Your night in Spot
-
-
Request your songs
Search the host's catalog by song or artist. If the host allows it, type a title and artist that aren't in the catalog.
Song pages show the lyrics when they're available.
-
Watch your place in line
See where you are and roughly when you're up. The estimate adds up the songs ahead of you, and the host sets the running order, so it can shift as the night goes.
When your host turns on notifications, Spot can tell you when you're close, when you're next and when you're on.
-
Put Spot on your Home Screen
Spot opens like an app from your Home Screen, and that's what makes notifications possible.
- Add it from your browser: Share, then Add to Home Screen (on Android, Install app).
- Open k5e Spot from your Home Screen.
- On iPhone and iPad, sign in again: the Home Screen app keeps its own sign-in.
- At your next night, tap Notify me and allow notifications.
On iPhone and iPad, notifications only work from the Home Screen.

Questions

What is k5e?
k5e runs live karaoke nights. Singers use k5e Spot on their phone to get in line, request songs and see when they’re up. Hosts use k5e Cue to run the queue, the rotation and the screen for the room.
How do I join a night?
Create your free k5e Spot account at spot.k5e.live any time, even before your first night. At the venue, scan the QR code on the screen or type the event code, then request your songs. Spot runs in your phone’s browser; add it to your Home Screen and it opens like an app.
How do I sign in to k5e?
Create a k5e account with your email, or use Sign in with Google or Sign in with Apple. When you choose Google, k5e receives your name and email address to create and identify your account, nothing more. k5e never posts to your account and does not access any other Google data.
Will I get a notification when I'm up?
When your host turns notifications on for the night, Spot can tell you when you’re getting close, when you’re next and when you’re on. On iPhone and iPad, notifications only work once Spot is on your Home Screen.
Do I pay through Spot?
No. When a host charges entry or takes tips, Spot shows the entry amount and how your host takes payment. The money goes straight to your host: k5e doesn’t process payments.
How much does it cost?
A k5e Spot account is free for singers. Hosting with k5e Cue is free during the soft launch.
What devices does it work on?
k5e Spot is made for phones: iPhone and iPad in Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox, and Android in Chrome. k5e Cue runs in a modern browser on a laptop or desktop, with the room screen on a TV or projector.
Next up: you.
