What the developer promises

Another line from the listing: “From families and friends to schools and teams,”. The listing goes on to say “no matter who you gather with, BAND makes it easy to connect and stay together”. One more point the description makes: “See new posts from your groups right on your Home tab”. The description says: “Get instant push alerts for new announcements, schedules, or posts so you can jump in fast”.

In the developer’s words, “Receive instant notifications for new posts”. It also states that “Choose which groups you’d like to get alerts from”. Another line from the listing: “View and create events quickly right from your Home tab”. All of this comes from the store listing, so read it as the developer’s own pitch.

The downsides

The listing says it contains ads and offers in-app purchases, so expect to be asked for attention or money at some point. Also, one star ratings sit at 0.6%, a modest share, though that is still 5,100 people who were unhappy enough to say so. Check the screenshots and the most recent reviews on the Play page before you rely on it.
