BIGUPSCREEN

Screens peopleactually watch.

BigUpScreen runs the screens in your bar, shop, station or venue: quizzes people play on their phones, offers and menus, live football scores, live departures, countdowns and weather. All in your own brand, changing through the day, and run from your phone.

Try it free for 7 days: one screen and 225 ready-made questions. No card needed.

We’re in beta with a small number of venues. Tell us about yours and we’ll be in touch.

Quizzes and play-along

Quiz night, without the quizmaster.

Put a quiz on any screen and let the room play. People scan the code, sign in with their email and answer on their phones. Faster right answers score more, and the leaderboard pops up after every round.

  • Games run back to back on their own, all night
  • Live leaderboard after each round, then the winners
  • Questions reach phones one at a time, so nobody reads ahead
  • Or keep it simple: shout it out, play on paper, or in your stream chat

Questions people ask.

Do I need any special equipment?

No. Anything with a web browser works: a smart TV, a streaming stick with a browser, a laptop plugged into the TV over HDMI, or a projector. For streams, add your screen’s link as a browser source.

Can I use it on Twitch, YouTube or TikTok?

Yes. Add your screen link as a browser source in OBS, Streamlabs or Upstream. Use the 16:9 layout for Twitch and YouTube and the 9:16 layout for TikTok and Reels.

How do people answer the trivia?

On their phones, if you switch on play-along: they scan the code on screen, pick a name and tap their answer, and a live leaderboard keeps score. Or keep it simple: shout it out, write it down for a table quiz, or type A, B, C or D in your stream chat.

Can it show live train and Luas times?

Yes. Pick a station or stop and the screen shows real-time Irish Rail or Luas departures, refreshed every 30 seconds. For flights, buses or anything else, type the times in or paste them from a spreadsheet.

Can it show live football scores?

Yes. Pick your leagues, from the Premier League and League of Ireland to the Champions League, and the screen shows the big match, today’s scores, results, fixtures and the table, updated every 30 seconds while games are on. Pick your teams and they’re highlighted, with a big GOAL! when they score. Teams are shown in their colours rather than club badges. You can add your own matches too.

Can one TV show different things through the day?

Yes. A schedule gives the TV one link that switches screen by day and time: the lunch menu at midday, offers in the afternoon, the quiz at night. Set it once and nobody has to touch the TV.

Can the screens carry my own brand?

Yes, on any paid plan: your name or logo, your colours and your fonts, on every screen and on the play-along page. Upload your logo and we pick up its colours, or give us your website and we read your colours and fonts.

Is it family friendly?

The starter questions are, and a safety filter keeps bad language off the screen. You can add your own blocked words too.

What is BigUpAI?

The assistant built into BigUpScreen. Give it a topic, a person or a release and it searches the web, then writes trivia questions or a whole countdown with facts and news. It checks its work, but it can still get things wrong, so you review everything before you publish.

Can I use my own pictures and music?

Yes, as long as you have the right to use them. For music, use royalty-free tracks or music you’re licensed to play in public.

Can I cancel?

Any time. Your plan runs to the end of the period you’ve paid for, then your screens pause. You can also delete your account and everything in it yourself, from the account page.

Are you connected to the brands, games, films and artists on screen?

No. BigUpScreen is independent and isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by the companies, publishers, studios, labels or artists whose names appear in quizzes or countdowns, or with any football club or league. Live travel times come from Irish Rail and Transport Infrastructure Ireland’s public data, weather from MET Norway, and football data from API-Sports.
