Getting started

How does nearby play actually work?

Open the same game on two to four phones. RoadPlay automatically looks for other phones nearby also running that game, using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi directly — no internet connection, no router, no room code. Once it finds them, it connects automatically in a couple of seconds.

Why does RoadPlay ask for Local Network access?

That permission is what lets your phone discover and talk to other nearby phones running RoadPlay — it's the same underlying technology as AirDrop. It's used only for finding and connecting to other players nearby; RoadPlay never uses it to reach the internet.

No one else is around — can I still play?

Yes. Every game in RoadPlay also has a pass-and-play mode for one device, so you can hand the phone back and forth between two to four players without needing a second phone at all.

Troubleshooting a connection

Two phones aren't finding each other

Check the following on both phones:

If it's still not connecting after a few seconds, tap Try Again on the search screen — it retries automatically in the background too.

The connection dropped mid-game

RoadPlay tries to reconnect automatically the moment a connection drops, and shows a brief "Reconnecting…" indicator while it does. If it can't reconnect within a few seconds, you'll see an option to return home. Bluetooth-only connections are more sensitive to distance and physical obstructions than Wi-Fi — keeping phones within a few feet of each other and Wi-Fi turned on (even offline) both help.

Where's the rules for a specific game?

Tap the ? button next to any game's title, any time, to see its how-to-play card again.
