Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes. LiveChurch is completely free and every feature comes in the same download.

Do I need internet during the service?

The Bible (KJV, WEB and ASV), free-form slides and the schedule work offline. The internet is used to fetch lyrics of other songs and the theme background images.

Can I project the lyrics of any song?

Yes. Search by title and the program fetches the lyrics from the internet and splits them into slides, which you can still edit. This depends on the lyrics service being available.

Which computers does it run on?

Windows and Linux.

Can I project on a TV or projector?

Yes. Connect the screen, pick the monitor in the program’s footer and the projection opens full screen on it, while you control everything from the main window.

Can a volunteer with no experience operate it?

Everything starts in the search bar: you type, pick the result and check the slide preview before sending it to the big screen.

In which language is the program?

The interface comes in Portuguese, English and Spanish, and each language has its own Bible versions. The screenshots on this page show the Portuguese interface.

Is LiveChurch open source?

Yes. The project is open source and lives on GitHub, at github.com/LiveChurch.

Is the program still in beta?

Yes, and it may have instabilities. We recommend testing before the service.
