Paste a YouTube link or upload a recording, and the AI quiz generator reads the video, pulls out the facts worth testing, and writes a quiz with an answer key. You get multiple-choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank, and short-answer questions in minutes, with no manual writing. It works on lectures, training sessions, webinars, and tutorials, whether they live on YouTube or sit in a file on your computer.
Most quiz makers start from a blank page. This one starts from the video: it transcribes the audio, finds the main points, and turns them into questions you can edit and export.
Turn a YouTube video into a quiz
Paste any public or unlisted YouTube URL and the tool builds a quiz from the video without a download. It reads the spoken content, so a 45-minute lecture becomes a set of questions covering the concepts the speaker actually explained, each linked to the timestamp where it came up. This is the fastest way to generate questions from a YouTube video for a class, a flipped-classroom assignment, or a quick knowledge check. For private or members-only videos, download the file first and upload it directly.
How it works
-
Add your video: Paste a YouTube URL or upload a file (MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WebM, or MP3 and WAV audio). Lectures, meetings, and screen recordings all work.
-
The AI reads it: The audio is transcribed, then a language model finds the definitions, facts, steps, and cause-and-effect points that make good questions.
-
Get your quiz: You get multiple-choice questions with plausible wrong answers, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank items, and short-answer prompts, each with the correct answer marked.
-
Edit and export: Reword anything, drop questions you don’t want, then export to PDF or Word, or copy into Google Forms, Quizlet, or your LMS.
A long lecture takes about as long as a short clip because the analysis runs in parallel. Most videos finish in a few minutes.
Question types you get
| Question type | What it looks like | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Multiple choice | One correct answer plus three distractors | Exams, graded assessments |
| True / false | A statement to judge | Quick comprehension checks |
| Fill in the blank | A sentence with a missing term | Definitions, key terms |
| Short answer | An open prompt with a model answer | Homework, discussion, recall |
Every question links back to the timestamp in the source video, so you or your students can jump to the moment a concept was explained.
Who uses it
Teachers turn recorded lessons and educational YouTube videos into homework and review quizzes without writing questions by hand. Corporate trainers build knowledge checks from compliance and onboarding recordings. Course creators add quizzes to video lessons to lift completion rates. Students make practice tests from their professors’ lecture recordings to study for exams. For chat-style review instead of a fixed quiz, see Ask AI about any video.
FAQ
How do I turn a YouTube video into a quiz?
Paste the YouTube URL into ScreenApp, and the AI reads the video and writes quiz questions from what is said. Review the questions, edit any you want, then export. No download and no manual writing. For private videos, upload the file instead.
Is the quiz generator free?
Yes, you can try it free: 1 free recording plus a 7-day Growth trial, no signup needed to start. That covers uploading a video, generating a quiz, and exporting the questions.
Can it generate questions from a TikTok or other video?
Yes. Alongside YouTube, you can upload a file or paste links from TikTok, Vimeo, and Facebook. The AI quiz generator reads the audio and on-screen content the same way and builds questions from it.
What question formats does it create?
Multiple-choice with distractors, true/false, fill-in-the-blank, and short-answer. Each comes with the correct answer, and you can mix formats in one quiz or stick to a single type.
Can I edit the quiz after it is generated?
Yes. Every question is editable. Change the wording, swap answer options, remove questions, or reorder them before you export to PDF, Word, Google Forms, or your LMS.
How does it decide what to ask?
It transcribes the audio, then finds the definitions, facts, steps, and relationships in the transcript that make testable questions. Clear, well-structured lectures with explicit terms and examples produce the sharpest questions. You can always review and adjust the wording before using them.
Can I make a quiz from audio only?
Yes. Upload an MP3 or WAV, or any podcast or voice recording, and the tool generates questions from the spoken content the same way it does for video.
