50 best friend quiz questions: who really knows you?
Choose five prompts, write your true answers, and send your friends a quiz to see who remembers. Compare scores, then swap roles and play theirs.
Made from your answers
Find out who knows you best
- Write your answers. Add four to six true things about yourself, from your usual order to a favourite memory.
- Send your quiz. We turn your answers into five questions. Friends open one link, with no account needed.
- Compare scores. See who remembered the details, then ask a friend to make their own.
Anyone with the link can play. Your personal quiz is never listed or searchable.
For a separate warm-up, play The General Knowledge Gauntlet.
Make a best friend quiz in four steps
Step 1
Choose five questions and answer them yourself
Use the lists below as prompts. Write facts such as 'My usual cinema snack is salted popcorn.' A question alone does not tell the maker which answer is correct.
Step 2
Make it about you
Open the personal quiz maker, choose Me, enter a first name and add four to six facts. It builds five questions from the information you provide. For a quiz about your friend, ask them for facts they are happy to share.
Step 3
Play it first, then send the link
Check that every question has an unambiguous answer. Send the finished quiz through WhatsApp or your device's share menu. Friends enter a name or nickname and play without an account.
Step 4
Compare scores and send one back
Each correct answer earns a point. Share the result card, then use Make your own to return the challenge. The personal quiz sharing guide walks through the buttons and preview options.

Keep the score fun and the answers fair
For a paper version, use one point per correct answer and agree acceptable variations before starting. For the five-question Trivana version, use the score shown at the end. A low score is a conversation starter, not a measure of how much someone cares.
Avoid changing favourites mid-game. Write 'My current favourite...' if an answer changes often. For a group of friends who met at different times, mix shared memories with everyday preferences so newer friends have a fair chance.
Use first names or nicknames. Skip addresses, passwords, health details, money and stories someone wants kept private. Unlisted means the quiz stays out of search results; anyone with the link can open it and see player names and scores. Share only what belongs in that audience.

Best friend quiz questions, answered
How many questions should a best friend quiz have?
Five is a simple starting point for a chat challenge. Choose from the fifty prompts here and save the others for another quiz, so a friend can finish and send one back.
Can I make a best friend quiz for free?
You can start in Trivana's personal quiz maker. It uses facts you provide to create a five-question quiz. Your friends do not need an account to play.
Can the AI work out my friend's answers?
No. Ask your friend to supply the facts or make a quiz about yourself. The maker should never have to look someone up or guess private details.
Can we play on WhatsApp?
Send the quiz link in WhatsApp. It opens in the browser; the game does not run inside the chat. Afterwards, share the result back to the group.
What if two friends get the same score?
Keep it as a tie, or let both make a return quiz. Do not invent extra points after seeing the result.
Give your best friend five questions
Pick a few prompts, write the true answers and make your quiz. Send it, compare scores and take their challenge next.
