2/5Why is it so slow?
So the app is really great and useful for planning and scheduling church serve times. My main complaint or I should say two complaints are: #1 Why is it so slow? It takes forever for the app to load and then if you switch to a different section, it takes forever again. I don’t understand! I thought maybe it was the Wi-Fi at our church because it can be a little sketchy, but I have gig Wi-Fi at home and it is still ridiculously slow. #2 Navigating the app is a little cumbersome. It is not well organized and it is not clear where to find things. I wish that there was a menu bar with drop-down categories at the top that just had every section of the app listed so that you didn’t have to click through all of these slow links to try to find what you’re looking for. Why isn’t there a drop down menu? That’s pretty standard in almost every other app that I use. Fix the speed that the app loads at and also fix the user interface/experience and this would be a rocketship for church planning.

1/5Id give zero stars if I could
Ok, I downloaded this app to help with my church and I open it to find I can’t create an account in app I HAVE to do it on the website so I do and no matter what I do, I CANNOT create a working account, none of them work! I’ve tried two different emails and neither worked! Then I went to the website to make an account and it worked so I open the app and it’s saying my account doesn’t exist! I try on another device with the app and again it doesn’t exist! I add my phone number to my account and still it won’t work! So I go ahead and make a new account with a different email and again not even that works! I try with three different devices this time! It just keeps saying the account does not exist! Then I try a website that I think ‘parents’ this apps website to supposedly make it work better and my account doesn’t exist on there so I decide to just make ANOTHER new account with one of my emails and I CANT CAUSE THE SIGN UP BUTTON TAKES ME TO A PURCHASING PAGE! I have to start a trial and later PAY MONEY to have an account CAUSE THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO CREATE AN ACCOUNT ON YOUR WEBSITES! NONE! fix your broken website and don’t get me STARTED on the interface and accessibility, it was a NIGHTMARE to work with!

4/5App good, but a few problems
The app works well, but the PCO system has a few problems, if you like more collaboration. The app has gained in features & abilities, and works well as designed. The Planning Center Online is set up with team leaders (e.g. a leader for musicians, a leader for audiovisual workers, etc.). When a team leader sends a notification or other communication, there is no way to reply within this app; I'm always looking for ways to keep communications organized, and email decluttered! I can't reply in this app, but must go to email. I'd love to have Ministry chats kept in this app. When a team leader seeks input from team members, that's not possible here; members are limited to Accepting assignments! If an unexpected event causes someone to need to cancel their prior acceptance of an assignment (PCO DOES allow that to be processed), there is no way to swap with someone else and have that swap show up in PCO. Support has recommended that we put the name of our substitute in the Reason for Declining field; the team leader will have to perform the actual swap, but that means Leader is aware of the swap.

5/5Amazing, but....
Hey PCO. I love Planning Center and I love your app. Super intuitive and practical!! I use it almost as much as I use PCO on my computer. But I’ve been having a couple of problems lately. When I create a new person on the app and put their info in, it doesn’t save the info. I know this because after I create a new person and schedule them for an audition, I ask them to check their email for a PCO invite and they never get it until I redo creating them on the full-site version. Also, sometimes it crashes and it seems to always be at the worst time. I lead worship for The Point Church out the Raleigh area of NC. One thing we are asked to do is to be praying about things to say at certain points in the service. God will give me things to say at odd times and when I receive them, I like to write them in my notes on PCO immediately. I was doing that tonight and was almost done when the app crashed. This wasn’t the first time this happened, but tonight it was extremely frustrating.

5/5Love it, but I would find an addition useful..
I love this app! It’s easy to use and understand. It’s definitely effective and helpful, particularly in receiving and responding to requests. The only thing that me and the rest of my team would love to see is the ability to view the notes that can only be created on the desktop site. They appear in a blue bubble with the number of comments posted. We prefer to post song info in there, but no one can see it on the app! The other two description or note options on both the app and website either make the plan look excessive and long or they stay with the song every time we use it in a plan, even though the details we put in will need to change every time. I like everything else about the app and will still continue to use it regularly!

6.9.1
Eight fixes, one update, zero crashes. We’ve been busy. New • “Unavailable” and “Once a Quarter” scheduling options. Same great options, now on iOS too. Your schedule preferences just got a whole lot more flexible. Improved • Hamburger Menu on phones. Swapped the Column menu for a Hamburger Menu on phone devices. Easier to reach, less head-scratching. • Song sequence spacing: The song sequence section in the edit song item screen was hogging too much screen. Reined in. Fixed • Blockout dates + household members. Household members now show up correctly when adding a blockout date from your profile. No more flying solo. • Crash when sorting songs by Title. Sorting songs by Title no longer sends the app into a full meltdown. Sort away. • Viewers modifying positions. Fixed a bug where Viewers could temporarily adjust assigned positions. They couldn’t save the changes, but still, tidied up. • File upload loop. Uploading a file to a song no longer gets stuck spinning forever. It just finishes. Revolutionary. • “Subscribe to Calendar” button. This button now works correctly when you’re set to “Add Events Only” permission. Back on the calendar.
-
6.9.2
Leaders get the spotlight, names get more real estate, and a few gremlins got shown the door. Improved: • Leader Assignments on mobile. You can now add leader assignments for new items right from your phone. • Leader names in Order of Service. Leader names now appear alongside their avatars in the order of service. Faces are great, but names help too. Fixed: • Split-team scheduling. Removing a split-team member from both times in a plan no longer incorrectly results in an “Unassigned” scheduling. Phew. • Song item descriptions truncated. Song item descriptions were getting cut short in plan view while non-song items were not. Everyone gets full sentences now. • Wrong leader column title in Order of Service. The leader column now displays the correct title. It knew who it was all along.
-
6.9.3
New: - Help Docs: The in-app help documentation now points to the right URL. No more getting lost on the way to getting help. Fix/Improved: - Chat: Messages were going missing after backgrounding the app and unread indicators refused to take a hint. Both are fixed. Your inbox can rest easy. - CarPlay Metrics: Added behind-the-scenes analytics for CarPlay sessions so we can keep making that experience worth the drive. - Other under-the-hood improvements
-
