Live Streaming for Churches
Live streaming software for churches
Take your worship services to the community with immersive multicamera live streaming productions. Our powerful software makes it simple to create and share dynamic, high-quality live (and recorded) video content.
Elevate your live streams – not your budget
With Switcher, you can capture your worship service from up to 9 angles using just iPhones and iPads. Edit your stream in real time: add text, switch angles, or roll in videos like openers or sermon teasers. You can even include scripture or lyric slides in a picture-in-picture layout.
Best of all, Switcher is easy enough to be run by your A/V or worship team or a volunteer. And since it works entirely with iOS devices, that means there’s no need to hire outside videographers or purchase expensive equipment. (Can we get a hallelujah?)
Reach your members where they are
Video production is just one part of the puzzle: You also need to make sure your live streamed church service can actually be seen by your members (or potential members). Luckily, our seamless platform integrations let you connect instantly to Facebook, YouTube, and almost anywhere else. You can even use the embeddable Switcher Player to stream directly to your own website. Plus, our built-in Multistreaming feature means you can reach your audiences on any of these destinations — at the same time, with the same stream.
Create a content channel with Switcher video player
Our video player lets you stream directly to your website and offers much more. This white-label HTML5 video player can be embedded on almost any webpage, allowing you to add interactive links, service information, and even integrate online giving platforms for seamless tithing. You can create unlimited playlists, upload prerecorded videos, build catalogs, and even put premium content behind a paywall. Plus, if you don’t have a website, you can stream to a private link—bypassing ads and unwanted content recommendations from public platforms.
With Switcher, your production grows with you
It’s easy to get started with Switcher: Just one iPhone or iPad is all you need to start streaming live today. But, Switcher is the most versatile live streaming production software around. Invite remote guests, add interactive elements, sell live, even connect mirrorless or DSLR cameras to your Switcher production.

We use Switcher every Sunday to stream our kids' church, and we just love all the quality we can provide to the kids at home. We think it is wonderful to share the gospel with them, considering how COVID has changed our ways to share.
