Join from an invite
- Open the room link from your host, or open the app and enter the room code.
- Enter the display name you want to use.
- Select Join Room.
- Check that your name appears in the waiting room.
- Mark yourself ready and wait for the host to start.
- Type the shared passage when the race begins.
What happens after joining
The waiting room shows the other players and the live room status. Once the host starts, you see the common passage and your progress is sent to the room.
If the room does not open
Check the code carefully and make sure the room is still waiting and has not expired. A host can create a fresh room if the original race has already started or ended.
Practical tips
- ✎Room codes are easier to share when copied directly from the waiting screen.
- ✎Use a name your friends will recognise, without entering private information.
