How quizzes work
The Quiz automatically opens for participants to join through the Audience Web App at the start time. It begins when the presenter starts the Quiz. Participants are scored as they answer the questions. After the voting period, the voting results display on the Projector Panel and the answers are revealed to the participants. At the end of the Quiz, a leaderboard shows the winner and the participants’ scores.
About starting a Quiz
During an event, you can start a Quiz:
- From the Admin Panel: For larger events, an organizer might use this option to manage quizzes and other sessions for multiple presenters.
- From the Projector Panel: A presenter can select Start Quiz directly from the Projector Panel. Solo presenters might prefer this option.

About Quiz paces
A Quiz uses one of the following paces:
Presenter pace with a timer
By default, a Quiz runs on Presenter pace with a 10-second timer for answering each question. The Quiz begins when the Admin or Presenter selects Start Quiz.
The Audience Web App is synchronised with the Projector Panel and Admin Panel. All interfaces show the same question at the same time.
The countdown for the question also displays on the Audience Web App and the Projector Panel. When the timer for voting on a question runs out (10-60 seconds), the Live results display for 10 seconds, and the answer is then automatically revealed for another 10 seconds. If you need more time to explain the answer, you can pause the Quiz. The audience automatically moves to the next question together. Participants cannot select Next to move to the next question on their own.
Conversely, if you wish to skip to the answer reveal screen, just click on the arrow to the right of the screen. The answer reveal screen similarly lasts for 10 seconds and can be paused or skipped to the next question.
After the answer reveal screen, the audience automatically moves to the next question together. Participants cannot select Next to move to the next question on their own.
Presenter pace without a timer
When setting up a Quiz on Presenter pace, you can choose not to time answers. The Quiz begins when the Admin or Presenter selects Start Quiz.
The Audience Web App is synchronised with the Projector Panel and Admin Panel. All interfaces show the same question at the same time.
With the timer field set to No time limit, the Presenter or Admin fully controls the pace of the Quiz by clicking through to the next question. Participants cannot select Next to move to the next question on their own. The Admin or Presenter must manually reveal the answer to each question.
Audience pace
This mode gives full control to attendees. Each person works through the Quiz independently and on their own time, without being synced to the Projector Panel. Only the Admin Panel and Projector Panel are synchronised at all times during the Quiz.
The Admin or Presenter can reveal the correct answer to a question at any time during a Session. Attendees only learn their scores after the Admin or Presenter reveals the correct answers. Note that the Leaderboard feature is not supported for this Quiz pace.
Scoring and results
When the Quiz is completed, participants see their individual scores on their Audience Web App. The overall results display on the Admin Panel and Projector Panel.
