AllStage Remote is the companion remote for AllStage, the live-performance app for Mac, Windows and Linux. It puts the things you need mid-song on your phone, your tablet or your watch, so you are not walking back to the desk between numbers.

It needs AllStage running on a machine on the same network. On its own it does nothing - this is a remote, not a standalone player.

WHAT YOU GET ON THE PHONE

Setlist. The whole set, in order, with what is playing now and what is next. Tap a song to jump to it; it asks first, so a stray thumb does not change the show.

Lyrics. The current line large enough to read from the back of the stage, with the next line underneath. Between lines it breathes, then counts you in.

Chords, key and meter. Shown beside the lyric when the song carries them, and only when there is something to show.

Loop sections. Tap to arm, +1 to add a pass while it is running, and the section queued to come next is marked so you know what the band is heading into.

Performance notes. The note for this song, at the top, readable at a distance, gone when you dismiss it.

Transport and timing. Play, stop and skip, elapsed and remaining for the song and the set, and a countdown through a scheduled break.

ON YOUR WRIST

The Wear OS app runs on its own - install it on the watch whether or not the phone app is there. Transport, what is playing, the host list and pairing, sized for a watch face rather than shrunk from a phone.

CONNECTING

Pair once with the six-digit code AllStage shows you, over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Bluetooth matters on stage, where the venue's network is somebody else's problem. A device can be paired for control, or view-only if you want it to watch and not touch.

How many devices you can pair depends on your AllStage licence: one on Free, five on Standard, unlimited on Pro, counting control and view-only devices together.

NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS, NOTHING COLLECTED

There is nothing to sign into and nothing to buy inside the app. It talks to your own machine on your own network, and sends nothing anywhere else.
