I'm glad to be back to Utopian again. Sincerely, I've missed the community :)
Before I took some break, in my last post, I made a promise and I'm happy I fulfilled it. Below is what I included in the post:
All thanks to
for bringing up such great idea that helps expand users' knowledge horizon. It's my pleasure to have contributed to and re-implemented the Android Quiz app. Thanks to Utopian.io for the opportunity to contribute to the Open Source ecosystem.
At this juncture, I would like to take this app to another phase that would make it more user friendly and flexible for a trivia quiz game.
I would like to introduce to you the metamorphosed android quiz app - Triviums.

How to play the game
Once you download the app, select any of the quiz categories. This takes you to the stages in each category, then the game begins. The questions are shown alongside with four options to select the correct answer.
