Topgrade is a multi-platform learning system created by Nick Daly in Durham, United Kingdom. It was originally launched as an iOS app, called Revision Quiz Maker, but due to popularity subsequently expanded to include Android, Windows and an online site and rebranded as Topgrade.[1] [2] [3] As of December 2016 the learning environment has over 160,611 users.[4] [5]

Functionality

As a learning environment, Topgrade lets registered users create quizzes and flashcards specific to their own course as well as playing quizzes made by others. Learning resources can be shared across Apple, Android and Windows devices by using the online site.

Ongoing development

A new and improved native Android app was release to the general public on 24 January 2016.[6] A native Windows 10 app is currently being developed and is set to be released in 2017. [7]

Media reception

Reviews of Topgrade Quiz Maker have generally been positive with APPEd Review giving it 4/5 stars for productivity and recommending its use in the classroom. However, APPEd criticised the iOS App for not allowing teachers to review the score of their student, a shortcoming version 2.6 has addressed. [8] SensorTower reports an average users satisfaction rating of 4.5/5 stars for the iOS App. [9]
