Features
Everything you need to run worship music
From one musician reading a chord chart on stage to a room of a thousand following the same slide.
On stage
The reading experience
This is the part people use while holding a microphone. It gets the most care.
Chords above the words
One engine renders chord-over-lyric identically on iOS, Android and the web, so what you rehearse with is what you perform with.
Transpose and switch instrument
Change key or move between guitar, keyboard and ukulele voicings. Chord diagrams are there when you want them, gone when you don't.
Lyrics-only mode
Songs that don't officially carry chords render as clean lyrics, and any singer can hide chords entirely for a plain reading view.
Made for your hands
Controls sit on the left or right to match the hand you have free — the header turns over to match — and the lyrics align to suit. Font size and colour adjust, with contrast clamped so a choice can't become unreadable.
Nashville numbers
Tap 123 on the rail and the chords become scale degrees — 1, 4, 5, 6- — so the band can play one chart in any key. The song's key sits under the title whenever chords are showing.
Your own notes
Keep a note on any song — the capo, who takes the second verse, where to repeat — with headings, bold, italics, underline and colour. Notes stay on your device and are never sent to us.
A recording to learn from
Where a song has a reference video, the ▶ in the reader opens it on your phone.
Stays awake, stays put
The screen won't sleep mid-song, and nothing modal interrupts a live performance. The lyric colours start from your phone's light or dark mode, and follow it until you choose your own.
Right-to-left
Hebrew, Arabic and Urdu render right-to-left while the controls stay where your thumb expects them.
The library
Songs you can rely on
Approved, versioned, and on your device before you need it.
Approval before publication
Every song, chord set, translation and transliteration is a request that a manager approves. Nothing reaches the public library unreviewed.
Versioned releases
The library publishes as numbered versions. Apps check for updates and pull them down; content updates never require an app-store release.
Genuinely offline
Downloaded libraries live on the device. Venue Wi-Fi is unreliable and it does not matter — the performance never depends on the network.
Find it the way you remember it
One search box takes a song number — or any part of one — a title, a line of the lyrics, or the name of anyone credited: lyricist, composer, music director or artist.
Ready from the first launch
A short setup asks which song libraries and which Bible you want, and downloads them. An English Bible ships inside the app, so it reads with no connection at all from the very first time you open it.
20 languages
Pick the libraries you want on your device. Songs link across languages as translations, so you can move between them.
Transliterations
Read a song in a script you know even when you don't read the original. Search understands them too — a romanized query finds the song in its native script.
Bible reader
A built-in Bible — the Berean Standard Bible in English and the 1910 Malayalam Bible — with reference and keyword search, search hits paired against your default version, and highlights you add with a double tap.
Live
Moving the room together
Organization features — the ones that make a service run.
Live song push
The leader pushes a song and it opens on every device in a second or two. Everyone is notified once when the event goes live; after that the room just follows.
Run of show
Plan the service ahead: songs and individual verses, Bible readings, announcements, prayer requests, sermon and speaker slides. Reorder by dragging, then cast each one when you reach it.
Two languages at once
A slide can carry a verse plus its transliteration or translation underneath, so a mixed-language room reads the same thing together.
Polls and quizzes
Ask the room a question and watch answers arrive live, or run a scored quiz with a leaderboard. Prepare them in advance and drop them into the run of show.
Big screen
The same cast renders full-screen for a projector or TV, in step with everyone's phone.
Parallel sessions
One event can run several sessions live at the same time — main hall, youth, children — each with its own leader and its own run of show.
The console
Vercast Studio
A separate tablet app for whoever runs the service. Free on the App Store and Google Play, and the same account as everything else — sign in and your organizations are already there.
Preview before it goes out
Load the next item into Preview and check it there. Press Take and it becomes Program — what the room is actually looking at. Nothing reaches anyone until you take it, so a wrong verse or a mistyped name never leaves the desk.
The run of show, in order
Songs, readings, announcements and ceremonies sit in one list you can reorder mid-service. Each row says whose slide it is — the name on a birthday, the theme of a sermon — so you can tell one from another at a glance.
Everything a service puts on screen
Songs with chords, Bible verses in two versions side by side, announcements, offering details with a scannable code, prayer requests, testimonies, birthdays, baptisms, communion, title cards and obituaries.
Polls, quizzes and a question queue
Ask the room something and show the answers live. People join from their own phones, and you decide when results appear.
Works when the internet does not
Songs and Bibles stay on the device, so searching never waits on a network. With no connection at all you can still open the console and run the room.
Built for one pair of hands
Controls sit under your dominant hand, the desk stays dark so it does not glow at the person beside you, and every action is deliberate — there is no undo in front of a congregation.
The big screen
Vercast TV
A free display app for Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV and Roku. It shows what your operator casts from Studio — and it is a display, not a source: it needs Studio on the same network to drive it.
Whatever the desk puts on screen
Song lyrics with chords, Bible verses in two languages side by side, sermon titles, announcements, countdown timers, offering QR codes, polls and quizzes — full screen, the moment the operator takes it.
No account, no internet
The TV pairs with Studio over your own Wi-Fi: scan the code on screen and you are connected. Nothing to sign in to and no round trip to anybody's cloud, so the service still runs when the building's internet is down.
Read from the back row
Every slide is laid out for a room rather than a desk — large type, high contrast, and twelve themes including four with animated backgrounds.
Cuts, mixes and dips
The operator drives the transition by hand, so a change of slide looks intentional rather than abrupt.
Try it before you pair anything
Press Select on the attract screen and a reel of 27 sample slides plays — song, verse, timer, announcement, poll, quiz and the rest — with no second device and no setup.
The scripts your congregation reads
Lyrics and Bible text render in Malayalam, Hindi, Tamil and other complex scripts, with two languages on screen at once where the operator wants them.
Organizations
Running your church or ministry
Multi-tenant, verified, and governed by roles.
Verified organizations
Claim your organization, brand it with a logo, and get a public page people can find.
Members and roles
Approve members and appoint the people who can author, review, publish or run events. Every privileged action is written to an audit trail.
Reusable songbooks
On Enterprise, curate a songbook once and assign it to any event, and publish one publicly so it can be shared beyond your members.
Events and discovery
Schedule events with images and venues. Members see them in the app; public events can be discovered by anyone nearby.
Join by code or QR
On Enterprise, people who aren't members can join a specific event with a code or by scanning a QR at the door. Every session has its own code too, so the poster outside the evening session puts people straight into that session.
Arrive and join
Attach a venue to an event and members who opt in get a “you're at the venue — tap to join” notification when they arrive, even with the app closed. The check runs entirely on their device — we send the app the venue's coordinates and never receive anyone's location.
Author pages
Songwriters keep a public page showcasing their work across the library.
Free for singers. Free for small organizations.
The reading experience is never paywalled. Organizations pay only once they run live events at scale.
