Nothing to install
It is a single program file. It doesn't write to Program Files, doesn't need an administrator, and doesn't ask permission from anything. Copy it, run it, delete it — the machine is exactly as you found it.
Free, unrestricted, forever
The portable player.
A prepared show on a USB stick, playing on any Windows or Mac machine. No installer, no admin rights, no license, no expiry. Plug it in, double-click, and the screens come to life.
Nothing to license
The player contains no licensing code at all. There is no trial, no key and no check — it simply plays. That's a structural promise, not a policy that could change.
Runs from the stick
Photos, show settings and the player travel together on one USB drive. Nothing is copied onto the host machine, and nothing is left behind when it's unplugged.
Made for handing over
It's what a venue gives a family at the end of the day, and what you send someone when the display needs to run on a machine you don't control.
Download
One file. Save it to a USB stick alongside the show folder, or anywhere on the machine that will do the playing.

The Windows player is code-signed, so Windows will show Interapp Development, Inc. as the publisher. A brand new release can still draw a SmartScreen prompt until enough people have downloaded it — choose More info then Run anyway, or ask us if you'd rather check first. The Mac player is notarized by Apple, so Gatekeeper opens it with no extra step.
Using it
- Copy the player next to the show folder — on the USB stick, or wherever the show lives.
- Double-click it. The show fills every connected screen and starts playing.
- Press Escape twice, quickly, to stop. A single tap does nothing on purpose — a guest brushing the keyboard shouldn't be able to drop the display to a desktop.
Want to build the shows, not just play them? That's the licensed application: choose folders, choose display styles, drive the room's screens, run day after day. See what it does, download the 7-day trial, or buy a license for $399.
