What's new

Dearest users (and readers of app release notes),

Since we first launched this app in June ‘11 (we know!), loads of you told us how much you love using Songkick to find out about concerts for your favorite artists, but also where it’s broken and what could work better. Today, we’re fixing some of the worst of those issues. Oh, and you can finally have concert dates fill the entirety of your swanky iPhone 5’s huge screens.

♬ New version requires iOS 5 or above. It can’t all be good news, can it?
♬ Full iPhone 5 and iOS 6 support.
♬ Making the music library scan a little less annoying by no longer forcing a scan every two weeks. You can still import your music any time from Settings.
♬ Music library scan ruined your hand-crafted, artisanal list of tracked artists? Remove unwanted artists with one swipe by tapping the "Edit" button on "Your artists" view.
♬ Buy tickets directly from Songkick! Get push notifications when tickets are available and buy them in the app.
♬ Purty new icon!
☂ Bug fixes (issues with logging in/out, accented characters, artist images that wouldn’t update, and more).

Thanks for using Songkick, we hope you ♥ this update. Keep the feedback and reviews coming, we read all of it!

Love,
the Soldiers of Songkick
