Keep everything you need organized and ready, from planning the next rehearsal to playing the final song.
Band Companion gives bands and solo performers one clear place to organize songs, build setlists, plan events and keep important details ready.
No more searching through group chats, separate calendars or scattered files. Know what comes next, what to play and where to find it.
ORGANIZE YOUR SONGS
Build one dependable song library. Keep lyrics, chords, key, BPM, duration, status, song notes and a backing track with each song. Add a song once, then use it in any setlist.
TURN YOUR SONGS INTO A SET
Put songs in the right order, rearrange them in seconds and see the total playing time immediately. Add setlist notes and connect setlists to events, so everyone knows what to play and when.
KNOW WHAT'S NEXT
Plan rehearsals, shows, recordings, releases and more. Keep every date, reminder, detail and setlist in one calendar, so nothing important gets lost in a group chat.
SONG SHEETS THAT WORK YOUR WAY
Keep lyrics, chords and arrangement cues clear during rehearsals and performances. Highlight an entrance, mark a solo, choose what to show, adjust fonts and sizes, and let the song sheet scroll automatically while you play.
BACKING TRACKS, READY ON CUE
Attach a backing track to each song and play it directly from the song sheet. Jump to the part you need, keep recent tracks ready on your device and prepare every backing track in a setlist for offline use.
ONE SET. EVERYONE FOLLOWS.
Start a Live Session and every joined device follows the active song. One person leads the set, while you decide which device plays the backing track.
NOTES WHERE YOU NEED THEM
Create formatted notes for arrangements, practical details, checklists and useful links. Pin important notes and connect them directly to songs, setlists and events.
YOUR BAND, CONNECTED
Invite members with a link or code and keep everyone up to date in one shared space. Manage multiple bands, acts or projects without mixing their information.
AVAILABLE ON PHONE, TABLET AND WEB
Start on one device and continue on another. Your songs, setlists, events and notes stay up to date automatically and remain accessible when the internet connection is unreliable.
Band Companion is available in English, Dutch, German, French and Spanish.
Bring your songs, sets and dates together with Band Companion.
I love this app. It’s a life saver. Is there a wayI can move songs lyrics from one set list to another without having to retype or copy and paste them? Like having a master list you can drag and drop into a new set list when needed? Also, can key entry either lost all keys (flats) or the ability to manually add it?

Hi! Thank you for your feedback. If you go to the screen where you edit songs, there is a copy button at the bottom of the page. From there you can copy a song to a different setlist! Glad to hear you enjoy Band Companion!Cheers,Nicky
Good app as long as you have internet access and are patient with glitches

I have to say that so far using this app I have enjoyed the capabilities of the app but have been disappointed with the functionality. Where I rehearse with my band I don’t have internet access which means I have to have the app pulled up and ready on my iPad before I can go over there. It also means that if the app closes for any reason I have nothing and it has forced me to compile 3 sets and more than 3 hours of music into 1 massive list (making the 35 song limit a little problematic). The second major issue I have is trying to rearrange my set order. It has been an absolute nightmare trying to change the order because once you try to drag a song into position you have absolutely no idea where it is going to end up. I can try to slide it up and it may end up going all the way to the bottom. It is literally 3 steps forward and 2 steps back to arrange your songs. If the developer is able to give some sort of offline access for when internet connection is not an option and fix the glitches of song arrangement I am very likely to give this app a 4-5 star rating instead.

Terrible. Absolutely horrible.

The interface is buggy. The process to create set lists is overly complicated. But the main problem is this thing will just arbitrarily remove songs from not only the set list, but the library. You haven’t lived until you’ve done a gig where you have to take long breaks between every other song while you google search and copy/paste lyrics that you have to re-add to your library (so that you can then add to your setlist). It’s a really simple task (putting lyrics up on your iPad) that should be really easy to achieve. But this app manages to fail. It’s happened to me at almost every gig. Songs disappear from all lists. And sometimes lyrics will be replicated out of nowhere. I thought maybe it had something to do with the internet reception. But it happens with any Wi-Fi reception scenario. Also, why does it have to connect to the internet at all? I’ve copied lyrics from the internet to my iPad. I should be able to look at stuff that’s saved on my iPad without an internet connection.

Hi SamDBL,Thank you for your review, feedback helps us improve the app. In regard to creating a setlist, it is good to know songs are managed in the library. Then go to your setlist and tap the + icon in the top right corner to manage the songs in the setlist. In regard to the changing of songs in your setlist and library, could it be possible that band members are making these changes? - We have no knowledge of this happing to other users.Please reach out to us through contact@bandcompanion.app so we can assist you further where needed.Fr re,Nicky
Great App
not fake real review i swear
Great app, I would normally give it a 5 but since I can’t find a way to submit an issue. Today 08/24 we tried using for church like we normally do but the app keeps going black and doesn’t work. We made sure everything was updated tried uninstalling and reinstalling. We have about 200 songs typed up. It’s a great app and super user friendly. Wish there was an easier way to reach out for help. Once the bug fixes are fixed I’ll update
We've improved the stability, fixed known issues and made minor user interface enhancements.
