Adding screens, and fixing connections
Screens link directly to Studio over your network — nothing goes through a server.
Step by step
Press Add a device
In the Devices tab. Choose what the screen will show first.
Scan the big code
With the phone or tablet’s camera. It opens in the browser.
Finish the link
If the device shows a code of its own, hold it up to the laptop’s camera so Studio can scan it back.
Or open it here
For a screen on this same computer (a second monitor or projector), choose Open it here instead.
Tips
- Venue, hotel and office Wi-Fi often blocks devices talking to each other. A phone hotspot fixes it.
- If a screen drops, find it in Devices and use its button there to link it again.
- Pasting a code by hand? Capitals don’t matter, and a code damaged by a chat app is caught straight away — just copy it again.
Questions
How many devices can join?
Up to 10 per show on the Event Pass. The Production plan lets you run Studio on more than one computer.
