What's New in BandJam

1.25.0

October 6, 2026

What's new in BandJam 1.25.0: • Paste a Spotify link: drop a link from the Spotify app into the song search and it finds that exact track. • Profile bios: tell your league about your taste in music, in up to 160 characters. • Delete your messages: remove your own message in league chat, crew chat or a direct message. Replies show that it was deleted. • Who reacted: press and hold a reaction to see who sent it, and react with a fire emoji. • Notes while you listen: in Scheduled leagues, the listening period shows the notes players added to their songs, without saying who sent them. • Simpler round timing: pick Twice a day, Every day, Every week or Custom when you set up a Scheduled league. Rounds now keep the same clock time across daylight saving changes. • Add rounds anytime: add a round straight from the Rounds tab, and admins get a heads up on league home when the last rounds are coming up. • Room to explain: league descriptions can be up to 1000 characters. • Everyone in one place: See all opens the full member list. Improvements and fixes: • Direct messages open instantly. • Scrolling a chat dismisses the keyboard. • Chat messages are ordered by the server's clock, so a phone set to the wrong time no longer puts messages out of order. • The bio field wraps so you can read everything you write.

User reviews

Just needs more users

Had someone join a Music League I’m in to advertise for this app, and I downloaded and played a round because I was curious. UI is very sleek (fairly neutral on this, it kinda gives me personalityless native Apple app vibes) but having no ads is a plus. The “crews” feature seems useful for people running recurring leagues with the same groups of people. There’s an added feature where you guess who submitted each song which seems fun for playing with friends, but maybe a little awkward for public leagues. They have settings to ban repeat song submissions and duplicate artist submissions which Music League desperately needs. But I’d say the main appeal is support for Apple Music and YouTube Music in addition to Spotify, which Music League does not offer. The main drawback is that there’s just not really an active playerbase for people playing public leagues like there is on Music League (which i guess is why they have staff advertising it there lol). As someone who really likes playing in public lobbies it’s not close to replacing Music League for me anytime soon considering how many more people actively play there and how few people play here but overall it does seem like a good alternative for playing private leagues with friends or if you have friends who use Apple Music or YouTube Music instead of Spotify.

Better than anything else

This is FAR better than the competition. The only thing I'd ask for is a way to cap the rounds of a Crew Bucket-based league, so people can submit themes while having a regular league cadence. For example, cap at 5 rounds, it picks 5 themes, marks them as "played" as the league goes, then people can continue to submit and we have regularly selected winners. Thanks for the great app!

Better than Music League

All you need to know is whether this is actually better than Music League. It is.

(The only downside is the lack of a web version, but if you’re on a Mac you can download the iPad version to your Mac, or use iPhone Mirroring, if you want a full keyboard to write comments and such. Otherwise I believe it to be better than ML in every sense.)
