Story angles

Lead angle

Pass the gravy, not the App Store password

Zero downloads, zero accounts, zero tech support for Grandma — for everyone at the table but the host.

Don’t spend holiday dinner explaining how to reset an App Store password. One person hosts on an iPhone or iPad; everyone else scans the host’s QR code and joins from their phone’s browser. No app, no account, no ads. Ready to play before the food gets cold.

The ask: holiday gift guides and family tech stories. Dozens of trivia packs, including holiday sets; guests play with just a display name and initials.

Second angle

The screen that combats screen time

Finally, screen time that brings the room together.

Screens aren’t going away, so MingleTrivia flips how they’re used. Instead of six people on six separate feeds, one host taps play, the room scans a QR code, and suddenly everyone is looking up, laughing, and competing. Come for the trivia, stay for the mingle.

The ask: screen-time, parenting, and social-connection stories. Free rooms hold 20 players; up to 40 with MingleTrivia Host.

Party Trivia With Friends

One host. Every phone in play. Host on iPhone or iPad, then let friends scan a QR code and join in their browser. No guest download or account needed.

Bring everyone into trivia night. Host a game with MingleTrivia on iPhone or iPad, and friends join on their own phones using the app or a mobile browser. Browser guests need no app download or account. HOST IN THE APP. FRIENDS JOIN IN THEIR BROWSER. 1. The host opens MingleTrivia, chooses a question set, and creates a room. 2. Guests in the room scan the lobby QR code. Friends anywhere else join with the room code, shared by text or email. 3. Enter a display name and join the lobby. Safari and Chrome browser guests play alongside guests using the app. 4. When the host starts, everyone sees the question and answer choices on their own screen. Choose an answer and press Submit Answer before time runs out. Correct answers earn points, with bonuses for speed. Compare scores between rounds and see who finishes on top. Keep your browser tab open to join the host's next game. 50 QUESTION SETS. 2,500 QUESTIONS. Explore 15 categories, including general knowledge, movies, music, TV, science, sports, geography, history, food, and nature. Search for a topic, save favorite categories, and choose your difficulty.
