Dividers

A set is more than songs. There are welcomes, breaks, or simply stage notes. A divider brings those moments into the setlist, so you always keep track.

On stage a divider behaves like a song. You land on it when you swipe or press a pedal, it fills the screen, and it can hold whatever you need to read at that moment.

What a divider is

A divider has a title and an optional body.

The title is what you see in the running order, so it is worth keeping short: Welcome, Announcements, Break, Prayer, Tech check.

The body is free text, and it is shown exactly as you typed it. No chords, no ChordPro, no formatting to learn. Write your announcement in full, list the three points you want to hit, or note the key change coming up. A body can hold up to 20,000 characters, which is far more than anyone reads on stage.

A divider without a body is perfectly normal. It marks the moment in the running order, and that is all it needs to do.

Where dividers live

Dividers live in the library next to your songs, and they use the same folders. That means a divider is reusable. Write a "Break" once, for example, and add it to every set you put together.

Open the Dividers section below the setlist editor to see them, add one with the add button, and edit one from its row. The section has its own folder filter, so it follows the same folder logic as the song list.

Titles have to be unique within a folder. Two folders can each have a divider called Welcome, and the app keeps them apart. Inside one folder the name is taken once.

Fold the section away when you do not need it. The chevron hides it, a tap on the wave at the bottom of the setlist brings it back, and the seam drags it open as far as you want. The app remembers how you left it.

Using dividers in a setlist

A divider goes into a setlist the same way a song does, and you can add it to as many setlists as you like. The same divider can also appear more than once in the same setlist. A set with three announcements is three entries pointing at one divider.

A divider does not take a number in the running order. See Numbering.

Dividers on stage

Swiping or pressing a foot pedal walks the whole set, so a divider is an entry like any other. You land on it, read what is there, and carry on to the next song. The setlist navigator shows dividers in the running order too, so you can jump straight to one.

Editing a divider

The divider editor is simpler than the song editor. There are no tabs, just the title, the body, and the folder. Undo and redo sit in the top bar, an unsaved change is guarded when you leave, and a title is required to save.

Double tapping a divider on stage opens its editor, the same as double tapping a songsheet.

Dividers in exports

A divider never becomes a file of its own.

It does appear wherever a set is listed:

• In the setlist PDF, in the running order on the first page, printed in place and without a number.
• In the copied text list, as a bare line between the numbered songs.

A ZIP export of a setlist holds one ChordPro file per song and nothing for the dividers. See Import and export.

Finding a divider

Search finds dividers by title and by their text, in the same list as your songs and ranked the same way. A divider result is marked as one, and a hit in the body is labelled as the divider's text rather than as lyrics. See Search.
