Introduction
Bingo Buddy is an auto still in the development process (aka BETA). Bingo Buddy simply plays the game for you automatically until you tell it to stop.
|
|
The Interface (GUI)
Because Bingo Buddy is still a beta program, its GUI is simple and to-the-point. It has a AutoPlay button which doubles as a Stop
button, and a simple status bar that lets you know what's going on. It also lists a couple of menu options:
Options and Help. You can learn more about these by reading below.

Menu Options
 |
The Options menu is temporarily limited because it is a Beta program. It offers an opportunity to refer a buddy (tell a friend) about Bingo Buddy and/or request a new feature. |
 |
The Help menu provides instructions on how to use Bingo Buddy, a link to the Play Buddy Help Center, shortcuts to buy and register your copy, and a valuable Troubleshoot and Bug Report feature to use when Bingo Buddy isn't working. But perhaps the most valuable feature here is the auto check at startup which automatically checks for any updates. |

How To Use
- Log on to Yahoo games with your username and password.
- Launch Bingo Buddy when your game opens. Upon entrance it automatically recognizes it and is ready to work.
- Press the autoplay button to have Bingo Buddy complete the games automatically.

|
Optimizing Performance
- Tag team: If you have a specific method of playing and just want to check ocassionally for any missed bingo balls, you may want to play with the Buddy by your side, pressing "autoplay" every once in awhile.

HELP!
It won't recognize the game window
Double-check that you have the newest version available. Do this by using the check for update feature under the Help menu on the Buddy. Also, the "News" section at the top of this page has a link to "Updated Buddies." Here you can see if the Buddy has been recently updated and why.
Now make sure that all the system requirements for the Buddy are met. These include Windows XP or Vista, Internet Explorer, Sun Java, and appropriate display settings.
It won't work
First, go to the Help menu on the Buddy and visit the Troubleshoot page to see if your solution is there. No luck? Select the Bug Report feature under the HELP tab on the Buddy. Fill in the required fields, capture the screen, and then send it. Play Buddy Support will receive it and respond to you via e-mail.
