First, make and publish a quiz
Write questions and answers separated by TABs. You can also have an AI write it from a topic or a news story with “Make a quiz with AI” on QuizTXT. See the QuizTXT writing guide for the format.
Question[TAB]Answer
Question[TAB]Answer[TAB]Accepted answerIf you used AI, paste the text on the “Make a quiz with AI” screen. For a text file, load it with “Upload a file”. Then try the quiz.
Solve it and check that answer checking, the second try and the score messages work. The publish button appears when you get every question right. If a correct answer is marked wrong, fix the answers in the text.
When you are done checking, press “Publish and get a link”. The quiz gets its own link.

If you keep the quiz text, you can publish it again at any time (it gets a new link). Because quizzes disappear after 24 hours, they are best for playing on the same day, not for print or other long-term use.
Post on social media
Post the link with a line such as “How many can you get?” or “Tell me if you get them all!”.

When players post their score with “Copy result”, people who see the post can take the same quiz. Add hashtags to the shared text with ++# to make everyone’s results easy to find.
Send by message
Send the link to friends, family or people at a get-together by message app or email. It works well for a quiz about the guest at a birthday or farewell party, or a quiz about a trip you took together.
To play on the spot, send the link to the group, or show a QR code of the link on your phone for people to scan. Comparing scores makes it more fun. Quizzes disappear 24 hours after publishing, so publish on the day of the event.
Sharing results
When a quiz is opened from its published link, a “Copy result” button appears after scoring. Press it to copy text like the following, then paste it into social media or a message.
- The quiz title appears in quotation marks, followed by the score. You can add a call to action and hashtags with ++#.
- The second line is the quiz’s published link, so anyone who sees it can take the same quiz right away.
- The text follows the language of the screen (English or Japanese).
- The operator does not record shared scores.
