OnSong Connect

OnSong Connect is a communications layer in OnSong that allows your device to control or to be controlled by other compatible apps on your local network using WiFi. OnSong uses this communications layer to "connect" devices together with a robust network. This allows you to share your music by either beaming songs and sets, or by sharing the music on a leader's device with other members of the team.

The Connect screen contains five tabs that comprise the various levels to connection of devices, as well as tools for customizing how your device participates in OnSong Connect.
