Make the wait shorter with your waiting room TV: questions for everyone

Your waiting room screen shows general knowledge questions. Anyone who wants to scans the QR code and plays from their phone; anyone who doesn’t just watches. No sound, no apps and no personal details asked.

Waiting with nothing to do is what weighs most

A waiting room usually has a TV on some channel and old magazines. People look at their phones or the clock, and the wait feels long even when it isn’t.

Quizá turns that screen into something you can follow without effort: a question every few seconds, the answer and a fun fact. You dip in and out of the game when they call you, no commitment.

How it works

1

Put Quizá on the screen

Open quizatv.com/tv on the waiting room TV and pair it with your dashboard using a 6-letter code.

2

Choose themes and difficulty

General knowledge, film, music, sport or kids. In surgeries and clinics, turn on healthcare mode.

3

Whoever wants can play

With the QR code on the screen, each person joins from their phone. Everyone else can follow the questions without doing anything.

What you get in waiting rooms

No sound

The screen plays no audio: it does not bother people who prefer silence or those waiting for bad news.

Healthcare waiting room mode

Automatically leaves out questions that could be sensitive. Only those marked as suitable for a waiting room come up.

Nobody is obliged to play

The screen is useful even if nobody scans the QR code: people read the question and think of the answer.

No sign-up or personal data

Whoever plays picks a nickname. No name, email or phone number is asked for.

Service notices between questions

With the Pro plan, your own ads between questions: opening hours, new services or waiting room rules.

How to use it

Surgeries and clinics

With healthcare mode and gentle themes.

Accountants, notaries and law firms

General knowledge for the time before the appointment.

Garages, MOT centres and car dealerships

While the car is being checked, customers have something to do.

A sample question

What is the process by which plants make their food using light called?

  • A Photosynthesis (correct answer)
  • B Pollination
  • C Respiration
  • D Germination

💡 Plants use light, water and carbon dioxide to produce sugars and oxygen.

What you need

  • A TV (Smart TV with a browser, Fire TV Stick, Chromecast or a mini PC) and an internet connection. You pair it with a 6-letter code in a couple of minutes.
  • A screen visible from the seats. If the TV is already in the room, you need nothing else.
  • The screen plays in the language of its list, and each player can set their phone to another: Spanish, English, Catalan, Basque, Galician, French and Portuguese.

A free screen to try it out

The free plan includes 1 screen and the whole question bank. If you need several waiting rooms, sites or local content, the Institutional plan is tailor-made.

Frequently asked questions

Can people who don’t want to use their phone take part?

Yes, as spectators: the screen shows the question, the time and the answer, so it can be followed without a phone.

What data does it keep about players?

A nickname and a random identifier stored on their phone to count the points. No name, email or phone number is asked for.

Can sensitive topics be avoided?

Yes, with healthcare waiting room mode: only questions marked as suitable come up. Even so, you choose the themes for each screen.

Does it work without anyone controlling it?

Yes. The questions follow one another by themselves throughout the waiting room’s opening hours.

How much does it cost?

The free plan includes 1 screen. Pro costs €19 per screen per month and adds several screens, your own questions and ads.
