Live Trivia

Answer fast. Speed matters.

Live Trivia is the speed-based quiz game built for big-screen play. The host shows a question with multiple-choice options on the screen. Players tap their answer on their phone. Fastest correct answer earns the most points. A leaderboard updates after every question. No app to download, no accounts to create. Use our built-in question packs (general, pop culture, science, history) or upload your own for company trivia, classroom review, or event branding.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from Kahoot?

Same core mechanic (live trivia with phones, big-screen leaderboard, speed-based scoring), but ImprovApp does not require player accounts and the Host Plan is $9/mo flat versus Kahoot Business at $19/user/mo. Plus you can mix Trivia with our other game types in one session.

Can I write my own questions?

Yes. The Host Plan includes custom content packs. Write your own questions, organize them into rounds, and reuse across sessions.

How is scoring calculated?

Each question is worth up to 1000 points. Correct answers earn full points; partial points scale down with response time. Wrong answers earn zero.

Is there a time limit per question?

Default is 15 seconds. The host can set 10, 20, or 30 seconds per question depending on difficulty.
