WeGather
Read full descriptionHide full description
WeGather holds the parts a life group keeps losing in a group chat: the schedule, who is coming, whose house it is, what to bring, and what to pray for. Set the rhythm once — weekly, every other week, monthly, or the pattern your group already keeps — and every meeting is there, with the address, the host and the headcount in one place. WHAT IT DOES • Households, not usernames. Reply once for the adults, the children and a guest. Children don't need accounts, and their names stay hidden unless your household chooses to show them. • Honest headcounts. Everyone sees who is coming, who is not, and who hasn't answered yet. • Host rotation. Members claim a date or a leader assigns one, and the address travels with the meeting. • Shared meals. Pick a theme, share the dishes, avoid three lasagnes, and keep allergies in front of whoever is cooking. • Prayer. Requests for the whole group or just the leaders, marked answered when they are. • Group chat, and a thread for each meeting, with photos and documents where they belong. • The Bible, offline. Three translations, and the passage for each meeting is a tap away. • Reminders before each meeting, for whoever is coming, hosting or bringing something. • Your calendar. Subscribe once and every meeting, change and cancellation follows. • One church, many groups. A church code links every group, and leaders see them all. BUILT FOR HOUSEHOLDS, PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your address is visible only to the groups you belong to. Children's names are counted, not shown, unless you say otherwise. No ads, ever, and nothing sold to anyone. PLANS Start with a free month — no card, no reminders to cancel. After that a plan is what keeps a group writing: chat, prayer, documents, meetings and replies. Without one, a group can still read everything it already has — nothing is deleted. One person can pay for a whole group, or a church for all of its groups. English, Portuguese and Spanish. Subscriptions WeGather Person — $0.99/month or $9.99/year WeGather Group — $4.99/month or $39.99/year WeGather Church — from $29.99/month Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Whirlpool at none against WeGather's 10. WeGather's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
