Kahoot! HAS AN APP!!

I happened to be looking around the Twitterverse when I stumbled upon a tweet stating that you can now the Kahoot as an app for iOS devices! 

This isn't the exact Tweet I saw, but this one is straight from the 'horse's mouth' so to speak!

Of course, anything that comes from Kahoot I am interested in as I have loved this product since I was first introduced to it over 2 years ago. I automatically signed in to my iTunes account and downloaded the app to see what it was like. 

It is great to note that the app interface is exactly the same as the interface that the students see when logging in to the site on their phone. Everything is laid out exactly the same way with the easy to follow instructions and the bright graphics to engage the users. 

I logged in to my Kahoot account on my laptop and had a go at playing one of my quizzes in order to test out the whole user experience and it was flawless. It travelled through the questions and feedback pages smoothly and easily. Students who used the app to complete their quizzes would have exactly the same experience as a student who was logged on via any other device. 

I will be getting my students to download this app onto their iOS devices when they are at home and have access to their personal wi-fi networks. One question I do have though is how much data will the app use to play a standard game as opposed to going via a web browser on a laptop as I'm sure this will be a question my students ask me!!
