What it is

FreeShow is free, open-source presentation software for lyrics, slides, scripture, and media, with a focus on worship presentations. Its editor changes text font, size, and color, adds outlines and shadows, and allows edits during a presentation. Slides can autoplay on timers; countdowns and MIDI commands can control slide changes or external actions. FreeShow supports simultaneous output views, web output for mobile devices, NDI output, and mobile remote control. Images and videos can serve as slide backgrounds, and built-in YouTube and Vimeo players are listed. Users can look up scripture passages and create song slides from song-title searches; the features page describes access to over 200 Bibles through API.Bible. The software imports from PowerPoint, ProPresenter, EasyWorship, and OpenSong and exports content in multiple formats. Cloud sync supports collaborative work across computers, covering songs and settings; media uses a repository linked to the local file system. FreeShow runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. The project began in late 2021, and its first release was in February 2022.
