Follow the Live Service from Any Phone

Service Companion is a public page for people in the seats. One link covers the whole service: the ordered setlist, the slides, and the speaker notes and song lyrics you choose to share. Anyone can open it in a phone browser.

People can read along. They cannot start the service, change what the screens show, or open the church media library.

Browse first. Follow live when you want to.

The link opens on the service as it was saved. People move through Service item, Slides, and Lyrics at their own pace.

While the service is running, Follow live appears beside the title. It stays off until someone turns it on. The live page then shows what is on screen:

• The current slide stays at the top
• Speaker notes, when you have published them, list that item with the current slide first under the slide
• Lyrics, when you have published them, list the song with chord names in their own color and the current section highlighted
• Drawings on that slide appear the same way they appear on the church screens

Turn Follow live off, or wait until the service ends, and the page returns to the place they were browsing. If a slide was added after they opened the link, one refresh picks it up.

Choose what the link includes

In the service builder, open Service companion:

1. Write an Attendee summary, or leave it blank
2. Turn on Show speaker notes after you have read them
3. Turn on Show song lyrics when your church may share them
4. Select Enable companion link and choose Save
5. Copy the link, download a QR code, or make a one-slide QR presentation for the walk-in loop

Slides are included when the link is on. Speaker notes and song lyrics stay off until you enable them. A song with no lyric sheet still shows its slides.

Share the address with the people you mean to reach. The companion page asks search engines not to list it. Anyone with the link can still open it.

Who it is for

• People who want the words in their hands
• A preacher who wants slide notes on a phone, without a presenter login
• Musicians who want the lyric sheet and chord names, following the slide that is up

Presenter views stay the stage tools for a signed-in operator. Service Companion is the public follow-along for one service. The operator still runs the room from live presentation. Songs with chords come from your song library.
