Two answers. One tap. Endless questions. This or That is the simplest way to pass time on a road trip, in a waiting room, or during any five minutes you have to kill. No accounts. No ads. No timers. Just pick which one is bigger, taller, older, or faster — and see if you're right. Every answer comes with the numbers behind it, so you'll actually learn something. Cuba is 27 times bigger than Rhode Island. A peregrine falcon at full dive is faster than a Formula 1 car. The Great Wall of China is older than the Roman Colosseum. Stuff you sort of knew, and stuff you definitely didn't. — WHAT'S INSIDE • Nine categories: Height, Size, Distance from Equator, Speed, Weight, Age, Population, Pop Culture, and Box Office • Over 40,000 unique question combinations • Streak counter that survives when you close the app • Category filters so you can play only the topics you care about • Zero ads, zero tracking, zero interruptions — DESIGNED FOR THE ACTUAL MOMENTS YOU'D USE IT • One-handed play — every tap target is where your thumb already is • Works offline, so tunnels and airplanes don't matter • Dark by default, easy on the eyes at night • Nothing to sign up for, nothing to remember — FREE + OPTIONAL UNLOCK Six categories are free forever, with thousands of questions each.

Is the Empire State Building taller than the Eiffel Tower? (Yes, by a lot.) SIZE — Countries, US states, and lakes by area. Is Alaska bigger than Texas? (More than twice as big.) DISTANCE — Cities and places by distance from the equator. Is Reykjavik farther north than Anchorage? (Yes, barely.) SPEED — Animals and machines by top speed. Is a cheetah faster than a racehorse? (Yes, by about 26 mph.) WEIGHT — Animals and objects by mass. Is a blue whale heavier than the largest known dinosaur? (Yes, roughly double.) AGE — Historical events, inventions, and discoveries. Did cuneiform writing exist before the Great Pyramid? (Yes, by nearly a thousand years.) POPULATION — Countries and cities by number of people. Does Canada have more people than California? (Just barely.) POP CULTURE — Which came first: Nirvana's Nevermind or Pulp Fiction? Which musician is older: Prince or Madonna? Movies, albums, TV, and video games.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: This or That at none against Flashback Trivia's shown. This or That also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Flashback Trivia's advantage is ratings volume (9.3K vs 3) and chart position (#32 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Flashback Trivia sells 26 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and This or That sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
This or That holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flashback Trivia has 9.3K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
