What is the Quiz Feature?

The Quiz feature is an interactive question-and-answer engine inside your mobile app. Users see a question, pick an answer (or type one in for free-response), and the app scores in real time. Quizzes can be timed, paginated, or single-question, and the results page can show a score, a leaderboard, or a personality-style outcome based on the answers.

Common use cases: trivia apps, training and certification, sales-team onboarding, customer-knowledge surveys, marketing engagement (BuzzFeed-style "what kind of X are you" quizzes), educational learning paths.

The Editor Workflow

The Quiz editor is structured as a hierarchy: Categories at the top (groups of quizzes), Quizzes inside each category, Questions inside each quiz. The editor cards step through this top-down:

Build the structure top-down: create a category, add a quiz to it, add questions to the quiz, set the pass score and time limit. The editor autosaves on every change.

Header / Welcome: title and subtitle for the quiz home page (the screen users see before picking a quiz).
Appearance: theme + custom colors that style the quiz player and results.
Categories: top-level groupings. Each category has a name, optional cover image, and a list of quizzes inside it.
Quizzes: individual quiz definitions. Each quiz has a title, description, time limit (optional), pass score, and a list of questions.
Questions / Fields: the actual questions. Field types include single-choice (radio), multiple-choice (checkboxes), true/false, free text, image-based questions, and section breaks.
Settings: leaderboard on/off, retake policy, certificate generation on pass.

Question Types

Single-choice (radio): classic "pick one" question. Most common for trivia.
Multiple-choice (checkboxes): pick all that apply. Useful when more than one answer is correct.
True / False: two-option question with a default scoring rule.
Free text: typed-in answer. The editor lets you set acceptable strings, the engine compares case-insensitive.
Image question: question prompt + an image. Useful for visual identification.
Section break: groups questions into pages so users see them in chunks rather than as a long scroll.
Personality outcome: rather than scoring, each answer maps to one of N personalities. The result screen shows the dominant personality at the end.

Live Preview of the Quiz

Here is how the quiz feature renders inside a real phone before any quizzes are added (the empty state is what new customers see first):

The native quiz home screen. Logged-in users see categories first, then drill into a quiz. Time-limited quizzes show a countdown at the top. The result screen offers Share, Retake, or Continue actions depending on the quiz settings.

Tips and Best Practices

Short quizzes complete more often. 5-10 question quizzes hit ~70% completion. 30+ question quizzes drop below 30%. Split long content across multiple quizzes inside a category.
Time limits feel like games. Adding a 60-second timer on each question turns a survey into a competitive trivia game. Use selectively, time pressure is not always appropriate.
Pass score matters for certification. If the quiz is graded for training, set a sensible pass score (70-80%) and turn on the certificate generator. Users who pass get a downloadable PDF.
Leaderboards drive replays. Turn on the leaderboard if the quiz is the same every time. Skip it if the quiz randomizes questions, the leaderboard becomes meaningless.
Personality outcomes work for marketing quizzes. "Which of our products fits you?" rather than "did you get the answer right?" turns a quiz into a recommendation engine.
Image questions need fast-loading images. Same rule as the rest of the platform: square JPG/PNG, 1000x1000 max, optimised for mobile networks.
