Visual polish across the app, with clearer text and better contrast throughout. Thanks for the feedback and reviews — keep it coming.

Reliability and polish improvements across Game Mode, Atmosphere, and the Apple Watch app. Thanks for the feedback and reviews — keep it coming.

You can now rate OnDeckDJ any time from Settings. We also improved when the app asks for your feedback, so it waits for a natural break instead of interrupting a game.

Atmosphere: keep the crowd in it between innings. Set up a playlist once and let it run between innings - pick an Apple Music playlist, or hand-pick songs yourself. It ducks out of the way the instant a walk-up starts and never talks over your announcer. - Start it from Game Mode: an Atmosphere button sits right beside your batter controls, so the music is one tap away without leaving the screen - Start, pause, skip, stop - all one tap, with Stop the biggest target for when an umpire asks for quiet - Works with Apple Music or your own imported songs - Never interrupts a walk-up: Atmosphere yields to every announcement, walk-up song and situational clip automatically Also in this release: New season, everything still works. OnDeckDJ now tells you BEFORE game day if a walk-up song won't play - an imported file that's gone missing, or Apple Music needing to be reconnected - instead of you finding out at the first at-bat. - Fixed a case where the music could stay quiet after an announcement instead of coming back up - Apple Music song search now retries when Apple's servers are briefly unavailable, instead of blaming your connection - Fixed review prompts being lost when they were earned while your screen was locked

Team Link improvements and fixes. - Coach's link now opens correctly even when the app isn't already running - Song suggestions always apply to the right player - Parents can see when a shared lineup last updated, and if sharing has ended - Deleting a team or your data now removes it from iCloud too - Following a coach's team no longer uses up your own team slot - Pro now follows unlimited teams - Clearer messages when iCloud is slow or unavailable Also in this update: - Fixed a rare crash while announcements were loading - Announcements are no longer skipped when your speaker or audio adapter reconnects mid-game - Voice credits are now kept on your account, so reinstalling can't lose them - Purchases apply reliably even on a weak connection at the field

TEAM LINK - share your team with one live link. - Send your lineup to the whole team. Parents get the full game-day experience free: walk-ups, announcements, and celebrations for every player. - Your edits sync to everyone automatically. Change a song Saturday morning and every phone at the field is already up to date. - Parents can suggest a song for their player. You get an approval inbox - one tap to use it or pass. You stay in charge of the lineup. - Private by design: everything travels through your own iCloud. No accounts, no sign-ups. Sending a file still works like always - Team Link is the new live option next to it. Plus reliability improvements under the hood.

Game Day, refined • Your whole lineup and all four celebration calls now fit on one screen — no scrolling for the big moments. • Clearer labels so you always know when a celebration call uses a credit — and that replays are always free. • Volume moved to a tidy tap-away control, giving the batter card and controls more room. Also new: a Send Feedback option in Settings — we read everything. Plus the usual polish and fixes.

New announcer lineup! Meet 10 distinct stadium voices — from The Closer's full-hype intro to The Veteran's calm, steady call, plus hype men, showstoppers, and more.

Add your own sounds, plus new Victory, Rally and 7th-Inning Stretch slots and a stop-everything button for when the pitcher is ready. - Scan your roster. Photograph a printed lineup and the names and numbers fill themselves in.

The Bulletproof Game Day update: - Share a lineup and the announcements travel with it. The receiving phone is ready to play instantly, with no credits and no internet needed at the field. - Faster walk-up starts: the next batter's announcement and song are prepared before you tap Play. - Game Mode controls are now always on screen. Play, next batter, and volume never scroll away mid-game. - Picking an Apple Music song now flags explicit tracks and offers the clean version in one tap. - A new reminder helps you generate any missing announcements before you head to the field. - Major reliability improvements for Bluetooth speakers, AirPods and CarPlay controls, interrupted playback, and team colors that were hard to read.
