If you see this, click ‘Old Devices’
Tap the button. A drop down menu should appear.

If no menu opens, click on the Old Devices link near the bottom of the page and go to step 6, or try a different web browser.

To keep their screen from turning off, users can stroke the bottom of their screen gently throughout the piece.
Performers should not click the Conductor link. You are on the honor system.
Troubleshooting
When the piece is running, not everyone will see updates at the same time. If you do not see updates at all or if updates stop working after some period of time:
Make sure you are on the right wifi network. If your device allows you to say which devices you prefer, put this one at the top of the list.
If your device keeps switching to another network (such as eduroam) and you can’t get it to stop otherwise, tell it to forget the other network. In this case, you will need to forget the network before every performance or rehearsal of the piece. When you rejoin the ‘forgotten’ network later, you will need to have the password, etc as if you are a new user.
Your device may also switch to mobile data, so be sure this is disabled.
Check if you have javascript disabled. If so, enable it and reload the page.
If you still do not see updates, go back a page and select Old Devices. Be sure to update your bookmark.
