### 3/5 — Get It Right…

*2021-07-17, version 4.0*

It wasn’t “Martin” Sheen with Jon Cryer in the movie ‘Hot Shots’ in ‘91…it was Charlie.

### 4/5 — Compete! Compete!

*2020-10-05, version 4.0*

Love this game!  Sometimes I know almost all of them. Sometimes I only get one or two. I’m learning. Most of all I love to compete against myself and I’m the only one answering!

### 4/5 — Only needs some clarification of answers and not to endure multiple levels

*2020-05-02, version 4.0*

Knowledge builder is wonderful but users need info on right answer to truly build knowledge. This program doesn’t build knowledge but is fun.

### 5/5 — Alexandra

*2020-04-05, version 4.0*

Great and fun learnt a lot and referred it to many who really enjoy it thank you

### 5/5 — Great mind sharpener!

*2020-03-06, version 3.0*

Makes for a challenging 10 min break from work!

### 5/5 — Alway learning

*2020-01-17, version 3.0*

I really love this app it help me gain knowledge I didn’t know.
Yes I do get answers wrong but this also give me the knowledge 
of learning and hopefully remembering.

### 5/5 — Fun, and helps one get smarter!

*2019-12-18, version 3.0*

I enjoy this quiz, playing it many times each week. If you do well, then the numerous categories will not dissuade you from moving on...but if you fail often you will not want to tell your friends about it! Ergo...my report here!

### 5/5 — My favorite trivia game

*2019-11-22, version 3.0*

I love this game and have played it for some time now.  Maybe 250 games?  It’s challenging but no too esoteric.  I think I’m starting to see a few repeats from earlier on, but that was bound to happen, though it still keeps me entertained and best of all, no ads!  Thanks!

### 5/5 — The Best

*2019-04-29, version 3.0*

Out of all the trivia-type apps, Knowledge+ stands alone. It is well written, broad in scope, and truly challenging. Also, being able to see your true stats is a plus, and the Strengths and Weaknesses part is great for improving in specific subjects. Not for the academic wimp, but it’ll help you become less of one—- I play Knowledge + far more than any other game or app.

### 5/5 — Pleasant surprise

*2018-11-14, version 3.0*

Didnt expect much but pleasantly surprised, the question are varied, some are hard but always interesting. I wonder how or where they get so many questions, never had the same twice for now andI play regularly.

### 5/5 — Great IQ app

*2018-10-18, version 3.0*

I love this app....I like how it combines obscure facts with obvious ones...past and present....It keeps me on my toes and does a good job testing knowledge

### 3/5 — Enjoyed the previous version more

*2018-03-29, version 3.0*

I have had this app for a few years. I always enjoyed playing it, until several months ago when the questions (even the lower level ones)  suddenly became much more obscure and difficult.
With the previous version, at least I stood a fighting chance at putting together a good score. Now, I seldom score above 50%.

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2018-01-31, version 3.0*

Love love love this app. Can’t say enough good things about it. Great for my kids too with the different levels!

### 4/5 — Fun trivia

*2017-12-14, version 3.0*

This is a nice little challenge to your memory.  They seem to think sport questions are very easy, which is funny.  It has a nice variety of questions, and they change them reasonably often.  I wonder why they took out the national statistics.  I thought that was kind of fun.

### 5/5 — Great app for so many reasons

*2017-12-02, version 3.0*

I love challenging quizzes that incorporate the ability to deduce answers unknown by using hints that are found within the questions. This is really much more thought out and related to IQ testing than most trivia type apps. I actually purchased the IQ app first from this company before being aware of this app. I especially enjoy the vast variety of easy to very difficult referenced knowledge that is excellent for anyone who is looking for something to learn from and enjoy the whole process.

### 5/5 — General knowlege

*2017-09-18, version 3.0*

Excellent trivia app. No annoying ads

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2017-09-14, version 3.0*

Fantastic App, use it everyday!

### 5/5 — Update please

*2017-05-05, version 2.8*

My family and I love this game/trainer but now when we open it a message pops up stating that it will not work with future versions of IOS. Please update it so we will be able to enjoy it now and in the future.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Lost the sound

*2018-03-03, version 3.0*

This app used to be fun but it no longer has any sound so you can’t tell when your time is running out. This happened to me three years ago when I had the app on my iPad. I thought they would have for cedar it by now but I guess not.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2016-10-21, version 2.8*

Downloaded this for my iPad (4th gen). I get through 3 lessons, and then the app crashes on the 4th. I have deleted and reinstalled twice, deleted my profile twice and as long as I keep doing that, it works - for 3 lessons.

### 1/5 — No good

*2016-05-17, version 2.8*

This game is not educational, it is a brain wash, for the left, Far Left.

### 1/5 — Paid App with Ads

*2014-02-28, version 2.7*

Don't even think about buying this app. Paid for it but it still has ads. Disgraceful.

### 1/5 — Interesting Trivia; Unrewarding Experience

*2013-02-07, version 2.7*

The trivia is interesting, but upon finishing each set of ten questions all you get is a lame response no matter how good or bad your performance was; sometimes it's not even accurate as in "5 out of 5 ain't Bad!" when the score says that only 4 were correct. The most annoying is: "you're ready to know the ultimate answer--42". Which is just nonsense. Or "that's all and thanks for the fish" when you get 8 correct and your highest score ever. they refer to Native Americans as "Indians". They incorrectly used the word "their" when it should have been "they're"!
Like I said, it's unrewarding, but I still play it. Not worth $5 though.

I have at least three examples a took a screen shot of that show misuse/misspelled words

### 1/5 — Disappointing!  What is everyone thinking?

*2012-01-24, version 2.4*

Before buying i read all the great reviews and impressed with all the comments for this app but once I decided to buy it, I really wish I would of keep searching for other trivia games.   I do not recommend because the graphics are mediocre and the questions only Harvard scholars and librarian monks would know the answers. Just uninteresting, useless knowledge. I would have much more fun opening a dictionary than playing with this app. Sorry knowledge trainer but it was a waste of my money!

### 1/5 — Doesn't even give me time to read the

*2011-12-22, version 2.4*

This app is basically guessing game it has no educational value so don't bother downloading it! Just a bunch of useless crap no one gives a shot about in hard to understand language! Worth $.99 not 4.99

### 1/5 — Potentially great

*2011-09-07, version 1.11*

I really enjoy this app, and it will be 5 stars, once a few issues are ironed out.
1) Occasional incorrect answers. As others have mentioned, some answers are flat-out wrong while others are misleading. Ex: "What is the largest lake in the world?" Both Lake Baikal and Superior are choices, and both are right given the wording of the question. Still, Superior is the one they want. Annoying to no end.
2) The comments between questions and after games are reaaaaalllly annoying.
3) Seemingly arbitrary assignment of difficulty outside of the easiest rank. Some of the 2nd rank questions are harder than the 5th ranked questions. Many of the 5th rank questions seem as easy as the 1st rank.
4) Non-timed mode is needed! The timer is fun, but sometimes I'd like to play with friends or have a laid back game. For $5, this should be an option.

These limitations aside, this is still the best trivia app on the store, and I can't wait to change this to a 5-star review!

### 1/5 — US bias

*2010-12-18, version 1.0*

Despite the blurb for this app stating that it will ask you questions based on your location, whether in the US or UK, the majority are asked from an American perspective or are about America laws, culture etc. The blurb is clearly a lie and the app will be of little interest to people outside of the States. This, coupled with the price tag, has left me very disappointed.

### 2/5 — Boo

*2017-02-28, version 2.8*

Apps not pushing wrong answers to improve knowledge

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2026-06-19, version 4.2.1*

I have been playing this for years.  I love that it tallies your strengths and weaknesses.  I also enjoy the new feature of giving explanations for the answers.  And the questions themselves are a breath of fresh air in that they often explore topics that aren’t underrepresented in most trivia games. 

As far as I’m concerned, this is the best trivia app available.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2026-05-03, version 4.2.1*

I’ve used this app for many years.  It remains my go to app for trivia. Small contribution = no ads. Love it!

### 5/5 — Covered the water front with good questions!

*2024-03-13, version 4.0*

I’m going to rest on my laurels!

### 5/5 — Danger this is addictive

*2024-03-07, version 4.0*

This is one of the best games ever devised. It’s great fun, it’s challenging and it’s informative!

But most importantly to show the measure of liking this game you must know that this game is addictive.

### 5/5 — Donny D

*2020-10-05, version 4.0*

Keeps you sharp. May come in handy for Jeopardy , or a trivia party. Peace!

### 5/5 — Challenging Game

*2020-08-25, version 4.0*

The only problem is we need the answers to 
the questions we get wrong

### 5/5 — Trivia

*2020-08-03, version 4.0*

I love to test my knowledge of trivia.  This is a good game to do that with.

### 5/5 — Best game

*2020-05-13, version 4.0*

I’ve had this game for years.     Play it all the time I think  I got a 9/10 once.  Never a 10 and I play daily.     No ads.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-05-01, version 4.0*

Very good great one of the best to shape your mind!

### 5/5 — Knowledge trainer

*2020-04-12, version 4.0*
