BAND - App for all groups App Reviews

I thought it was more of a group chat thing, but its like a themed tumblr. Its okay... I guess

Whenever Im bored on the train I usually like to go on this app and just browse all the groups. My favorite ones to check out are the funny/meme ones to get a quick laugh. Im also a gamer and they have lots of variety to meet other players on band. Ive met some cool peeps on here. So far the experience has been pretty good, nothing too buggy

This app has some of the greatest functionality ever; updates are often and always appreciated and the community which grew up surrounding this app is unparalleled. A must have for any public group, college club, or organization of any type!

This app is fantastic! Its user friendly and makes it easy to stay connected with friends! With all the different groups its easy to find one that fits you! I absolutely love it and would recommend to everyone!

Band has a great interface that makes it easy to keep up with different groups of people and their activity. Would definitely recommend this app to people who want to stay in touch with a group.

Absolutely love this app! Its ability to combine personal social sharing with close friends/family, and public silly posts with strangers is great. Ive suggested it to both coworkers and friends.

This app is very useful; however, they are trying to branch out into more social usage of the app, resulting in sending me dumb notifications like, "Ever had a bad breakup? Join I HATE MY EX!" I wish they would stick to a more mature approach, its turning off my band members. Also, itd be be cool if the calendar could sync to a gmail calendar somehow.

I run a clan for Destiny and this app is just what I was looking for. Everything is in one place: chat, scheduling session, announcement, poll, and upload photos. It has worked out pretty good. I gave 4 stars because of the stupid cartoon sticker (emotes)! Would have been 5 if not for them.

Hands down one of the most useful, intuitive, and entertaining apps Ive ever used. Its perfect for group messaging and has a great online community where Ive met awesome people and made great memories :)

Use it for all group things!

While Band works well as a group messaging app, it does so in a very unintuitive way. Menus are over complicated, when I open the app Im not instantly in my work chat, I instead have to tap on chat, than on the appropriate channel. Our company recently switched from GroupMe to this and I havent been that thrilled about it honestly. GroupMe was simple and effective, this is complicated and effective. Band reminds me of Samsungs failed attempt at making a group messenger ChatOn. Which is thankfully no longer in existence.

We use for gaming community. Works great for posting tips game strategy and keeping guild informed.

This is a shout out to the literal tens of people that use this for Celtic Heroes

My Destiny clan recently switch over from Line to Band to take advantage of the calendar for scheduling in game events and a bit more user management. Its been a great upgrade to our old methods. That being said, theres an extreme lack of free stickers. This is a small issue, but theyre really fun to have. Also, the latest release introduced a bug with chat lines wrapping in the middle of a word. Other than that Im enjoying the app. M

My Destiny clan (500+ members) use this as our main source of contact. There are two name fields so we use the second for console type which is very handy. Admins can delete or lockout features easily. Recent updates to allow message groups (chats) to be given names and icons is especially helpful. Photo albums and polls work very smoothly and the like/emoticon feature encourages positive communication. A few gripes: * The secondary tab for dedicated "chatrooms" is redundant since it shows up both places. * for larger groups, incessant wall posts can be a nuisance, so a lockout to admins only would be helpful * the recent update broke the text wrapping function in messages * anyone can, and often will attempt to, change storage settings for the entire band. This should also be locked out * a way to see most recent log on would be helpful for culling abandoned accounts

definitely useful for gaming communication but the words in messages get cut off when its in the next line. Please fix asap.

Hi, I am a multi 4-band user and contributor to various bands posting polls, and entertaining content and today I thought maybe Id write a review to point out a small add-on Id like to have to improve the experience of "POLLS". I believe, It would be a cool idea if there was an option to hide poll RESULTS. So that it only shows up to the individual who have already taken the poll, and those who havent voted yet cant see the results until they vote! Helps and makes it more fair since there are people who just look and judge then skip past it, or some people vote by seeing the majority voted and it is inaccurate, and decision conflicting. All in all the app is amazing and great! Hope the band community grows even richer in the future! Great work developers!!!

Ive been using this app for awhile but the recent update has the text in chats splitting the word and going onto the next line. Must be an issue with the code but its annoying trying to read texts in chats when the word goes halfway off the screen. Its an easy fix so please fix it.

Could you add an optional voice chat that admins of the group can toggle on or off. And the voice chat would always be open whether or not anyone was already in it.

It keeps crashing. Cant do anything now. So disappointed..
