GO, STOP, pause, resume, and PANIC; cue lists, Carts, playhead, and playback status. Select cues, open and close groups, and use Load to Time to load a cue at a chosen point before GO. Connection status stays visible, and controls can be locked to avoid accidental taps.

Local connection, no account

Discover QLab on the network or enter the Mac IP address. The connection uses OSC over TCP and requires an open workspace and QLab View and Control permissions. CueRemote never requests Edit permission. The passcode belongs to the QLab workspace and is stored in the device secure credential store.

The Mac and phone or tablet must be able to communicate over the local network. Configure the firewall and avoid guest networks that isolate devices. Test the workspace, permissions, and reconnection before a show.

Questions and answers

What does CueRemote do?

It is a local-network QLab remote for GO, STOP, pause, resume, lists, Carts and Load to Time. QLab on the Mac runs the show and plays the media.

Is it free?

Yes. CueRemote has no in-app purchases, ads or subscription.

Where do I install it?

The remote is available for iPhone and iPad on the App Store and for Android phones and tablets on Google Play. QLab runs on the show’s Mac.

Does it replace QLab or edit cues?

No. CueRemote reads the workspace and sends control commands. It does not create, edit or delete cues. Prepare media and the show in QLab on the Mac.

How do I connect to the Mac?

Both devices must communicate over the local network. Enable OSC in QLab and grant View and Control permissions. Use network discovery or enter the IP manually, and allow Local Network access when requested.

What does Load to Time do?

It loads a cue at a chosen point before GO. Use it to prepare an entrance at another time; check the playhead, cue and visible list before execution.

What if QLab cannot be found?

Check IP addresses, subnet, OSC permissions and device isolation on the network. If discovery does not cross a VLAN, try a manual connection with a valid route.

Do I need an account or upload my show to a cloud?

No CueRemote account is required. The connection is local, with no analytics or tracking. Credentials use the operating system’s secure storage.
