Timeswipe is a trivia game where you have to guess whether an event happened… Play with your friends.

Ready for relaxation? Then take a look at the relatively new Timeswipe. This app will test your historical knowledge. You will see a milestone, after which you indicate whether the event occurred just before or after the year shown. Think of well-known milestones, such as the Titanic disaster, the invention of the steam engine and – yes – the invention of the electric shaver.

During each session you earn points based on performance. You can then also share the session with others. There is a daily challenge and in a separate section space is reserved for special sessions (for example with a specific theme). The same principle has also been applied to guessing the year of release of certain music. You can download a separate app for this: Songswipe. Optionally you can create an account. The advantage of this is that you can save the game sessions and then continue playing on another device. Both apps offer this functionality.

The apps are free to use, but those who make a donation will gain access to additional features. For example, with the music version of the app you have access to a marathon mode, with which you can play larger rounds. With the music variant it is also possible to select an external music player. By default this is Spotify, but there is also support for YouTube Music and SoundCloud.
