features and a whole lot more at a price that can't be beat.


ABOUT OPENLP

Free Worship Presentation Software for your Church.



OpenLP is a feature rich open-source church presentation platform that doesn't
tie you down to subscription renewals, device platforms, or even the
presentation computer! With OpenLP, you're free to upgrade as soon as the next
release comes out; you're free to roam the sanctuary with one of our remote
apps, and you're free to install as many copies of the application as you want
on Windows, Linux, Mac or FreeBSD. OpenLP continuously strives to deliver with
excellence the technical elements of your church's worship service.

 * Cross platform between Linux, Windows, OS X and FreeBSD
 * Display songs, Bible verses, presentations, images and more
 * Control OpenLP remotely via your mobile web browser
 * Quickly and easily import songs from other popular presentation packages
 * Easy enough to use to get up and running in less than 10 minutes




OPEN SOURCE

OpenLP is an open-source presentation platform created for use in churches large
and small. Say good-bye to the hassle of subscription costs and device
platforms; this software offers a wide variety of features that will greatly
benefit your worship service.

But what does open-source mean? It means that the code that the developers write
is available to you. But more than that, it means that OpenLP is, and always
will be, free. Free to download, free to use, and free to give to all your
friends. Being open-source also means that the developers are continuously
working to improve this application, and welcome any comments or questions users
may have.


REMOTE CONTROL

Control your presentations from anywhere using OpenLP's first-of-its-kind remote
system. With a built-in web app, you can access your service from any
network-enabled device that has a browser and a touch screen. Change slides, or
even change what is currently presenting from your phone. Search for songs,
Bible verses, images and more without needing to touch the computer.

For those with Android or iOS devices there is an Android and an iOS app
available on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, to download for
free. They have all the same features as the web app, packed into a native
application.

HELP



The best place to learn how to use OpenLP is the Manual, which has both
Frequently Asked Questions and a Troubleshooting Guide.

If you are unable to find the answer in the manual, browse the Forums where a
number of folks in our community can help to answer your questions.

OpenLP is not developed by a company, but by a group of volunteers who dedicate
part of their spare time to developing this application. These same developers
try to also find time to help users with their problems. Every moment a
developer spends on answering a question is a moment not spent working on
OpenLP. Please use their time sparingly.
