What both do

ProPresenter covers all of this, and so do we. It is listed here rather than in the table because a row that is a yes on both sides is not a reason to choose either one.

  • Bible search and verse slides
  • Song lyrics and a song library
  • Projector output
  • A stage display
  • Livestream graphics
  • Custom templates and slide design
  • A countdown timer
  • Remote control from a phone
  • Your own backgrounds and music
  • Lower thirds over the stream

Show one passage in every selected language

Type a reference and it appears on the live projector in every language you selected. You do not have to repeat the search for each translation.

Show content on every screen

Set up the projector and stage display, then send stream graphics to OBS or vMix.

  • Projector and stage display each open a link
  • OBS or vMix take the stream as a browser source
  • Choose the outputs your service needs
  • No sign-in on output screens

A template builder for verses and lyrics

Drag the verse, reference, lyric or picture onto a 16:9 frame. Fonts, colours and layout are yours, on screen and on stream.

Drop a .pro file or a whole .proBundle from ProPresenter 7 and we import the lyrics in slide order.

Pick your languages and every verse appears stacked on one slide.

  • Same order on projector and stream
  • Turn a language off in one click
  • Over a thousand translations from public archives
  • Nothing to download or upload

A stage display and timers built for the platform

  • Current slide, next slide, clock and running order
  • Countdowns you can adjust mid-service
  • Private messages to the platform

Run it from your phone, from anywhere in the room

Open the session on your phone to move slides or fire a name card. No app to install, and a second operator sees the same live slide.

When to stay with ProPresenter

ProPresenter has two decades of production tools, and some rooms suit it better.

  • You need an installed app on every plan. Our offline desktop app comes with Pro.
  • You build heavy productions: layered media, cued motion backgrounds, masks, network video.
  • You drive slides from a lighting or playback desk over MIDI or timecode.
  • Your team knows it, the licences are bought, and it does what Sunday needs.

Also compare our stage timer with a dedicated timer, or switching from a free, open-source presenter, EasyWorship or Proclaim.

Add a Bible translation

Add the Bible versions you need and display them together on the same slide. Switch languages without stopping your service.

Questions about switching

Is LlamaPresenter a good ProPresenter alternative?

Yes, for churches that want something simpler: multilingual Bible verses, lyrics, projector, stage, livestream graphics and remote control.

Is there a free ProPresenter alternative for churches?

LlamaPresenter Free runs your Bible, both outputs and the stage. Pro raises limits on languages, songs and templates, and includes the desktop app.

Can I bring my songs over?

Yes. Drop a ProPresenter 7 file or bundle on the console and we import the lyrics; your template sets the look.

Do I have to replace ProPresenter to try this?

No. Run one midweek service from a laptop; nothing gets uninstalled or paid for.

What happens if the internet drops mid-service?

Screens keep the current slide; you just can’t change it until you reconnect. Pro’s desktop app runs fully offline.

Does the projector machine need an account?

No. Each output is a private link; only the console operator signs in.

Where do my backgrounds and music live?

On the computer running the console. We store names and settings, not the files.

Is this made by ProPresenter?

No. LlamaPresenter is a separate product with no arrangement with ProPresenter’s owner.

Try it on a midweek service.

Nothing to install or cancel. ProPresenter is still there on Sunday if it doesn’t suit you.
