About

The Daily Question

Features
Read full description

One question a day. You type the answer โ€” there are no multiple choice options to guess between. Then the part that makes it worth coming back: every question explains itself. Why the answer is the answer, and one detail worth keeping, on all 1,061 questions in the app. TODAY A single question, the same one for everyone, chosen for the day. Answer it, read why, come back tomorrow. Your streak counts the days you showed up, not the days you were right. QUICK PLAY Five questions, mixed topics, about two minutes. TOPICS Eleven of them: science, arts and literature, geography, technology, history, entertainment, food and culture, nature, sport, business, general knowledge. WRITTEN ANSWERS, FAIRLY JUDGED Type what you know. Spelling close to the mark is accepted, a near miss is told apart from a wrong answer, and a near miss never counts against your accuracy. CHECKED BEFORE IT SHIPPED Every explanation was written, then independently checked against sources by a second pass, and repaired where it failed. A wrong answer key is worse than no explanation at all. ALSO - English and French, each written rather than translated - Works offline - Dark mode - VoiceOver and Dynamic Type throughout Subscriptions The Daily Question offers auto-renewable subscriptions for unlimited play. Options include monthly and yearly plans. Price is shown in the app and may vary by region. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings.

About

Tidbits Trivia

Features
Read full description

Tidbits turns the whole of Wikipedia into a trivia game โ€” and unlike most quiz apps, every question is built from real, sourced facts, with a "learn the fact" card after each one so you walk away knowing something new. WHY TIDBITS IS DIFFERENT โ€ข Real facts, not recycled questions. Over 100,000 questions, generated and fact-checked from Wikipedia and Wikidata โ€” and they never repeat until you've seen them all. โ€ข 22 kinds of questions. Not just "which of these is right" โ€” identify the subject from a clue, fill in the blank, put events in order, find the odd one out, pick the biggest or the earliest, and more. The variety keeps you thinking, not pattern-matching. โ€ข Learn as you play. Every question ends with the fact and a link to read more. Miss one? It quietly comes back later, so the game teaches as it tests. WAYS TO PLAY โ€ข Daily Tidbit โ€” the same seven questions for everyone, every day. Build a streak. โ€ข Classic, Time Attack, and Survival modes. โ€ข Eight categories: History, Science, Geography, Arts & Lit, Film & TV, Music, Sports, and a Mixed Bag. โ€ข Pass & Play โ€” hand the phone around for 2โ€“4 player trivia night, no second device needed. โ€ข Create a quiz from ANY topic โ€” type "jazz" or "volcanoes" or your hometown and Tidbits builds a quiz from Wikipedia on the spot. BUILT TO RESPECT YOU โ€ข Works fully offline โ€” the question bank lives on your device. โ€ข No ads. No energy meters. No "pay to keep your streak." No dark patterns. โ€ข The full game is free โ€” every question, every mode. TIDBITS CLUB (optional) Go deeper with an optional membership: Ranked Seasons, a Knowledge Atlas that maps what you know by domain, a Story Archive of every fact you've learned, and multi-week Expeditions. Buy once โ€” you're a member on every device you sign in on. Monthly, yearly, or a one-time Founding Member purchase. The core game always stays free. Tidbits is also on Apple TV and Mac โ€” same game, your streak and favorites at home on each. Tidbits Trivia Terms of Service: https://tidbitstrivia.com/terms.html
