App Store Editors’ Notes

Great app

It’s a great app I love playing it, but there are some changes that need to be made. I don’t know if this is just me, but I’m not able to see who is following me. It’s frustrating because I just want to see it. I don’t know if that is just me though. I also want to be able to block players. I have gotten some messages from random people and they won’t stop texting me. I wish that there is some way to prevent them from talking to me. Also, I love that you added the comment feature, as long as everyone is being nice to each other then it is really fun to have conversations with new people. I also like the feature that you almost made it educational instagram, it’s fun to be able to scroll on your phone also knowing that it is not just brainrot and memes. I also enjoy that you can make stories about questions you have answerd. I also love that fact that you guys take the time to respond to most of your comments. It just shows that you respect and care about your audience. I also respect that you listen to the people and make changes about what they say. Overall this is my favorite app and I really enjoy playing it. Thank you for listening and hopefully considering my ideas. Have a good day!

Great Game, WAY too many ads

I love this game, I have always loved this game. I used to play it a really long time ago and recently just picked it up again, it’s just as I remember, with some fun new aspects. I love the fast match, makes it easy to just keep playing. I like the tournaments. They also added a trivia “TikTok” where you scroll and answer questions for coins (unnecessary, but fun I guess). I do love this game, however the gameplay to ad ratio is INSANE. Every time you get a question wrong, thirty second ad. Every time you finish a match (win or lose), fifty second ad. Advertisements surrounding the screen, on the top and bottom, during every game. Every possible trivia question accompanied by “watch an ad to have an advantage” pop up that also halts gameplay. I understand ads, keeps games this awesome free, but there has got to be a limit. Sometimes it’s honestly a deterrent; is this game worth the crazy amount of interruptions that drain my battery? I think that cutting back on ads, maybe just getting rid of the ad after EVERY wrong answer would suffice, would allow the game to be even more enjoyable. Do download this game if you don’t care about that many ads, it really is a great game if you can look past them. However, how hot my (new) phone got just by the amount of ads in 30 minutes of playing might be a reason not to download. (Not to mention I get very awkward very sexual ads; KIDS play these games….)

Ruined their own app

Trivia Crack would be a 5-star game if it weren’t for the insufferable ads that pop up on the screen every 5 seconds. The ads ruin the game for me. Every time I get a question wrong or go to play a mini game, I have to sit through a long ad that I’ve seen a million times before. I never leave reviews but I found the advertisements on this game to be so frustrating that I came here to leave my first review today. When you go to click the X to exit out of an ad, a pop up comes up taking you to the app store download page for that ad. I have to “X out” of their ads 3 times before it actually goes away. I cant even stand being on Trivia Crack for more than 1 minute now. At this point, I spend more time watching ads than I do actually playing the game. The concept of this app is great and it used to be super fun to play, but the ads have completely taken over the app now. I would much rather spend time playing other similar apps than this simply for that reason. It’s very unfortunate because I did used to love to this game, but again, can not handle the insane pop ups and unskippable ads. I’ve spent the last year or so deleting and reinstalling Trivia Crack, each time forgetting how bad the ads really were, but I think this time I will be deleting it permanently and looking for a trivia app or something similar without any of the ads. I’m sure there are better apps out there. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste your time downloading this game.

Great Game!! Inconvenient Ads :/

I understand the game needs ads to fund making new features and to play the people that produce it. Trust me, I want the people who made this game to make all the money they worked so hard for and more, however, there are so many ads that pop up in the middle of you playing. One of the biggest issues is that I'll answer a question and an ad will pop up!! I just want to play uninterrupted. If the adds only happened once you lost I think this would be a lot better. To clarify, I'm not opposed to ads at all. In fact, I'd be willing to watch ads for advantages like coins, "right answers", or even just hearts (although Imm at a surplus at the moment and don't need more). Another of the biggest problems for me is that sometimes when I press " watch an ad to get another chance" and I actually WILLINGLY sit there and watch an ad, IT DOESNT GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE!! I'm sure this is a glitch, but its one that makes me want to stop playing. I love this game. Ive played it off and on for years, same with my mom and a few other family relatives, but with the constant bombardment of ads and the annoying glitches, I can't imagine my interest will be kept. Please fix these issues!! I want to keep playing this game! Again I commend everyone who's worked on this game and I sincerely hope it lasts a long time.

Great game…waaaay to many advertisements

I love playing this game. I actually purchased the full version which you would think would eliminate ads. If anything they got worse. Every single thing you do pops up an ad (if not two) in between each game. If I paid for it I shouldn’t have to endure all of these ads trying to sell me more upgrades, etc. or at least give me the option to disable them. It is ridiculous and I want my money back. Shame on you Etermax for getting people to pay for this and still bombard us with advertisements. Don’t believe me? Keep reading the reviews here on the App Store. You will see this complaint all the way back three + years…they don’t care about you. The very few times that they reply to a complaint on the App Store, they use the same cut and paste response telling you to email their support to tell them your problem. Etermax, why can’t you answer our questions and complaints here on the App Store reviews? Everyone should be able to see your lame explaination. You want us to email you because you don’t want potential new players to see your answer about the ads you force us to endure throughout the games. Whatever executive at Etermax made the decision to blast us with ads should be fired for ruining a great game solely for the purpose of fattening the paychecks of him/herself and those who sit on the board. Do your self a favor people of planet earth…do NOT pay for this game! Shame. Shame. Shame.

The amount of ads is beyond ANNOYING!

Overall this game is extremely fun and very informative. If you like trivia, this game is for you! I enjoy the variety of questions for each category and the challenges the game has to offer. This app would’ve gotten 5 stars from me had it not been for the ads popping up every 2.2 seconds. Also, if you run out of lives, after every game played this obnoxious tab pops up and says “buy more lives”!!! I don’t want to. I said no. I shouldn’t have to close the tab requesting money for lives after every game played. I’m aware that I’m out of lives, I just used them all. Quit asking for money every 5 seconds. You know, this would be a great app if you’d just remove HALF OF THE ADS and make it more about being an entertaining trivia game for people all over the world rather than a money making machine. Don’t you make enough money as is or do y’all just insist on being greedy? I get it, ads bring in money. So what? Doesn’t need to be overdone. Also, the price for purchasing the app to get rid of the obnoxious amount of ads is a little overpriced in my opinion. Especially for what the game has to offer. Like I said, the game itself is 5/5 stars but the ads make it 1/5 in my book. So, if you’re into trivia games and a buttload of obnoxious ads I’d download this game and have a blast!

1/2 the time waiting!!

I gotta say that if you love ads, lots and LOTS of ads, then you are going to absolutely soil your under shorts waiting to play this game. If you get a question wrong, there’s an ad. If you get a question correct, there’s an ad. If you are the loser in any contest, there’s an ad. If you are the winner, there’s an ad. Download this game and I swear that for the time you are logged on to it, you will spend at least 1/2 that time waiting for ads to complete. Maybe if I changed my perspective so I started seeing the ads as gameplay and the trivia questions as small, interruptive annoyances, perhaps then I wouldn’t mind so much, but since I downloaded Trivia Crack because I like to play games involving trivia, I’m unable to reverse my perspective in this way. I understand Etermax is a business and, thus, must turn a profit, but I don’t understand how the powers that be consider such an extraordinarily high amount of ad placement between every loading screen, every response to a question (right or wrong), and after every multiplayer contest like Survival (win or lose) to be a path to long-term users. I do spend money on this game. Not much, but some. Yet eventually, no matter how much I build up my mastery level, one day, SOON, an ad will pop up, push me to the brink, and I’ll double click, swipe right, and delete the game. That time is approaching. Too bad Quiz Up has been discontinued...... ☹️

Concerning lack of safety and privacy features

The trivia is cool and all but I’m very concerned about the lack of overall safety and moderation on Trivia Crack, especially given how kid-friendly the app’s design and marketing are. There are several features that make this app unsafe for minors. Users can post suggestive “stories” that clearly hint at sexual content or sending nudes, and these appear to be largely unmoderated. Live streams also allow users to show their faces with minimal oversight. While the report stream feature is helpful and appreciated, it does not make up for the broader lack of protections elsewhere in the app. One major issue is the absence of an easy, clear way to report suspicious or harmful accounts outside of streams. Anyone can message you without your permission, and private messages allow photo sharing — something that feels completely unnecessary for a trivia game and creates serious safety risks. I also had a personal experience where an older man messaged and flirted with me even though I clearly stated that I was underage. This is extremely concerning and shows how easily predators could use this app to target and groom minors. For an app that presents itself as fun, harmless, and suitable for younger users, these gaps in safety are unacceptable. Trivia Crack needs stronger moderation, clearer reporting tools across the entire app, and better privacy controls to truly protect its users.
