Features & Capabilities

Band Companion helps bands and solo performers manage songs, setlists, rehearsals, shows, recordings and releases in one organized workspace. Store lyrics, chords, keys, BPM, duration, notes and backing tracks in a shared song library, then build setlists with automatic total playing times and event details.

Use customizable song sheets with arrangement cues, highlighting, font controls and auto-scroll during rehearsals and performances. Attach and play backing tracks, prepare them for offline use, and start Live Sessions so connected devices follow the active song. Invite band members, manage multiple projects, create linked notes and access synchronized information across phone, tablet and web.

User Reviews

Band Companion shows promise for gigging musicians with an easy-to-use lyric reader and centralized lyrics/setlist workflow, but users report serious reliability problems. Recurrent crashes and white screens lead to inaccessible libraries and wiped setlists, with data loss occurring after updates. Support is frequently hard to reach, and premium purchases may not be recognized, prompting re-purchases. Offline use and cross-device syncing are inconsistent, leaving musicians reliant on a stable internet connection for basic operation. Overall, reliability and support are the main issues.

Pros

User-friendly interface for reading lyrics on stage.
Helpful for gigs with a centralized lyrics library and setlist workflow.
Life-saving tool for gigging musicians needing quick lyric access.
Can store a sizable library of songs/lyrics.

Cons

Frequent crashes/white screens causing data loss and inability to use during gigs.
Data loss or setlists/songs disappearing after updates or due to bugs.
Poor customer support with unresponsive help options.
Premium purchases not being recognized or prompting for repurchase.
Offline access limitations and reliance on internet (and syncing issues across devices).

If you tried this app early on and found your songs would disappear occasionally, I’m happy to report that that has not happened in the past year. They finally figured out whatever it was that was causing that and it works great now - very reliable!

Several of our band members have been using the app for years. Had several reliability problems over the years. This last practice for an important gig the app quit working for all our members. All the work in our library is now inaccessible as the app isn’t working. Reported problem but no response. Now searching for more reliable solution and canceling service.
