## What is BandHQ?

BandHQ is the digital bandroom — one place for everything your band currently
runs on group chats, spreadsheets and the notice board.

WHO IS COMING
Members reply Going, Maybe or Can't to every rehearsal and engagement. The
committee sees the answers in one list instead of chasing them.

SECTION COVERAGE AT A GLANCE
The bit a musical director actually needs: how each section is covered against
its established strength. Solo Cornet three of four. Eb Bass empty. You know
before the night, not on the night.

DEP REQUESTS
Flag the chairs you need covering. Members claim the ones they can play.

PRACTICE
Log what you have practised, set a weekly goal, keep a streak going. Musical
directors can set targets and see readiness across the band, with young
players' detail kept private.

BANDROOM CHAT AND NEWS
Channels for the whole band, announcements with photos, and comments — so the
important things stop getting lost between three different group chats.

BUILT FOR BANDS WITH YOUNG PLAYERS
Age is captured at sign-up. Under-18s get stricter privacy by default, a parent
or guardian can be invited to their own view, and one-to-one messages between
an adult and a young person are blocked outright — not as a setting a band can
switch off. Messages and images are checked automatically, and anyone can
report a message or a member.

FREE
BandHQ is free for your band, with everything above included.

Brass bands first. The section names, the parts and the language are the ones
your band already uses.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-09-28

Fixes BandHQ closing as soon as it opened on iPhones updated to iOS 27. Sorry to everyone who was locked out — the app opens normally again.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-09-20

A labelled Menu on every tab, so nothing is hidden behind an avatar.

Practice: logging a session without minutes no longer breaks the screen, and days practised this week counts every session.

Clearer screens for practice, renewals, events and the roster. Events opens on the next event. BandHQ links in News open in the app.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-08

No release notes.
