Record your temple attendance, set a yearly goal, and see your progress, all in a simple app that keeps your records private. iTemple makes recording a temple visit quick. Note the temple, the date, and the kind of work you did, add a private reflection if you wish, and iTemple shows your history in clear charts. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Set an annual attendance goal and see your progress at a glance • Record a visit in seconds: temple, date, and type of work (endowment, baptism, sealings, initiatory, or worker) • Mark a visit as a family visit or a group activity • Write a private reflection for any visit • Choose your usual temple as My Temple in Settings • Filter your history by type of work • See charts of how often you attend, which temples you attend most, and the kinds of work you do • Open a temple's official page or schedule from the Temple Schedules tab • Choose Light, Dark, or System appearance, and a temple photo for your Home screen PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your temple records are sacred, and iTemple treats them that way. Everything you record stays on your device. There is no account to create, no sign-up, and no tracking of any kind: no third-party analytics, no data collection, no ads. We never see your records, and neither does anyone else. The list of temples is loaded from TempleDB.org, so that part needs an internet connection. Your records are never sent. iTEMPLE GOLD Everything above is free. iTemple Gold is an optional one-time purchase, with no subscription, that adds: • iCloud Sync: keeps a copy of your visits in your own iCloud, synced across your Apple devices and never passing through our servers. Without it, your visits live in the app on this device, and deleting the app deletes them • Streaks and Milestones: follow your weekly attendance streak, with markers at 1, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 365 visits • Temple Bucket List: keep a list of temples you hope to visit someday. A temple moves to Achieved once you record a visit there • Export: save your visit history as a CSV or PDF file • Home Screen Widget: see your year-to-date visit count on your Home Screen SUPPORT THE PROJECT iTemple is free, with no account required. If it has been useful to you, optional tips in the app help keep it available and support continued updates. Tips are entirely optional and do not unlock anything. ABOUT VERSION 2.0 iTemple has been completely rebuilt for today's iPhone. If you used the earlier iTemple, the visits it kept on your device are added to your new history, and the earlier files are kept safely. Thank you for using iTemple.
