Hi guys,  
On more than one occasion, I have paused the game to skip forward through the questions to check something, but the game does not pause on players phones…allowing them to see future questions.  
Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Garry,

Sorry to hear you’ve encountered an issue. When pausing an Experience, the Mobile View is designed to show the following paused message until the host resumes the game:

![MV_TriviaPaused](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex031/uploads/crowdpurr/original/1X/dfca32ff6dd8e51f70b74bd803f49a0b27783742.png)

However, the Projector View does not currently display a paused message. For instance, if you skip through questions while the Experience is paused, then players will see the questions via the Projector View.

Do you happen to recall if participants may have seen the questions via this view instead?
