Badges and trophies
Badges mark the milestones you reach as you build your collection and use the app. The Trophy Room is where they all live — a display of everything you've unlocked. You'll find both in the Engagement Hub.

How you earn them
Badges unlock as you use RetroTechCollector — cataloguing items, reaching milestones, completing quests, and taking part in the community. Some are one-off achievements; others come in tiers, so you earn a higher grade as you go further.
You don't have to chase them. Most unlock naturally as you catalogue and take part, and you'll get a notification when a new one lands.
The Trophy Room
The Trophy Room is your full collection of badges in one place. Earned badges are shown alongside ones you haven't unlocked yet, so you can see what's still to come and what each one takes.

Where your badges show
Your badges appear in two places:
- In the Engagement Hub, where you manage and browse the full Trophy Room.
- On your profile, under the Trophies tab, so other collectors can see what you've earned.
See Social for more on your profile and its showcase tabs.
