Too many changes recently

I’ve noticed a lot of changes with this app recently. The verse cards disappeared, the crusades are gone, and I have to have an X account to connect with my church? No, I don’t think so. I have enjoyed the lessons and quizzes, but enforcing an additional app to connect with people is not a good choice.

Fun but missing verse cards

I love using this app daily. I have been enjoying the new features of being able to pray for people and and prayers. I’m starting to enjoy the Crusades more as well as the tournaments, but I am missing the verse cards. I enjoyed collecting them every morning when I open the app.
