Lesson 15 of 15

Showing the score on a TV

Show on TV puts the game on a bigger screen: big scores, a crown on the leader, whose turn it is, the last play and, if you score on the board, the board itself. It updates by itself the moment you save a turn on your phone. It's part of Tileside Pro.

The TV view of a game: Maya 36 and Theo 30 in big numbers, the last play HAT, and the board with HOUSE, QUIZ, ZAP and HAT.
What the TV shows, from the sample game at tileside.app/live/demo.
  1. 1On your phone, during a game, tap Show on TV, then Show on TV again in the panel that opens. You get a 6-letter code and a QR code.
  2. 2On the TV, open its web browser, go to tileside.app/live and type the code with the remote. Or scan the QR code with any phone or tablet.
  3. 3Keep scoring on your phone as usual. The TV catches up after every turn, all evening, even when you start a new game.
