FlipStage: Present Two-Sided

FlipStage splits one screen into two facing halves. The half pointing at the other person shows the current slide. The half pointing at you shows your speaker notes, a timer, and the controls.

What it does

- Splits the screen into an audience half and a presenter half, the audience half turned 180 degrees so it reads upright from the other side

- Keeps your speaker notes on your half only, in a pane you can scroll

- Runs an elapsed timer you can pause, with optional targets of 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes. The timer turns red once you pass the target you set

- Moves through the deck with Prev and Next on your half

- Starts from a four-slide sample deck, or import photos from your library as slides

- Reorder slides, remove them, and type speaker notes on any slide before you start

What to know before you buy

- The two-sided view opens when the window is taller than it is wide. On a phone that means holding it upright.

- Decks are not saved yet. Photos you import, notes you type and any reordering last until you close the app. If you need a deck to survive a restart, wait for that update.

- The audience half shows the slide and its position in the deck, nothing else from your notes.

- No account and no network. Nothing you type or import leaves the device.

FlipStage does not film, record, or scroll text automatically. It puts a slide on one side and your notes on the other.
