Modes: what guests' phones and screens do in your show - Luce

A mode is one part of your show. Some play on guests’ phones (reels, colours, the camera), some run the venue’s screens, and some give guests information on the event page. You pick the modes when you create an event and can change them any time with Edit modes in the console.

Modes by phase

Guests see a mode only in its own phase. Modes around the event are not tied to a phase.

Add or remove modes

In the console, choose Edit modes, tick what the event needs and untick what it does not, then save.

Removing a mode deletes its pictures and videos with it. This cannot be undone. A mode whose phase has passed can no longer change, and a mode guests are watching right now cannot be removed until you put another one on air.

Put a mode on air

While the event is live, one of the During modes is on air at a time. Select it in the console and choose Set on air; every phone in the show switches to it. You can set up any other mode while one is on air: until a mode is on air, only you see it.
