How players join on their phones

Your players need a phone with a browser and nothing else. They scan the QR code on the big screen, pick a team name and they are in.

Every plan

Captions are on the video.

Before you start

This is for Trivia, and it works on every plan. The free Home plan admits up to 4 player phones per game. Paid plans and the 7-day trial have no phone limit. Start a Trivia night first, so the lobby is open.

  1. Show the code

    In the lobby, the Player Code card shows the code and the join link. The big screen shows the same QR code and link. Click the link to copy it for a group chat.

  2. Players scan the QR code

    Players point their phone camera at the QR code on the big screen and open the link. Or they go to app.quizado.com/join, type the code and tap Connect.

  3. Create a team

    On the phone, the player taps Create a team and types a team name. Everything else is optional. They tap Join as with their team name.

  4. Teammates join the same team

    Teammates tap Join an existing team, type their name and tap the team. The host or the team captain lets them in.

  5. Watch the teams arrive

    Each team appears under Teams on your control panel and on the big screen. When the room is ready, click Start Game.

Tips

  • Under New teams, choose what happens when a team arrives after the start: Let them in, Ask me mid-game or Always ask.
  • During the game, click Highlight QR in the top bar to show the join QR code full screen for late arrivals.
  • A player who joined before keeps their team name and look. The score starts at zero for each game.

Questions

Do players need to download an app?

No. Quizado runs in the phone browser. Players do not need an app or an account.

How many phones can join?

On the free Home plan, up to 4 player phones per game. Every phone counts, teammates' phones too. A fifth phone sees that the game is full. Paid plans and the trial have no phone limit.

Can a whole team play on one phone?

Yes. One phone per team is enough. Teammates can also join the same team from their own phones.

What if a player types the wrong code?

The phone says the code is invalid. They can check the code on the big screen and type it again.
