Church Apps


Recommended Posts

Does anyone here attend a church that has its own Android/iphone app for its members? It the day and age that we live in, it seems more and more common that churches are using different forms of technology.

If your church has its own app,

  1. Do you find it beneficial/helpful?
  2. What size is the church?
  3. Did you stop printing paper bulletins and go digital?
  4. Did it increase the tithing/offering?

Our church has a WhatsApp group which is mainly for prayer requests.

That's definitely an option. I already started to develop one for our church members, should have it ready in a week or so. The reason I'm going with an app for us instead of chat software is  a few reasons.

  1. Online Giving option is right there when opening the app.
  2. I can send push notifications to members phones at any time.
  3. Church Directory Section
  4. Prayer Requests
  5. Upcoming Events
  6. Privacy. Certain pages requires login.

We'll see if this works for us.

Did it ever end up working for you @PastorMatt?

No it did not work for us. I found that using bulk text messages to communicate worked better for our church. Those 50 and up in our church had no desire to use or they just couldn't figure out technology to use the church app.
