Version 4.9.0 - Bingo Updates & Bug Fixes

NEW FEATURES :star2:

  • :stop_button: Customizable Bingo Patterns - Customize which bingo patterns to play in your bingo games. Choose from eight total patterns including Rows, Columns, Diagonals, X Pattern, Corners, Center, Perimeter, and Full Card. Add as many or as few as desired to your bingo game!
  • :scroll: Dynamic Bingo Card Footer - The footer on all Participant View bingo cards now dynamically updates to display which bingo patterns are enabled. This informs the participant of which bingos can be played. This footer can now also be hidden.
  • :cross_mark_button: Optional Free Square - Add or remove the Free Square in your bingo games.
  • :check_box_with_check: Auto-Finish Bingo Game - Bingo games can now auto-finish in any playback mode (previously only in Fully Automatic Mode) based on how many bingos are earned (e.g. ending a bingo game immediately after the first bingo is earned).
  • :check_box_with_check: Bingo Game Settings - Various bingo game settings on the Experience Dashboard have been updated (e.g. Bingo Game Format) and moved into the Bingo Format tab to improve clarity.

For more details on the updated bingo features, see the Help Center article Bingo Game Settings - Bingo Format.

This update is the first round in a significant bingo overhaul that includes several critical updates and new features.

Bug Fixes :lady_beetle:

  • Fixed an issue added in 4.8.9 where YouTube videos added as Question Media could sometimes not be edited after being added.
  • Fixed an issue added in 4.8.9 where editing a question’s body, question type, and per-question time all in the same update would fail.
  • Fixed an issue added in 4.8.9 where added answer option media (e.g. GIFs, images) were not stretching to fill the answer option box on the Experience Dashboard.
  • Fixed an issue on the Presentation View where the lower-left corner QR code to join would not display if the host displayed the rankings when the experience is in the initial or countdown state.
  • Fixed an issue where if a host removed an experience, any open Participant Views to the experience would hang in the Winner Reveal state. The Participant View now redirects to the “Enter Code” page (i.e. crowd.live).
  • Fixed an issue on the Experience Dashboard → Settings → Custom Branding → Name & Description form where editing the title of an experience and pressing the Enter key would cause the entire page to refresh.
  • Minor styling improvements on answer options media and Participant View bingo cards.
