Run the gig in Show Mode

Show Mode is the on-stage view. It takes the whole screen — no platform bar, sidebar or tabs — locks editing, sets the setlist in big type and asks the browser to keep the screen awake, so a tablet on the keyboard rig does not go dark mid-set.

Entering Show Mode

1. Build and check your setlist first — nothing can be edited once Show Mode is on.
2. Tap the Show Mode button in the show header.
3. You may be asked whether to switch to dark mode for the show — easier on the eyes in a dark venue. You can say no.

Any audio that was playing stops on entry.

Driving the set

• Tap a song to arm it. The armed song is marked as now playing (title, position of total).
• Next and Back in the bottom bar move through the list. Played songs dim; the next one is marked.
• The live clock shows Ahead or Behind against the planned times, planned breaks included, measured from the moment the first song was armed. When the last song is done it shows Set finished with the actual total time.
• Your position survives a reload mid-show.
• To start over, use Reset live progress — tap it twice to confirm.

Keyboard and foot pedal

A Bluetooth page-turner pedal types keys like a keyboard, so it works without any setup:

The keys do nothing while a dialog is open. If your pedal has modes, pick the one that sends Page Down / Page Up or the arrow keys.

Changes from other devices

While Show Mode runs, a change synced from another device never replaces or switches the set you are playing.

Leaving Show Mode

Tap the button again. A dialog asks Really exit Show Mode? so an accidental tap cannot pull the app out of the locked view; confirm with Exit.

Keeping the screen on

Show Mode requests a screen wake lock. If the browser cannot grant one you see Wake Lock unavailable — in that case turn off display sleep in the device settings for the night.

Next

• Export the PDF — for the taped-to-the-floor version.
• Prepare the royalties report — after the show.
