How to Run Let's Go Karaoke

Built-in YouTube karaoke search, audience-as-judges scoring, and a big-screen Karaoke Winners podium.

1

Select Karaoke

From the game launcher, pick Karaoke. You will see the Karaoke host screen with the quick-actions toolbar at the top: Search YouTube, Hide / Show Singers, Audio: Host / Audience / Both.

2

Choose Where the Audio Plays

Tap Audio: Host in the toolbar and pick where the karaoke video should play.

  • Host device only (default) - plug your phone or laptop into the venue speakers and the host iframe is the sound source.
  • Audience screen only - if the TV has good speakers, let the big screen play the song.
  • Both - if both devices share a sound system.

Your choice is saved on this device so you set it once.

Players Join & Sign Up to Sing

Players scan the QR code on the audience screen, enter their name, the song they want to sing, and optionally upload a photo for the Karaoke Winners podium. They land in the queue automatically.

Behind the scenes, the host's queue auto-suggests a YouTube karaoke version for every player-submitted song. You can swap the suggestion with Change or tap Attach on weaker suggestions to confirm.

4

Start a Singer

Tap Start on the next queued singer to move them to the "Now singing" card. The audience screen flips to the big iframe with a Stand by overlay until you press Play.

When the singer is at the mic, tap Play song. The video plays on the big screen (or your host device, depending on your audio routing). Tap Pause song to pause if anything goes wrong.

5

Open Voting & Tap Done When the Song Finishes

Tap the singer's name on the "Now singing" card to open voting. The audience phones get the 5-dimension scoring screen: song choice, performance, vocals, stage presence, wow factor.

When the singer is done, tap Done singing - next. Voting closes and the queue advances.

6

Reveal the Karaoke Winners

When the last singer has finished, open the More menu and tap Reveal the night. The audience screen plays the Karaoke Winners podium - gold, silver, bronze, with photos and song titles. Confetti.

7

Host Sings Too (Optional)

Tap Search YouTube on the toolbar to open the search modal. Type any song - results are ranked so the best karaoke version is at the top. Three actions on every row:

  • Star to save as a favourite for one-tap re-queueing.
  • Queue singer opens Add Singer pre-attached with the song.
  • I will sing queues you (named "Host") with the song bound to your slot.

Favourites are stored on your device per licence and survive every session.

Pro Tips

  • Singer Photos - encourage players to upload a photo when they register. The podium ceremony looks 10x better with faces.
  • Brave Soul mode - first-time singers can toggle protected mode when they join. The audience still scores them but you can tell the room to go easy.
  • Show / Hide Singers - the audience screen shows the upcoming queue on the side. Toggle it off for a moment of suspense before revealing.
  • Hype reactions - players can fire emoji reactions and a one-time "hype" boost from their phones. The big screen reacts live.
  • Sing-Off (beta) - in Karaoke Settings (More menu) you can enable a Sing-Off finale where the top two singers go again. Most fun on small intimate nights.
