Bad update!

One of my favorite apps forever, but this was the first bad update. It wiped my history clear! Whats with that? I had games that I was working on - games that I could work on without Internet connection - ALL GONE! Liked the feature that saved a game search so you could go back and play different games from the same search - GONE! And somebody swapped the quit button with the "next" button - hope that one is GONE next update. Boo!

Update frozen

With this last update I am unable to open the app. It is still in "waiting" status. I cant even delete the app to re-install. Contacted Sporcle support and everything they had me try hasnt worked to fix the issue. Frustrated.

Quiz history

Where did my quiz history go!?

So good till now....

My biggest complaint, and possibly a deal-breaker -- the print is TINY!!! If you dont fix anything else, PLEASE make the print large enough for those of us over 40!

I play daily

I have to play this app everyday. Its great and addictive and just a great mental workout.

Worse, yet again

Each update has made the UI worse. Childish font which is difficult to read, status updates persist too long, and loading takes longer than it should. Overall poor design.

Better update...

After the disastrous previous update, they "fixed" some of the problems it created - the text size has increased and keeps your most recent search results. I guess the biggest "break" the update caused - wiping out your history/previous best score - cant be fixed. One issue that still exists - the history list still goes by when you FIRST played a quiz, not by when you LAST played a quiz. Pretty sure most people want the history sorted by when quizzes were most recently played. Please fix this. (Youre still one of the best app I have. My ratings are for the updates.)

Wheres my cookies?

I assume thats one of the 3. Great app!

What do coins do?!

Love Sporcle but I have no clue what the coins do. You can buy more coins in-app but I cant find any place to spend them.

Addicted

I love this app! I play every night and there are endless amounts of quizzes on here. Great way to learn/use your brain. The only comment I have--is there a way to sync the app with the website?

Lots of fun

I love Sporcle. I play by myself or with my husband or mother, so its fun for a pretty wide range of interests and ages. My only complaint is that I cant see a way to create quizzes with the app. I have to go to Sporcle.com to create a quiz. That said, Id likely push this up to four stars if that feature was available. Also, a note to the developers: There is a minor glitch when you search for quizzes and then click on one of the results. It opens the result of the one above the one you selected.

No badges

You cant see the badges in the app.

Great but..

I do some quizzes and it works out fine ! But of course especially when I do lyric quizzes they never let me right some of the right words !!!! Like first its all fine but for example I type in the right words sometimes but it doesnt go in ! I gave away 2 stars because it wont let me do something that youre aloud to do and sometimes it gets very very frustrating ! Please fix this problem!

I really like it.

I really like the app, is interesting, fun, awesome, and it puts my brain to think. Two thumbs up!

Love Sporcle

But agree with others the new UI has some issues, including notifications that hang around too long and get in the way.

Pretty addicting

A friend introduced this to me, and after a half an hour I got the app. Ive spent a bit of time on it. I teach history so am fascinated by how much I still miss. Probably a more constructive waste of time than most.

I am obsessed!

Having a mother that suffers from dementia, I am always looking for ways to challenge my brain. This is the best I have found!

Great game!

Theres tons of quizzes on a wide variety of categories. Its great for expanding your knowledge base! I love, love, love this game! I would like to see a tab/sort of the games that havent been played, so theyre quick to get to.

Current version is horrible

They removed the ability to erase instantly an incorrect guess. You now have to backspace your guess and waste a ton of time. Pleas fix!

Update is terrible

I absolutely love Sporcle, but this new update is awful! They took away the "x" in the box where you type your answers, so you have just backspace if you type a wrong answer, which takes too long for quizzes with short timers. They also moved the box where you type your answers to the top of the screen as opposed to next to the keyboard, which is disorienting. Please bring back the old interface, it was much more user friendly!
