Essentially the quiz app with buzztouch requires you to put in one correct answer and 3 incorrect. What I want to do is actually build an app that lets the participants choose any 1 of 4 questions and relay a score based which option they picked. I want to be able to store/see the results as well. Does anybody know how to do this? Title Comments hi guys, I am looking for some assistance on an app that I am developing.

Would you mind rephrasing your question so I can understand what you want a little better?

In my app I don't want a correct vs non correct answer. I'm looking to Do a mini survey as opposed to a quiz. In this regard there are no or react answers since these are sheer opinions. As a result I'd like the data also to be send to me to compile. Does this clarify? Comments Hi Parker, The current quiz app relies on the need for one correct answer and three incorrect.

I would probably go about this by creating a Custom HTML screen that utilizes Forms and a submission button at the end. This way you can capture the information and add it to a database so you can compile it later. It'll be easier than trying to modify the code for the quiz screen.

Do you have any idea how to modify the code to do this? or have a resource? Thanks again Comments Thx Parker, the only issue I see is I will be unable to use the ios quiz interface which is pretty cool.

Community Colleges are also often readily available and cheap resources to consider. I would try finding some intro to objective-C websites and going through their materials. Then try to see if you can understand what is going on with the code for the quiz screen. That should set you up at a good place to do further searches to find information on code syntax or ideas that don't make sense. If you can get through the initial learning curve I think you'll be really happy you went own this route.
