Cloud is a high priority after we get EW8 released.

I don't know about the second question. I have not heard anything about it, but you can post it in the feature request in this forum

Hi,
I've been using EasyWorship in my old church, and will probably try to convince my new church to use Easy Worship. It is pretty much the norm in Denmark, so Songbooks for presenting are delivered in this format.

However, a couple of questions to the future roadmap. I've loaded the new beta, but really can't seem to find much new functionality. 

Our pain points are primarily:

  1. Are there any plans in the near future for a cloud service - or supporting cloud storage in some form? Trying to make people collaborate using email always fails.
  2. Are there any plans for database api access? We really need a way to mass handle songs, as many conversion tools between formats are very lackluster.

Thanks Dan,

looking forward to beta testing version 8. The quality of the program graphics seem improved but I'm mainly going to be testing out Presentations and Themes as this is mostly where I spend most of my time creating and 7 needs so many improvements. I'm also interested in enhancements in the Alternate Output area and an easier way of adding audio.

But thanks for this release on the forum.

Only Silicon Mac is supported for the BETA. Intel Mac install should be supported on full release.

Hi - it says "Not supported on this Mac" - Mac Mini 6-Core Intel Core i7 MacOS Sequoia 15.3.2. Is it by any chance Apple Silicon only?

Hello! If you would like to be a BETA tester, we have a build available to you, 8.0.9

If you notice any new bugs, please post them in this thread only. Here is the information we need about the bug.

    • Make sure you can reproduce the bug. We realize that there could be things that only happen once, but usually, those are connected to something else. You are welcome to post about it, but please let us know if it only happened once and you couldn't reproduce it. If you can consistently make something happen that shouldn't happen, or if something doesn't happen that should, please report it as a bug.

    • If you get a crash report, click on Show Report, then click anywhere in the report and press Ctrl+A, then Ctrl+C, and then paste it into a Notepad (txt) file and save it to attach to your post.

    • When you post about a bug, please describe in detail how you are reproducing the bug. If you can take a screen recording or a screenshot, or if you have a crash report, please attach those to your post.

We value your input and willingness to try this new version of EasyWorship. Still, we want this thread to be productive and not destructive, so please limit comments to the productivity of making this version ready to release to the public.
As always, this is an early BETA version that is not ready for live services. We do not take any responsibility if it is used in a live service.

Windows EasyWorship 8 BETA

Mac EasyWorship 8 BETA

This update is a blessing! Having cross-platform compatibility is going to help our media volunteers a lot. Just joined the beta group – can't wait to test and support.

We would like to have all feedback and bugs posted in one place, but I understand that some of you don't use FB. (If I didn't have to, I wouldn't)

When we release the next build, I will post a link to it here in the forums under announcements.

I have not head but Dan is out and will be back next week. 

Dan, When will non-Facebook user's be able to try this beta? Previous betas were done through the forum and we don't all use social media.


How to install Easy Worship on PC?


Hi! One license will cover both PC and MAC for your church when it comes available. 

(Rick Parsons here - I had to change my account)


At our church with the projector we run Windows but at home I, and some other volunteers, generally use Mac and have to muddle round to find a Windows PC to prep schedules. Will our subscription allow us access to both versions for this purpose please?

EasyWorship 8 Beta offers fantastic features for Mac and PC users. Whether for presentations or live worship.

They are cross platform compatible. You will be able to create, save, and open schedules from one to the other.
