What’s New

Version 2024-07-26

* Added Settings > Advanced > Use New Swipe Logic to make horizontal swiping in the set list view and calendar view smoother and more intuitive. You can also adjust the swipe sensitivity with the Less Sensitive Swipes and More Sensitive Swipes settings. You will need to leave and reenter the set list view or calendar view for these settings to take effect. Please send feedback if you try them.

• Updated the new Settings popup window to update document and audio functions without needing to reload the page.

• Updated the new Heading function in the Lyrics field to work on lines that start with a marker.

• Updated the More Buttons layout template for phones to include a tempo button and a recording button instead of the transpose buttons.

• Fixed the Display Screen From and Follow Actions From buttons when accessed from the Settings > Live Sharing page.

• Updated the edit pages so that selecting a field will move it into view after the on-screen keyboard appears.

• Updated smart lists to allow filtering by no rating (rating equals 0).

• Added an Include In iCalendar Feed setting to the custom field edit page.

• Renamed the Public setting on the event edit page to Include In Website Widget.

Changes to chord text font

Just wanna start odd by saying this app is amazing and been using it for close to 3 years.
Just went to go to my set list and I go to find that the ‘Personal Chord Text Font’ has been changed from a font that was easy to read to hardly seeing the letter.
Is there an option to change the font for chord text?
Thanks

Extremely hard to beat!

Been using this app for about 5 years, maybe longer. It is brilliant and saves a whole load of printing hard copies for the rest of the band. Has the ability to load documents that apply to individuals rather than the whole band within one song. So if you’ve 1 guitarist playing in “cowboy chord” Dm and one playing a capoed Bm, whilst they’re both attached to a given song, each player will only see their version. Same with midi messages. You can have 2, or more, different setups within a song with 2, or more, buttons showing on the interface but it only sends the info for the button you push, and this is just scratching the surface of what it can do. On a bang for buck basis there’s nothing else like it. Nice work Arlo!

Amazingly responsive developer

I came to BandHelper years ago from SetList Maker. Arlo is quite possibly the most responsive developer I’ve ever dealt with - any issue I’ve encountered has not just been solved, but more often than not results in another app update to ensure that others don’t have the same problem.

The community that has built up around BandHelper continues to be innovative, supportive and helpful, and I honestly can’t envisage band life without this app… I’m sure I could do even more with it, but just being able to effectively manage songs, lyrics, chord charts, set lists and venues alone is worth the price of admission.

Thanks, Arlo - long may you reign!
