Play a setlist on stage, song by song

Once the setlist is open, tap the first song and it opens with its chords and lyrics. From there the set is your running order: swipe left for the next song and right for the one before, so you never lose your place. With a mouse you can drag the page sideways the same way, and while the song's controls are showing, the Previous song and Next song arrows do it with a tap. If the band jumps ahead or calls an old favourite from further down, open the menu and tap that song instead. On a screen 1024 pixels wide or more, such as a computer or most tablets held sideways, the menu stays open next to the song, so the whole set is in view while you play.

In the gap between songs, it helps to know what's coming, and whether you need to retune or move the capo. On a phone or tablet, where the menu isn't open beside the song, a small label in a setlist names the next song and its key, and tapping it takes you there. You choose when it shows under Settings, Text and chords, Next song hint: Auto shows it when a song starts and again when you're close to the end, Always keeps it in the corner whenever the top of the page has scrolled away, and Off hides it.

With both hands on your instrument, a Bluetooth page turner or foot pedal is the easiest way through the set. It works without any setup: the right arrow goes to the next song in the setlist and the left arrow to the one before, and a keyboard does the same with its arrow keys. If you'd like your pedal to scroll as well, or to do something else on a double press, see Page turner pedal to set your own keys.

For long songs you can also start autoscroll, which rolls the lyrics up at the song's own pace; it never moves on to the next song by itself, so that step is still yours. And if you're playing a gig, check off each song as you play it so you always see what's left.
