All Versions of ServicePlanner

3.1.0

November 28, 2023

This is a reasonably big release with a number of changes related to the new reporting guidelines. ServicePlanner now allows you to optionally hide "hours" and show ticks on the monthly calendar and annual report, supporting the overall focus switch from counting time while still encouraging you to plan your ministry. ## New Features - Toggle a months reporting between "Shared in Ministry" or "Full Hours" mode using the new button next to Send Report. - Option to hide hours on the Activity Calendar and show a tick instead. Toggle this from the top/right menu option on the Activity screen. - Option to hide the Placements, Videos and RVs on the Activity screen. Otherwise they are greyed out but still visible for access to the detail screens. - You can set the default reporting mode in Settings > Reporting. Otherwise you can change it month-by-month, for example when auxiliary pioneering. ## Issues Fixed - Fixed issue with service year date range in some time zones. - Fixed issue with backup reminders. - Fixed the annual hours summary bar sometimes including carried minutes. - Fixed issue reporting credit hours vs max hours. - Further refinements to the Dropbox sync rules. - Fixed issue with Last Visit date not showing for TerritoryHelper locations (make sure to reload the maps). ## Other - You can now send your report via NW Publisher. - iOS 14 now required. --- I hope you are still enjoying ServicePlanner? If you are, please share your feedback on the App Store. Thanks for your support!

3.0

February 3, 2023

I am very pleased to announce version 3.0 of ServicePlanner. * There are now up to 5x "Other Hours" categories available - each with scheduling, reporting and timer support. * You can set a limit on other hour credits. Hours added over the maximum will reduce the reported amount. The current limit defaults to 75 hours, but you can change it at any time. * There is improved visibility for the different hour categories on both the Month and Year Activity Calendars. For example, you can easily see how many LDC or HLC hours you did. Click on a category in the Report section to show the related hours per day in the calendar. * It has been great to see how ones are using the daily notes inside the Activity Calendar. You can now assign a color to the daily note ... which then changes the color of that day in the calendar. There is a new Notes summary screen. And for those that submit notes with their Report, you can even specify the color notes to be included. * A new "Custom" Contact Type has been added ... and you can now rename the Contact Types in the Workflow Settings. * A new Visit Type "Secular" has been added. This allows you to record a visit with a contact that does not show in your report. * The Video and Publication screens have been simplified, with some features being removed. When a new user installs the app they will now have some default publications added by default - titles only. As before, users can add cover images and link to external content. * There is a new video category called "Bible Study". 4x generic video placeholders get users started reporting videos shown. * Improvements to the Dropbox Sync tooling. * Better support for Emoji in things like Tags, Contact Names, Saved Filters and more. Power Tip: Use Emoji in contact names to provide visual indicators about the person - gender, age, work, location, language etc. Also use Emoji at the start of your Tag names to keep them grouped together. * Home Screen quick actions have been enabled for all devices. Tap+hold on the ServicePlanner app icon to see the options. * ServicePlanner is now available in both Chinese Traditional and Simplified! * Contacts no longer require an address. There are new Contact Filter options. And you can add a Website URL against a Contact. * iOS 11 is now the minimum version supported. Overall there are too many UI improvements and feature enhancements to list here. Keep an eye on the website for a blog post that will go in-depth on what's new in version 3.0. --- Thank you for using ServicePlanner. If you feel inspired to write a review on the App Store it would be much appreciated.

Reviews of ServicePlanner

  • Fantastic for field service

    Great for busy people that appreciate planning and organization for their personal field ministry. Dropbox sync works good for iPad to iPhone, although the data doesn’t refresh if both apps are open at the same time, so I have to close one and then re-open to see the changes from the other device. Would love iCloud Drive, but understand from the developer Dropbox is the only option for now.

    Developer Response

    Thanks so much for the feedback! Just to clarify about the sync - it will work fine while the app is open on both devices. It doesn’t happen real time, you may need to wait up to 120 seconds max for changes to push from one device and be pulled onto the other. When you background or open the app it forces an immediate sync. Hope that clarifies things.
  • Cannot link territory helper

    When I heard about this app I thought it was amazing but when I downloaded it and tried to import my territory from territory helper, as I logged in it kicked me out. I tried to do it multiple times but I’m not able to import my territory at all.
  • Functional design 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Just the right balance between “bells & whistles” and the important elements required for planning and tracking our ministry.
    I especially use the Look Up Address feature. It is pretty good at suggesting a correct address and saves quite a lot of typing.
