this is đŸ€—đŸ˜ČđŸ„ł

band is such an amazing app, especially since my theatre uses it for choreography videos and schedules. who ever knew you could just click a screen and you’re next two weeks are planned? overall, great. one tiny unfortunate thing keeps happening to me though. i have a hotspot, but everytime i’m in the car trying to watch one of the videos they posted, it won’t load. i don’t know if it is the internet or just my phone, but it NEVER loads. 💀i just WISH this would stop happening. if ur still readin

Bug fixes

Hello this is the best app ever! But as I open this app it keeps logging me out of it and I’ve deleted and downloaded many, many times. And I was just asking if you can please pretty please fix this bug because this app is what I need from my daughter’s coach’s reminders and game dates and other important information. Thank you very much and by the way I would say this is the best app I’ve ever seen anyone invented.

Volleyball

I love the. Band app because it has been keeping in touch with my coaches for all my sports

Very buggy!!

Whenever I try to go to the profile page either from settings or the home page the app freezes and I can’t access it!!

Needs and undo option

I love the app but there needs to be an undo option when typing posts. I’ve lost things I’ve typed when putting a #

Best group app I’ve used!

I am a public school teacher and a mom, so I’ve tried a lot of different group chat apps, and this one by far has been the best one for organizing, and the most fun! Currently, I have 10 groups in my BAND and the organizational elements of this app help keep me sane through all of my groups. I refer to band so often throughout my year so that I don’t have to remember everything! My students love posting pictures and video and participating in the group chats. The calendar feature is perfect for

Updates

The updates options are really not good I hit update and it goes to the App Store and says open in app and it is the same thing over and over how can you update if it want just runs in a loop

Unknown

Band is an ok app honestly it gets annoying that they technically time your calls but also it for some reason will not let me call but all in all it’s an ok app

Can’t watch videos

I love band app it’s a great way to talk to coaches and teachers but I hate how much it loads when watching videos it’s so laggy and the quality is awful.

It is a great app

I use BAND for my cheer team. It is amazing. It helps the team keep up with the conditioning, the schedule, and cheers. I definitely recommend it to anyone who is included in some sort of activity, sport, or group that needs to keep in touch when not in person. AMAZING app. Couldn’t ask for more!

W app

This thing fire đŸ”„

Band

It doesn’t let me watch the videos that my coach sent to everyone so u need to fix that that’s the only problem

Help

Thank you advance for the help. The recording of our Worship service disappear from the App today. Is there anyway to have it retrieved. It was there for several people viewed it. Help or advise please. Thank. VS

Doesn’t work

This is a great app. Only issue I have is. I can’t use it without WiFi and that’s so annoying. I have an iPhone 13pro and should be able to use it like all my other apps without WiFi.

video loading

the app is pretty good overall, but the only problem i have with it is when someone uploads videos and i try to watch it , even with good internet connection, it still lags badly and i cannot watch the videos with out the screen turning black or buffering.

Good, but Adding Pictures is awful!

The adding pictures feature is glitchy. I only have one shot at a prompt to add photos to upload per time I open the app. If I’d like to add more photos and be prompted again, I have to force-close the app and start all over. And, when the pics are uploaded, I have to come completely out of the add photos screen and go back on again in order for what I added to show up to be selected. It’s super annoying and IDK how I’ve been dealing with it all these years. Please fix this, I beg you.

ur app

your app won’t let me search for a band that i am looking for pls help.

Band

I love band it’s amazing!💚💚💚💚

Really laggy.

This is an essential app for the arts program at my school. We use this for setting up events and posting tracks, choreography, etc. However, it’s sooo laggy. Everytime I click on a video to watch it, it takes a good minute for it to play. Even then, it often decides to stop playing out of nowhere. My main issue is with downloading videos. It refuses to download anything without me having to repeatedly tap on the download button for a good few minutes. Overall, I wish this app wasn’t so difficul

Chats

The app is amazing but it says chat temporarily disabled so I can’t talk to people

If anyone is wondering how to change their profile picture

You have to actually click on the specific band you’re in to change it, not your profile from the Home Screen of band app, after that you just hit settings and it’s right there at the top, which in my opinion is a bit tedious. I had some trouble with this today but eventually overcame this hurdle of a communication issue. This app definitely has room to improve and has potential.

Pretty good app

I like this app but why can’t you change your profile picture without it deleting your history? Sometimes we like to change our profile picture. Say someone changes their hair color. Wouldn’t it be nice for them to be able to change their picture to show that?

Photo

I just downloaded this app for cheer and I went to add a photo to my profile. I searched for one and then tapped back out of it. Now the only option to edit my photo takes me to a “recent” file with no photos in it and won’t let me change or add anything. How do I work around this?

Attendance

Hello please think about making the attendance sheet for an event able to multi select members as present, late, absent, and so forth. It is a pain to have to select each one and put their status when you have a lot of members at an event.

The Great band app

It’s super useful and great Communication

Great work

It’s a very good app I am a competitive cheerleader and this is a amazing app for my team and for others too❀

Very Buggy and Annoying

The app is alright. I use it for theaters and we send videos of choreography through the stream. The videos never load and if they do it’s only for a few seconds. It won’t let me download the videos to my photos so J have to screen record all of them. The rest of the features are all right.

Google sheet functionality

Love the app. One quirk is when we embed a Google signup sheet it doesn’t open directly. It prompts u to download it even though I already have it. Then when u click thru it still doesn’t open. Pls fix this! Thx

Exactly what I was looking for!

I searched high and low for an app that I could use to host a work-related discussion board that didn't require a Facebook account. This is the one! Has everything I needed and more.

Idk

It’s okay but videos take so long to view even with good internet or service it takes so long to watch and they stop after like the first two seconds. Every other video on YouTube or TikTok works fine I just struggle to watch videos on this app.

Bill split feature

I used to absolutely love this app for organizing my 5-person household. It’s almost like Facebook for small groups. There are so many features
 calendar with subscription options, private chat function, calendar, etc. My grown kids pay rent to us everymonth so we were using the bill split feature to keep track of who had paid. That feature now requires you to have a stripe account.

Band is great, one recent glitch?

My fitness group has been using Band for about a year. We post pictures and videos daily of our activities, everything has been wonderful until about a month ago. Can someone help me with videos that show expired? As soon as someone posts a video, it shows as expired and everyone’s feed, and no one can watch it.. please help!

BEST APP EVER!!

Honestly its the best app ever for any sorts of clubs or groups. I need this for soccer and its honestly the best app out there.

Great Ideas, So-So execution

I love the BAND app
 seriously- it makes cataloging our exercises and run throughs so easy. There are a lot of great functions- however some features on the app just don’t work super well
 For example, the labeling feature. I love the idea, but it’s super buggy. I try to label something, and sometimes it flat out doesn’t work, sometimes it links to the correct label but doesn’t show the post anyway
 very annoying but if it gets fixed, that will be an awesome feature!

Useful across all my devices

I am able to easily keep up with Band activity no matter where I am. If you have a Mac with an M1 or later processory, then it will run the iPadOS version just fine. Our aquarium club uses it all the time I can dictate a quick response on my iPhone to place a bid on a fish. I can type out a long club message on my iPad in the coffeeshop. Plus, if I am working on my desktop at home and a Band notification comes across, I can instantly get the jump on that nice group of aquatic plants. G

Love this app!! Expired videos?!?

Videos under 3 minutes are saved permanently- I have 97GB left and all my videos (20 seconds - 60 seconds) are expired?? I’ve used this app for the second year, created a new band for each squad and don’t know why all my videos/pics are expired?!?

Service

I have done updates on both Band and Apple and the service of the Band live stream is awful connection. Is there anything I need to do to make it better. Being his app since 2020 and the reception has not been this bad.

Lost the save the picture option after new update

Things were fine until the update was pushed to my phone. Now it seems that iPhone users cannot save pictures from the app anymore. Please fix it!

It’s broken

It use to work fine but now when I try to open the app it just closes

Lag

It usually works pretty well. But after the most recent update it has limited what I can do. I can’t even go on the band app with out it lagging out. And the funny thing is I have a pretty updated phone so it ain’t because I have an outdated phone. Please get this fix so I can go on the band app without it lagging out

UPDATE

I am having a problem updating the new update. I have tried several times. I click where it says to update, it takes me to the app but nothing happens. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong! Won't update! Very disappointed!

Could be better

Currently the Mac desktop app is buggy and will not let me post from my macbook pro M3 pro on the desktop app. Posts from my iphone works. I also wish it let me only turn on notifications for posts from specific individuals. There are literally hundreds of posts from people i don't need notified for, and if i have notifications turned on my phone is going off constantly at all hours of the day and night.

Stupid.

This app says it’s for twelve years old and up. I am twelve, and every time I put my birthdate in, it says I should get the band for kids app. See, I’m in the band at my school, and our band director wanted us to join this app for communication. I can’t now. Change this, please.

Not very stable

It unilaterally booted me off my page and won’t let me reconnect

UI is bad

Trying to send and receive messages does not work well. Clicking on a notification does not bring you to where the notification was sent. Navigating the thousands of menus is hard.
