Telestrator Draw turns your iPad into a wireless drawing surface for your live service or event. Pair the app to your Telestrator session, and whatever you draw on the iPad appears instantly on your main screens — over your slides, lyrics, scripture, photos, and videos. Built for churches and live productions where a pastor or presenter wants to circle a word, underline a verse, or sketch an idea on the graphics the room is already watching, no cables, no separate tablet display, no production booth. HOW IT WORKS • Open the app and scan the pairing QR code (or type the 6-character code) shown on your Telestrator control screen. • Draw with Apple Pencil or your finger. Pen and highlighter, multiple colors and sizes, undo, and one-tap clear. • Your strokes stream live to the audience output in real time. • Freeze or play background video, follow slide changes automatically, and clear with a smooth fade between thoughts. REQUIRES A TELESTRATOR ACCOUNT This app is the drawing companion to Telestrator Live. You'll need an active account at app.telestrator.live (free trial available) and a running control session to pair with. Subscriptions are managed on the web — there is no in-app purchase. Apple Pencil recommended. Works on iPad and iPhone.
