Ratings and reviews

Works but hard to use period it cuts off the screen sometimes in the typing boxes

When it works it's alright. Unfortunately I've had the same experience as others where - after I've been using it for a few weeks - the app goes into some sort of loop when you open it, requiring me to uninstall & reinstall, which fixes it for a while.

Never had the crashing problem on my Android that other reviewers have had. Maybe that's fixed now? Seems like a handy little tool for a pastor to quickly access contact information. Definitely need to update the app to add the ability to filter Active and Inactive members, though. We have only a couple hundred Active members in our little church, but our entire 2,000+ member database shows up in the app. Good that they're accessible, but would be really nice to be able to filter the list!

What's new

We've updated the sign in screen and added a new way to sign in by linking your Google or Apple account to your existing Realm account.
