Hi @Lochie, We'll need lots more information than that to help you out! Is this for Android or iOS? Are you running on the simulator/emulator, or a real device? If Android, what sort of messages do you see in LogCat when it fails? If iOS, what sort of messages in the debug console? Check out this document on how to debug both platforms: https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Problem_Reporting_and_Basic_Debug_v1.0.pdf Lots of time this happens because you've used some characters that the OS doesn't understand. Sometimes it gets confused between ` and ', and other things. Give those a look as well. Mark

I've had mine invalid a couple of times when I've tweaked it. most times it's due to "," (commas) missing from the JSON code. Can be very difficult to find if that's the case but that's a typical error cause

@Lochie, mark is right - when I create quizzes, this happens all the time to me - usually I have a ' or " in my questions/answers. Remove those, and it should work again. Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com
