★★★★★
As a live performing musician for over 20 years, I was early to adopt technology and was the first of my musician friends to create a database for tracking songs with a tablet, but I've never seen anything like Band helper. The designer has really thought of everything a performing musician could possibly need. If you are a musican, you need this app. It's a little overwhelming and complicated at first but once you understand the possibilities, it's really incredible.

Essential for a new band. My daughter and I started gigging together this month and needed to learn 3 hours worth of cover songs in 6 days. This app was crucial for keeping our lyrics, chords, notes, and set lists together! Totally worth the small subscription cost! Thanks, Arlo!
★★☆☆☆
Useless garbage. Can't even enter my password. The app freaks out. Very poorly made
★★☆☆☆
"You must have an existing Band helper account to use this app." Immediate uninstallation.
★★☆☆☆
The app makes it impossible to add or edit lyrics. The colors never work like they should. Either they don't type out in the color I choose, or they do type out fine but once I hit save, they show up a bunch of different colors!
★★☆☆☆
These little tips keep popping up on my Android app I don't know how to make them go away. They make the app unusable for a live performance.
