For the same reason some volunteers are sometimes a bit lost about when they are scheduled to serve in the church and these situations create stress. As well you might want to be able to check important information on your members with more ease and an app would be more suitable for those tasks. These are some of the problems which the first version of our app solves and I want&nbsp;to break down the entire app  for you below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Events<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/blog.church.tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/CJ92FGR.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you are logged in into ChurchTools with the app, all service requests will be received as push-notification. In the Events area, you are able to accept or decline service requests (adding a comment if necessary), as well as to see all open and accepted service requests.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Persons and Groups<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Persons and Groups area, you can search for persons in the contact&#8217;s list with a detailed view of the person including picture, age, gender and contact information. Additionally, there are some interaction possibilities such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Call the person<\/li><li>View of the address location in Google Maps\/Apple Maps<\/li><li>Write an email to the person<\/li><li>Display the picture in fullscreen<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/blog.church.tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Qx7tOxK.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The login process is very intuitive and done once the user accesses the app for the first time. The app can  be used in English, German, Portuguese and French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those are all the features the first version of our app has. Of course, more is to come in the upcoming versions and piece by piece we will further expand the app.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app will be released for download on the 12th of December&nbsp; in Apple Store and in Play Store. Don\u2019t worry, we will send you a reminder by email.
