Chart tracking is a feature that monitors your music charts for changes in the background. It uses iOS notifications to keep you updated on changes in your tracked charts. The frequency of updates is managed by iOS based on how often you use the app - regular app usage ensures more timely tracking updates. To maintain consistent tracking, it's recommended to open the app periodically.

The badge number on the app icon shows the number of tracks you have scrobbled since you last opened the app. This helps you keep track of your listening activity even when not actively using the app.

To play music directly from bijou.fm, first connect either Spotify Premium or Apple Music in the Settings. Once connected, you can long-press any track, album, or artist in the lists to play them through your connected music service.
