Too slow

So far, the new integration of having everything you need in one app has potential, but app is far too slow and cumbersome. Going back out of documents or zooming in on things resets the view and puts you back on the Home Screen. So not very usually to do any sort of tasks right now for me until app load speed and bugs are worked out.

Hi there, we're sorry to hear your experience with the new app has not been amazing. Please reach out to support@planningcenter.com , and we would be happy to troubleshoot with you!

Good Responsiveness

Initially the app would crash on load. The PCO team did a great job of remedying the problem. The app works well!

It’s still buggy

App is functional, but has some bugs. Task lists default to sorting alphabetically without the ability to save sorting it by due date. Customization pretty minimal for a robust task list app.

Thank you for sharing with us! We would love to take a closer look with you. If you can, please email us at support@planningcenter.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

It’s still buggy

App is functional, but has some bugs. Adding tasks, you can’t put a due date because the calendar falls mostly below the iPhone screen. Task lists default to sorting alphabetically without the ability to save sorting it by due date. Customization pretty minimal for a robust task list app.

Terrible

It is almost impossible to use the Services portion of this App. It is like there are several windows that each scroll and it is extremely difficult to use. I moved back to just the Services App.

Response from developer

Hi Brotherlove1040, thank you for the feedback! We'd love to learn more about what you're experiencing in the Services section of the app. The more details you can share, the better we can help. Feel free to reach out at support@planningcenter.com so we can get that conversation started!

This is so convenient to finally have!

As someone who is constantly needing to run things on the back end of planning center across their different apps, it was such a pain in the butt to not have a mobile version that could do that. Before this, you’d have to go through a browser in order to access the back end of registrations, groups, and giving. And each of the other platforms like services, people, and check-ins had their own individual apps which was frustrating. Having everything together in one easy to use app is amazing🙏

We're thrilled to hear that our app has made managing various tasks more convenient for you. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

Excited to see where this goes

Hopefully integrating the other apps is a priority. Calendar is gone from the App Store I think? So this app has to be used for calendar. It’s not perfect; the web view has occasional scrolling issues. Hopefully it gets more native and smooth.

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review! We'd love to dive deeper into your experience, especially with Calendar. If you could email us at support@planningcenter.com with details on what would help improve your experience, we'd be happy to hear from you!

Love that they did this!

I’m so glad that they made this an option. I have basically been using planning center from my web browser on my phone to manage things that I couldn’t in the apps. And now I can do it all from this app. This is extremely helpful for me when using Check In and Registrations. Thank you Planning Center! You all are the BEST!!

Game changer!

The accessibility of every planning center product is an absolute game changer. I love how every workflow, task, and items that need my attention all show up in the same place!

The only thing that I feel like could add to it at this point is an integrated communication feature for task lists. Where we are able to communicate information regarding a specific task or project.

Still, such a Great Leap Forward and I’m excited to see how this continues to develop!

App Crashes Every Time I Load It

I am a seasoned Planning Center users, but this new app crashes on startup every time. I am happy to change this to a positive review if they can get it working.

Wow!

This is a huge improvement in functionality. I also love that I can now clear off all my other apps (People, Services, etc.) and access the same information in one place. Thanks so much, Planning Center!!

Response from developer

We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the new functionality and consolidated information! We'll make sure to pass your feedback along to the team.

Great App!!!

Nothing I would change.

Response from developer

HI Noah! Thank you for the positive feedback! We're glad to hear that you are enjoying the app just the way it is.

It’s a start

App is functional, but has some bugs. Editing descriptions in tasks, doesn’t save. Task lists default to sorting alphabetically without the ability to save sorting it by due date. Customization pretty minimal for a robust task list app.
