Draft:B-cd app

BCD App (stylized b‑cd.app) is a fan-created web application and digital platform designed for the global fanbase of the South Korean boy band BTS, known as ARMY. The platform is fully BTS-themed, allowing fans to track streaming of BTS and individual BTS members’ songs, complete daily missions, play interactive games, earn BTS-themed digital photocards, and trade them with other fans. While widely used by ARMY, BCD App is not an official product of HYBE Corporation or Big Hit Music, but a community-developed project created by fans for fans.

Background

The BCD App originated from the BTS Chart Data (BCD) community, which began as an X (formerly Twitter) account compiling BTS streaming statistics, chart positions, and sales data. The app was created to provide a centralized platform for ARMY members to track BTS streams and participate in gamified fan engagement, all within a BTS-themed environment.

The platform is web-based and can be accessed via mobile or desktop browsers. Users can add it to their device home screens to use it like a mobile app.

Features

BTS Stream Tracking: BCD App only tracks streams of BTS songs and individual BTS members’ solo tracks. Users can link Last.fm or Stats.fm accounts so the app can automatically record verified streaming activity. This ensures that all streaming contributions count toward daily missions and photocard rewards.

Daily Missions

Users complete daily missions to engage with BTS content. Missions may include streaming specific BTS songs, completing interactive games, or other BTS-themed tasks. All missions are tracked in the user’s profile, showing progress and completed tasks.

Games

The app includes BTS-themed mini-games designed to make participation fun and interactive. Games may involve guessing songs, identifying pixelated video clips, or other BTS-related challenges. Playing games can also contribute toward photocard collection. Rewards and Photocards

Completing daily missions and playing games rewards digital BTS-themed photocards. Photocards represent BTS members, songs, or album concepts and are fully BTS-themed, making them collectible and appealing to fans. All earned photocards are stored in the user’s profile gallery, where progress can be tracked and collections viewed. Users can trade photocards with other users to complete their collections, encouraging community interaction and fan engagement. Some missions or special events may reward rare or limited-edition photocards, adding excitement and motivation for daily participation. Collecting and trading photocards allows fans to feel a tangible sense of achievement while supporting BTS through streaming and mission completion.

Community Forum

The app hosts a BTS-focused forum where ARMY members can discuss comebacks, mission strategies, and trading tips. Fans can suggest new BTS-themed missions, games, and rewards.
