How does a QuizUp duel work?
Each duel is 7 multiple-choice questions with 10 seconds to answer each one. A correct answer scores 10 points plus up to 10 bonus points for speed, and the 7th question counts double, so the maximum score is 160.
Who do I play against?
QuizUp first looks for a live opponent on the same topic. If nobody is free within a few seconds, you play a ghost: a real player's earlier run on the same questions, replayed with their real answer times. If neither is available, you play a bot that is clearly labeled as a bot.
What topics can I play?
102 topics in 16 categories, from general knowledge, flags and geography to football, anime, movies, TV shows and video games, with 16,700+ questions in total. Each topic has its own level and weekly leaderboard.
Can I challenge a friend?
Yes, once you are signed in. After a duel, send a challenge link: your friend plays the same questions against your run. A free account can send 3 challenges a day, and Pro has no limit.
Is there a QuizUp app to download?
There is nothing to install. QuizUp runs in the browser of any phone, tablet or computer, so you can start a duel from a link in seconds.
What is the QuizUp Quiz Maker?
The Quiz Maker is the QuizUp quiz builder for teachers and creators. Create a quiz with AI, share it with a link, and AI grading compares each answer with the one you expect, so every response is corrected for you.
