How to Play
- Press Start Game. A new number comes up every 8 seconds.
- Listen and look. Each number is read out loud and shown in big white letters.
- Watch your card. When a number on your card is called, it turns yellow.
- Get five in a row. Across, up and down, or corner to corner. The FREE square in the middle counts.
- Press BINGO! quickly. Other players are trying to win too.
Make the Game Easier
- Numbers coming too fast? Change Speed to Slow or Very slow.
- Hard to see? Choose 1 card. You can also make the whole page bigger. On a computer, hold the Ctrl key and press the + key. On a phone or tablet, spread two fingers apart on the screen.
- Can’t hear the numbers? Turn up the volume. Make sure “Read numbers aloud” has a tick. On an iPhone or iPad, check the small switch on the side is not set to silent.
- Want a calm game? Set Other players to “None, just me”.
- Want more of a challenge? Untick “Mark my cards for me” and tap the numbers yourself.
The game keeps count of your wins on this computer, tablet or phone.
Play Bingo With Your Family
You can also play together on a video call, such as FaceTime, Zoom or WhatsApp. It is free too.
- Print the cards. Use our large print bingo cards. Make one card for each person. Mail them, or email them to someone who can print.
- Start the call. Use the app your family already knows.
- Open the caller. One person opens our free bingo caller. It reads the numbers out loud for everyone.
- Go slowly. Set the caller to 12 or 20 seconds. Video calls can run a little behind.
- Check the winner. Each printed card has a set number and a card number. Type both into the caller to check a win.
Bingo Apps: Be Careful
Many bingo apps say they are free. But most of them sell coins once yours run out, and those coins cost real money.
- Look for the words “in-app purchases” before you install an app.
- Ask a family member to turn on purchase approval on your phone or tablet.
- Never give a bingo app or website your Social Security number or bank details.
- Bingo for real money online is legal in only a few places. Read is online bingo legal first.
Ideas for Senior Centers and Care Homes
- Show the free bingo caller on a big TV in the activity room.
- Residents who stay in their rooms can play this game on a tablet.
- For memory care, use one large card, a slow speed and the same five-in-a-row game each time.
- Small prizes work well: a snack, a puzzle book or first in line for lunch.
Prefer a Real Bingo Hall?
Nothing beats a real room, a real caller and friends at your table. Churches, veterans posts and lodges run bingo in most towns, and many play in the afternoon.
