To find out which Hogwarts house you belong to, open HarryPotter.com’s official Hogwarts Sorting Ceremony in a web browser and choose Get Sorted Now. Answer the Sorting Hat’s questions to receive Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin. You do not need an Echo or another special device: a browser-capable phone, tablet or computer is the practical route to the actual house-sorting quiz.
Take the official Sorting Ceremony in a browser
- Open the official page. Visit HarryPotter.com’s Hogwarts House Sorting Quiz page on a phone, tablet or computer.
- Select “Get Sorted Now.” This starts the Sorting Ceremony.
- Answer the questions. Follow the prompts to discover which of the four Hogwarts houses the Sorting Hat assigns you.
The Sorting Ceremony is the official house-sorting experience, created by J.K. Rowling and originally introduced on Pottermore. HarryPotter.com describes a refreshed design for 2026 while retaining the same quiz questions, so the update is a new presentation rather than a wholly new set of questions. The cited official pages do not provide a full browser-compatibility list or establish a dedicated app; use the web page in a browser.

Use Alexa for a separate Harry Potter trivia game
Wizarding World documents an Official Harry Potter Quiz Alexa Skill. It uses audiobook excerpts and offers O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. difficulty modes, with house points as part of the game. It is trivia—not the Sorting Ceremony—and does not determine which Hogwarts house you belong to.
