Does not let me Login

I used to use this app all the time until one day it asked me for authorization required on both the browser and my app on my iPhone. I was able to see the tab on my laptop browser, but on my iPhone app it doesn’t show the authorization tab so I’m no longer able to use planning center on my iPhone app. I reached out by email and no one has reached out to me.

Notifications are broken

Lately, whenever my team confirms or declines an invite, the app just says “Services Reminder”. It used to give me a notification that said “Charlie Brown has confirmed/declined June 7th request” etc etc. Why is it not doing that anymore? I shouldn’t have to go into my app to see who accepted or declined. Please fix.

Issues with the most recent update for 5/31/26

I keep getting prompts to update this app??? What is going on?

Constantly wants to update

App tries to update and then it keeps saying UPDATE and does it again. It’s done that at least 6 times so far today… (update posted for May 31). Think something wasn’t planned very well…😬

Solid app, INCREDIBLE team

App is totally usable and does absolutely everything I need it to and more. There is a small learning curve, but overall I find it to be user friendly, fairly navigable, and powerful as a management tool. There are some small quirks and occasionally it runs slow, but every update improves the app and everything you can do on the website you can also do on the app. I think the best thing about the app is the customer support team behind it. I contacted them about an issue I was experiencing, and within an hour they responded and within a week they rolled out an update fixing the issue. Absolutely stellar team and great app.
