Presenting on stage

Open a setlist on a tablet or laptop and present it — charts sized to fit the screen, dark mode for dim venues, swipe or tap to move through the set.

Starting present mode

From a setlist page, hit Present. If any song has more than one key option (say, a capo'd guitar key and an open key), you'll confirm which one to use before you start — after that, it's full screen for the rest of the set.

Key picker, column layout, dark mode, and song progress — all in the top bar.

While presenting

  • Tap the arrows (or swipe left/right) to move between songs
  • Change key on the fly if the leader calls an audible — the top-left key picker updates the chart instantly
  • Toggle 1 or 2 columns, and light or dark mode, from the top bar
  • The song list icon shows where you are in the set and lets you jump to any song directly

Presenting together (live sync)

One person leads, everyone else follows automatically — the worship leader changes song or turns the page, and every synced device updates within a couple of seconds. No one needs to be told "page 3 of song 4" over a shoulder-tap.

Hit the Sync button in the top bar, then Start synced session. Anyone else who opens this same setlist in present mode — a band member who already has the app, or a guest who doesn't — sees a banner offering to Join, and from then on their song and page follow yours.

For a guest who doesn't have the setlist open yet, show this QR code or send the link — they land straight on the Join banner below.

Joining a synced session

If you already have access to the setlist, just open present mode normally — if someone's already leading, you'll see who and a one-tap Join button, no link needed.

Reached this setlist on your own, with no link at all — the Join banner still finds you.

A guest scanning the QR code or opening the share link lands directly on present mode for that setlist and sees the same banner. Either way, joining is identical from there.

Song and page match the leader exactly. Tap Leave sync any time to go back to navigating yourself.
Your key is always your own — joining a synced session never changes it. Handy if the leader sings in one key and you're playing guitar with a capo in another.

Arrangement and performance notes

If a song has a built arrangement (see Setlists), present mode shows the whole running order in a banner at the top, and any note on a specific step — "acoustic only, then build" — appears both there and injected directly into that section's own header in the chart, so it's visible right when you're playing through it.

The note on this Bridge repeat shows in the banner and right on the Bridge header itself.

Long charts

If a chart is too long to fit on one screen, present mode paginates it automatically — you'll see a page count next to the song counter, and the same swipe/tap gestures move between pages before moving to the next song.

Present mode works offline once a setlist has been saved for offline use — handy if your venue has unreliable Wi-Fi. See the Save offline button on any setlist page.
