How it works

From your schedule to every phone in the room.

Set it up once, before the day. On the day, post a change once: every guest’s phone and the screen in the foyer show it in seconds.

  • Free to publish
  • No guest app or account

  1. 01 Before the day

    Type in your schedule

    Type a title and press Enter. Each new session starts where the previous one ends, in the same room and for the same length, so most entries need only a title.

    • Rooms as you go, and a session held in two
    • A clash shown before you add it, with a one-tap fix
    • Nothing is public until you publish
    Your schedule, as your guests will read it.

  2. 02 Publishing

    Put the QR on the door

    Publishing gives your Board a six-character code and a QR. Download the poster for the door, and open the foyer display on any screen with a browser.

    • A poster, and a QR file for your printers
    • A foyer display, read from across the room
    The foyer display, with its QR always on screen.

  3. 03 On the day

    Post once. Every open Board and the foyer screen show it.

    When something changes, post it from your phone. Every open Board and the foyer screen show it within about 10 seconds, with the old time crossed out.

    • A notice, a moved session, or an urgent update
    • Urgent leads every Board until you resolve it
    • Nobody has to refresh, and there’s no app
    Coffee moved to 11:45: every phone shows it, with 11:30 crossed out.

  4. 04 When the signal drops

    Clear when it may be out of date

    Phones lose signal at events. Every Board says when it last changed, and says so when a check runs late. If the phone has no connection, it says “Offline · showing 11:04”; if the phone is online but CueDuck didn’t answer, “Can’t reach CueDuck · showing 11:04”. Either way it keeps the last version it had.

    • The time of the last change, always on screen
    • Countdowns stop when they can’t be confirmed
    • Catches up by itself when the signal comes back
    The foot of every Board: current, then out of date and saying so.

  5. 05 Afterwards

    It winds down by itself

    When the event finishes, the Board shows its final version and remains available for seven days. After that, it closes.

    • The schedule and every change, kept readable
    • At the same address, for seven days
    • Your event stays in your account
    A finished Board, as a record.

Three Board shapes.

One thing at a time, several rooms at once, or one main moment. It follows the rooms you add. Each Board answers the question your guests are asking.

  1. 01

    Conference

    One thing at a time: what’s on now, and what’s next.CueDuck for conferences

  2. 02

    Festival

    Several things at once: every room, and one that’s closed.CueDuck for festivals

  3. 03

    Wedding

    The day in order: the ceremony, then everything after it.CueDuck for weddings

Private by design

Guests never make an account, and the Board keeps no profile of them. Read the privacy page

  • No guest accountsGuests scan the QR and read. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
  • Gone after seven daysA Board remains available for seven days after the event, then closes. Nothing about your guests is kept.
