What's New
Every update since launch. AI announcers, song-snippet SFX, player sharing, between-innings music, and more.
Your teams, on every device
Your Teams, on Every Device
Sign in and your teams come with you. Build a roster on your iPhone and it's waiting on another phone or the web the moment you sign in there, with no sharing step and no setup. Switch devices and everything is right where you left it.
Announcer variety, GameChanger import & more voices
Every At-Bat, a Little Different
Your announcer can now mix it up from batter to batter instead of reading the same line every time. Dial it Off, Subtle, or Hype for the whole team, or set it per player. Off keeps the classic call; Subtle and Hype are Pro.
Coming From GameChanger? Just Scan.
Creating a new team now reads GameChanger's "Share Starting Lineup" QR code directly. Point the scanner at it and your whole roster drops in, no retyping.
More Voices in the Booth
Ring Master, Game Show, Premier, Trail Sheriff, Mad Scientist, Disco MC, and Fortune Teller are all calling lineups again. The full Character Voices roster is back for your next player.
Shuffle the Order, Manage With Ease
Randomize your batting order with one tap, and the new Manage Players mode shows active, benched, and absent players in color at a glance. Easier to scan before first pitch.
Polish under the hood
Smoother every game
We're always tuning GameDay DJ behind the scenes. Small fixes, performance touch-ups, and refinements that keep game day fast, smooth, and reliable. Nothing new to learn; just a better experience every time your players step up to the plate.
Your imports, smarter scans & one-tap invites
Smarter Lineup Scanning
Scanning a lineup card now leads straight into the right place: if it's a team you already have, we reorder it; if it's brand new, we offer to create the team for you with the detected name, colorful jersey badges, and a clean roster preview. If a scan fails, the error stays on-page instead of popping a dialog. Try again without losing your spot.
Your Imported Audio, Front and Center
Audio you email in now shows up right in My Studio. Tap any file to hear it, free. When you're ready to set one as a player's intro for game day, that's where Pro kicks in. No more waiting just to see your own files.
One Tap to Invite Players
Right after Lock-In on a shared team, we'll quietly offer to text the join code to players. One tap opens a prefilled share sheet so they can claim their kid in seconds. Skip it and we won't ask again on that team.
Feel Every Moment
Tactile feedback now confirms the moments that matter. Tapping a player to play, finishing Lock-In, generating an intro, and the small "oops" of a quick error. Subtle, never noisy. Works alongside silent mode so the dugout never hears a thing.
Always-in-Sync + invisible Lock-In
Game Day Just Knows You're Ready
No more manual Lock-In ritual. Your intros and walk-up songs now cache to your phone automatically as you edit, and Game Day shows a simple green Ready when your team will play instantly, even with no signal at the field. Old audio keeps playing while new edits quietly sync in the background, so there's never dead air at the plate.
Always In Sync. No More Guessing
Sharing a team with a co-coach or players? The sync indicator is quieter and more honest now: invisible when everyone's in sync, and when you make an edit with no signal it calmly says "Offline, will sync" and catches everyone up the moment you're back online. No taps, no guessing which side is newer. Album art even shows in the booth offline on a brand-new setup.
Season Pass + one-tap sync
Season Pass. One Price For The Whole Season
New $19.99 Season Pass covers full Pro for ~6 months: unlimited teams, every announcer voice, custom AI sound effects, music mix, player sharing. No subscription, no auto-renew. Built for the coach who runs a season at a time.
Better Prices For Season-Long Coaches
Plus a few naming + pricing cleanups: 1-Week Pass → Tournament Pass (same price), Pro Annual → Coach Year-Round (now $39.99/yr, was $44.99). Same Pro, cheaper for the multi-sport coach.
One-Tap Team Sync
Sharing a team with a co-coach or players? The sync button on Game Day now does the whole round-trip in one tap. It pushes your edits and pulls everyone else's, so you never have to guess which side is newer.
A Way Bigger Youth & Family Mix
The Youth & Family music vibe just grew from 25 songs to over 150. Current pop, dance, throwbacks, line-dance staples, all clean and all-ages. Fresh enough to last a full season without sounding the same week after week.
Reliability & polish
Smoother Game Day
The announcer carries cleanly over the crowd outdoors, album art loads fast on a weak signal, and if your sign-in times out you're prompted to pick up right where you left off.
Lock Your Screen Orientation
Keep the screen from flipping mid-game. Turn on Lock Rotation and GameDay DJ stays put no matter how you hold your phone in the dugout.
Song-snippet sound effects
Drop the Song Everybody Knows
Your SFX board now ships with five famous hooks ready to fire. Walk It Out, Who Let the Dogs Out, Seven Nation Army, Whoomp! (There It Is), and Thunderstruck. Free for everyone, no setup.
Make Your Own Hook
Pro coaches can snip any song into a sound effect: search the track, drag the markers to land on the drop or the chant, and save it to your board next to the bundled ones.
Polish & reliability
Polish & Reliability
A cleaner lineup-scan screen (background fills edge to edge while scanning), plus steadier performance when a lot of coaches open the app at once. Small fixes for a smoother game day.
Last call for the final batter
Announce the Final Batter
For baseball and softball, GameDay DJ can now call the last batter of the inning, a stadium-style announcement that fires automatically right before their walk-up, or on demand with a tap.
Better Custom Sound Effects
Make your own SFX with any emoji as the icon, edit ones you've already created, and when you change the description the preview now regenerates to match. No more replaying the old take.
Never play a stale lineup
Never Play a Stale Lineup
Change a player or swap a walk-up song after you've Locked In? GameDay DJ slides up a re-lock prompt the moment something changes (on this device or from a co-coach's sync), so one tap re-stages everything. You're never caught playing yesterday's lineup mid-game.
Fresher mix, smarter Game Day, polish
Fresher Between-Innings Music
Today's Top and the genre stations now pull the songs actually charting right now, and the mix won't repeat a track for a long stretch, so a whole game stays fresh.
Smarter Game Day
Open any team and the leadoff batter is already cued up. Running two teams back-to-back? Each one remembers exactly who's up next when you switch between them.
Smoother Editing & Fixes
Every text field has Clear and Done buttons above the keyboard, regenerating an intro no longer talks over Music Mix, and dozens of reliability fixes across the app.
Two new badges + toolbar polish
Two New Badges to Earn
Sync Now lands the first time you force a shared team to sync on demand. Safe Keeping unlocks when you back up your whole team (rosters, photos, and recorded intros) to your Coach Account. Tap any badge tile to see how to earn it.
Cloud, sync, badges, invites, Live Mic polish
Cloud Backup, Now for Bigger Teams
Backup uploads now bypass the old size cap, so coaches with full rosters of player photos and player-recorded intros can save and restore everything in one shot. Pro feature.
Coaching Milestones
New tiered badges climb with you. Every lineup scanned, every Game Day run, every co-coach invited unlocks the next rung. Tap any badge tile to see exactly how to earn it.
Co-Coaches Stay in Sync
Pick a walk-up song and your co-coaches see it within minutes. Game Day pulls fresh roster + song changes in the background, and a status indicator shows the last sync time.
Invite Links That Land
When players or co-coaches tap your invite link, the landing page greets them by role and tells them the right next step. Links work for 7 days, reusable by anyone in the window.
Live Mic Stands Out
The Live Mic card now glows red, a distinct, attention-getting affordance separate from bundled sound effects. Talk through the speaker, push-to-talk or lock on. Pro feature.
SoundBoard grid, referrals & achievements
SoundBoard Grid View
Switch your Game Day lineup to a tappable grid, jersey + face + album art on every tile. Perfect for soccer goals, basketball baskets, hockey power plays. List view stays for batting-order sports.
Bluetooth Speaker Keepalive
Some Bluetooth speakers go to sleep between innings and clip the first note. A silent keepalive (or brief wake pulse every 20 seconds for stubborn speakers) keeps every intro playing from the very first beat.
Referral Bonus
Share GameDay DJ. When another coach upgrades to Pro you earn 30 free days (monthly) or 90 days (annual). Keeps your Pro going even if you pause.
Achievement Badges
Your personal trophy case. Unlock badges for firsts (first lineup, first AI voice, first Game Day, first Live Mic) and for milestones like inviting other coaches.
Popular Picks + Smart Snippets
A Popular tab in song search shows the most-picked walk-ups for your sport. Inside the snippet editor, "Use Popular Snippet" auto-fills the exact start time other coaches landed on (50+ votes).
Live Mic Safety Reminder
When you tap to go live on the PA mic, a quick confirmation reminds you to stand at least 6 feet from your speaker. The feedback loop is brutal if you don't.
Voice filters, calendar sync, per-game lineups
Your Voice, Transformed
Record a custom announcer intro and shape it with 13 effect filters. Deep Announcer, Giant, Villain, Chipmunk, Helium, Robot, Telephone, Old Radio, Megaphone and more. Same recording, completely different character.
Import from Your Calendar
Connect your league calendar and your game schedule syncs into the app. Opponent, time, and location already filled in. Home vs. away auto-detected from how the event is titled.
Per-Game Lineups
Tournament weekend? Set a different batting order for each game without touching the master roster. Drag players into place. Bench someone for the morning game, restore them for the afternoon.
Find the Perfect Hook
The snippet editor now plays the full walk-up experience. Music starts, fades for the announcement, voice fires, music comes back. Drag the markers to land on the drop. Vocal Boost or Music Boost lets you choose who leads.
Pronunciation Help
Names like Siobhan, Nguyen, Aoife, and Joaquin get flagged the moment you type them. One-tap Fix It fills in the phonetic spelling so the AI announcer nails it. 200+ names covered offline.
Scan Your Season Schedule
Snap a photo of your printed schedule or a tournament bracket and pull every game into your calendar. Multi-page bracket? Add pages and merge them into a single import.
Launch. What makes GameDay DJ different
AI Stadium Announcers
Real broadcast-grade announcer voices (Bilbop, Rex Thunder, Shanni, Titan) calling each player's name out by name. Or design your own voice with a sentence. Nobody else in this space does this.
Scan, Don't Type
Point your camera at any lineup card (printed, handwritten, GameChanger, iScore) and the roster imports in seconds. No more thumb-typing 14 kids on the bleachers.
Quick Vibe Mix
Tap a vibe (80s rock, country, hip-hop, hype) and we drop a curated walk-up onto every player in seconds. Tweak the ones you care about, leave the rest. First-game-ready in under a minute.
Share Your Team. Coaches AND Players
Invite a co-coach so editing isn't on one person's shoulders, OR invite players so they pick their own kid's walk-up song. One link, two roles, you choose.
Zero-Latency Playback
Tap Lock In once and every intro fires the instant your finger lifts. No spinners, no buffering, no dead air between batters. The crowd reacts to the music, not to you waiting on it.
Always Backed Up
Every team, roster, intro, and setting backs up the second you make a change. Switch phones or get a new iPad. Sign in with the same Apple ID, install GameDay DJ, and your setup follows you there.
