## What is MusicConnect?

MusicConnect brings your whole musical life into one app — competitions, your band, your tutor and your practice, all in one place.

Whether you play in a pipe band, orchestra, concert band, marching band or jazz group, sing in a choir, or compete as a soloist or Highland dancer, MusicConnect is built for you.

COMPETITION DAY, SORTED
See exactly when you're on. Your draw number, start time and venue sit on one screen, with a reminder when it's time to warm up. Browse the full programme by event, by time, or as the running order. Results arrive the moment the organiser publishes them, and top-three finishes come with a certificate you can share.

YOUR BAND, ORGANISED
A private space for every band you're in — announcements, group channels, shared repertoire and setlists with sheet music attached, rehearsal attendance, fees and photo galleries.

PRACTICE THAT ADDS UP
Log sessions and watch your streak build. Use the built-in metronome and tuning reference tones, set a BPM goal for a tune and track it to target tempo, test yourself with theory quizzes and sight-reading exercises, and browse a shared library of tunes with recordings.

TUTORS AND LESSONS
Find a tutor in the directory and connect. Book lessons in person or online, follow the practice plans, homework and goals your tutor sets, and watch on-demand video lessons.

FOR ORGANISERS
Create and run your own competitions end to end — set up events and grades, take entries, build the timetable and draw, go live for scoring on the day, and publish results straight to competitors.

COMMUNITY
Add friends and message them directly. Organise sessions — rehearsals, jams, workshops or a casual catch-up. Keep everything you have coming up in one shared calendar, and list or browse second-hand gear.

OPTIONAL REWARDS
Earn XP, credits and ranks as you practise and compete, complete weekly challenges and climb the leaderboard. Not your thing? Turn gamification off completely in Settings and the app hides all of it.

BUILT WITH YOUNGER MUSICIANS IN MIND
Accounts for under-13s need a parent or guardian's permission before they become active. Younger members are private by default and harder to contact. You control who can see your age, who can message you, and whether you appear in search. Any message, photo, post or profile can be reported, and any member can be blocked.

OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTIONS
Free to use. Optional subscriptions unlock extra tools for tutors, band administrators and competition organisers.

Minor bug fixes

### 1.03 — 2026-08-30

New
• Catering — organisers can see what judges and stewards asked to eat
  and drink, and mark each order delivered.
• Competition day — you're now told when your event time changes or
  results are published, and your day stays on screen if you lose signal.
• Organisers can shift a whole running-late schedule in one go.
• Marketplace — categories drill down instead of one long list, with a
  browse filter and room to name your own.
• Tutors — choose a music group, then the instruments you teach.
• Light or dark is now its own setting, separate from your theme.
• No ads on any paid plan.
• Tap a "?" anywhere a label can't explain itself.

Fixed
• Notifications now open the right screen.
• Check-in works when you're entered in more than one event.
• Several home screen cards that never appeared now do.
