Frequently asked questions
Open a door.
Why does the app ask for the microphone and speech recognition?
So you can answer questions without touching the screen. Tap the microphone button on a question and say Answer with 2, Next, Question 12, Grade, or Slower. Questions and options are read aloud, and you can interrupt the reading at any time.
The app asks for permission only the first time you tap the microphone button, never at launch. If you decline, every feature still works by touch.
Voice commands work in all 11 supported languages.
Why does it ask for the camera and photo library?
To turn printed material into questions. Point the camera at a textbook page, or import a PDF, and the app reads the text and builds multiple-choice questions from it. You can also attach your own images to questions, explanations, and flashcards.
Text recognition runs entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded to read your pages.
How do I import my own questions?
Tap Add → Add in bulk, then choose Text, PDF, or Photo. The app detects questions, options, correct answers, and explanations automatically, and shows you what it found before anything is added.
Plain text works best in this shape:
Question 1 Which is the capital of the United States? 1. New York 2. Washington, D.C. 3. Los Angeles 4. Chicago Answer: 2 Explanation: Washington, D.C. has been the capital since 1800.
Questions can have up to 9 options, with one or several correct answers.
Friend Match won't start. What am I missing?
Friend Match needs a real opponent. It uses Apple's Game Center, so:
- Both players must be signed in to Game Center (Settings → Game Center on iPhone).
- Both must enter the same 4-digit code at roughly the same time.
- Both need an internet connection. You don't need to be in the same room.
Want to play right now, on your own? Choose Solo Practice. It runs against a bot that adjusts to your level, needs no network, and uses your own questions.
Friend Match doesn't record points.
The camera didn't find any questions in my page.
A few things help a lot:
- Fill the frame with the text and keep the page flat and evenly lit.
- Avoid shadows falling across the page, and glare from glossy paper.
- Handwriting and heavily stylized fonts are recognized less reliably than print.
You can always edit what the app detected before adding it, or type a question in by hand.
Voice commands aren't being recognized.
Check these in order:
- Open Settings → QuizDoorRush and confirm Microphone and Speech Recognition are on.
- Commands follow your device language, not the language of the question.
- Say the command as a whole phrase, and wait for the reading to pause.
- Other apps holding the microphone — a call, a voice memo, or iOS Voice Control — can take priority.
Where is my data, and how do I delete it?
Your questions, flashcards, notes, and imported files are stored on your device. Deleting the app removes them, so export anything you want to keep first.
Your player name and match data can be deleted at any time from the Settings screen (the gear icon). Friend Match and your nickname come from Apple's Game Center.
For the full picture, read our Privacy Policy. QuizDoorRush shows no ads.
Can I use the app with VoiceOver?
Yes. Studying entirely by ear is a core goal of the app, not an afterthought. Questions and options are read aloud, the reading speed is adjustable, and you can answer and navigate by voice.
If something is unreachable or reads incorrectly with VoiceOver, please tell us. We treat it as a bug, not a feature request.
Reporting a problem
The more of this you can include, the faster we can fix it.
- Your iPhone model and iOS version
- The app version (Settings → the gear icon, at the bottom)
- What you did, what you expected, and what happened instead
- A screenshot or screen recording, if you can
- The language your device is set to
Requesting a feature
QuizDoorRush is built by one developer, and the roadmap is shaped by what people ask for. Tell us what you're studying and what's slowing you down — that's more useful to us than a feature name.
