Run a night

How do I let Auto-Host run the night for me?

Auto-Host plays the host's part of a Trivia night. It opens answering, runs the clock, locks, reveals, scores and moves on, so you can sit down and play.

Every plan

Captions are on the video.

Before you start

Auto-Host works on every plan, with any Trivia pack you can host. It does not read the questions aloud: the big screen and the phones show them. Start a Trivia night first, so the lobby is open.

  1. Start with Auto-Host

    In the lobby, click Start with Auto-Host, or Auto-Host in the footer. One click starts the night. You do not need to wait for the teams.

  2. Let the first team join

    Auto-Host holds on the join screen until the first team arrives. Then it moves on to the first round by itself.

  3. Watch it run the questions

    Auto-Host opens answering, runs the clock, locks the answers, reveals and scores. The bar at the top says Run the game automatically while it drives.

  4. Pause for a moment

    Press the main button yourself and Auto-Host pauses with Auto paused. Click Resume auto to hand the night back.

  5. Take over for good

    Click Switch to hosting myself to run the rest of the night yourself with the main button.

Tips

  • Click Set up the night first to choose the Pace, what happens Between rounds (Keep going or Wait for me) and whether the night starts on its own once enough teams are in.
  • On an open question that needs your marks, the bar says Auto-Host is waiting for you: mark the answers and it carries on.
  • On an audience-vote question, Auto-Host opens the vote and waits until you close it.

Questions

Does Auto-Host read the questions aloud?

No. There is no voice. The questions show on the big screen and on the players' phones.

Can I use Auto-Host with any pack?

Yes. If a pack has open questions you must mark by hand, or audience votes, the lobby tells you before you start.

What if I click something by mistake?

A manual press only pauses Auto-Host. Click Resume auto and it carries on from there.
