Frequently asked questions

How do I study geography maps effectively?

Test yourself from memory before checking the map, and label blank outlines instead of rereading them. Revisit the places you missed after a day or two so they stick.

What should a map quiz cover?

Focus on locations you must recall, such as countries, capitals, bodies of water, mountain ranges and borders. Add a few questions on why places sit where they do, since those connections help with retention.

Is the map quiz generator free to use?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations a month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports require a paid plan.

Which formats can I export quizzes to?

Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. Pro, at $14.99/month, adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
