App good, but a few problems
Jul 14, 2017 By bfchrisThe app works well, but the PCO system has a few problems, if you like more collaboration. The app has gained in features & abilities, and works well as designed. The Planning Center Online is set up with team leaders (e.g. a leader for musicians, a leader for audiovisual workers, etc.). When a team leader sends a notification or other communication, there is no way to reply within this app; I'm always looking for ways to keep communications organized, and email decluttered! I can't reply in this app, but must go to email. I'd love to have Ministry chats kept in this app. When a team leader seeks input from team members, that's not possible here; members are limited to Accepting assignments! If an unexpected event causes someone to need to cancel their prior acceptance of an assignment (PCO DOES allow that to be processed), there is no way to swap with someone else and have that swap show up in PCO. Support has recommended that we put the name of our substitute in the Reason for Declining field; the team leader will have to perform the actual swap, but that means Leader is aware of the swap. more -
Dec 2, 2020 By jonathan tejeraLove this app, lets me schedule, add songs and much more without having to go to the website. I think the music stand app is also great. I wish there was an option or sperate app for android auto and apple carplay to control the media player while driving. I listen to the songs for the week in the car and prefer to do everything on the screen of the car than on my phone. more -
Amazing, but....
Oct 26, 2017 By niemann4210Hey PCO. I love Planning Center and I love your app. Super intuitive and practical!! I use it almost as much as I use PCO on my computer. But I’ve been having a couple of problems lately. When I create a new person on the app and put their info in, it doesn’t save the info. I know this because after I create a new person and schedule them for an audition, I ask them to check their email for a PCO invite and they never get it until I redo creating them on the full-site version. Also, sometimes it crashes and it seems to always be at the worst time. I lead worship for The Point Church out the Raleigh area of NC. One thing we are asked to do is to be praying about things to say at certain points in the service. God will give me things to say at odd times and when I receive them, I like to write them in my notes on PCO immediately. I was doing that tonight and was almost done when the app crashed. This wasn’t the first time this happened, but tonight it was extremely frustrating. more -
10 seconds back, 30 forward
Mar 17, 2018 By SteveinGALove PCO. But (you just had to know that was comin’)... I like getting the piano parts right, and getting my fingers used to doing what the guy on the recording is playing. At present, I can take that itsy-bitsy white dot and move it backwards to hear “that part” again. Of course, there’s no real control, and I almost always move it way too far. It would be great to be able to rewind in 10- or 15-second bits, and be able to advance in 30 second bits. That way, I can practice those piano riffs over and over again. Also, would like to see an option to turn on or off sleep mode on the phone or tablet. I never (EVER) remember to turn off sleep mode on my phone. It could be put in as an option that we could set (Disengage Sleep Mode while using Planning Center). Just a couple of thoughts. more -
Oct 8, 2021 By Tamara HamSometimes there are internet and connection issues, but over all, we have been using this app for about 4 years and are pleased with it. Great for keeping the entire team on track, knowing what songs we're doing and who is playing what instrument, who's on vocals and able to schedule more than just a couple weeks at a time. Loading songs is not always convenient.... Sometimes we have to type them in by hand. more -
I love the new update but, somethings need to be fixed ASAP
May 13, 2019 By RALPHIE QHello, I use this app regularly, I even schedule people on this app. Most of the app runs just fine like I’m able to view plans, review the itinerary, times, etc. The thing that I hate the most is that when you make a change to your schedule on the computer it won’t register correctly in the app. For example let’s say I moved myself to another position and filled that position with somebody else, it will show that that person was requested but it will still say that I am confirmed for two positions when in reality I’m only confirmed for the one I moved to. (This glitch only happens on my iPhone because when I view the app on a Samsung device everything works perfectly) This isn’t just a glitch on my end however, my supervisor has the same problem along with many people in my church. You really need to fix this, because it’s confusing a lot of people as to who is and isn’t scheduled! Thank You! more -
Jul 31, 2021 By kiphaynes2 feature requests: 1. Make songs downloadable on Android 2. Add android cast ability. The media section of the order of service needs a massive UI redesign. It would be so nice it I could select the songs I want to practice and make a playlist from them. It is super difficult to be driving to rehearsal while attempting to play different songs from this app.. makes me wonder how many accidents have occurred while using PC. Update: request: make songs downloadable in Android. more -
Love it, but I would find an addition useful..
Aug 4, 2018 By nagromlbI love this app! It’s easy to use and understand. It’s definitely effective and helpful, particularly in receiving and responding to requests. The only thing that me and the rest of my team would love to see is the ability to view the notes that can only be created on the desktop site. They appear in a blue bubble with the number of comments posted. We prefer to post song info in there, but no one can see it on the app! The other two description or note options on both the app and website either make the plan look excessive and long or they stay with the song every time we use it in a plan, even though the details we put in will need to change every time. I like everything else about the app and will still continue to use it regularly! more -
Doubled up or ghosts names
Sep 8, 2020 By LV WarriorI love this app. We use it in our church constantly and it really helps to keep everyone on track with schedules and songs etc. However, many times it shows people on the services schedule who had been deleted previously from the schedule or it doubles up names, and every single time, the only way I get it fixed is by deleting and redownloading the app because when I hit the name to remove it, the “oops error” message pops up and takes me back to the schedule. Please fix this bug or let me know how to get rid of it without having to delete and redownload. Thank you for this wonderful tool. more -
Seriously, if you use Planning Center, use this app.
Jul 11, 2017 By beelee1113For any tech company to promise weekly update releases across their products is ambitious and crazy enough. For a company to actually deliver, and without frustrating customers with unnecessary or ill-communicated changes? That's Planning Center. If you plan any type of service or event, religious or otherwise, that requires the coordination of multiple people, teams, media, notes, and timing, then this is the app you're looking for. Constantly making incremental improvements and listening to users for feedback, this app (and company) should be the standard to strive for. Their Support is second to none, and I've never had an issue they couldn't resolve. I've been using the app since version 1, and it just keeps getting better. I appreciate that it's not just a port of the web app, but that it's device-conscious, and adjusts to fit the screen size it's given to work within. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Also, who writes the update notes? Seriously? I laugh every time. Thank you for caring about every little detail. more

Dec 8, 2020 By JD OrozcoLike many reviews here, I too have had problems with loging into planning center using my older android tablet since around October. It just gives me an error screen and asks me to check my internet connection, which is just fine. Prior to that, never had any problems but can no longer use music stand, which I LOVED using! My wife can log in just fine on her newer phone. Has my technology just aged out. I wish we could access previous versions of the app that were backwards compatable. more -
Great service, lackluster app
Apr 3, 2022 By coolboy2501I love planning center, but I’ve grown to hate the app. The interface is inconsistent, with different (mismatched) themes across different parts of the app. There are many annoying alerts that the app could go without having, too. User experience is fine, in theory (more in the paragraph below). Straight forward with obvious buttons and menus. The big issue comes with all the bugs in this app. I do not remember a time I scheduled a Sunday Service without the app giving me some pesky bug. I’m convinced the developers or project managers do not test the app, because very common operations are inconsistent or require restarting the app before registering changes. Some operations cause the app to crash all together. None of this is present on the desktop interface. All the small bugs add up to frustration when trying to make even small changes to a schedule. I thought my app was out of date, because I downloaded it so long ago and mostly use the desktop browser version, but it’s the latest version. I hope this app is tested thoroughly, like it should have been in the first place, and all these bugs are fixed. more -
Oct 18, 2019 By A Google userMy review is based on the recent update. I can no longer view the profile of anyone who isn't assigned to the same team as me. This is an inconvenient redesign and an unnecessary restriction as there may be times where a vocalist might need to contact a band member or any one else on a different team, or vice versa. This actually decreases the functionality of this app by prohibiting interaction between people assigned to different teams who work together. more -
Oct 1, 2020 By Jennifer ReyesThis app was awesome and did everything we needed as a worship team, but now its not working at all. It wont allow some of our team to sign in, we cant look up our songs in the song list and our worship leader cant post songs or do anything on it. Im not sure what has changed but it has been horrible since. We have been using it for a little over 5 years and this is the first time we are going into Sunday service not having our music avalible to practice. more -
Why can’t I use this to modify plans and create new ones?
Nov 18, 2018 By JayMccutchenThis should be called “Planning Center Services Companion” app. If you are simply using it to look at your scheduled plans, it’s passable. Although the UI is a bit perplexing with many dead ends (back buttons anyone?) it does the job more or less if u are needing to a hand in practice, but that’s about it. That’s being said, I don’t think modern people want to use just a portion of a service in an app. I don’t understand why I can’t use this to even ADD a person to a plan. As a leader it’s a real pain if, say I forget to add a person, and then I want to give them access to set on stage and I have to grab my laptop. Of maybe I wanna just review future plans on the fly I haven’t been scheduled on but I MADE BECAUSE I’M THE ADMIN and I can’t do it. Just annoying. I want a uniform experience. more -
Jul 29, 2022 By Josh PietzckerThis whole program used to be much better. The newest updates are not user friendly when creating templates or scheduling teams. This is the most frustrating digression of updates I've experienced and hope to move to a different program very soon. more -
Jul 7, 2022 By Robert KennedyGo to reset password. sends email link, open emails to get the code, go back to planning centre, can't enter code as it's gone back to the beginning. Can never actually log in. Absolutely pointless Kept trying and still no luck actually logging in. The password reset process is a farce. Won't be using the app and sorted another way to communicate with my church team leader more -
May 5, 2022 By Malissa van der waltIt's a great app. I can see what songs we are going to use for the service, but my app has no audio available for any songs? If you could please assist. I have the 5.8.15 version. -
Has a few problems
Dec 8, 2019 By Chad HtownFirst off love planning center on the mac not may problems there. This app on the other hand has given me some fits. Randomly changes keys. A lot of the time doesn’t recognize some of my musicians have notifications prepared so I will have to exit the app multiple times or have to click prepare notification on and off multiple times. I also have had issues with it taking a while to add a song in planning center. I get the loading icon for a while and end up having to exit the app. Love the concept just needs bug fixes. Please fix these issues. It hurts the purpose and convenience of the app. Also would love for it to have the option of adding and transposing MP3s on the app. Thanks! more

Aug 30, 2020 By Pete TumasHard to navigate within the App. Developers take you on a FRUITLESS journey. They're convinced their way is the right way. Intransigent malarkey! It's getting better, but every 6 months or so, something else comes up, and I dread getting the Support staff up to date so often! I dont have the time to play their games.

Update! This app and tech support is awesome!
Nov 21, 2019 By PoppaZenoHey I love this app it’s great but now that I’ve moved to a new church I’m unable to remove myself from my old church worship team. I think it’s the reason I can’t accept requests from my new worship team. Error says “this request is no longer valid”. Otherwise I’d give 5 stars. Update! Tech support was super helpful and the fix was super easy, and I figured out I can have multiple logins under the same email for every church I serve with apparently. Tech support figured it out for me and responded to me within minutes, although they say they’ll respond within an hour during business hours. Thanks God bless. more -
My favorite app ever!!🎵🎶
Jan 26, 2020 By Ayley-Hay🐶Love this app- so useful, you did a great job with it. But it would be really nice if you could play the music from the chord charts you’re looking at. Music Stand has that feature, where you can play the same music as the lead sheets or chord charts if you touch the screen and push play above, but in Services, you have to start the song in the Media Player, and then quickly exit out of the and go to Files, where the chord charts are attached. I think it would be really great if you could play the music from Files. Other than that, I don’t have any other suggestions or complaints! :) more -

App (used to crash) every time I enter blockout dates
Jan 28, 2020 By Kate pharmdIt’s almost like they’re shaming me for blocking out dates and not being able to serve! But seriously, the last two updates have not resolved this crashing and closing of the app when blockout dates are entered. Which adds more stress to try and find a way to communicate that we will not be available. Please fix this! *** Problem solved! Thank you to Matt, for kindly responding and suggesting to delete the app and re-download it. I can blockout dates for both my husband and I, no issues!! So anyone having the app crash, delete it and re-download it! more -
Apr 6, 2022 By Nocturnal VisionI've never used the app but I use Planning Center for confirming when I will play keys at church on Sundays. Really simple service to use 😇 only thing I'd request is for the custom confirm dates to show all your past confirmations as I love looking back on them but that's more personal preference 😊💗 more

Support has recommended that we put the name of our substitute in the Reason for Declining field; the team leader will have to perform the actual swap, but that means Leader is aware of the swap. more -
10 seconds back, 30 forward
Mar 17, 2018 By SteveinGALove PCO. But (you just had to know that was comin’)... I like getting the piano parts right, and getting my fingers used to doing what the guy on the recording is playing. At present, I can take that itsy-bitsy white dot and move it backwards to hear “that part” again. Of course, there’s no real control, and I almost always move it way too far. It would be great to be able to rewind in 10- or 15-second bits, and be able to advance in 30 second bits. That way, I can practice those piano riffs over and over again. Also, would like to see an option to turn on or off sleep mode on the phone or tablet. I never (EVER) remember to turn off sleep mode on my phone. It could be put in as an option that we could set (Disengage Sleep Mode while using Planning Center). Just a couple of thoughts. more -

Oct 18, 2018 By A Google userThis is a great app. Have been using it for several years with church music. Easy to use and manipulate for the devices I have. I recently bought a new computer and downloaded the Planning Center app. No problem with that. The problem I do have is with the Music Stand app. I have a Dell computer and have not been able to pull up my music. The Music Stand app shows downloaded on present devices, but does not allow or will not show up on my newest device. Any help would be appreciated. Will easily change 4 stars to 5 if this can be accomplished. more -
Great app minor issues
Feb 27, 2022 By CerebritoHave been using this app for at least 6yrs. It has made great new upgrades and fixes over the years that I greatly appreciate. Keep them updates coming! There is one problem currently that I have been dealing with this app. Definitely not a deal breaker but hoping there will be a fix soon. I don’t know when it started but noticed it about a month ago. The times on the mobile app doesn’t match the time set up using the desktop website. It is always off by 2hrs despite being correct via desktop website. Example: I have service set for 9am but on the app is starts at 11am. more -
Sep 20, 2020 By David BenjaminGreat app, takes a bit to get used to the location of needed items. Also is the only app that doesn't have a visible app or icon on my OnePlus 7 pro. I suspect it's a bug. Uninstall, reinstall doesn't work to fix it. I have to launch it from the Play Store. Please fix! more -
Incredibly professional app!
Oct 19, 2017 By James P. SullivanI have been using this from a scheduler’s side for a couple of months now and it is really professionally done. It makes me look like I spend a lot more time than I do when it comes to scheduling teams. It does lack some features that are in the full website version, but it works really well for most purposes. I’m not going to make major changes to a plan from this app, but it’s great for making the more common plan and scheduling changes (this was the only reason I had for giving it 4 instead of 5). It’s always handy to be able to carry around the weekly service plans in my pocket. Thanks for a great app and platform! more -
Love! BUT....
Aug 25, 2019 By RMJM*This app has truly changed our teams for the better and has helped us grow in our organization and planning. Can’t say enough good things about this app if you haven’t tried a tool to get you services organized, this is it! The next few things are just a few suggestions I’d like to see available for the app as they are for the desktop version. I would love to be able to access the matrix view on my iPad when planing services. I would also like to see an improvement for uploading files because I have to try a couple times before it fully uploads. Sometimes it starts to upload and then it will crash. more -
Almost great
Oct 19, 2017 By craigspoffordSometimes the volunteer leaders at my church send updates to set lists at hours I’m not in the office so I turn to the app to make changes. Being able to easily add a link in the app would be helpful, because I need to do this in our team’s process. I have to turn to Safari browser which is less than appealing on a mobile device. I also sometimes still have times when a service shows “needs” we don’t have. We’re just not that needy! (Yes, I love your update fixes). Those don’t show up on the web browser. I’d give a high five if imbedding links could work! more

I love the new update but, somethings need to be fixed ASAP
May 13, 2019 By RALPHIE QHello, I use this app regularly, I even schedule people on this app. Most of the app runs just fine like I’m able to view plans, review the itinerary, times, etc. The thing that I hate the most is that when you make a change to your schedule on the computer it won’t register correctly in the app. For example let’s say I moved myself to another position and filled that position with somebody else, it will show that that person was requested but it will still say that I am confirmed for two positions when in reality I’m only confirmed for the one I moved to. (This glitch only happens on my iPhone because when I view the app on a Samsung device everything works perfectly) This isn’t just a glitch on my end however, my supervisor has the same problem along with many people in my church. You really need to fix this, because it’s confusing a lot of people as to who is and isn’t scheduled! Thank You! more -
Jul 31, 2021 By kiphaynes2 feature requests: 1. Make songs downloadable on Android 2. Add android cast ability. The media section of the order of service needs a massive UI redesign. It would be so nice it I could select the songs I want to practice and make a playlist from them. It is super difficult to be driving to rehearsal while attempting to play different songs from this app.. makes me wonder how many accidents have occurred while using PC. Update: request: make songs downloadable in Android. more -
Jul 21, 2019 By A Google userI usually LOVE this app, but have been having trouble lately, and I'm not sure if it's just my new phone or a bug in the app. I have my entire family set as Saved Logins on my phone so that I can check their schedules as needed, however, when I try to used a Saved Login, it won't log in. It will just keep buffering until I back out of the app. Then, when I go back in, it puts me back into the last login that I was in and says there was an error logging out. Help! more -
Decent Software
Aug 30, 2019 By JB RunsWe use Planning Center for our scheduling and check-in for church. It’s a very capable software but can be a little clunky or challenging at times. The services app is helpful for viewing what is going on but not for and diction all scheduling or other more involved activities. You will need a computer to do anything beyond checking your schedule or making minor changes to a current schedule. Not bad overall not great either. When I have run into concerns our internal administrators typically help quickly, but when further help is needed the Planning Center Tech Support has not been the most responsive. They are friendly and helpful but I have waited multiple days when they boast a 24hr response time. A little disappointing from the support side. more -
The app works…
Jul 28, 2022 By itsaileeen01I’ve been using this app for quite some time now. Maybe like 2 years and I’ve just had one problem. I can’t add a profile picture. I’m fine with not having one but I just keep trying and trying and hoping that maybe it decides to load and actually update. Every time I try to add one it just shows that it’s loading and loading and when I press update it loads a little more and then when I check my account again, I just have my initials as a picture. I’ve went to the advanced settings and checked on errors and it just says “error unidentified” or something like that. Other than that, this app does work very good. more -
Feb 25, 2021 By Hwang Kay SiangThis is a good and useful app such as the syncing of scheduling to the phone's calender function. On the other hand, scheduling others using the desktop site has never been an issue but that cannot be said when using the phone app. Not sure why but the app just does not load to the next page after I have selected the person's name. I have checked that my app is updated to the latest version and even re-installing it, but it does not seem to solve the issue still. Kindly advise please, thank you more -
Sep 7, 2020 By Shea-Leigh ScheppelUsed to work so well, but I've been struggling for the past 3 weeks. I'd receive an error message saying if it persists I should log out and back in again, did it multiple times and still received the error message. Nothing I was scheduled for showed up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled countless times and still nothing. All I get now is a blank screen. Phone has been updated as well. more -
This Doesn’t Make Sense
Jun 9, 2020 By AnnieVanel07232002I used to be able to see others information they put out, now I can only see who’s in my team. It won’t let me access a file in the right key. We changed one from a G to an A, and we had to completely change our sight and print the new key, which was still the wrong lyrics. I haven’t been able to get in touch with someone on a different team. I am Audio and Visual, They are on Vocals. There have been times I needed to send her a message asking for help, but it won’t let me see. I also can’t use filters, other than my teams. I have all these things I put my information in, so others can see, now, they can’t see it, nor can I. more

Oct 1, 2020 By Jennifer ReyesThis app was awesome and did everything we needed as a worship team, but now its not working at all. It wont allow some of our team to sign in, we cant look up our songs in the song list and our worship leader cant post songs or do anything on it. Im not sure what has changed but it has been horrible since. We have been using it for a little over 5 years and this is the first time we are going into Sunday service not having our music avalible to practice. more -
Why can’t I use this to modify plans and create new ones?
Nov 18, 2018 By JayMccutchenThis should be called “Planning Center Services Companion” app. If you are simply using it to look at your scheduled plans, it’s passable. Although the UI is a bit perplexing with many dead ends (back buttons anyone?) it does the job more or less if u are needing to a hand in practice, but that’s about it. That’s being said, I don’t think modern people want to use just a portion of a service in an app. I don’t understand why I can’t use this to even ADD a person to a plan. As a leader it’s a real pain if, say I forget to add a person, and then I want to give them access to set on stage and I have to grab my laptop. Of maybe I wanna just review future plans on the fly I haven’t been scheduled on but I MADE BECAUSE I’M THE ADMIN and I can’t do it. Just annoying. I want a uniform experience. more -
Jul 29, 2022 By Josh PietzckerThis whole program used to be much better. The newest updates are not user friendly when creating templates or scheduling teams. This is the most frustrating digression of updates I've experienced and hope to move to a different program very soon. more -
May 5, 2022 By Malissa van der waltIt's a great app. I can see what songs we are going to use for the service, but my app has no audio available for any songs? If you could please assist. I have the 5.8.15 version. -
Has a few problems
Dec 8, 2019 By Chad HtownFirst off love planning center on the mac not may problems there. This app on the other hand has given me some fits. Randomly changes keys. A lot of the time doesn’t recognize some of my musicians have notifications prepared so I will have to exit the app multiple times or have to click prepare notification on and off multiple times. I also have had issues with it taking a while to add a song in planning center. I get the loading icon for a while and end up having to exit the app. Love the concept just needs bug fixes. Please fix these issues. It hurts the purpose and convenience of the app. Also would love for it to have the option of adding and transposing MP3s on the app. Thanks! more

Dec 8, 2020 By JD OrozcoLike many reviews here, I too have had problems with loging into planning center using my older android tablet since around October. It just gives me an error screen and asks me to check my internet connection, which is just fine. Prior to that, never had any problems but can no longer use music stand, which I LOVED using! My wife can log in just fine on her newer phone. Has my technology just aged out. I wish we could access previous versions of the app that were backwards compatable. more -
Great service, lackluster app
Apr 3, 2022 By coolboy2501I love planning center, but I’ve grown to hate the app. The interface is inconsistent, with different (mismatched) themes across different parts of the app. There are many annoying alerts that the app could go without having, too. User experience is fine, in theory (more in the paragraph below). Straight forward with obvious buttons and menus. The big issue comes with all the bugs in this app. I do not remember a time I scheduled a Sunday Service without the app giving me some pesky bug. I’m convinced the developers or project managers do not test the app, because very common operations are inconsistent or require restarting the app before registering changes. Some operations cause the app to crash all together. None of this is present on the desktop interface. All the small bugs add up to frustration when trying to make even small changes to a schedule. I thought my app was out of date, because I downloaded it so long ago and mostly use the desktop browser version, but it’s the latest version. I hope this app is tested thoroughly, like it should have been in the first place, and all these bugs are fixed. more -
Oct 18, 2019 By A Google userMy review is based on the recent update. I can no longer view the profile of anyone who isn't assigned to the same team as me. This is an inconvenient redesign and an unnecessary restriction as there may be times where a vocalist might need to contact a band member or any one else on a different team, or vice versa. This actually decreases the functionality of this app by prohibiting interaction between people assigned to different teams who work together. more -
Jul 7, 2022 By Robert KennedyGo to reset password. sends email link, open emails to get the code, go back to planning centre, can't enter code as it's gone back to the beginning. Can never actually log in. Absolutely pointless Kept trying and still no luck actually logging in. The password reset process is a farce. Won't be using the app and sorted another way to communicate with my church team leader more

NOTHING NEW, SIMPLY IMPROVED
• Times were displaying incorrectly when adding a plan with a template. We procrastinated this as the last of our fixes, but it was only a matter of time.
• Item Details are at the original font size and much easier to read.
We never meant to make you squint to read the fine print.
• The app won't lock up any longer when you return to the Media Player from watching your linked YouTube video. I guess freeze frames are contagious.
• Corrects a display issue where the Songs tab would show duplicate songs. We mistakenly thought this was a “you asked for one mile, we’ll go with you two” situation.
• Filtering from the Songs page on iPad doesn’t move the filters to the left side of the screen. And all was right with the world.
• The team assignment and lyric & chord screen headers were being covered by the notch on newer iPhones. You could say that dis-chord was among our teams but we managed to take it down a notch.

New in 5.6.3
The tree and the lights have been put away
We've bid our farewell to the holiday.
While you've cleaned up mistletoe, holly, and ivy
This update is here to make Services tidy.
Improved
• The Email button was missing from the People tab for some leaders. It was a real pain in the button.
• People and Song filters could not be closed in iPad split view. Funny timing though, as everything else seems to be closed. :|

• Like the finishing touches on your Christmas decorations, the People tab and filter have some new ornamentation!
Improvements
• Improves Photo uploads for profiles
• Fixes a bug for devices with iOS 12 and older, and adding new Songs in a filtered list was missing the "Done" checkmark

Version 5.3.2
Just some more bug fixes.
• Your Note columns will stop disappearing on you when you leave and return to the app. We always test for bugs, but when they’re invisible, it’s hard to column as we see ’em.
• Improvements to privacy and security. It's pretty safe to say writing a pun for this one would be irresponsible.
***
Notes from 5.3.1, in case you're having fomo of our last bug-fix update
• The filter button on the new songs page is no longer invisible on iOS 11. We thought the new design was picture perfect, but we shouldn't have added #nofilter.
• When adding a new song, imported charts will be in the key you choose. The default key was always G, which left you with uncharted C's.
• You are no longer automatically excluded when you send a message. In these isolating times, accepting a scheduling request from yourself is a perfectly normal coping mechanism.
