After working hard on it all summer, I've just released the initial Android version of Set List Maker. You can buy it now from the Google Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arlomedia.setlistmaker
This version does not yet have all the functionality of Set List Maker for iOS, but this page shows what's available so far and what is still to come:
http://www.arlomedia.com/apps/setlistmaker/main/features.html
I have also begun to note any functionality differences throughout the website documentation.
If you try the Android version, please be kind and remember that this is only version 1.0. If the Android version finds an audience like the iOS version has, there will be many more updates to come.
I'll answer any questions about the Android version below.
Installed and about to try out :)
Glad it's finaly there !
I use Set List Maker on an iPad currently. If I have an Android tablet and purchase SLM for it, would I be able to use it as a backup device if something happens to my iPad? So can I sync from my iPad to my Android tablet?
Thanks,
Dale
Yes, the database sync feature works across the two platforms.
Installed it last week, loaded all my data and needed to use it this past weekend. But when I tried using it w/ my Mixing Station app for the Behringer X32, Set List crashed and told me it was closing the app. I rebooted my tablet and tried again a few times, but with the same result. On it's own, works fine. Any thoughts? I'm hoping to try again this weekend?
Thanks...

Please send a message from Help > Request Tech Support inside the app, and use the step-by-step portion of that message to explain exactly what actions triggered the crash.
can't find it in the Play Store. If I put the link you had above into a browser on my tablet, I get webpage not available. Searched the play store for "set list maker" "setlistmaker" and arlomedia. Nothing
The link works for me, as does a search for "set list maker" or "setlistmaker".
If you were entering the link manually, can you go to forum.arlomedia.com and then navigate to this thread and click the link above?
Also, what Android version is installed on your tablet? Set List Maker requires Android 4.0.3, and Google might hide it from you if you have an older version.
I'm trying to use an old Toshiba Thrive that I have. It's running android 4.04. If I browse to the forum and click the link, I get the option to buy, but at the purchase screen, it only shows my Samsung Galaxy Phone listed under "Choose a Device". So I'm guessing that your app is not compatible with the Thrive?
The app includes the following hardware requirements ... I assume any Android tablet with the required OS version would support these, but maybe something is disabled or not available on your tablet. Does it include a memory card that apps can write to (WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)?
- used for MIDI and/or database sync features
INTERNET
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE
- used to access document and recording files
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
- used to save crash logs and compose the support request email
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
- used by the telephone number shortcut button, but not required
READ_PHONE_STATE
CALL_PHONE
required=false
- used to thwart piracy
CHECK_LICENSE
- used for in-app purchases
BILLING
ok, I restored my Thrive back to factory defaults and it let me download and install Set List Maker. I created a new blank database and I then purchased the Database Sync option (it crashed, but went back in and it seemed to have added it)and tried to sync and get - Connection Error - We were not able to update your database from the sync service (212). Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dale
update - I went ahead and purchased the Midi option (it crashed also) But when I restarted SLM and then tried the database sync again, it worked.
If I look under Midi Devices, it imported my device, but it crashes when I select it. Getting there.
I don't see the option to select a different color for chords. Will that be added?
If you see a crash that is reproducible, please send a message from Help > Request Tech Support and answer the questions there.
Text formatting will be coming in a future release: http://www.arlomedia.com/apps/setlistmaker/main/features.html
I just submitted version 1.0.1, with several bug fixes. It takes about 12 hours for new versions to appear on the Google Play store:
http://www.arlomedia.com/apps/setlistmaker/support/release_notes.html
I was just looking at the Android download button...
(http://www.arlomedia.com/apps/setlistmaker/images/play_store.png)
...and noticed how it starts with "Get It On." Is Google trying to say that its app store is sexier than Apple's?
Am I able to use device linking / broadcast screen from my iPad to my brothers Galaxy Tab?
Not yet, but in a future version:

I'm using a Nexus 7 OS version 4.4.4
The metronome and related flash do not work when touching the metronome icon to the right of the song list
Arlo is aware of the problem. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
I have tried each of the layouts and it does not work in any of them.
I have other versions for iPhone and iPad and the sync between them works fine.
When I press the metronome icon in the List Only view, the screen goes backward to the show list numerous times during the gig and makes the Android version unusable.
Please tap Help > Request Tech Support in the app and answer the questions there.
Hello Arlo,
Any timeline for adding notes to the Android version, or letting those of us with phablets pick tablet or phone layout?
You can add notes now to songs or shows. Do you mean document annotations?
Phablets use a one-column (phone) layout in portrait orientation and a two-column (tablet) layout in landscape orientation.
Sorry yes I mean document annotations!
The Android app right now is kind of a place holder for me, I'm excited about your move to the platform but I can't use it yet. On my Note 4, switching to landscape mode creates some kind of grey area on the right side (where the document would be) next to the buttons for document, midi preset etc. This is with the perform layout. At first I thought it might be because a PDF was missing but I found a song that has only chords and I can barely see the beginning of each line, the rest is grey. Worse, when I flip back to portrait view, the grey area moves to the bottom of the screen and nothing I can do gets rid of it, short of force quitting the app.
By the way is it true that layouts are not synced? Or did that go wrong for me somehow?
It would be best to send a message from Help > Request Tech Support so I can see your settings, and attach a couple screen shots to show the problem.
And yes, layouts are not synced. Layouts are specific to each device's screen and wouldn't translate from one device to another.
Yeah that makes sense.
Thanks, I'll send you a report soon.
