Pebble Trivia

A trivia game for Pebble smartwatches. Questions pulled live from the Open Trivia Database — completely free, no account or API key needed.


How to Play

1. Pick a category

When you open the app you get a category menu. Choose what you want to be quizzed on:

  • All Topics — random questions from everything
  • General — general knowledge
  • Geography — countries, capitals, landmarks
  • History — historical events and figures
  • Science — physics, chemistry, biology, and more
  • Entertainment — movies, TV, music, books
  • Sports — athletes, teams, records
  • Animals — wildlife and nature
  • True / False — quick true-or-false questions
  • Easy (Kids) — family-friendly easy questions

2. Pick a difficulty

After choosing a category, pick how hard you want it:

  • Any Difficulty — mix of everything
  • Easy — beginner friendly
  • Medium — a solid challenge
  • Hard — for trivia nerds only

3. Select your answer

The question appears on screen with four shuffled answer choices (A, B, C, D) — or just True / False for that category.

Use UP / DOWN to highlight an answer, then press SELECT to lock it in. The app automatically checks your answer — no self-reporting needed.

On Pebble Time 2 and Pebble Round 2, you can also swipe up/down to move the highlight and tap to confirm.

4. See your result

The screen immediately shows whether you were right or wrong:

  • Correct — green flash, short buzz, score goes up
  • Wrong — red flash, double buzz, correct answer highlighted in green

The result auto-advances after 2 seconds. Press any button (or tap) to skip ahead.
