🔔 Buzzer Mode — 100% Free

A Virtual Trivia Buzzer for Zoom Game Nights

Read questions aloud on any video call and players race to buzz in on their phones. First buzzer answers — miss it, and control steals down the queue with a live reaction-time readout on the shared screen. No app download, no account for players.

Built Like a Real Game Show

🔔

First-to-Buzz Races

Every phone becomes a buzzer. Server-timed to the millisecond, so the fastest thumb genuinely wins — with reaction-time gaps shown on screen ("+0.42s").

🔄

Steals

Wrong answer? Control passes automatically to the next player in the buzz queue — pub-quiz style. The queue stays open so late buzzers can still join the steal line.

🎤

Answer Out Loud or On Device

Verbal mode: players buzz and answer aloud while you judge with full or half points. Device mode: the buzz winner answers on their phone, scored automatically.

🤫

Jump-the-Gun Lockout

Optional strict rules: arm the buzzer only when you finish reading. Anyone who buzzes early eats a 2-second penalty — just like the real shows.

Fastest Finger Award

The winner screen crowns the player who buzzed first most often — a second trophy for the quickest reflexes in the room.

🔊

Game-Show Sounds

A bright buzz-in ding the instant someone locks in, and a time's-up buzzer — played from the shared screen so the whole call hears it.

📺

Share the Big Screen

Screen-share the presenter view on your call — buzz order, reaction times, and leaderboards in real time. A view-only link works without any login.

📱

Zero Friction for Players

Players scan a QR code or enter a game code in their phone browser. No app, no account, nothing to install mid-call.

🏆

Full Trivia Engine Underneath

Rounds, team mode, leaderboards, custom branding, CSV question import, and results export — everything from regular trivia works in Buzzer Mode.

Screen-share the presenter view on your call, and drop the join code in the chat. Players are in within seconds.

Read each question aloud. Phones light up as buzzers, the first name pops on screen with the ding, and steals cascade on misses.
