Cue list

Press GO. The next cue is ready.

Put your music in order and press GO. The next cue is always highlighted, so you see exactly what plays next.

  • Every cue knows what happens at its end: Stop, Next, Crossfade or Jump to any cue.
  • Trim in the waveform editor, fade in, fade out, loop, normalise.
  • Elapsed or remaining time at a tap. Reorder by drag & drop, even mid-show.
Sound packs included

The sounds come with it.

Background music
Included

Set the mood in one tap.

47 background tracks in three genres come with GoCue. One tap fills the gaps between the big moments, and when a cue or hit starts, the music fades out on its own.

Corporate · 14 tracks House · 18 tracks Easy Listening · 15 tracks

Shuffled, never the same track twice in a row, skip any time — or play your own tracks instead.

Walk-ons

Every entrance, on cue.

Walk-on music for every guest and winner, ready in the show-music pack.

Instant hits

Quiz & voting

Let the room decide.

Quiz Time!, voting beds and You Win! stings — music that runs while the room makes up its mind.

Always in reach

Silence in half a second.

PANIC stops every sound in half a second. FADE ALL brings everything down smoothly over three seconds. Both are always on screen.

Built for live

Calm under pressure.

A live show doesn’t get a second take. GoCue is built so nothing surprises you mid-event.

Keeps playing when locked

Sound continues if the screen locks or you briefly switch apps. The live screen stays on.

Waits for you after a call

After a call or alarm, GoCue never restarts on its own. It waits for the operator.

No internet during the show

Load the sound packs once. After that GoCue runs completely offline.

Before-your-show checklist

Load packs, Airplane Mode and Do Not Disturb, alarms off, then Guided Access. Right inside the app.

Clear messages

If audio is unavailable, for example during a FaceTime call, GoCue tells you and keeps retrying.

Never locks mid-show

Even when your trial ends, nothing ever stops while a show is playing.

Your shows, your files

Bring your own audio.

Import from the Files app, iCloud Drive or AirDrop. Keep several shows on one device, and export a whole show as a single .gocue file to open it on another.

M4A, AAC and AIFF are converted losslessly on import. Tracks from the Music library and copy-protected titles can’t be used.
