Play live with Public Events

QuizTime v1.2 introduces a highly requested feature: public events.

How they work

Events are special game sessions organized by the community or the QuizTime team. Each event has a 6-character code you can type in the app to join, or you can open a direct link that will fill in the code automatically.

The live experience

  • Lobby — after joining, you enter a waiting room where a timer counts down to the start of the event
  • Multi-round games — each event consists of several rounds; the organizer controls the pace by starting rounds, revealing solutions, and reviewing partial leaderboards
  • Final leaderboard — at the end, a dedicated leaderboard shows the podium with golden badges for the top three
  • Event archive — in the "Past" tab you can review events you played and their results

Projector and organizer controls

For those organizing live events, QuizTime provides a full-screen projector view designed for big screens: it displays the join code in giant text, the clues for the current round, the countdown, and the leaderboard. A separate control panel lets the organizer manage every phase — from opening registrations through to completing the event.

Where to find them

The events section is accessible from the app's main menu. Keep an eye on our announcements for upcoming events!
