The Directory in this app is a great feature although our church doesn’t utilize it that much. Most people I know in our church that use this app use it for the Giving feature. I use this app primarily for Giving so that I can give spontaneously while in church. However, the giving functionality in this app is very limited. It does not let you do a split transaction to multiple categories in the same transaction. You must make each contribution to a category as separate transactions! Another big deficiency is when you look at your giving history, it only displays only the amount and dates for the transaction but not the category, which makes it nearly useless. I hope the developers will use the app themselves because they will quickly realize it’s deficiencies. It would also be nice if they would make the app talk directly to the bank instead of going through your web browser as an intermediate step.
