Faceoff – Song Quiz

I wish I could give the game 5 stars. I played this with my brother on his phone and really loved it. Unfortunately, I’ve only been able to play 1 quiz on my iPhone8 because it keeps asking if the last person I played wants a rematch and won’t except yes or no for an answer (even though it recognizes I’m saying those words). I would just report a bug, but I don’t see any way to do that through the App Store and I’m not using twitter to do it (clicking app support takes you to the song quiz twitter page). Update: this issue has been fixed and I’m having a blast playing with my family and friends!

I’ve really been enjoying this game but every time I played the 90s character there is a song and it’s called JUMP by Kriss Kross. I always answer it correctly it may spell it with C’s but it understands me… but always makes my answer in regards to the artist wrong no matter what I do. I have dealt with that question over and over again and song quiz. No matter if I save the artist first and then the song title or if I reverse it or say the artist name multiple times it will spell it like it understands me but will give me a wrong answer. This has affected my game because sometimes that one answer will either give me a perfect score or not. I cannot get around it and I wonder if others are having the same problem with that question. I don’t drink, I have a bachelors degree I’m educated and no matter what it will not understand that to be a correct answer. Please fix.

Overall a really great idea for a game. I really enjoyed playing this and testing my musical knowledge. I will say though that there are some changes that could be made to make it a more appealing game. First, instead of answering by talking, being allowed to type. Not only would this fix any issues with voice to text, it also makes it more comfortable to play in public so I’m not just saying random things to my phone in front of a bunch of strangers lol. Second, just some coding changes. The lady that talks to you has kind of an annoying voice so changing that and then she also spells the words out (which I kind of find funny but still). Like “you double u-oh-en-exclamation point.” And the last thing is just a larger variety of songs. I got quite a few repeats but still a really fun game! Nice job!

I added this app yesterday. At first I really enjoyed playing, so much so, that I played for over 2 hours. I played again today & came to realize that so many songs from yesterday were repeated today. I didn’t play as long as yesterday because I got bored. With the great abundance of songs that were written over the years (especially the 60s & 70s) I doubt if this app would have to repeat one song within a year. Also, limiting the songs used in the game makes it unfair to people who know an abundance of songs that are not used in this app. Trying to name the same song over & over again may eventually get you to know the right answer but it also gets boring. Please spice it up with more variety, and, as far as I’m concerned, it will be near perfect.

I am pleased that Song Quiz added a feature to obtain feedback if there is an issue with the answer (song title and artist). However, the frequency which Song Quiz asks for feedback is frustrating. I am sometimes asked if I have feedback when I have played a perfect game (i.e., 200 points) which makes no sense at all. Today, my answer to the bonus question was “spot on” for both title and artist (Love is Blue by Paul Muriat was one of my favorites 50 years ago) and the pseudo-Alexa gave me no credit, I lost the game which ended a decent win streak and I was not asked for feedback. Needless to say, I was totally peeved and probably won’t play again until my steam is completely released. I suggest an algorithm that will ask the player for feedback if their score is significantly lower than their average or if a long win streak is ended.

For some time, I had the app Song Quiz on my phone. Song Quiz was fantastic—a great guess-the-song game to play with friends or family. All you had to do was choose a decade, and it would play snippets out loud for each person to identify by song and artist. You passed the phone around and each person guessed on their turn. It was reliable and fun. Then one day my app icon changed. I clicked it and was told Song Quiz had become Face Off. Obnoxiously, the game now required access to my contacts and camera. It literally will not let you play with this deactivated. And even after they’re activated, there doesn’t seem to be a way to play with people in real life using the app. Instead, as far as I can tell, you can only play with people in your contacts. It’s terrible. Disappointing to have lost Song Quiz.

It’s addicting! So freaking addicting. Always “one more round!” My husband and I LOVE it! My parents do as well. It would be great if we could connect to other players specifically. My only recommendation is that there should be more types of songs available. There is no classic rock, nirvana, Beatles, Katy Perry, etc. I don’t think there should be too much genre’s added (except maybe country and metal because they are very specific types of music) I think the decades makes it harder and you learn more. Making it genre exclusive would take a lot of fun out of it. It would be way to easy. Thanks so much for this game!

First off, the game is incredibly fun. You’ll spend hours playing against strangers, or out the phone in the middle of a couple of friends and go to war. That said, the voice recognition, recording your voice to get an answer, is very spotty. In two days of using, there’s been several songs where I’ve been marked as incorrect, despite saying the artists name and/or song title correctly. (“Sisqo” for “Thong Song” is a good example.) when you can’t count on the games engine to be more accurate, and it cost see you several games in the process, then you can’t go any higher than three out of five stars on the rating. Tighten up the voice recognition, and the game will get a better score.

We play this on our Alexa frequently, but this version has a couple issues more pronounced than with the Alexa version. For instance, my first time playing on my phone I guessed the artist and song title correctly -- the screen displayed the text that I said, but the app only counted one correct instead of both. This happened another two times in the same game. Another issue -- and this one is major -- the sound quality is awful. It sounds like I'm listening on a potato. This is true on my iPhone audio as well as through Bluetooth in my car. Alexa skins quality on this app is bad, but this is embarrassing for an app that relies solely on the player being able to hear.

I love the game, but there are a few problems with it though that I would like to address. These include: 1. The sound design—the sound is very poor quality and needs to be fixed. 2. First starting the game—when the player starts the game, they have to spell out their name, I shouldn’t have to do that. The last problem has to do with sound design/quality. 3. Loudness of the game—the loudness of the game is poor and also needs to be fixed. (See #1 above). Overall, I love this game.

Used to be a fun game called song quiz. You could play alone, with a group of friends next to you, it was a good party game or road trip game and I loved it. Then it turned into “face off” where you have to play over video with your contacts who must have it on their phone as well. I can’t figure out how to even start a game. But even if I could, I probably wouldn’t play it because it’s so dramatically different and worse than what it was before. What were they thinking? Literally, I want to know what they were thinking. This is maybe the second review I’ve ever written but this was SUCH a terrible “update” that I felt it necessary to warn others and hopefully get the developers’ attention so they can explain themselves or change it back?

We have LOVED this app, it has seriously been our saving grace on long road trips… our family has such a fun time guessing the songs and it gets so competitive! But with the new version you have to send an invite you can’t play with someone who’s sitting right next to you and this is SO inconvenient. So sad we can’t play this on road trips now 😭💔

This used to be the go to for my husband and me any time we were in the car more than twenty minutes or so. We loved it. It was fun and challenging and something we could do to pass the time. We hadn't had the chance to play for a long time, but I decided to try again today. Upon opening the app, I had to give it permission to use my camera and microphone. Then, it asked for my phone number and first and last name. Nothing about any that made me feel comfortable, but I did it anyway. Then, I tried to start a new game only to find out that I had to invite one of my friends to play with me. That's absolutely not what I wanted to do. I immediately deleted the app.

The voice command only feature is actually more of a nuisance than a help. In an effort to be more accessible it actually was kinda inaccessible. A few buttons for controls, pauses, leader board would actually make this fun. Needing to know my location seemed and ultimately was unnecessary as pretty much everyone made something up. The game is repetitive and there are no milestones to help make the progress meaningful. More specific categories by genre would make this a little more fun, but really the incentive to keep playing dies after having to listen to the same voiceover more than 3 times. It’s also giving Spyware vibes like crazy.

I first played this game at my friend’s house and thought it was an absolute blast. So I downloaded it on my phone so my family and I can play. And it was just as fun! The only problem is, there isn’t that big of a song list. After about an hour of playing, we started getting a bunch or repeats. If this app can have an update every once in a while where new songs are added, then this would easily get 5 stars from me. But overall, this game is a blast.

Ah, another app that decides to take advantage of the user base that grew their popularity and attempt to create some social media platform or simply invade our privacy so they can sell off data or who knows what else…the premise of this game was perfect before. But now I have to enable my camera to play a song quiz? In what world is that cool? Why would anyone want to have their camera on while playing this? And why would anyone think that someone happens to have so many friends available at the same time to play this game? Just insanely poor thinking. Deleting now and won’t download unless they change it back to a PLAYABLE game

Trivia is one of my favorite things, especially music and I’m having a blast with it. It’s troubling because sometimes it shuts off for no reason and before you can get your answer in and when you finally re-join the game your opponent is way ahead of you. Also I have given the correct answer multiple times and it tells me I am wrong, even though The answer it gives me is exactly what I said. Hope you can look into these issues.

I was browsing through the music apps and I came across this game it looked fun, so I downloaded it. When I got it the first thing I saw was the pick a music era. I thought that was cool but it only went up to 2010, so clearly it has not been updated for a long time. The last thing I saw was so annoying was I had to play with friends to even play solo. And I don’t have friends that have this game. Also the speaker I awful, I can’t even play with out it breaking. So that was my review, plz fix game 👎🏻👎🏻

I play this game a lot thru Google Assistant while I’m driving, and with my friends and two daughters... we all love it! I was so excited when the game got its own app, but it’s got issues understanding my answers every time I know the song and artist and am going for bonus points! It’s highly stressful and annoying when you say both correct answers and you only get half of it correct or none of it right at all... I deleted the app and am going back to my Assistant if I decide to continue playing.

I actually love this game and the way they do things, for ANY quiz game. Too many quiz apps make their apps so juvenile (nothing wrong with that) BUT, if you want actual ‘adult’ top 100 music the past two (ok. 3) generations know... this is the app. It definitely has its things to refine...but No dancing pandas or weird pop-ups about candy or prom dresses lol Love this app

I used to play this game every day in the car with my wife, at parties with friends, and even at work with coworkers and my boss. That was before it became “Faceoff” and required everyone playing to download it, add their info and camera to play. It’s understandable that you want more people to download the app, and I’ve gotten so many friends to download the original app, but no one wants to do this version. Make multiple modes of play! Let me play with friends on camera that are far away, and on one phone in group settings ere we pass the phone around. This game is so fun and great, no other apps I’ve found ask for artist AND song. It’s always artist OR song. This is the game I want to play, but not how I or any of my friends want to play it. Please set it back or add the original play mode back!!!

I love playing a Song Quiz on Alexa at home, so I was very excited to find the app that I could play on the go. Unfortunately it is really hit or miss when it comes to hearing my answers in the car — even when it is completely quiet. It is really frustrating to get the song and artist right only to have the app tell you your answers are incorrect! I do not have this problem playing at home on my Alexa Show! Please fix this app do it is more consistently accurate!!!

Half of our most recent game, the audio of the music wouldn’t even play on my phone or give me an option to replay to try to fix it. Then when we play the drawing guessing game, the word was lightsaber and it was said about 20 times and still wouldn’t register so it ended. I know a voice recognition game can be tricky, but frustrating when an entire game is super buggy to where you can’t play.

I love this game! It is so fun! I wish there was more categories that you could choose from though instead of just the decade. Like maybe you could add a Disney songs category where you have to name the song, and the movie it’s from. However this is still one of my favorite games!! If you love music from any decade you should definitely get this app!

This is an addicting game. It’s fun to play while doing household chores. I’d give it a 5 star review, but occasionally it won’t give me credit for a correct answer (despite it recognizing it on the screen) and will also randomly exit a game and bring me back to the main menu. I’m not sure if this is because my opponent quits but if it is, it would be nice to have the game notify you when that happens. Thanks for the hours of fun!

Love it!! The only thing is it needs genres not only decades! 80s metal or 2000s pop or 90s alternative. Or if not that then easy medium hard based off of the charts of the decade when it’s multiple players in a group. One on one online it tells you if your opponent got the title and artist both but not “your opponent guessed the title correctly” or artist correctly. I’d like to know ! It’s so fun I love it. I wouldn’t mind in app purchase for genres or i don’t know.

What the actual crap. It used to be a game where you opened the app, and immediately could play. You’d pick how many are playing, pick the year range for songs, then listened to the clip and then guess the song and artist, it was fun to play on road-trips. NOW, it’s completely different, it forces you to add your phone number, forces you to give access to your contacts before you can move forward, then it requires you to invite friends to play with you and you can’t go any further past that. Stupid

This is a great game. The voice recognition is excellent. The songs are fun and being able to play others you know is really fun. Only recommendation would be more variety in songs and categories. For example in 70s I have yet to hear any Pink Floyd songs despite the album cover being represented in the app for 70s. Keep us listening and guessing 👍

I wanted to like this game, the actually idea of vocalizing your answer instead of picking from multiple choice is awesome and exactly what I want when I’m driving. However I couldn’t make it past the screen asking me to invite friends, I’m insanely introverted and cannot bring myself to inconvenience others by sending an invite. Please allow people to skip this step and move straight on to playing, I don’t really care if you make me play against randos, but I’d absolutely love a solo play mode where I can just test my knowledge.

This game was fun. Then the update happened. Needs your phone number. Needs your contacts. Needs your camera. You can select to opt out of that…and then it immediately proceeds to tell you that it needs that access to move forward. There is no such thing as skipping what is asking you. You don’t need all that information out there just to play random people. I have deleted this app and you should too. Who knows what they’re doing with your information.

This game is really fun to play with friends but there needs to be more songs! Me and my friends like to play together but every time we play we get the same songs over and over again and it gets boring. Also needs to add more genres from the different eras! I hope this is something that could happen soon!

Being able to hangout with family and friends and play games together has definitely brought us closer together! The app feels like it has a lot to grow but I already have some pretty nice memories from it.

Maybe I should’ve waited until I calmed down toReview this however I’m not I got a song right by Whitney Houston how will I know as the Song Quiz lady was saying the song I watched what I said for the answer and it was exact same thing she said I got it right and you guys counted it wrong I didn’t even miss spell a word or say a word wrong!Are you gave me credit for was Whitney Houston but I had the song title right!!

Discovered this through Google Home (Google Assistant,) but wanted to play against someone remotely. Emailed the developer who replied right away suggesting using the app... worked out great! Game play is straight forward, and the voice assistant host is funny.

I don’t like this new Faceoff. I liked playing song quiz cause I could play other people when my son didn’t play cause he was bored with it cause we couldn’t against each other living in 2 different states. Now this new version wants me to connect and chat with my contacts. This is not going to work for me cause no one in my contacts are going to want to play this game. Why do you have to make it so difficult for people who are not tech savvy? 🤨

This game is a lot of fun. Although I would rated five stars if there were more years of music. Pretty please add 40s and 50s. I was born in the 80’s but I grew up on doo-wop music and consider myself to be an old soul. Could you also consider symphony and orchestra. This is tons of fun and my brain is getting some great exercise, especially thru the pandemic.

When you first start playing its really fun and enjoyable but after playing it more then 3 times there are no new songs. You already know every song that it plays. The need to update the game and add more songs for each decade. It would also be more enjoyable if they had music from the past year or two.

Really enjoying playing Song Quiz. Overall I rate the app and experience high, but two things for you… Would be nice to reduce the time it takes to start a new game or when signing in to play a new game. Also, have had a couple songs where the answers were correct but come back as wrong. One song in particular it has now happens multiple times…’80’s, Broken Wings by Mr Mister. Always says wrong for the artist. Just thought I’d you have one example of this May fix it for any other songs with same issue. Again, fun game. Mondo, Wisconsin

Sometimes the “host” speaks things correctly, and a lot of times she doesn’t. Why does she say “open parentheses, closed parentheses” after asking your name? Why does she speak the opponent’s name but then spell out their location and then says “dot dot” after their location every time? Why does she spell out the decade, “eight oh oh s” instead of saying “eighties?” The app doesn’t work as well as it should.

I really enjoyed this game when it would randomly pair you up against a random person. Since the update it only lets you play with friends that also have the game. Because of that I no longer can play and it is sad. I wish they would put the option to play a random person back in the game.

I just used the iPhone version for the first time. There were several songs that I got right, but the application recorded something completely different from what I said. Suggestion: for the iPhone app, use song choices that have less words to avoid unfair errors. For now, I am sticking to playing on Alexa.

The app could be much better by instead of me having to say my answer with the mic I could just type it in because the mic pics up random people in the background and ruins my answer

I would give this 5 star if I wouldn’t have occasional frustration with giving correct answer and Alexa doesn’t recognize. Also, any pause in cadence between saying song and artist, the game moves forward. And I don’t get credit for the second answer.

I'm not sure where these good reviews are coming from, but this is one of the most glitchy apps on the app store. The scoring gets messed up all the time, the notifications are awful, there's no way to check the the history of scores. I'm writing this review on my way to try and download an alternative app in the store, and to delete this one.

I love the game however it would be perfect if you could choose the different genre that you are most familiar with, Country,pop, rock and classic rock and so on add that and you get a 10 rating from me. Thank you.

I think the game is really fun it’s entertaining, but they need to add more songs to their venue. The same songs play repeatedly and after a while, you get to memorize them and my opponent and I find it noncompetitive the same songs continue to play. Boom.

I enjoy this game very much. But today after a bit of an absence I cannot get it. Keeps asking me what friends I want to ask! I never had to do that before. I tried deleting and readd but it is still doing it. I am disappointed!

Song quiz use to be our go-to road trip game. Now we can’t play with each other in the car. I guess you play phone to phone?? And there’s drawing?? Why didn’t y’all just make a completely different app?? I can’t find another app like Song Quiz. All the others are multiple choice. This one use to have us screaming at the phone it was fun - even if AI lady spelled out all the words & punctuation.

Going into a game and new matches is so long it can sometimes feel like playing this game is a choir. Also if you pause for like 2 seconds in the middle of giving your answer it’ll submit it wrong even while you repeat the answer as it loads. Other than that it’s a really fun game!

I’ve been having fun with the app for the past 2 to 3 days but now all of a sudden it shuts down in the middle of the game and I’m not able to finish it. Not sure if it’s a bug or what’s going on but now I don’t want to play it anymore
