### 4/5 — Literally one of my favorite games,

*2026-08-29, version 4.9.11*

God tier game,
but $15 a month to play more games is insane

### 3/5 — Can’t connect by QR on friends Roku devices

*2026-07-11, version 4.9.8*

I pay $13/month for this app I love it. However, when I scan the QR code to play on a friend’s Roku or smart tv it prompts me to pay again! It logs me in and knows who I am and says Member since: yada yada and all that jazz but doesn’t let me play at my friend’s places without begging for my credit card digits. Bogus 🗣️ Fix it. Thank you.

### 4/5 — More song genre’s

*2026-01-29, version 4.9.2*

I feel like folk would be a good category to add and R&B in the song quiz!

### 2/5 — We love it but it also doesn’t work

*2025-12-21, version 4.9.2*

So you pay $13 a month to accidentally switch apps to IMessage and check your texts on your Iphone and then not be able to reconnect back into a game that you’ve been playing with a group of people for the past 30 minutes. Super sucks and I’m canceling my subscription.

### 3/5 — fun but has issues

*2025-12-11, version 4.9.2*

every single time you check your notifications or if your phone turns it disconnects you from the game and you can’t rejoin
please fix this

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2025-02-15, version 4.3*

This is definitely not worth paying for.  Very glitchy, crashes often, and there’s no sound.  Game play is rushed and very buggy.  Some games, like wheel of fortune, can’t even be played in the app and must be playing in an external browser. It has potential but I wouldn’t even consider paying for it as-is

### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work

*2024-10-28, version 4.0.2*

My friend used to really like this app so she shared it with us. We all downloaded it and gave it access to our contacts. We were able to friend each other, but not call each other. Very disappointed that an app that wanted all my personal info couldn’t even be bothered to work.

### 1/5 — No longer love this game

*2024-10-20, version 4.0.2*

Why did you change it ? You used to be able to play random people, now you can only play friends. This is no longer my favorite game

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-05-20, version 3.7.6*

Was an amazing game BEFORE you added the stupid ridiculous video multiplayer
Worst idea ever

### 1/5 — Bring Original App Back

*2024-03-20, version 3.7.0*

The original Song Quiz was amazing. This replacement Face Off garbage is exactly that. Garbage. You have to access your camera and contacts and good luck then even being able to play. The original app was so simple and so fun and didn’t need to invade our privacy to be able to use. Such a shame that y’all ruined such a fun app and turned it into this.

### 1/5 — Please bring back Song Quiz

*2024-03-10, version 3.6.1*

Old version was our favorite game. This new version is horrible. Horrible

### 1/5 — Atrocious

*2024-03-05, version 3.6.1*

Absolutely terrible developers took a very simple and fun app and found a way to ruin it. Don’t water your time downloading this.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2024-02-16, version 3.6.0*

I don’t like playing face-to-face I like playing the old song quiz where we didn’t have to see each other and I wish there was two options if you want to play face-to-face or if you want to play alone where you don’t have against somebody

### 1/5 — Downhill

*2023-12-09, version 3.4*

The fact that you cannot play song quiz on one phone anymore has made this app absolutely terrible.

### 4/5 — The Game is fun but!!

*2023-12-02, version 3.3.1*

I think the game is really fun it’s entertaining, but they need to add more songs to their venue. The same songs play repeatedly and after a while, you get to memorize them and my opponent and I find it noncompetitive the same songs continue to play. Boom.

### 3/5 — Newer music

*2023-10-02, version 3.3*

This app is great but you need to add music that’s newer than 2010

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — wouldn’t let us play

*2026-08-18, version 4.9.11*

you have to pay 19 dollars a month for a game that wouldnt even let us play guess the emoji this was such a awful app

### 1/5 — Too Expensive

*2026-07-17, version 4.9.8*

I downloaded it and was really interested, but $13 per month is toooooo expensive. Create some levels or just lower the price. I would be willing to pay, but wouldn’t use it enough to facilitate that price.

### 1/5 — Deceptive subscriptions

*2026-07-11, version 4.9.8*

The subscription is required and not visible in the app and it does not direct you to the subscription management page. The only way I got there was to click on reporting an issue. Unfortunately this means I had to pay for the subscription after the trial. This is deceptive and should be easier to find from the app. Hopefully this helps other users.

### 1/5 — Charge even after cancellation

*2026-07-01, version 4.9.7*

Horrible to kept getting charges

### 1/5 — It looks good

*2026-04-19, version 4.9.5*

This game looks awesome but it sucks!!! Poor quality and not many games( there is like 5)!!! Not for 12.99 a month I would pay 0 to play this!!! And you can only play with like 3 people!!!🤮😢

### 1/5 — game didn’t even work

*2025-10-05, version 4.8.3*

i couldn’t even play this game because it wasn’t working. the music wouldn’t play and when i was doing the first part to try it, it wouldn’t even pick up that i was talking even with my microphone on. wish i was able to play it and it work but sadly it won’t work. oh well.

### 1/5 — Terrible bug

*2025-07-05, version 4.3*

Do you guys even test before pushing things out? 

I signed up, did the demo tutorial, and then it acts like my account isn’t created. It just circled me right back to creating an account (entering my number, name, etc) and doing the demo again.

Also, you should be able to play multiplayer from one phone locally, not have to connect it to others, that’s stupid.

### 1/5 — BRING BACK THE OLD SONG QUIZ!!

*2025-05-28, version 4.3*

The game was fun all you did was pick a decade and then listen to some random part of a song it was simple and fun

### 1/5 — No options

*2025-01-28, version 4.1*

Uh, there’s fewer than ten options for music genres. There isn’t even a 90s one. Deleting.

### 1/5 — Can’t play

*2024-12-17, version 4.1*

Can not add my son with an android phone. Sent the link to him, downloaded and we’re not friends and there isn’t anywhere to actually add friends in the game other than sending an obviously broken link.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-08-10, version 4.9.10*

There is so many fun games for my entire family to play and it’s so nice to do something outside of just watching tv together!! Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Best games for an after party

*2026-07-16, version 4.9.8*

Me and my friends ended up playing their games 2 hours straight, and now we have game nights just to play Song Quiz

### 5/5 — Love their new games

*2026-07-14, version 4.9.8*

The geography game Spot On and Sketchy are so fun. Great for game night without board games

### 5/5 — I love the game

*2024-12-11*

Hello, this is Kevin Brinckman and I was wondering if you could add the prices right and other voice games into this game I love there to be more games and also when you challenge friends I would like there to be more points and also could you add multiple-choice song, quiz game and also Could you also add categories like classic rock and other music for when we challenge people that would be sweet thank you

### 5/5 — Song quiz not working

*2023-05-07, version 3.1.2*

The song quiz isn’t working for me and my friend. We were trying everything and it didn’t work.

### 5/5 — Loved this!

*2023-04-11, version 3.1.0*

So much that my husband and I sat in opposite rooms just to play together lol!

### 5/5 — New version is terrible!!!

*2022-10-28*

We have LOVED this app, it has seriously been our saving grace on long road trips… our family has such a fun time guessing the songs and it gets so competitive! 

But with the new version you have to send an invite you can’t play with someone who’s sitting right next to you and this is SO inconvenient. So sad we can’t play this on road trips now 😭💔

### 5/5 — Enjoying this!

*2022-10-09, version 3.0.1*

Being able to hangout with family and friends and play games together has definitely brought us closer together! The app feels like it has a lot to grow but I already have some pretty nice memories from it.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2022-04-16, version 2.20*

So glad I randomly found this name that time game. No annoying ads. Super addicting! Made the end of road trip so much better. Will definitely recommend to friends!

### 5/5 — Love the game...a few issues though

*2021-06-20*

I love the game, but there are a few problems with it though that I would like to address. These include:
1. The sound design—the sound is very poor quality and needs to be fixed.
2. First starting the game—when the player starts the game, they have to spell out their name, I shouldn’t have to do that.
The last problem has to do with sound design/quality.
3. Loudness of the game—the loudness of the game is poor and also needs to be fixed. (See #1 above). Overall, I love this game.
