A music quiz for your stream, where the whole chat plays
Hitify Play turns a song quiz into something your chat can join. You show the host screen on stream, viewers scan a QR code or open a link on their own phones, and everyone guesses the year of the same song at the same moment.
Free to try. Whoever starts the game logs in with an email code, no password. Players who join a party room need no account and no app.
The host screen is a regular web page: a QR code, a 4 letter room code, a board and the songs. You share it the way you share any window, and viewers need no account and no download. The app sets no player limit, so the size of the room is up to your community rather than to a seat count.
Most streamers will want Party room: Year Rush, because every viewer locks in a year at once and the closest guess wins the round. Party room: Timeline works too, but it is built around turns, so it suits a smaller group of regulars better than a full chat. Pick the page below that matches where your audience is.

How to run it for your chat in four steps
- 1
Open the host screen
On the computer you stream from, go to hitify.app/host, sign in with an email code and pick a deck.
- 2
Pick how your chat plays
Choose Party room: Year Rush, where everyone answers at once, or Party room: Timeline, where players take turns.
- 3
Show the room and share the link
Capture the browser window so viewers see the QR code and the 4 letter room code, and paste hitify.app/j/ plus the code in your chat.
- 4
Play and reveal live
The song plays on the host screen, viewers answer on their own phones, and the reveal and leaderboard appear on your stream.
The timeline in one look
A timeline is a row of songs in release order. You hear a new song, never its year, and decide where it fits between the songs already on the row. Get it right and the row grows.
What streamers and communities should know
Viewers need nothing but a browser
No account, no download and no sign-up for players. They open a link or scan a QR code, type a name and play from a phone or a laptop.
The host screen is a normal web page
You show it with window capture, display capture or a screen share. There is no plugin, overlay or chat bot, and none is needed.
The app sets no player limit
The whole chat can join one room. Year Rush suits big crowds best, because everyone answers at the same time.
Frequently asked questions
What is a music quiz for streamers?
It is a Hitify Play party room that you host on your computer and show on stream. A song plays without its year, your viewers answer on their own phones, and the host screen shows the reveal and the leaderboard for everyone watching.
How many viewers can play at once?
The app sets no player limit. Year Rush is the mode for a big chat because everyone answers together. Do a short test round before your first big stream, because how well a very large room feels also depends on everyone's connection.
Do I need an OBS plugin, an overlay or a chat bot?
No. Hitify has no plugin, overlay or chat bot. The host screen is a normal web page that you show with window capture, display capture or a screen share, and viewers join with a QR code or a link you paste in chat.
What does it cost?
It is free to try, and popular public decks are free to play. If you turn your own playlist into a deck, the first 100 cards of that deck are free.
Which platforms does it work with?
Anywhere you can show a screen and post a link: a live stream, a Discord call, a video meeting or a forum thread. Hitify is not connected to any of these platforms; it is a web page you share.
