Our Expert Score
Kahoot! remains an absolute powerhouse in the educational tech space, and its iOS app perfectly captures the frantic energy of live trivia. The interface is remarkably bright, accessible, and intuitive. Whether you are a teacher building a comprehensive lesson review or a student just trying to join a room code before the timer hits zero, the user flow is seamless. The app transitions beautifully between acting as a simple button-mashing controller for live games and working as a robust content creation tool where you can build complex quizzes right on your phone.
What makes the app truly shine is its expansion beyond the traditional classroom layout. The single-player flashcard mechanics and practice tests turn a party game framework into an genuinely valuable independent study tool. It eliminates the dry nature of rote memorization by wrapping it in an environment that rewards progression. My only minor gripe is the increasingly aggressive pushes toward premium tier subscriptions for advanced question types, but the core free experience remains incredibly robust and arguably mandatory for any modern interactive classroom environment.

Tips & Walkthrough
Open the app and choose your account type: Teacher, Student, Personal, or Professional. To join a live game, simply tap the 'Enter PIN' button at the bottom center of the screen, type in the game PIN displayed by your host, choose a nickname, and wait for the game to begin.
Tap the 'Create' button at the bottom navigation bar. Add a cover image and title for your game. Tap 'Add question' to insert different formats like Multiple Choice or True/False. Type your question, input the answer choices, and check the box next to the correct answers. Hit 'Save' when you are done to publish or keep it private.
Gameplays
Players look at a shared screen displaying the questions and countdown timer, then use their own devices as controllers to tap the color-and-shape buttons corresponding to the correct answer. Points are awarded based on accuracy and speed, building a competitive leaderboard.
Students can review material independently using interactive flashcards, practice tests, or tailored solo modes. Additionally, alternative multiplayer modes like Tallest Tower or Treasure Hoard change the classic quiz dynamics into strategic mini-games for deeper classroom engagement.

I love Kahoot
Mon Aug 23 2021 kaka,waKahoot! can quickly become a go-to for teachers looking to run quick and lively checks for understanding or exit tickets. Try establishing something like Kahoot! Fridays for quick review. If you don't have time to make quizzes, search millions of public Kahoots to play or remix. Go beyond memorization of facts and allow Kahoot! to introduce scenario questions/prompts with multiple decisions; stimulate conversation from the results. Insert slides between questions to introduce additional information, allowing Kahoot! to become a content-delivery platform. Quiz templates make it really easy to build a thoughtful learning experience that does more than solicit rapid-fire recall. Build a "collection" of quizzes and share the collection with students. The asynchronous features are great for independent review and distance learning. Don't forget professional development. Use the Team mode to pose pedagogical questions and promote food-for-thought discussions among colleagues and cohorts. Use Kahoot! to break the ice at the beginning of the school year or bond with members of the learning community.
Improvements
Sun Feb 08 2026 Brianmartinez561Hello I used to play Kahoot! And I noticed it can improve firstly removetheislands thing because we literally have the apps so there is no use for that secondly bring back the OG kahoot we loved and enjoyed and REMOVE THE PURCHASES I don’t really want to pay for more features a lot of people don’t too and I could see some features from blooket and other quiz games like you know you got to make more people play and make it easy to sign up and remove the time limit thing and add so much more features from the OG kahoot and remove the new quiz stuff not the new types I mean like bring back the OG question music when you are answering a question and bring back the old correct and wrong answer sound effects and at least add a story mode too and a shop too and other features. Thank you for your time. P S what is the free version and add more people to lobbies and at least add a public lobby instead of the pins like usual and listen to feedback too even though you do thanks please add these thanks again
EPIICCC but needs a few changes
Sat Nov 09 2019 Sarah C. Im a kid no kinnapingThis game is epic I’m not saying anything like I hate it I’m just saying there is a few problems that are kind of taking the fun out of the game 1. problem when you put in an intro song it doesn’t show up unless you’re on the challenge its a little annoying but I didn’t take that much fun out of it I still got to play! 2. this is not really a problem it’s just that I would like to make it so then you can play around the world like for example you didn’t have to get 100 friends and make them come to your house just so that you can play Kahoot! Maybe can you make it so that you can have multiplayer but with random people around the world? 3. I am on an Apple iPad but it’s crashing even know I’m not on anything else and I have the best Internet it doesn’t make sense! And same for the other person it just deleted it self! But this time it did work to reinstall it. This is very confusing but I still love the idea of Kahoot!

Tue Feb 14 2023 I❤️ Disneyhello. i understand that you need to make money, but do you think charging people to make a kahoot the best option? so many of us either aren’t paid because we are in high school or middle school, or don’t have enough money because we have to spend money on other things to survive or we are underpaid or both. I am speaking out for all of the teachers, the families, the students who don’t have the money to spend on this. Money isn’t life, money is honestly made up. It is created to put value on other things. And money is losing its value. We already have to pay for quizlet. now we have to pay for this?? AND YOU ALLOW us to make a kahoot, to HELP US LEARN AND STUDY, and then an hour later when we our finished, we can’t “post” it because we don’t have the stupid plan that you want us to have. PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING RIGHT NOW AND ARE RELYING ON DOING GOOD IN SCHOOL TO PAY FOR COLLEGE AND/OR GRADUATING SO THEY CAN GET A JOB TO PAY THE BARE MINIMUM. and please do not say “the reason why you can’t publish your kahoot is because you don’t have this certain plan that you need to have.” I know i don’t have that plan because I can’t afford it. so thank you for taking away my last study option, i greatly appreciate it.
Served the purpose but…
Wed Dec 10 2025 sahmomof9My daughter wanted Kahoot, because she told me she needed it for something she was working on. It served the purpose, which is why I gave it two stars. Then she did not need it anymore. I went to cancel our membership. I tried. And tried. And tried. Every way I could. But there was no feature that directly said “if you need to cancel, click this button”, or anything like that. The contact form had irrelevant questions, some of which I had no answer for. So I couldn’t submit it. I tried to find some other way to get in touch, or to cancel, but I just went around and around. There was no one to help me, not even AI customer service! After over half an hour of fooling with this unhelpful site, I gave up. I stopped the automatic payments. I couldn’t think of anything else to do! And now I’m getting repeated emails about how my card has been declined, and to add some other form of payment! Take the hint already! We no longer need this site. All we wanted to do was unsubscribe. But it was impossible. So I suppose we’ll get emails we can’t even respond to, forever and ever. Unbelievable.
Poorly designed
Wed May 05 2021 StanleyB95I’m an educator and I’ve repeatedly tried to make Kahoot work for my classes. They have strict character limits that make it unusable for more complex questions/answers. Thankfully, they now have a work-around that allows you to import slides. So this morning, I spent several hours of my precious time setting up a kahoot with imported slides. After several hours of work to set it up (precious hours of an overworked, underpaid educator’s time, time that I could have used grading, preparing other lessons, etc., time that I will NEVER GET BACK), it wouldn’t let me publish the kahoot without entering my credit card information. They wanted me to authorize a $180 charge on my credit card (after the 7-day “free trial”) just to use the quiz game I had already spent hours creating. I am LIVID. I know these marketing techniques are common, but using them on overworked, underpaid teachers (especially during a pandemic) is just plain cruel and disrespectful They shouldn’t have allowed me to import my slides and go through all that effort. And they really need to get rid of the character limits. (People have been asking them to do so for years, but I guess this would undermine their scheme).
Forced to pay
Fri Jan 22 2021 The_Tailor28I’ve been using Kahoot! for so long, I didn’t expect this to happen. But now I have to pay to use features that used to be free, and I find this very annoying because I do not want to pay for this app. Please give back some feature to the free users please!! 1. I feel like the standard one that we have to buy should be free, because that is what Kahoot! used to be like before you started charging us for basic things 2. There was also a problem when I was trying to save a game I made, it kept saying that there was a feature I used that I needed to pay for, but I went through the quiz and all the features I used were the basic ones, (which is not that many now😒). Now I can’t even save it without upgrading to standard. I want to love this app, and I used too. But now that I have to pay for almost everything, I don’t want to use it anymore. Please consider making the standard plan free for users! I know many people would be happy! -The_Tailor28
Sketchy.
Tue Jan 03 2023 IcecreamandcakeAfter being beta testers for Poio years ago, my kids wanted to try the other Kahoot games (like the math ones, chess, etc). We loved the trials and paid for the service for a while. When Poio was released to the public, we were given the chance to own the game for free as previous testers but decided to purchase it full price to support the creators. Everything was going well. During a financial bind, we had to stop our Kahoot subscription for a few months. When we decided to reactive it, purchased through Apple’s store like before, the Kahoot software kept telling us we didn’t have a subscription, even on the website and would not let us use the supposed family plan on any of our devices. We tried all of the troubleshooting and reached out to customer service. They were able to get one single app working on one device but none of the other apps would recognize our purchase nor allow us to use the family plan on other devices. Customer service said they would look into it and would be in touch. Three months of paying for a subscription we couldn’t use ($30+ for one game), and not a single word again from customer service nor any offer to recomp the expenses, we finally opened a ticket with Apple and got our money refunded. Sorely disappointed in the lack of attention to a loyal customer. Kids also sorely disappointed they can’t play their favorite games. I don’t dare try to make another subscription purchase with a different device in case this happens again.
