Release 1.3

Major Features

September 2026

iOS
Android

Version 1.3.0 connects Deepen to ProPresenter through a new Connector app, with nested playlist support, push-based slide sync, automatic reset at the start of each service, and re-import when the deck changes.

Key updates in 1.3.0

  • Slide Sync now intgrates with ProPresenter, so the app only unlocks a slide after it is presented in ProPresenter.
  • Introduced ProPresenter Connector, a dedicated Connect app keeps a stable, real-time link between ProPresenter and Deepen for the whole service.
  • Nested playlist support for selecting your presentation in ProPresenter
  • Slide sync and display adjustments for smoother visual flow and tighter real-time alignment between the house screens and the app.
  • Automatic slide reset at the start of each presentation (when running multiple session times), so follow-along begins clean.
  • Next-gen architecture slide sync now uses background push technology instead of polling, so newly revealed slides reach phones immediately.
  • Slide re-import refreshes slides from ProPresenter when a deck changes, without rebuilding the presentation in Studio.

Deepen Studio Updates
When a presentation is synced with ProPresenter, ProPresenter is the source of truth for slide timing. The app follows the desk: a slide appears only after it is revealed in ProPresenter.

  • New presentations can sync slides with ProPresenter. Choose the matching playlist and presentation when you create.
  • Slides import and publish in one step.
  • Re-import refreshes an existing presentation when the deck or order changes. No need to rebuild the presentation.
