Every fangirl has a few key apps they couldn’t live without. But what if we had more to offer into the mix?
Of course, there’s Ticketmaster, X (formerly Twitter), an essential tool for keeping up with ‘stan Twitter’, and don’t forget your chosen streaming app, be it Spotify or Apple Music. But we believe there might be some additional tools and apps that you’re missing out on. So let’s elevate your fan experience with a helping hand from these six apps, all available across Apple and Android devices.
Twickets
We know, we’ve all been there, trying to find a resale ticket for a completely sold-out show. Whether it’s Olivia Rodrigo or Noah Kahan, don’t miss out by buying from scammers and download Twickets instead. Personally, I have used this on more than one occasion to buy tickets and they have always been legit! The great thing about Twickets is the buyer ‘Guarantee’ which will ensure you are reimbursed if your ticket turns out to be invalid, this is provided you use one of their methods of purchase. If a seller is asking you to pay outside of Twickets, by bank transfer for example, do NOT do it.
To make the most of this app, be sure to turn on those phone notifications! If you’re trying to track tickets for a certain artist, you can set up an alert within the app and as soon as someone lists a ticket for that event you will be notified by the app and by email.
Musicboard
Letterboxd but for music fans! Just like letterboxd, some people take the app very seriously but it’s also a fun way to keep track of new albums that you’ve listened to, your initial thoughts and ratings and make lists of your favourites. You can also read what other listeners think and discuss with them. Follow your friends and favourite reviewers and you might even find some new favourites.
Stats.fm
The latest trend on the music side of TikTok is to share your top artists and how many times you’ve been to see them (Here’s an example from @fireproofdanielle). But where are the creators finding their top artists? The app is called Stats.fm and once synced up to your Apple Music or Spotify, it will analyse your listening history to identify your top artists and songs. With the free download, you can see the last 4 weeks, 6 months and the past year, as well as connect with your friends and keep an eye on their stats.
A paid upgrade is available to see your full lifetime history plus other features such as finding your music ‘soulmate’.
Concert Archives
Ever worried that you’re annoying all of your non-music followers on Instagram by posting lots of concert videos to your story? Well, first of all, you shouldn’t be – they don’t have to watch it – but second of all, there is a place just for us concert addicts. Share your gig memories with those who will be genuinely interested with this app! For more on how it works, see our post all about it here.
Swift Alert
We couldn’t not mention it, after all, it’s the fangirl’s version of fantasy football. If you haven’t yet downloaded it, but are wondering where every swiftie is winning points for correctly guessing Taylor’s Eras Tour fits or surprise songs, it is here! The app is free to download, and you can join over 200 thousand Swifties every show competing for points. But do you win anything? Yes! There is the chance to win a prize if you get the most points for one show with previous prizes including signed albums and limited merch, so it is worth having a go and makes the Eras Tour FOMO a little easier to manage.
There is also a one-time purchase of £1.99 for some additional features such as stats of her most worn outfits or remaining surprise songs so you can improve your chances.
Setlist Concert for Setlist.fm
You know when you’ve got a concert coming up and you want to listen to the setlist but you also don’t want to sit there adding every single song to a playlist? This app does it for you. Choose the setlist you want and it’ll make the playlist which you can go ahead and export to your Apple Music or Spotify library. No more tedious playlist making and time to relive all of your favourite show’s setlists. I’ve tested it and just to note, if you’re making a playlist of any Eras Tour setlists, it sometimes adds non Taylor’s Version tracks so you’ll have to change this yourself once the playlist is in your library.
Of course, there are plenty of other apps out there to help you level-up your fan experience, but these were just a few we wanted to shine a light on. Are there any others that deserve a spot in every fangirl’s phone?
