Google TV: the TipsyRounds TV app
Put trivia on a Google TV with the free TipsyRounds TV app: install it, type its code on your host phone, and the game is on the big screen.

Step 1: Get the free app
On the Google TV, open Search, search TipsyRounds, select TipsyRounds TV and choose Install. Or open TipsyRounds TV on Google Play on your phone or computer, tap Install and pick your TV. It’s free, and it works on Android TV too.

Step 4: Type the code

The TV shows the join QR, the questions, reveals and scores, never host controls. Players join on their own phones: no app for them.

Good to know
- Remote: hold OK (or press Menu) for options: Reload, Start when the TV turns on, and Unlink this TV. Back closes the app.
- Weekly nights at a bar? Link the TV to your venue once and it follows every night you run there (the Pro & Venue plan).
- No casting needed, so it works even on Wi-Fi that blocks casting. If the internet drops, the app reconnects by itself.
- Prefer casting? Chromecast / Google TV (📺 Cast) works too. On a Fire TV or Roku, see the Fire TV or Roku guide.
