How players join a game
Scan the QR code on the host’s screen, or go to quizzy.earth and type the 8-digit game code. No app or account needed.
Scan the QR code
Point your phone’s camera at the QR code on the host’s screen and open the link. The game code is filled in for you.
Or type the code
Go to quizzy.earth, tap Join a game, and type the 8 digits from the host’s screen into Game Code.
Pick a name
Type a name in Your Name, or tap the dice for a fun one. Then choose an avatar and a color.
Join the game
Tick the box to agree to the terms, then tap Join Game. Your phone waits for the host to start.
If phones can’t reach the game
If the code is right but phones can’t find the game, or keep waiting, the network is usually blocking Quizzy’s live game server. The host’s lobby then says Players can’t join right now, with the reason and what to do.
Try another network
Switch phones from the school or office Wi‑Fi to mobile data. If the host’s screen is the one blocked, move it to a phone’s hotspot. Everyone can be on a different network.
Ask your IT team
School and office networks often block live connections. Send your IT team Allow Quizzy on a school or office network. It lists the exact hosts to allow.
Can I join after the game has started?
Yes, unless it’s a Knockout game. Then you can watch but not play.
Why can’t phones join on our school Wi‑Fi?
The network is probably blocking Quizzy’s live game server. Phones can join on mobile data instead, or your IT team can allow the hosts in Allow Quizzy on a school or office network.
