Although the idea of taking a quiz may bring up memories of annoying pop quizzes back in high school, consider this: Thanks to social media and sites like BuzzFeed, online quizzes are enormously popular and a great way to engage students, potential customers, and really any audience. So why not harness their power and learn how to make your own interactive quiz app?
Whatever your industry — whether education, healthcare, or tech — quiz apps are engaging, informative, easy to use, and most important, entertaining for you and your audience.
To make your own quiz app, follow these three steps.

1. Identify the purpose of each quiz
Ask yourself what you’d like your quizzes to do for you and your workplace. Will it be a fun office onboarding activity? Are you writing quizzes to help your colleagues learn more about each other and the history of the company? If you’re a teacher, maybe the app includes timed quizzes for you to gauge your students’ knowledge midway through the school year.
Once you can pinpoint exactly what your quiz should accomplish, you can focus on next steps — like its design and formatting.
2. Choose the question format
The type of questions you choose for your quiz determine how engaging and interactive it is. To choose the best question types for your quiz, it’s important to complete step one to understand the purpose of your quiz.
Let’s illustrate this using our earlier examples. If you’re creating quizzes for your company’s new hire orientation, you’d probably choose a less-challenging question type, like true or false questions or a fun matching option.
On the other hand, if you’re creating a quiz app for students, multiple-choice questions may be more difficult to answer than true or false ones, so you’d probably choose the former to better test their knowledge of the subject matter.
With so many types of questions to choose from — true or false, fill in the blank, or Likert scales with multiple options — you’re bound to find a question type (or a combination of various ones) that works best for your specific quizzes.
3. Choose a quiz app builder
Now that you have your quiz questions, you need to build the app to share them. The idea of creating your own quiz app — especially a professional-looking one — may seem overwhelming, even if you’re a software developer. And if you’re not, the thought is even more daunting.
Fortunately, with no-code online app builders, it’s easy to make your own quiz app. Many helpful app builders on the market can bring your quiz app vision to life. They’re simple to use, comparable in value and price, and provide great customer support. Here are a few options.
