Control songs, scripture and video from your phone
Beyond next and back: change the Bible translation, transpose a song, resize verse text and control video from the remote.
Once the phone is paired, the remote mirrors what the desktop is doing. It shows what is on air, and it changes what it offers depending on what you are running.
See what is on air
The top of the remote shows whether the screens are live or on black, and lists the slides of the item that is running.
Scripture
- Switch the translation from a picker. It lists the Bibles installed on the desktop.
- Make the verse text larger or smaller with the font size buttons.
Songs
- Transpose up or Transpose down to change the key, and Reset transpose to go back.
- Follow the song's sections as they go live.
Chord charts and the transposer are part of Premium. See Chord charts and changing key mid-service.
Video
When a clip is playing, the remote becomes a video controller:
- Play, pause and scrub.
- Volume.
- Previous clip and Next clip.
- Repeat modes: one, all or off.
- Playback speed.
Switch what you are controlling
Use the pipeline buttons at the bottom to switch between Song, Bible, slides, video and image, just like the live tabs on the desktop. See Run several pipelines at once.
Draw on the slide
Tap Annotate live slide to draw on what the congregation sees. See Draw on the live screen from your phone.

More in Team & remote
- Keep the band in sync: cues, click and talkbackSend the band a cue on the Stage screen, run a click on their phones, and speak to them through talkback, all from the Team Sync panel.
- Pair a phone as the remoteConnect a phone with a QR code or PIN, give it a role, and approve it at the booth. Works over your Wi-Fi, or over the app's own hotspot on Windows.
- Choose a role for each phone: Pastor, Media Team, Worship Leader or Worship TeamEvery phone you pair gets a role that decides what it may do, so a drummer cannot black out the screen and a pastor can still draw on a verse.
- Draw on the live screen from your phoneUse the pen and highlighter on the remote to point at a verse, circle a word or underline a line while it is on the screens.
