How to Host Trivia Games using a TriviaMaker on Tv?

To make it work, follow these simple instructions:

1. Download the TV App

To utilize the TV app, you must download it on a compatible device such as Apple TV, Android TV, or Amazon Fire TV. The simplest method to locate the app is by searching for “TriviaMaker” (as one word) in the app store of any of these platforms. 

Once the TriviaMaker TV app is downloaded, all you need to do is open it and take note of the TV CODE that is displayed on the TV screen. This unique 6-digit code refreshes each time you open the app and after each game played.

2. Open the TriviaMaker app

You can open TriviaMaker app on your phone/tablet, or use the web app at TriviaMaker.com.

5. Use the mobile / web app as a remote to control the TV app. 

You will notice that the game displayed on the app looks different than the one on the TV. This is done on purpose to give you a “presenter’s view” where you can see the answers on your device, but the audience can’t see them until you click them. We hope you love the combination of using the mobile app and the TV app! If you find any errors or have any suggestions, please feel free to contact us at support@triviamaker.com​
