Ratings and reviews

This app is well organized, and you get an well idea of other musicians instruments, skill level, projects they're/were in, what genres they play. The honest only downside is that it needs more people which isn't the fault of this app. Where as other social media like this is very disorganized. BandFriend is great for scouting talent for a band, making new jam buddies, and/or find a good teacher is your new to an instrument or music in general.

At the moment needs work. I can see this being a good app eventually. Right now if you search for musicians by location there's no filter between them and if you search by instrument it only does a search in your location which means you have to go to the city you are looking to find a musician in unless I'm missing something.

This is a nifty little app. I like how you can link your social accounts up to it and I love the private chat feature. I would suggest that all buttons are labelled with text though. I'm blind so use a screen reader to navigate apps. Screen readers don't get on with unlabelled buttons or ones with just a graphic on them. I had a couple of issues when I first started with Band Friend, but they were sorted double quick. Great service. Thankyou.
