Put a styled countdown on the main screen so the room knows exactly when the service begins.
Last checked 1 min read
A countdown is a presentation whose clock is live. ChristChant includes timer decks in several styles, and the time updates on every screen it is shown on.
- Open Marketplace → Presentation Bundles → Timers and add the style you like.
- Open it from the Presentations tab of the bottom panel.
- Set how long it runs, then put it live on the main screen.
- When it reaches zero, move to your first song or welcome slide.
