We had feedback from multiple users who were all asking for the same thing:

Let us send the link to our music however we choose!!

What does that mean? Well, now when you create a songbox we just give you the link to it, and you can send it out to whoever you want, by any channel you want. This gives you the ability to personalise the message completely to your tastes. Obviously all the reporting works exactly the same!

Nothing you’ll notice but today we upgraded our database infrastructure to utilise separate read and write databases. We also migrated to Google Cloud for better availability and robustness.

Some SongBox users were loading 20 to 30 audio files into a single page load and this was killing our servers. We now paginate your SongBoxes which means you can have as many audio files as you like, but we only display 4 at a time.

We’ve now switched over 100% of our asset storage (images and audio files) to our new workflow. This means that the experience is a whole lot nicer and you now get a lovely image cropper to make sure your profile pictures are just perfect.

If you already had a profile picture uploaded we’re afraid you’ll need to re-upload… sorry :-)

As of today (24th November 2018) you will be able to see a new reporting dashboard that shows data on how long people are listening to your tracks before leaving.

In response to customer feedback, we’ve built a new player widget that visualises the waveform of your audio. This is definitely a pretty cool addition and we really hope you like it!

We’ve invested in a new user journey for uploading your tracks. We’re confident the new process is much more robust and user friendly. Please let us know what you think.
