STAGEit Host is the companion app for STAGEit Presenter and cannot be used on its own. STAGEit Presenter must be running on one or more Apple Vision Pro devices for Host to connect and control a presentation. Host turns your iPhone or iPad into the control centre for immersive presentations delivered with STAGEit Presenter. From brand activations and product launches to architecture, design reviews, training, education, exhibitions and live events, Host gives the presenter control of what their audience experiences inside Apple Vision Pro. Rather than asking viewers to navigate the experience themselves, the presenter stays in control. Move your audience between scenes, advance through your presentation and coordinate multiple Apple Vision Pro devices from a familiar iPhone or iPad interface. Host connects to STAGEit Presenter over your local network, allowing immersive presentations to be delivered as managed experiences. Your audience can focus entirely on the content while you control the journey. Built for presenting β€’ Control STAGEit Presenter remotely from iPhone or iPad β€’ Move your audience between presentation scenes β€’ Coordinate multiple Apple Vision Pro devices β€’ Keep multiple viewers together throughout a presentation β€’ Control the experience without interrupting your audience β€’ Manage presentations containing STAGEit Scenes and Apple Immersive Video β€’ Designed for presentations, demonstrations, brand activations and live events STAGEit Host is part of the STAGEit ecosystem alongside STAGEit Creator and STAGEit Presenter.

Whether you’re revealing a product, guiding clients through a future environment, running an immersive brand activation or presenting to a room full of people wearing Apple Vision Pro, Host puts the experience in your hands.
