I purchased the ad-free version for Android for my cell phone and my tablet. I need info on how to take a full catalog of songs I imported into Tempo and create set lists by choosing which songs from that full catalog to put into the set lists for upcoming gigs. If this is possible, I haven't found out how to do it or where to go for some actual guidance on using the app. Right now I'm creating 3 set lists from the start, even though I have a master set list of all the songs in our repertoire.

I've recently switched to Android from iOS and was happy to see this app here as well. But unfortunately it's missing some fairly critical features around playlists. For starters, why can't I search for songs? It seems like a massive miss to exclude this feature. Also, why can't I add songs to a playlist from other playlists? More than willing to drop 5 stars for those features.

Updates over the past few years have lost "full-screen flash," which I need for silent metronome during live performance. Used to LOVE this app.. can't use it anymore. I'm a professional pianist, make my living accompanying. I used this app happily for years until it's best creatures started disappearing. The lost "full-screen flash" was even in dark mode.. used to be wonderful. Recent updates have also lost the capability of quickly toggling between sound vs mute by tapping the beat links.
