AirParty

Your TV becomes the board. The phone in your hand becomes the controller. Connect a host iPhone to the TV and the shared table appears on the big screen, while each player's own cards and controls stay private in their hand. No console, no controllers to buy. ■ SET UP IN A MINUTE 1. The host connects over AirPlay or HDMI and opens a party. 2. Friends join from the nearby list, scan the QR code on the TV, or type the party code. 3. Pick a game and start. No internet required. Devices talk to each other directly, so it still works at a cabin with no signal. No accounts, no sign-in. ■ SEVEN GAMES · UP TO 8 PLAYERS · Slot Dash — 1–4 players · 10–15 min · Yacht Dice — 1–8 players · 20–30 min · Bell Rush — 2–8 players · 6–10 min · Yutnori — 2–8 players · 10–15 min · Zoo Stack — 1–8 players · 5–10 min · Lane Bowling — 1–8 players · 10–20 min · Catch the Thief — 3–8 players · 4–7 min Shake to roll, swing to throw, tilt to aim — with haptics in your hand. ■ GOOD FOR Family gatherings, holiday parties, a rented cabin with friends, a club trip. No board game box to pack, nobody stuck explaining the rules. ■ WHAT YOU NEED · Host — an iPhone running iOS 18 or later · A TV connection — an AirPlay-capable TV or Apple TV, or a USB-C / Lightning HDMI adapter · Players — an iPhone running iOS 18 or later (up to 8). Short on phones? Up to four players can share one. Only Bell Rush and Slot Dash need one phone each, because the bell is a simultaneous race and Slot Dash wants four hands on four triggers. This app requires a TV connection. It cannot be played on the host device alone.
