QuizUp is a mobile game originally developed and published by Iceland-based Plain Vanilla Games, and now operated by Glu Mobile. The game is a mobile trivia app similar to the game Trivial Pursuit. QuizUp is a multiplayer game in which one user competes against another during seven rounds of timed multiple-choice questions of various topics. There are over 1,200 total topics available to users to choose from, and all the questions are voluntarily submitted by content contributors. Most topics are available in different languages.

QuizUp was initially released for iOS in November 2013. Plain Vanilla Games released an Android version in March 2014.

As of May 2014, QuizUp had 20 million users and has raised over $26 million from venture capital investments. Over a billion matches had been played in over 197 countries by March 2014. The company claims that users play an average of 40 minutes each day. On 30 September 2015, Plain Vanilla Games announced that they had reached a deal with Universal Television, the production arm of NBC, for a 10-episode television game show based on the app. Five days later, on 5 October 2015, it was announced that British channel ITV had also acquired the rights to their own game show version. Production began on the game show and the first episode was to air on 5 March 2017. However, the television show was scuttled by NBC in August 2016.
