Common questions
When does The Daily Quiz change?
At midnight UTC, the same moment for everyone in the world. That's midnight in the UK in winter and 1am in summer. The home screen tells you when today's set has been played.
Why can't I play the daily again?
The Daily Quiz is once a day: everyone gets the same ten questions, and the league compares one attempt each. Your score for the day stays on the home screen. A new ten arrives at midnight UTC. Quick Quiz and the subject quizzes can be played as often as you like.
"Today's league" says I need to sign in
The league runs on Apple's Game Center, so you need to be signed in to it on your device: open the iPhone or iPad Settings app, tap Game Center, and sign in with your Apple Account. Then come back and tap the league button again. Everything else in Box Clever works without Game Center.
I can't hear the answer sounds
The sounds follow the ring/silent switch on the side of your iPhone, so flick it to ring. Also check the volume, and that Sound is on in Box Clever's own Settings (the gear button on the home screen).
How is the daily scored?
Base points by difficulty (easy 10, medium 20, hard 30), a streak bonus that grows with each right answer in a row, and one point for every second left on the 20-second clock. A wrong answer, or running out of time, scores nothing and resets the streak. The full table is in the app under Settings → How scoring works.
Does my progress sync between devices?
No. Everything is stored on the device itself — there is no account and nothing is uploaded, apart from your daily score to Game Center if you're signed in. Deleting the app deletes your progress with it.
Will I see the same questions again?
Not until you've seen all the others. Quick Quiz and each subject work through their whole pool before anything comes round again. The Daily Quiz draws from a separate set of questions that never appears in practice.
A question is wrong
It happens — there are more than 1,800 of them. Email the question and what you believe the right answer is, and it'll be checked and corrected in the next update.
