About

Church Register 3

Features
Read full description

Church Register 3 is a completely rewritten version of the Church Register app that takes advantage of Apple’s current and future devices! It also utilizes Apple’s latest framework for persisting user data, so this version should be my last full rewrite. This version includes an Average Sunday Attendance chart feature, so you can see the pattern of participation at a glance. In addition, this version allows the user to edit a saved record! The Church Register App is designed to track and record a congregation’s worship registry on your iPhone or iPad. I have had this app in my head since returning to coding many years ago, and this is the third generation.
