The whole setlist full-screen with one tap: lyrics, chords, order and tempo right in front of you. Follow a bandmate and your screen flows with theirs. Hands free, everyone on the same page.
Stage Mode is BandUp's stage companion: it turns a setlist into a dark, full-screen performance view with one tap. No sidebar, no notifications — just the next song, its lyrics and chords in large type you can read at a glance.
Its real power is band sync: you turn on follow mode and follow any member you like on stage, and as they move through the song, section and order, your screen live-mirrors the same spot — the whole band stays on the same page without touching a phone. With auto-scroll, a visual metronome, and personal and live transpose, everyone reads it for their own instrument and their own eyes; the screen stays awake, and even if the internet drops the setlist is ready on the device.
Chords sit right above the word, aligned with section labels; you never miss the jump to the chorus.
Follow any band member you like; when they change song, section or order, your screen goes with them instantly.
Auto-scroll computed from song length and a visual metronome anyone can turn on for songs with a BPM — hands free.
Shift the chords a half step: live transpose reflects to everyone (temporary, not saved), personal transpose stays only on your screen.
Text size, high contrast, dark/light theme; each member sets up their own view.
The screen won't sleep on stage; the setlist is ready on the device, so no hunting for signal.
While on stage, drag to reorder, tap-add from the repertoire, swipe to remove — changes autosave and reflect to everyone.
Chords sit right above the word they belong to, aligned with section labels (Verse, Chorus, Bridge). Large, high-contrast type reads at a glance, so you never miss the jump to the chorus or bridge.
You turn on follow mode and follow any member on stage — there's no fixed 'leader'. As the member you pick moves through the song, section or order, your screen live-mirrors the same spot; the whole band stays on the same page without touching a phone.
Shifting the chords a half step is one tap. Live transpose reflects to the whole band but is temporary — it isn't saved to the song and reverts to the original key when the session ends. Personal transpose stays only on your screen, so a horn player or someone in a different tuning reads in their own key without changing the song's data.
From Stage Mode's settings drawer you set up the look and content entirely your way: dark/light theme, four text-size steps, bold text and reduced motion. Show or hide lyrics or chords, pick the chord color, and keep your personal setup list and notes on screen. Every setting is per device — it never changes anyone else's view.
Stay on the right lyric and chord without touching the phone. You focus on playing, the member you follow drives the flow.
Even if someone changes the order, no one trades 'where are we?' looks; everyone's screen updates at once.
A horn player shifts the chords only on their screen; the song's key and the band's data stay intact.
Take a setlist into full-screen Stage Mode with one tap.
Turn on follow mode and pick the member driving the flow; your screen stays in sync with them.
Lyrics, chords and order in front of you; auto-scroll handles the rest.
