05 / Invite your teams
Scan. Name your team. You're in.
Nobody needs your host key to play. The waiting screen gives them a shortcut straight into your game.
Open the shared screen if you want one.
If you want a big shared view, select Open shared screen in the lobby and put that page on your TV, projector, or video call. You can skip this: team phones show the questions, visuals, results, and leaderboards.
Ask teams to scan the QR code.
Open the phone's camera and point it at the code. Tap the link that appears. It opens the right game automatically. The player only needs a team name—words, emojis or both—and selects Join game.
Use the game code if scanning is awkward.
Players can open trividiots.live/play, enter the five-character game code from the screen, add a team name, and select Join game. Copy invite gives you a link to send in your own group chat, too.
Wait until the teams appear, then start.
Each team uses one phone to submit answers. If you want to compete, use Join as a player on your own phone. When everyone is ready and at least one team has joined, select Start game.
No login scavenger hunt.
A QR invitation already knows which game to join. Players need a team name, not an account or your private host key. Keep the team page open during the game.
