There are three ways to present your VRIFY 3D Presentation at a live event:
Option 1: Hardwire connection (preferred):
Connect with an HDMI cable for the most reliable experience.
Option 2: Cast to a screen using Apple TV:
Connect to an external screen wirelessly for another reliable experience.
Option 3: Wireless connection with an Online Meeting (not recommended):
Share your screen over Wi-Fi. This method requires a strong internet connection and is not recommended unless as a last resort.
Note: These steps provide general guidance, as every event is different. Please have your VRIFY contact confirm technical setup with the conference team in advance to ensure that your presentation runs smoothly.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Option 1: Hardwire Connection (preferred)
Option 1: Hardwire Connection (preferred)
Present from an iPad
Present from an iPad
Note: iPad over laptop is the preferred option when presenting with a hardwired connection. On the VRIFY app, you can download your 3D Presentation in advance to ensures smooth Slide transitions even in the event of Wi-Fi connectivity issues.
To present with an iPad you'll need:
HDMI adapter/dongle (compatible with your iPad): Needed to plug into a screen on stage. Newer iPads and iPad pros will require a USB-C adapter.
We recommend these USB-C to HDMI adapters:
HDMI cord: This is usually provided by the AV team, but it’s a good idea to bring your own as a backup. If possible, pack cords in multiple lengths to suit different setups.
iPad (iOS) software is updated to the latest version: Check that your operating system is up-to-date by opening your iPad's Settings, then General, then Software Update. Ensure this update is done the night before your presentation, as it can take a while to complete.
VRIFY app (latest version): If a newer version is available, you’ll see an ‘Update’ icon beside the app in the App Store.
Internet connectivity: This is not required during your presentation, but is required to download your deck beforehand. We recommend doing this the night before with a strong Wi-Fi connection. We also recommend installing a data sim card in your iPad in order to always have internet access, regardless of Wi-Fi availability.
Log into the VRIFY app.
Tap on the download icon (cloud with an arrow) next to the 3D Presentation.
The download is complete when the icon changes to a rectangle with a checkmark.
Once you’re ready to start presenting:
At the podium, plug in the HDMI cable and adapter to your iPad.
Tap the 3D Presentation to open.
The presentation will appear on the screen behind you. If it doesn't appear immediately, wait a few seconds.
Share your 3D Presentation. Note that, while you will see the slide panel on the left, annotation tool, and navigation arrows, the audience won't see any of the host controls.
Once your presentation is complete, simply unplug your iPad and adapter from the HDMI cord.
Present from your laptop
Present from your laptop
To present with a laptop you'll need:
HDMI adaptor (compatible with your laptop and event set up) - Confirm with event organizers which adapter is required in order to plug in at the podium. Some possible adapters may include: USB-C to HDMI, Mini HDMI to HDMI, VGA to HDMI.
Chrome Browser (latest version) - Recommended for best performance with VRIFY.
Internet Connectivity
Just before your presentation:
Log into your account on VRIFY.com and open the 3D Presentation.
Click through your 3D model and 360 photo slides (This will pre-load the images and help avoid any loading or rendering lags during your presentation)
Once you’re ready to start presenting:
Close the navigation bar on the left side of your 3D Presentation if you want it hidden during your presentation and use the arrows to transition between slides.
Use Ctrl + F11 on Windows 11 to put the presentation in full-screen mode from Chrome and ^⌘f in macOS
You can also access full screen by selecting the menu (three-dot) icon in the upper-right corner of Chrome.
In the Zoom section, select the square icon on the right.
To start presenting: plug in the HDMI adapter to your laptop. The screen should be set to mirror (on Mac) or duplicate (on Windows). The device should remember the last setting used.

Option 2: Cast to a Screen Using Apple TV
Option 2: Cast to a Screen Using Apple TV
With an Apple TV and AirPlay (Screen Mirroring), you can present your 3D Presentation on a TV or projector. This setup lets you move freely while using your iPad to control slides and annotate.
You don’t need an internet connection to cast your iPad to Apple TV with AirPlay. Apple devices connect directly to each other, but Wi-Fi must be enabled so the devices can detect and pair on the same local network.
Note: Apple TV Screen Mirroring technology is only available on an Apple TV 4K or higher.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow these quick steps on your Apple TV and iPad to set up AirPlay (Screen Mirroring) and project your 3D Presentation to a TV or projector.
