LightLoop is the FREE presentation and digital signage platform for ministry — greet people the moment they check in, display live rosters, and show upcoming events, all on your Apple TVs.
The instant someone checks in through PCO Check-In, a joyful full-screen celebration bursts onto every Apple TV in the room — their name, photo, and a custom sound effect. When it's done, your announcement slides or curriculum playback resumes right where it left off.
Display a real-time overview of checked-in people pulled directly from a PCO event. Perfect for room capacity displays, hallway security stations, or giving teachers a live headcount at a glance. The list refreshes automatically every few seconds — no manual refresh needed.
Display a real-time roster of checked-in people pulled directly from a PCO event. The list refreshes automatically every few seconds — no manual refresh needed.
Connect a PCO Check-Ins event and LightLoop automatically builds a birthday slide — pulling everyone whose birthday falls this week or this month. Avatars, names, birthdates, and ages are all pulled from PCO. The slide re-renders on a schedule and whenever your configuration changes, so it's always current without any manual work.
Pull your Planning Center events and service times onto any screen as a clean, always-current display. Update an event in PCO and it appears on your Apple TVs automatically — no dashboard trips required.
Browse your upcoming service plans from PCO Services and import songs directly into the LightLoop Song editor — no copy-pasting required. Search the full PCO song library, select an arrangement, pull its audio attachment, and build synced lyric slides in minutes. The service plan order becomes your lyric set list.
Play kids ministry video curriculum on your Apple TVs. Teachers pause mid-lesson with a button press — the video holds on that frame — then advance manually when they're ready to continue. Works with any video file, no special encoding needed.
Every Apple TV downloads content locally before playback begins. If the internet drops during a service, your screens keep playing without a hiccup. No buffering, no dropped frames, no awkward moments in front of the kids.
Trigger live countdown banners right from your playlist. Count down to service start, or set a timer for group discussion, activity time, or clean-up. Timers update in real time and auto-clear when they reach zero.
Attach background music to any playlist. Play worship songs or ambient audio between curriculum segments, with independent volume control and seamless looping — so the room never feels silent between slides.
Create a free LightLoop account with your Google login — no credit card, no plans to pick. Takes about 30 seconds.
In LightLoop Settings, click Connect Planning Center and authorize with your PCO account. LightLoop only requests read access to Check-In and Calendar data.
In any playlist, add a Welcome Party, Check-In Monitor, or Calendar item. Choose your PCO event or service type, drop it into your feed, and you're live.
Welcome Party, Check-In Monitor, Birthday Displays, PCO Calendar, and Songs from Services are all included in LightLoop at no cost. No plans, no tiers, no surprises.
Connect your Planning Center account in minutes and see Welcome Party fire on your Apple TVs this Sunday.
