out your friend ID to people you do not know.

Alternatively, you can give your unique Friend ID to somebody and they can add you as a friend. Your unique Friend ID is shown on the ‘Add friends’ page.
To accept a friend request click on either Yes or No next to their name under Friend requests
