About this game

TimeGuessr challenges both your geography and history knowledge in one addictive experience. Using real historical photographs from around the world, your task is simple: guess when and where each photo was taken.

Think you know your 1960s from your 1980s? Can you tell Paris from Prague just by a grainy street scene? Whether you're a casual player or a history buff, TimeGuessr will put your deduction skills to the test.

Each photo is carefully selected, showcasing moments that span continents and centuries. Place a pin on the map to guess the location, choose the year, and see how close you were. The closer your guess, the more points you earn.

New photos are added daily through the popular daily game mode. You can also challenge your friends, compare your progress on the leaderboard, and even create your own shareable rounds.

TimeGuessr is more than just a guessing game — it's a journey through time and place, blending curiosity, memory, and discovery in a way that keeps you coming back for more.

The photo/map switch button needs to be made stationary or at least require press and hold to start moving it. Switching between is *incredibly* annoying and feels like a mini-game in itself (one that doesn't award any pts...!) because you have to tap it, without moving it, when it moves *as soon as* you touch it... Other than that, it's a good app. Too bad.

Hi Melissa, thanks for reporting this bug. The issue, which affected a small number of players, has now been fixed. We’d really appreciate it if you could update the app and check everything works for you now. If you feel the fix has improved your experience, we’d be grateful if you could consider updating your review.

Update - quick fix has worked. Thanks for the quick response! Well, it was excellent until the most recent update and I used to play it every day. The new update's broken it. When playing the daily challenge I constantly get kicked back to the main screen, when I zoom in on a picture after a second or two it resets, when going to the map selecting the three map type options does nothing, and also when trying to place a pin it puts me back to the picture. It's impossible to use now.A real shame.

I love the game, but there are a few issues. When I share a link with my friends there is no way to open or import it in the app, so anyone who joins has to play in the browser. Also the breakdown screen map is often bugged so it's hard to zoom in.
