Band Central for Android 4.1
September 2026
- Keep text size on this device: in Settings, Display, turn it on and that device keeps one text size of its own for every song, whatever your other devices are set to. Off by default, so nothing changes unless you choose it.
- Metronome accent patterns: set which beats in the bar are accented instead of just the first, and choose a different click sound per song, saved with the song.
- Share songs to another band, several at a time: pick as many as you like from the catalogue and send them in one go. Songs that cannot be copied are reported by name and stay selected, and cancelling part way through keeps what already copied.
- Band owners now see a banner when files are still on the device they came from, offering to move them into Band Central Storage, with a count of how many are waiting.
- Setlists show three lines per row, matching the iPad app, and breaks show their own length under the running set time.
- A new break now starts at 10 minutes, editing a break no longer rewrites its length, and breaks are no longer given a song number.
- The subscription screen now explains Band Central Storage and shows how much each plan includes.
- Use new lyric view is no longer marked as a preview, and two old pinch-and-zoom settings have been removed. They applied only to the classic view, did not work on many devices, and hid the Text Size control when switched on.
- Fixed bold, italic and underline in Format Lyrics doing nothing. Underline in particular was worked out correctly and then never drawn.
- Fixed per-song lyric formatting disappearing when it had been set on another platform.
- Fixed the song list and setlist list quietly going out of date. After leaving the screen once they stopped receiving updates until the app was force closed.
- Fixed adding the wrong songs to a setlist: searching while picking songs could silently move your selection onto different songs.
- Fixed sharing a song to another band marking every copied lyric version as the default.
- Fixed turning the chord grid off on the website not turning it off on a lyric already open.
- Fixed setlists showing no song count after a Setlist Helper import, and break lengths disagreeing between platforms.
- Fixed a file becoming unreachable if it was removed while its attachment was still being cleaned up.
- Fixed the footer, the song navigation bar and setlist break rows glowing white on the dark themes.
- Fixed a crash when the song list loaded immediately after signing in, and a crash when the lyric editor was opened without a song.
