Spotify limits small apps like this one to 25 approved accounts, so sign-in only works if yours has been added. The demo works for everyone and never touches your Spotify.

How to use CueTime
🎵 What is CueTime?
CueTime lets you plan exactly what song will be playing at any moment during an event. Set a start time, reorder your tracks, and see a live clock next to every song. Perfect for DJs, weddings, parties, fitness classes — anywhere timing matters.
📋 Playlists Panel Left
Your Spotify playlists appear here. Use the search box to filter by name, or use the sort dropdown to order them alphabetically or by recently added. Click any playlist to load its tracks into the center view.
🎧 Tracks Panel Center
All tracks in your playlist are shown here with live clock times on the right edge of each row.
Reordering: Grab a track anywhere on its row and drag it up or down to a new position. On a phone or tablet, press and hold the track for a moment first, then drag — a quick swipe still scrolls the list as normal. The ⠿ dotted handle on the left works too. All clock times update instantly.
Find a track: Use the search box in the toolbar — type a track name or artist. Matches highlight in green and you can jump between them with the ▲ ▼ arrows or the Enter key. The full list stays visible, nothing is hidden.
Hour dividers: Coloured bands separate the playlist into hours so you can instantly see which songs fall in Hour 1, Hour 2, and so on.
⏱ Timeline Panel Right
Start time: Set what time the playlist begins — all clock times across the app update to match.
12h / 24h times: Switch between 12-hour (8:00pm) and 24-hour (20:00) under Settings in the top bar.
Hour blocks: Tracks are grouped by hour. Each block shows the clock time it starts and how long it runs. Tap any hour block header to collapse or expand it.
⏱ Move to Time
Move any track to a specific clock time instantly.
How to use it: Click the green clock time on the right of any track row. A small popover appears — enter the time you want that track to play (e.g. 10:00pm) and click Move here. The track automatically jumps to the closest possible position in the playlist to hit that time.
Closest position: The popover shows how close the move will get you — if the exact time falls mid-song it will tell you the offset in minutes so you know what to expect before confirming.
💾 Saving Back to Spotify
Reordering here changes nothing in Spotify until you choose to save.
Save as New: Creates a brand new private Spotify playlist with the current order. Your original is left completely untouched. This is the safe option if you're just experimenting.
Update Playlist: Reorders the playlist you started from, in place — same name, same songs, new order. CueTime only ever moves tracks within the playlist, so nothing can be dropped, and if a save is interrupted the playlist ends up partly reordered rather than damaged. The previous order isn't recorded though, so restoring it means dragging things back yourself.
