Host Live — Announcements
Announcements are short messages the organizer can display on the Wall during an event.
View announcements
From the event dashboard, tap Manage Announce. The list shows each announcement's title, a preview of its text, and its display duration (for example, 30s). Tap an existing announcement to work with it, or tap + New announcement.
Create a basic announcement on your phone
Host Live's announcement editor is deliberately simpler than the full Hub Designer. You can enter:
- A Headline.
- A second line of text.
These lines appear on the Wall using the event's theme background. Host Live does not provide the full artwork and layout designer.
For artwork, layered layouts, or more complex announcements, prepare the announcement in the full PixCrowd Hub Designer before the event.
Display an announcement
From Wall Remote, choose an existing announcement. It appears on all active Wall Displays within seconds and remains on screen for its configured duration, then normal Wall presentation resumes.
Announcements cannot be shown on the Wall while an event is in Preview mode.
