Create a Simple Quiz App With No Coding

Building apps once required deep programming knowledge. If you didn’t know Java, Swift, or Flutter, your dream of publishing an app usually stayed just that—a dream.

But times have changed. Thanks to no-code platforms, anyone can build a mobile app—even a quiz app—without touching a single line of code.

In this blog, I’ll walk you through the complete process of creating a simple quiz app without coding, from choosing a platform to customizing design, adding questions, and even publishing on Google Play or the App Store.

By the end, you’ll have the knowledge (and confidence) to launch your very own interactive quiz app.

Why Build a Quiz App?

Before we dive into the steps, let’s answer the big question: Why a quiz app?

Quiz apps are surprisingly versatile. You can use them for:

Education – Test students’ knowledge in math, science, or history.
Entertainment – Create fun quizzes like “Which Marvel Character Are You?”
Training & Corporate Use – Build employee training quizzes.
Marketing – Grow engagement with trivia challenges for your audience.
Community Building – Run quiz contests in fan clubs or groups.

And because quizzes are interactive by nature, they grab user attention better than static apps.

Step 1: Choosing the Right No-Code Platform

The first decision is which no-code app builder to use. Each has strengths, and the best choice depends on your goals.

Popular No-Code Platforms for Quiz Apps:

AppCreator24
- Very beginner-friendly.
- Offers quiz modules and drag-and-drop design.
- Free plan available (ads included).
Glide
- Uses Google Sheets as a database.
- Great for simple data-driven quiz apps.
- Works well for quick prototypes.
Thunkable
- More advanced with logic features.
- Drag-and-drop blocks for quiz logic.
- Publish to iOS and Android.
Bubble
- Very customizable.
- Best for more complex quiz logic or gamification.
- Steeper learning curve compared to AppCreator24.

👉 For beginners, AppCreator24 or Glide is the easiest way to get started.

Step 2: Planning Your Quiz App

Before you open the builder, plan your quiz structure. Ask yourself:

How many quizzes will I include?
How many questions per quiz?
What types of questions (MCQs, true/false, fill-in-the-blank)?
Will there be a scoring system?
Do I want to show answers instantly or at the end?

Example Plan:

3 quizzes (General Knowledge, Movies, Science).
Each quiz = 10 multiple-choice questions.
Each correct answer = 1 point.
Show score at the end.

Having a plan keeps your app structured.

Step 3: Setting Up the App (AppCreator24 Example)

Let’s walk through building a quiz app with AppCreator24 (since it’s one of the simplest).

Go to AppCreator24.
Create a free account.
Click “Create New App”.
Choose a template (select Quiz App or blank template).
Name your app (e.g., Trivia Time!).

At this point, you’ll have the skeleton of your quiz app ready.

Step 4: Adding Quizzes and Questions

Now the fun part—adding your quiz content.

On AppCreator24:

Select Add Section → Quiz.
Create a quiz title (e.g., General Knowledge).
Add your questions one by one.
- Type: Multiple Choice / True or False.
- Input options and select the correct answer.
Save the quiz.
Repeat for additional quizzes.

👉 Pro tip: Keep your questions clear and short. Example:
Q: Who invented the light bulb?

Nikola Tesla
Thomas Edison ✅
Albert Einstein
Alexander Graham Bell

Step 5: Customizing Design

A plain app won’t engage users. Spend some time making it look good.

Colors – Match your brand or theme.
Icons – Use fun quiz icons for navigation.
Backgrounds – Add images or patterns.
Fonts – Choose readable fonts for all ages.

👉 For a quiz app, bright colors + playful design often work best.

Step 6: Adding Features Beyond Questions

A great quiz app isn’t just about asking questions—it’s about engagement.

Consider adding:

Scoreboard – Show user scores at the end.
Leaderboard – Display top scorers (requires user accounts).
Share Option – Let users share their scores on social media.
Timer – Make quizzes more exciting with countdowns.

Many no-code platforms (like Thunkable) allow you to add these without writing code.

Step 7: Testing Your Quiz App

Never skip testing. Try your app on multiple devices before launch.

Does the quiz load quickly?
Are questions and answers displaying correctly?
Is scoring accurate?
Does the app look good on both phones and tablets?

👉 Tip: Ask friends to test—it helps catch issues you missed.

Step 8: Publishing Your Quiz App

Once you’re happy with the app, it’s time to share it.

With AppCreator24:

You can generate an APK file for Android immediately.
Free plan apps show ads, but you can upgrade to remove them.

Publishing on Google Play:

Create a Google Play Developer Account ($25 one-time fee).
Upload your APK.
Add descriptions, screenshots, and category (Education/Entertainment).
Submit for review.

Publishing on Apple App Store:

Requires an Apple Developer Account ($99/year).
Some no-code tools (like Thunkable) make iOS publishing easier.

Step 9: Improving & Growing Your App

After launch, don’t stop. Keep improving.

Add more quiz categories regularly.
Introduce difficulty levels (easy/medium/hard).
Collect user feedback for improvements.
Gamify: badges, achievements, or streaks.

Real Example: My First Quiz App

When I built my first quiz app using AppCreator24, it was far from perfect. But here’s what happened:

Within the first month, 500+ downloads.
Friends loved competing for high scores.
I learned how small tweaks (like better design) kept people engaged.

The best part? I built it in one weekend—with zero coding.
