Lyrics and chords floating in front of you, no music stand, no looking down.
Three already-sung lines above for context, the line you are on, and the lines coming up, each with its chords directly above the words they belong to, in your transposed key. There is no arrow: the line you are singing is always the same row, so nothing moves around to distract you.
The first character on the top row is the play state, in one fixed place:
| Character | Means |
|---|---|
* | Playing |
= | Paused |
- | Ready, not started yet |
! | Running from the offline copy |
A + marks the first line of each section, so you can see a chorus or bridge arriving without looking down at the iPad. The display is decluttered automatically: blank lines, separators, tab blocks, chord diagrams, and section headers are filtered out so every row of the small display is lyrics and chords, your songs themselves are untouched. In voice mode the lens flips to the next line just before you need it.
| Gesture | While a song is showing |
|---|---|
| Tap | Start / stop the scroll |
| Scroll down / up | Forward / back one line (two quick scrolls the same way jumps 5) |
| Double tap | Open the song list for the current setlist |
| Gesture | In the menus |
|---|---|
| Scroll | Move the highlight |
| Tap | Open the highlighted song or setlist, a Tuner row sits at the bottom of the setlists menu |
| Double tap | Go up a level (songs → setlists → back to your song) |
| Gesture | On the “Linked” waiting screen |
|---|---|
| Scroll | Open your setlists (there’s nothing to scroll yet, so the gesture is free) |
| Double tap | Leave QMe and return to the glasses’ own menu |
| Triple tap | Unpair, deliberately hard to do by accident |
Song picks from the glasses start playback automatically (you can’t reach the phone), and stale commands queued while your phone was locked are discarded rather than yanking your set around.
QMe caches the setlist to the glasses (up to 60 songs, plus a browser of up to 50 setlists). If the connection drops mid-show, the lens keeps showing lyrics and chords, marks itself OFFLINE, and you drive it entirely from the glasses, running past a song’s end rolls into the next song. Live sync resumes by itself. Closing the teleprompter on the iPad doesn’t blank the glasses either.
If the text looks dim, raise the display brightness in the Even app (turn off auto-brightness to set it manually), and adjust the display position and nose pads, the closer the projection sits to the centre of your vision, the brighter it reads.
