LEAD.

PushPay ChMS (formerly Church Community Builder) is very feature rich. The Lead app provides some very useful features but not all. For instance you can’t log attendance from an event screen. Or another: individual profile editing is very limited (ie customized fields seem to be omitted in the app, homebound ministry option is absent, and Sacraments can be viewed but not edited.) There is no access to child work approved dates. And more. I would love to be able to update my database on the fly, on my phone. Yes I can access the site through a browser, BUT it’s all formatted for a desktop. More than 1/2 the time I’m standing in the fellowship hall, in a coffee shop, or in the parking lot when I need full access. PushPay, very happy with what you’ve built. Bring the Lead App up to challenge of accessing all that you’ve given us. Thx!

I use this app every day for my church for managing my volunteers and checking the church calendar, however, I also have an iPad and the app is practically unusable on my iPad because when I have a keyboard attached, I have to use the app in portrait mode. It the iPad app will not work in landscape even though the app seems like a basic default iOS layout. I don’t understand why it doesn’t just adapt to landscape when I turn my iPad, please, please, please fix this!

I’ve been working and running most of the digital work for our church for almost 5 years. CCB has been a fantastic help for that, couldn’t be more happy. It doesn’t make itself easy for new comers though. There’s a lot of good and extremely comprehensive tools for the desktop version, there are problems there too; but just talking about how the app works with the software feels like there’s so much missing. I’d love to bring a ton of new people on board for our reconnect or growth programs and automate the entire process but the app just isn’t there yet. The process queue feature is great, but it only shows the title of the queue. No instructions for the person doing the queue, not even a description. When a person is assigned, the only possible notification is an email. This would be the perfect moment to add push notifications for things like this (and push notifications for most features would be amazing for a church to have access too like event reminders and sermon notes instead of “twexting” all the time which also requires us to ask a very weird and intrusive sounding question of the persons cell provider, which can be automated for like 10 cents a person! I had to do it myself). The features they do have are great like making events and the feature we’ve never used Schedules; but there is so much room to grow with this app. I am almost ready to make my own app using api integration because it would be so simple and so useful for things like the queues to be done on the phone where it’s way less overwhelming and way less mundane then through desktop web browser. CCB please add this, we’re almost ready to move to another software that does do this.
