Expo Mode — one QR entrance gives every event visitor their own private live translation session
Expo Mode lets you publish an audience entrance URL for an event, booth, or seminar. Each visitor scans the QR code or opens the link and gets their own private live translation session — no install and no account. You create entrances, control their settings, and monitor visitor sessions from one dashboard.

​
Expo Mode vs. Listener Sharing

  • Listener sharing (in Live Audio Translation Subtitles and Share Live Captions to Listeners) broadcasts one speaker to many listeners who read along.
  • Expo Mode gives each visitor their own session with the microphone always enabled, so every visitor speaks and receives translation independently — ideal for expo booths, reception desks, help counters, and one‑to‑one conversations across a multilingual crowd.

​
Open Expo Mode

In the VoicePing web app, open Expo Mode from the left navigation. Before you create anything, the page shows No Expo links yet and your usage against plan limits — Expo URLs (for example, 0 / 3) and Expo sessions — plus Export to CSV and New Expo URL. Click New Expo URL to create your first entrance.

​
Create an Entrance URL

  1. Click New Expo URL. A new entrance (for example, Expo entrance 1) appears in the list with an Enabled status and live active / joined counts.
  2. Enter an Expo URL name and click Save. Each entrance gets a unique code, and the panel records the created date and creator.
  3. Share the Entrance URL with visitors:
    • Copy the link to paste into a page, email, or chat.
    • Download QR to print it on a booth sign, badge, or slide.

The entrance URL and its QR code are fixed for each entrance, so printed signage keeps working across sessions. Create separate entrances (for example, one per booth or day) to keep visitor analytics separated.

​
How Visitors Join

  1. The visitor scans the QR code or opens the entrance URL on their phone or computer — no install, no account.
  2. They enter a name, choose the language they want to see, and tap Join. If a password is set, they enter it first.

  1. They land in a private translation session. Because the visitor microphone is always enabled, they can speak and read or hear the translation, switch the source and target languages, and turn on Bilingual Mode.

Best Practices For Events

  • Create one entrance per booth, room, or day so analytics stay separated.
  • Print the QR large enough to scan from a short distance and place it at eye level.
  • Turn on Password for private or paid sessions; leave it off for open, walk-up booths.
  • Enable TTS when visitors will listen through earphones rather than read.
  • Watch the Active counter and your Expo sessions limit during peak times so walk-ups aren’t turned away.
