Keep the music going — with a smoother HitTime

A backup to help the game continue

If the main music source cannot provide a song, the game can now try a backup. This reduces the risk of a session stopping because one source fails. Switching can take a little longer — thank you for your patience.

Bingo is about your musical memory again

Players spotted a pattern: the decade choices could reveal the correct answer without recognising the song. Fixed! We now randomly select the set of nearby decades, removing that predictable clue.

Notifications on your terms

Find Notifications in your account: personal invitations, new rooms from friends, public rooms and reminders before scheduled games. Choose public-room languages and quiet hours. New alert categories are off by default; delivery also needs permission on your device. Push notifications are not yet available in the iPhone test app.

Small fixes for a smoother game

We adjusted player names and avatars on phones and added space around the bottom controls so buttons no longer overlap. Your reports continue to guide improvements.
