  • Pretty cool

    Unlike other 'play for real money' apps this one is fun and straight forward. The instructions are easy to understand, the games are fun and the payouts are real, quick, and convenient. Definitely recommend this
  • Wanted to like this app so much :(

    Look I love trivia and when I was stopped at SXSW and invited to a lounge sponsored by a trivia app I was pumped!! Joined the SXSW game for $1000. Won $70. Sort of. Despite the folks in the lounge talking like this was real $ I can’t cash it out. I’ve given them the creepy amounts of data they ask for but it still says I’ve got $72 in my “account” with 0 to withdraw. Fine, it’s just promotional free play credits. I’ve been to Vegas, I can roll with that and I’ll just use my $72 to play trivia games. Maybe win, probably lose but whatever, right?

    Except THERE ARE NEVER ANY GAMES AT THE TIME I CAN PLAY. There are ONLY games from 7pm-9pm as far as I can tell. Have some down time over lunch and want to play? You can’t. Want to play a game in bed before you go to sleep? Nah. Want to just jump in whenever and play one of their other rounds? Nope. You can play a very specific category at 7:15pm. If it doesn’t glitch on you. And while you’re playing, it MAY just skip a question or two, or time out so you have 3 seconds to answer.

    Ugh, I love trivia so much and I really wanted to love Big Brain but right now the app is just bad. Sorry y’all.

  • Love this app but…

    I had my phone unlocked. And it must have signed me up for a 5$ tournament and I also can’t get my notifications enabled to notify me of my games so I lost the $5? Wondering if it says zero points if it proves we didn’t participate in the game
  • Great app, fun and legit

    Other trivia apps have been fishy with paying out. BigBrain is the real deal. Topics are always fresh and interesting, and you really need to know your stuff to win. Shout out to my worthy nemeses, you know who you are!
  • Seems to be riddled with cheating

    I would not recommend wasting your money like I did. You will never win a game because you have to compete against what seems like bots that play every single game. Even the questions you have to type it takes more than the allotted time to type in the answer and people still get perfect scores somehow.

    To win any of the games you have to get every single answer correct. Even if you do though you most likely can only get one question right after the score starts decreasing to win any money. So you have a split second to read, know the answer and choose it or type it in. It is near impossible.

    I am unsure but the odds of the same people getting the questions right in 3 seconds for every single category does not seem valid. Unless the people on this app are somehow geniuses or have seen the questions before, I do not see how they are not cheating. Watch the names of the people who come in first every single time you play. There is no way they aren’t cheating. Something seems wrong.

    If you play you will see that the same people are in every single game. There is no way to beat them and it really makes the app stink. Maybe separate the same into experience level or limit the number of times someone can play in a day.

  • I shouldn't have installed. Identification theft?

    Well I dont know about you, But I dont feel comfortable sending a game site a picture of my driver's license. Yep that or a real photo of my passport. This is the only way to cash out your winnings. When you first sign up the app says it needs your exact location to cash out. Ok I allowed thats, but now you want a picture of my real ID?? How am I supposed to trust some app with that kind of info??? No way to get the money youve won without sending the app some heavy personal information. No thank you. I dont trust you.

  • Difficult to play on iPhone

    I enjoy playing this game but it is difficult to play on iPhone because the photo clues are very difficult to see. Also, this game is more about typing speed than knowledge. I’ve been screwed out of cash numerous times because I’ve known the answer but mistyped or typed too slowly to avoid a misspelling.

  • Pretty Cool

    I love this app!!!! It's fun and the topics are all pretty cool and interesting. Definitely worth downloading and playing. I haven't won anything yet so I don't know how the withdrawal process works but everything else has been legit so far.
  • Best one yet

    I love this app. It’s a hundred times better than HQ or any others of that ilk. The contests are good and I like that only a certain number of people can win money … unlike HQ where sometimes you’d have thousands of people winning the contest and getting maybe 2 cents.
