Messages to the room
With set phrases you let the whole room know at once what's happening. After "Say: tune your instrument" and "Warn the next group", "Undo" shows above your buttons for ten seconds: with it you take it back. Whoever you call also gets it as a notification on their phone.

Choose a phrase
Tap the bar at the top, and Tonight opens. In Tonight, tap "Announce" to see "Tune your instrument now", "We're taking a short break" and "Last round". Calling up and switching you do with the buttons at the bottom.

Break and last round
The break is in the same list as a switch: on for as long as it's up. During the break it says "End the break" at the bottom; with that, or with another tap in the list, the night carries on. You send last round only once; if you tap it by accident, you take it back in the same place. Break and last round show as a badge in the bar at the top for as long as they apply.

The call at the switch
"Come to the stage" goes automatically to whoever is on the next song as soon as you switch. Below the sentence you see per spot who's coming, who hasn't said anything yet and which spot is free.

The call keeps sounding
If someone doesn't answer, the call sounds again on their phone every half minute, until they answer or the song starts. After five minutes it stops; then you can tap "Call … again" yourself.

Ask the room
If there's still a free spot on the next song, tap "Ask the room for someone". The request goes to everyone in the room who plays that instrument and isn't on that song yet; whoever taps first is on.

Taking too long?
If a song plays for more than a quarter of an hour without a switch, a message at the top asks whether it's still playing: switch or take a break.
