### 4/5 — QuizUp Nostalgia

*2026-07-28, version 1.0.35*

It’s a long way off of becoming what QuizUp used to be, but I’m at least happy to have finally found a solid alternative 🥹 all it’s really missing, for me, is more topics, which I can only hope will expand in time, as the game and player count does. Definitely looking forward to that day! (super looking forward to the Adventure Time and GoT/HOTD quizzes- at least more questions for ASOIAF 😅 3/5 questions for one round asked us who pushed Bran from the tower 😂 aha)

### 2/5 — All bots

*2026-07-20, version 1.0.35*

The actual content is fun to play. But when I say EVERY player is a bot, I mean every single one. You can become #1 by knowing the McDonald’s logo. Players from the US will take 10 seconds to recognize the us flag. It’s bad

### 4/5 — Offline

*2026-05-16, version 1.0.35*

Give local offline options

### 4/5 — I like it!

*2026-02-11, version 1.0.35*

I have really missed QuizUp and I’m glad to see this exists. Wish it wasn’t pushing live so much (even though that’s its selling point). Mostly it defaulting to live after a general “play” match. Also, I’m wondering if they may be the possibility for a riddles category in the future. That was my favorite from QuizUp

### 4/5 — Enfin un remplaçant!

*2026-01-31*

Super app comme quiz Up seul problème… c’est en anglais. Donc difficile sur certaine question.

### 4/5 — Cool

*2026-01-14, version 1.0.35*

Sway is interesting. It’s different, it’s fun, it’s difficult, and quite basic and easy to play. There’s nothing too special about it, but it doesn’t really have problems.

### 3/5 — Quizzup back

*2026-01-10*

Finally the best game ever is back, but please, for the love of everyone put some more languages (French first)

### 4/5 — More quizzes?

*2026-01-03, version 1.0.35*

This is a fun game but I think you'd get more people to join if you added things like Formula 1, Nascar, etc. and gave us the option to disable our location in case someone doesn't wanna share it.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2025-12-25*

Wie das original

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-12-25, version 1.0.35*

I’m #1in the world in spelling

### 5/5 — Educational

*2025-12-20, version 1.0.35*

It is very fun and has a lot of good quizzes, but you can also do stuff to help with school which is amazing!!!

### 5/5 — Big Bang Theory trivia

*2025-12-20, version 1.0.35*

Add the tv show The Big Bang Theory trivia

### 5/5 — A stellar trivia game app, with live quiz shows (only issue I have is…..)

*2025-12-07, version 1.0.34*

Quite possibly one of my favorite trivia game apps ever. It does what it says, and most of the categories, and questions are immensely easy, but there are those few questions that may stump you, and that’s okay! You live and you learn. The prizes in the shows are money pools. So depending on what that may be, a $100 pool can be split between 43 people, or $500 can be split between 4 people. It can happen, but you just have to answer each question correctly. No harm, no foul. My ONLY PROBLEM with Sway is the annoying the chat that each live show has, because of the overly annoying people that act and sound like children (young tweens and teens from around the globe), and you know that can be annoying. I just want them to have the option of allowing users to turn the chat off during the live shows. It would help immensely!

### 5/5 — The BEST trivia app atm

*2025-12-07, version 1.0.34*

not sure how I even came across sway but started playing a month ago and now my bf and I play everyday. Can confirm the money/payouts are real you just have to win $10 before cashing out. Low key didn’t wanna post a good review or share with too many people cus the more players the less money the winners get!  But hey maybe the more new people the bigger the prize pits will get

### 1/5 — Few categories, too easy, and ADs!!!

*2026-08-25, version 1.0.35*

It’s another bait and switch app. First of all, when you create your account, they require a picture and thus access to your photo library and camera. Then, there are hardly any real trivia categories (only one general “science” category, plus a disproportionate number of Texas and pokemon themed categories), and the questions are all insanely simple (like, “what is this item” and the show you a picture of it). And on top of that, they put ads that cover the screen and don’t let you exit out of them.  

 Complete scam.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-08-12, version 1.0.35*

Too many ads

### 1/5 — Can’t cash out, no more live shows or devs

*2026-06-13, version 1.0.35*

Devs are radio silent & there are no more live trivia shows. You can’t cash out the winnings you’ve earned & the app is so empty that every trivia game you start will match you with a bot. Insanely disappointing

### 1/5 — Do not download.

*2026-05-26, version 1.0.35*

I’ve never felt compelled to write an app review until now. The live games are completely inactive. Cashing out is no longer possible, so I can’t access any of the money I’ve won over the past couple of months. The Rocky Road team gave zero prior notice of this happening. I’ve reached out to their support team twice now but have heard absolutely nothing back.

While the lack of communication sucks, it’s also incredibly sketchy to keep this app (with in-app transactions no less) running when the development team has practically disappeared. It’s just incredibly disappointing. Do not waste your time installing this app.

### 1/5 — Zero effort

*2026-02-06, version 1.0.35*

Functional UI yet terrible execution. A miserably failed remake of QuizUp. They offer 20 different categories with about 10 unique questions per category including “2+2?” And “First US president?” These questions would barely tax the intellect of my precocious 5-
year-old

### 1/5 — App is full of bots

*2026-01-22, version 1.0.35*

App is rigged and is trash and I never win I will make a petition to get this app shutdown asap so nobody can use it hahahahaha

### 1/5 — Does not load

*2025-11-23, version 1.0.30*

The app does not load. Should be removed.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-11-18, version 1.0.29*

Most of the answers are actually wrong and pop culture.

### 1/5 — Embarrassing.

*2025-11-17*

Why don't you give us an option to not play against bots if the category is empty? Just tell me no one is playing it so I'll pick a different one, literally most "fun" of this game is the community aspect, yet quite often I end up playing the same bot accounts that seem around all the time yet are only level 2 or 3. 
Also the selection of regions seems random and ridiculous. Azerbaijan but no Georgia? And why can't I at least list my real location city/country? Have to add it to my name like a weirdo. 
Often there aren't enough questions in the category so it ends up being really unbalanced where the first 4 questions are very easy, then the last one is very hard so people end up randomly guessing or winning just because they answered the super easy questions faster.

### 1/5 — AVOID SUBSCRIPTION

*2025-10-21, version 1.0.27*

Awful. Be prepared for support to ghost you when you have issues, despite being a paid subscriber. This game was fun for a while but it’s not cool that they ignore any issues you bring to their attention. Cannot recommend anymore

### 5/5 — Quizup revival

*2026-04-20, version 1.0.35*

Prayers finally answered 🙌🏼
Like the rest, I have been desperately waiting for the team release and gives me such joy daily to go play Sway and engage with the awesome community of trivia heads!

Please expand it to more regions as there are so many unable to get back to their fav app successor.

Please open up a way to interact or socialize circa Quizup feeds

Please allow push notifications whenever someone challenges so as to join them for a realtime session

Please (please please) never deprecate or dismantle this one 👏🏼

### 5/5 — Love it! 😊
