Logic stops, goes to that song's marker, and plays straight away if you've set the song to auto-play.

In Logic Remote you'd step through markers in project order.
Play, pause, stop, previous and next are large buttons you can hit without looking twice. In the apps, each press gives a short vibration.

Logic Remote keeps the mixer and editing a tap away.
The Now page shows what's playing and what's next, with a big Next button and Previous, Stop, Play and Pause underneath. Your phone stays locked in your pocket.
Logic Remote and MainStage don't run on Apple Watch.
The Songs page lists the set; tap any song to jump to it, or tap the set's name to pick another. Scroll with the Digital Crown.
A firm tap when the Mac has made the change, and a different buzz with a short message when it couldn't. Nothing to hear or see on a loud stage.
A red banner and a buzz when Logic is blocked by a dialog, when Logic closes, or when the Mac drops off the network. Fix Logic is on the watch's Logic page.
A MIDI footswitch can move the set on, but it can't tell you Logic is stuck.

Install the watch app from the iPhone's Watch app, then tap Set up Apple Watch in the iPhone app. Keep the watch app open on screen for the set; the setup guide shows how.
Reorder, add or rename songs on any phone and the others update straight away. The Mac holds the one copy everybody works from.
MainStage sets are edited in the concert on the Mac.

Logic responds to the phones even when another app is in front.

If something goes wrong at a gig, the menu opens the logs so you can see what happened.
The Mac serves the same app to any phone's browser over your Wi-Fi, and it can be added to the Home Screen.

Everything runs between the phones and the Mac on your router. The app collects nothing about you.
Each phone asks for the person's name when pairing, so changes and copies say who made them.
