The game starts at 20:00. Here is everything you do.
Pick the pack
Open a ready-made pack. On a paid plan, you can also type a topic and check the questions the AI writes. Put the rounds in the order you want.
19:45 · 4 minutesPut the code up
Open the Quizado app on an Apple TV or Google TV, cast to a Chromecast from the Quizado Mobile Apps, or use HDMI or AirPlay. The join code and QR go on screen. Teams scan and name themselves from their seats.
20:00 · 2 minutesRun the game
Show each question, let the teams answer, then show the correct answer. Quizado keeps the time and the scores, so you can talk to the room.
20:05 · the gameShow the winners
The winners screen crowns the top team, then shows the whole room's scores. Everything is saved, so next week can pick up where this one ended.
21:30 · the endEvery phone in the room is already a buzzer.
The join code and QR go on the big screen. Guests scan, name their team and they are in, with no download, no account and no hardware to charge. Or they play in the free Quizado app.
Browser or app. Their choice.
Players need nothing to join. The ones who have the free Quizado app get the game inside it.
In the browser
- Scan the QR or open the link.
- Nothing to install, no account.
- Any phone with a browser.
In the Quizado app
- The phone camera opens the app straight into the game.
- No account. Team and score stay in a bar that never moves.
- Every Trivia round plays in the app, drawn and picture answers and the Music Bingo card too.
Same game, same scores, whichever way they join
Put the board on the bar's TV.
No laptop in the room. Install Quizado on the TV, type six digits from your phone, and the board is up.
- Runs over the internet. The pub's guest Wi-Fi does not have to cooperate.
- If the TV drops, the night does not. The round and the clock carry on.
- An Apple TV can run a Trivia night on its own with Auto-Host.
HDMI and AirPlay work too.
The Quizado app for tvOS. It can also host a Trivia night by itself.
The Quizado app from Google Play on the TV.
Cast the board from the Quizado Mobile Apps in one tap.
Plug in a laptop or mirror an iPad.
The first player to buzz answers.
Players scan the code and they are in — no download, no account, no paper slips to collect. On a buzzer round the first tap locks the room out, and the big screen names them before they have put the phone down.
- Teams of any size — one phone or one each
- Answers and scores land automatically, no marking pile
- Latecomers can join mid-game and still catch up
- Or play in the free Quizado app: scan the same QR, no account
Inside Quizado · actual product screen
Give the regulars something to chase.
Every Trivia night counts toward your venue's league, so week six matters as much as week one. A different game each week keeps the night new.
Formats the room already
knows how to play.
Family Face-Off and QuizoParty are on every plan, the free Home plan too.
Music playback needs an internet connection, and you hold whatever music licence your venue or event requires. Quizado does not provide or arrange it.
Different rounds. Different ways to ask.
A quiz that plays the same way for two hours loses the room. Change the rules between rounds, put your offers on the screen in the break, and keep the leaderboard open to the last round.
Write to the players who asked to hear from you.
When a team signs up on a phone, the player can choose to hear from your venue. You write to those players from Quizado: next week's game night, or tonight's offer.
All of this is part of Business. The guest list downloads from the web dashboard.
Every night ends as a post with your name on it.
When the winners are crowned, the night writes itself up: a public results page, share pictures and a short video. Players share them. Each one names your venue.
Business adds your logo, custom fonts, colours, sounds and backgrounds. Quizado branding stays visible on every plan.
New looks for the big screen.
Chalkboard
Chalk lettering on slate green, for the pub that already has a blackboard by the bar.
Paper
Warm paper with ink bars. Easy to read in a bright room or a daytime event.
Winners screen
Every Trivia, Family Face-Off and QuizoParty night ends here. A tie crowns joint winners.
Every big screen follows the venue theme: web, desktop, the Mobile Apps, the TV apps and the league table.
Your staff host it. The night is already written.
Quizado is software your own team runs, for one flat monthly price. Auto-Host runs the clock, the reveal and the scores. The questions come from the library, the weekly nights or the AI.
Trivia running by itself on the TV.
Auto-Host runs the night. You decide how.
It opens each question, runs the clock, reveals the answer and scores the round. Four settings for each venue, or change them in the lobby for tonight.
Auto-Host comes with the Pro and Business plans.
Start on its own
Once enough teams are in, a 30-second countdown runs on the host panel and the big screen. Then the first question opens.
Keep going, or wait for you
After the round scoreboard, Auto-Host goes on by itself or holds until you press Next.
Match the room
Pace sets the reading beat, the reveal and the round break. Answer windows keep the pack's own times.
An answer time for untimed rounds
Untimed rounds get a clock, so those packs run on Auto-Host too.
Arm it before anyone arrives
Start the night with Auto-Host on and an empty room. It waits, counts down when the teams are in, and plays.
An Apple TV can host alone
Scan the QR on the TV, approve it on your phone, then pick a pack on the TV. "Play next pack" keeps the same join code.
A flat battery or no internet does not end the night.
Offline hosting is included with every paid plan. Downloads stay playable for at least 7 days after a subscription ends.
Type a topic, like "90s pop songs". The AI writes the questions.
Pick a topic, a difficulty and how many questions. Quizado drafts the questions and the wrong answers, and you review every one before it reaches the screen. Reshuffle anything that reads badly.
The AI question writer comes with every paid plan, from Starter. The free Home plan uses the ready-made packs.
- Any topic, eight languages, your own difficulty mix
- Nothing goes live until you have read it and saved it
- Or skip it entirely and use a ready-made pack from the library
Inside Quizado · actual product screen
Run the round from your pocket or your wrist.
The question, the countdown and the leading team stay on your lock screen, with Lock, Reveal and Next one tap away.
Pair a watch and the same buttons are on your wrist, with the correct answer for Trivia, Family Face-Off and QuizoParty. Read it out and look at the players, not at a screen.
Live Activity and the Dynamic Island. Apple Watch for the buttons and the answer.
An ongoing notification with the buttons. Wear OS for the buttons and the answer.
Drop your phone. The game doesn't notice.

Everyone was amazed, the fun kept building, and people didn't want to stop playing. No glitches, no setup headaches, and it worked perfectly offline — which matters a lot in venues with bad WiFi.

As a wedding DJ I'm always looking for something that gets guests involved, and Quizado does exactly that. Everyone was amazed, the fun kept building, and people didn't want to stop playing. No glitches, no setup headaches, and it worked perfectly offline — which matters a lot in venues with bad WiFi.
Quizado was an absolute hit at our corporate retreat! It brought so much energy and laughter to our team building, keeping everyone completely engaged from start to finish.

Quizado was an absolute hit at our corporate retreat! It brought so much energy and laughter to our team building, keeping everyone completely engaged from start to finish. The best part was how seamlessly it allowed our remote employees to join in on the fun and feel just as connected as those in the room. If you want a fun, effortless way to bring your team together, Quizado is the way to go!
Questions and answers.
Can I use my own questions?
Yes, on every plan. Write them in the editor, or import a CSV or Excel file and preview it for free. Playing your own packs needs Pro, and saving a bulk import needs Business. The free plan plays the free packs and any pack shared with you by link.
How many people can play?
Up to 4 player phones on the free Home plan. Paid plans have no limit on teams or players.
What happens if the Wi-Fi dies mid-game?
Family Face-Off, QuizoParty and Territory run entirely offline from packs and nights you downloaded in advance - teams answer out loud and you mark it. Bar Trivia needs a connection because players answer on their phones.
What if my phone dies mid-game?
Nothing is lost. Trivia, Family Face-Off and QuizoParty nights run on our servers. Reload, switch to another device or restart the app, and the board, the scores, the open question and the clock are where you left them.
Can Quizado run the night for me?
Yes, for Trivia. Auto-Host opens answering, runs the clock, reveals, scores and moves on. Four venue settings decide when it starts (once 1 to 5 teams are in), whether it waits for you between rounds, how fast it goes, and the answer time for untimed rounds. You can arm it before anyone has joined.
Do I need a music licence for music rounds?
Yes — you hold whatever licence your venue or event requires. Quizado does not provide, include or arrange that licence.
