Presentation remote

Your phone is the presentation remote.

No clicker to buy, pack or forget. Scan one QR code and your phone becomes the remote for your slides. Back and next, your notes and the next slide are in your hand. So are the polls, quizzes and word clouds in between.

Control a live quiz from your phone.

In a presentation there is no start button to look for. Move to a quiz question and its timer starts. Close it early when everyone has answered, then move to a leaderboard slide to show who is ahead. A live quiz on its own has a remote too. The phone shows the question, how many have answered and the time left, with one big button for the next step.

  • The timer starts when you get thereMove to a quiz question and the clock runs. No extra tap.
  • Who has answeredFor example "8 of 12 answered", next to the time left.
  • Start, reveal, leaderboardOn a live quiz, one button runs whatever comes next, up to the podium.

03 · Poll

Run polls from your phone.

On a poll slide, the phone shows how many people have voted. Close voting when the room has spoken. Then show the results on the big screen, or keep them hidden until you are ready. A live poll on its own works the same way, with a last call before voting closes and a button to run it again for the next group.

  • Close votingOn a live poll, a last call counts down first. You can still keep voting open.
  • Show or hide resultsOn a poll slide, you choose when the room sees the chart.
  • Run it againOne tap opens a new session of the same poll.

04 · Word cloud

Run a word cloud from your phone.

Pause answers, show or hide the cloud, and end it when you are done. The phone also lists the words with a search box. If someone sends a word you do not want on screen, find it and hide it from every screen. Show it again with one tap if you change your mind.

  • Pause answersStop new words while you talk about the cloud.
  • Find and hide a wordA hidden word leaves every screen.
  • Show or hide resultsKeep the cloud hidden until the answers are in.

05 · Q&A

Moderate Q&A from your phone.

A Q&A works a little differently. It has no Remote button. Its Moderate view opens on your phone from a QR code instead, on every plan. From there you approve questions, put one on the big screen, mark it answered or remove it. Review first, where nothing shows until you approve it, is on Creator, Pro and Enterprise. In a presentation, the question list opens on the presenter screen.

  • Open it by QR codeScan the code in Moderate view and sign in.
  • Approve or rejectWith Review first, each question waits for you.
  • Put a question on screenShow one question on the big screen, then take it off.

FAQ

Presentation remote questions

Can I use my phone as a presentation clicker?
Yes. In RiLiFi, press Remote on the presenter screen and scan the QR code with your phone. Your phone then moves the slides back and next, and shows your notes and the next slide.
Do I need an app for the RiLiFi phone remote?
No. The remote is a web page. Scan the QR code, sign in with your RiLiFi account in the phone browser, and keep the presenter screen open on the computer.
Which RiLiFi plans include the phone remote?
Creator, Pro and Enterprise. Creator is $7 a month. On the free plan, the Remote button shows a lock and you present from your laptop with the arrow keys.
Does the RiLiFi remote control PowerPoint or Google Slides?
No. It runs presentations in RiLiFi. To use a PowerPoint or Google Slides deck, download it as a PDF and bring it in. Each page becomes a picture slide, and you can add polls and quizzes between them.
Can I start a quiz from my phone?
Yes. In a presentation, move to a quiz question and its timer starts. For a live quiz on its own, the phone shows one button for the next step: start, the next question, reveal the answer or the leaderboard.
Can I moderate a Q&A from my phone?
Yes, on every plan. Open the Q&A’s Moderate view on your phone with its QR code. You can approve questions, put one on the big screen and mark it answered. In a presentation, the question list opens on the presenter screen instead.
What happens if my phone loses its connection?
The phone shows Reconnecting… and tries again on its own. The presenter screen keeps running, and the arrow keys on the computer still move the slides.
Does the audience see my notes?
Not from the phone. Your notes and the next-slide preview show on your phone. On the computer, they show only if you open the Notes panel.

Present from your phone

Leave the clicker at home.

The phone remote is on Creator, Pro and Enterprise, from $7 a month. Building and presenting a deck is free for 100 people per session.
