설명

This app is designed to randomly pick Bingo numbers and display called numbers. You can mirror to an Apple TV, output to a projector via HDMI, share the app window to a group video app, or just show it on from your computer display. You can have the app pick random numbers or click and unclick numbers chosen from your Bingo ball picking cage. The app can optionally say the numbers aloud. Controls are simple. Tap the timer button to have the app auto-pick numbers every 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, or 15 seconds.

SWITCH USERS: Users with physical challenges can choose a random new ball with the switch button, or press "1" on an attached keyboard.

WANT MORE THEMES? Bingo Caller+ is a better version of this app which lets you choose from various seasonal themes. It's in the App Store.

I miss all the color options for card matching.

Gosh I really loved the simplicity of this app and I’ve used it for a while for my bingo nights but they recently did an update and now there’s only three different theme colors. It was really nice before when I could match the color of the screen to the proper bingo card we are playing so hopefully they will add more colors again soon. Otherwise this app has been great and very useful.

I don’t recall this free version ever having more than 3 themes. You might be thinking of Bingo Caller+.

Nearly perfect bingo-calling app!

There are other bingo-calling apps out there. You can pay, get banner ads, sent to Safari for ads, etc. None of them compare to this simple yet beautifully efficient app!

We used this for a school bingo night to help young children and those for whom English is a second language to make sure they got the right numbers. We projected the app onto a big screen and everyone was a big fan of having that visual cue!

We actually used a physical bingo cage to choose the numbers so it was nice the way the app allowed us to just record the numbers too.

Two suggestions which would really make the app perfect:

1. Allow the ability to turn off all sounds. The voice reading of the numbers is great EXCEPT when the iPad or iPhone is also driving a speaker (wired or Bluetooth) and you don’t want to interrupt the music. As we were calling out the numbers over a mic we didn’t need the app to read them out anyway.

2. The ability to hide the control buttons in the top row when you are using an external screen is brilliant, but it is also flaky. We couldn’t get it to work consistently: sometimes it hides, other times it shows, and it seems to be very laggy if it even responds. As this is probably an Apple limitation I don’t hold this against the app, but it is a promise somewhat unfulfilled.

Anyway, a brilliantly simple yet fully-featured app for calling and/or displaying bingo games. Thanks!

Good app. Do very good with no ads.

Using this app with my iPad. I would have rated this a 5 star but when using this app through mirroring whether it’s TV or Apple TV the caller sound will not work. Doesn’t happen often but often enough where you’d have to announce the ball verbally. It does seem to work flawlessly if you set it up wired.
