What it does for a parish
Two halves: an app your parishioners use, and an admin site you run the parish from. Everything here works today.
For your parishioners, on iPhone and Android
- Find and join the parish. Search by name, city or priest, see the parish’s profile, and ask to join.
- The parish’s home page. Arranged by you, with the parish’s own links.
- Today in the Church. The day’s feast and its rank, the fast, the saints, and the readings with their full texts, following your parish’s old or new calendar and its tradition. Days already read stay readable offline.
- The parish calendar. Services and events by month, week or day, with calendars each member can hide.
- Groups. Messages and photos, replies, reactions, @mentions and @everyone, and read receipts. Each member sets how much each group notifies them, with push notifications.
- Safety. Obscene words are refused, any message can be reported, and anyone can be blocked.
For you, on the admin site
- Parish details. Address, jurisdiction, liturgical calendar, time zone, clergy and staff, and social links, with a prompt listing what is still missing.
- Members. Approve or deny join requests, here or in the app; add admins; remove members.
- Calendars. Several named, coloured calendars, repeating events, and the shared calendars every parish can subscribe to. Events can be edited from the phone too.
- Home page and tab bar. Arrange the app’s home page and up to two tab-bar links, with a live phone preview.
- Reported messages. Reports from your groups, reviewed by the parish’s admins.
Groups are run from the phone
Creating and moderating groups happens in the app, not on the admin site.
What it does not do
No ads. Nothing is sold. Members can delete their own accounts.
