    FAQs

    What file formats can I upload?
    PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), Excel (.xlsx), Text (.txt), and images (JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP).

    Can students take quizzes without an account?
    Yes. Simple Sharing is fully anonymous. Smart Sharing asks for the student’s name (and optionally email) but does not require them to create a QuizMagic account.

    When do my free limits reset?
    The daily limit (2 generations) resets at midnight in your local time. The monthly limit (10 generations) resets on the 1st of each month.

    Are my quizzes private?
    Yes. Saved quizzes and summaries are private to your account unless you generate a share link.

    What’s the difference between Bloom’s, SOLO, and Mixed?
    Bloom’s targets cognitive levels (Remember → Create). SOLO targets structural complexity (Unistructural → Extended Abstract). Mixed combines both in one quiz — great for differentiated assessment.

    How does AI Essay Grading work?
    Premium users get 5 essay tokens/month. Spend 1 token in a Smart Sharing session to AI-grade up to 50 essay responses against a rubric. You can review and override any AI score before releasing grades to students.
