Log every show you see and plan festivals with your crew, all in one place. Type a show like you'd text a friend. "turnstile @ metro" or "green day in austin" is enough: Doors @ sorts out the artist, the venue or city, and the date. Every gig becomes part of a permanent record of the shows you've seen, the artists you keep coming back to, and the nights you don't want to forget. TRACK EVERY SHOW • Log in one line, even at a dead-zone venue. It syncs when you're back online. • Mistakes like a missing day or a stray @ get flagged before you log. • Review suggests the right spelling and genres for each show. • Import your history: paste your concert list from Notes and get years of shows in at once, with an undo. • Recap shows your year adding up: total shows, top artists, top venues, busiest month. • Turn your year into a shareable lineup poster, styled like the real thing. • Swipe to favorite (up to 3 a year) or delete. PLAN THE FEST WITH YOUR CREW • See every stage and set on the Grid, or by time slot on the Floor. • Start a crew, share the code, and see which friends picked each set. • Long-press any set for details and who's going. • Festival maps you can pinch and zoom, saved to your phone. • Fests works with no signal: your Grid, Floor, and Map load offline. • Save Day turns your plan into a Lock Screen image, or a FULL DAY picture of the whole day. • The sets you picked get logged to your record after each festival day. • Can't find your festival? Request it from the festival list. No ads, no feed, no algorithm deciding what you saw. Just your own record, built one show at a time.
