Gospel Living for Positive User Reviews
✓ So much potential!I am giving it 5 stars, but I hope someone in development will still read this review and take my plea into consideration. I use this app daily to meet goals and write in my journal. Sometimes it takes forever to even pop up on my phone. The checklists often freeze and don’t register my taps. So I have to go into settings and choose “show completed” and that usually works better. But I prefer for have completed tasks disappear. I thought it was my phone, but I just got a new one and it still struggles. So much. So much so that I want to see if I can access the app from my computer. I also wish there was a way to set a goal for 6 days a week, or 3 days a week, and have them show up on the days I want. Like a goal to exercise. I don’t want it on Sundays, but it has to be, and if I don’t mark it done, it shows my progress is lacking. So instead, my goal is to exercise or meditate 30 minutes a day. Which is fine. But there are other goals I really don’t want to work on every single day. I do have some weekly goals, and that works well. I want to say that as I’ve consistently used this app daily, I have seen so much personal growth and I love it! I don’t know if there’s a way to back up my journal or access it online or export it, but I sure hope there is. It has been a long, long time since I have written in my journal daily, but thanks to this app I am going on 5 months of daily journal entries!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great! But could we have it online too?This app is just great. It’s been sooo helpful in lots of ways. It’s especially nice to have a way to talk with my classes at this time in history with all the COVID-19 stuff going around. I just have one suggestion. A lot of the youth in my ward don’t own or have access to a smartphone or tablet. It would be really nice if there was an online version available that could be accessed on a computer. It would make it a lot easier to access for some people..Version: 1.1.8
✓ Great progressive app.Seems great so far. I’m assuming it will keep improving as well..Version: 1.1.3
✓ So happy they came out with this app!My kids will be able to be a lot More organized now!.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Cracking appHonestly some great fun here :).Version: 1.1.4
✓ Great integration of connectedness and focus!Our homes are a sanctuary from (but within) the world, and this app feels like a sanctuary from (but within) the virtual world! Enjoying the features for keeping goals, reminders, and a private way to connect with my family and those serving in callings for the classes and quorums we are all involved in. This is great to teach texting with some safeguards in a more private app. Excited to keep using it, and hope some features will come on board (like extending circles to those we are ministering, or extended family not in our household)..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Fantastic App!I love everything about this app! It’s brilliants and I’m so thankful the church has provided us with the means to set goals, have youth music at our fingertips and be spiritually edified by the content. There are a few issues, but with time some of the small glitches will eventually be worked out. For example, the app runs a little slow and it takes a minute or two for it to catch up to certain actions, specifically in the circles part when searching for people and adding people to circles. It takes a hot minute for the discover page to refresh too. My only request at this point would be a circle added for the youth who are 14+ that can attend dances, FSY, and other other activities. I live in a small ward so we don’t have split young women classes. My girls (I serve as the YW President at this time) 12-18 all meet together because of this. A circle for just the 14+ year olds, for the purpose of communicating certain activities, would be the icing on the cake for me 😁.Version: 2.4.0
✓ Need some help! Hopeful and will update review as updates come outI would like to suggest. Work in progress. As a PP from a large primary. the capacity to create additional circles and separate the circles in primary currently. -we need to be able to create groups for more than 1 activity group in primary. primary is only given 1 group for boys 1 group for girls We need 4 at least. -the ability to see chat discussions online and create goals. This is because you can only use this through a mobil device and not all children age 7 and up have access to one. And kids should not use the same login as adults. So they can work on their goals. We also have many large families and this would really benefit them. -we have several non member families that go and attend. We can not include them :( -please find a way to give access to divorce parents to both be a part of a child’s circle.Version: 1.1.5
✓ Amazing app but you could a couple things...I just got the app and it has awesome content but the scripture of the day isn’t working and me and my family want a circle but we can’t figure out how to make one and people with iPads sound disappointed I have a friend with an iPad and to fix that problem would be great other than that it’s an awesome app (Needs memes though kinda expected that 😬) thank you so much for making it I needed it 😁.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Great but has notification issuesI like the circles portion of this app but I never can get my phone to give me notifications when somebody post something to my circles that I am a part of. I have notifications enabled in the app for both of the circles that I am following, and I have all notifications enabled on my iPhone 8 in the Notification settings. When I open the app then I will get a bad notification that there are new posts and if I close the app before reading them then the badge will stay on the app and appear on my phone..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great app!! Still a few things to addI have been looking forward to this app as a parent and leader of youth! This is such a great way for communication and keeping track of our goals! There are a few things that still need work. It is linked with the Gospel Tools app, & if ward clerks do not update callings, our leaders or class presidencies won’t be added to the appropriate circles. It would be great if administrators like the Bishop or YW president had the ability to add the necessary people to groups. This goes the same for household circles. I have older sons who want to help their little brothers with their goals, but are not on our circle. We’d love to be able to add them and even grandparents to our household group!.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Love this app, just wish that the goal setting was differentI love this app. I just wish that the goal setting in the app was a little bit different. When you set a goal, you can only write it down as your goal, and under that, write a little bit about that goal. With the new program, goal setting has become very important. So I just wish that it was easier to set goals. Some things that you can’t do that I really wish you were able to do are being able to mark a goal as done. I also wish that you could write down steps you have to accomplish in order to complete this goal. Other than that, I think that this is a great app!.Version: 1.1.6
✓ ThanksThanks for investing in an app that we can use to chat without having to use social media apps like messenger because we have a lot of people that don’t want to use that app. Just a few suggestions for the circles, a chat for Bishop, EQ and RS president only. A YSA chat and also Bishop should be included in the Relief Society chat because sometimes Bishop likes to share important information and help monitor the chat groups. But I love the app and look forward to updates..Version: 1.1.8
✓ A prayer answeredI love the idea of this app and have been excited to get it when it came out. The moment was now. I’m very happy with the turnout of its content. This past year hasn’t been easy for me. I’ve been needing a little more guidance and the content has answered my prayers. I’ve found that it relates to everyday teenage struggles and give answers to what I’ve been needing to do in order to strengthen myself spiritually and mentally. I love the broad subject on getting to know your family and friends. To strengthen relationships and teach others about the church. Thank you SO much for delivering a light I’ve been needing..Version: 1.1.6
✓ Excellent way to ConnectI have been using this app for a while. Works great with iPhone. I use “Circles” to connect with those who I serve. As soon as a message comes I get notification on my phone and Apple Watch. Best way to focus on the Lord’s work with out noise of the World!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Living AppThis app is amazing. Ever since the face to face devotional, I have been so excited to finally get to use it. There are various features, all which help a bunch. First, the discover tab. It has a lot of great content and many inspirational messages which are very uplifting. Next, the Today page. This tab is also very neat. You can add your church schedule to your calendar and never miss a meeting. Also, you can link others on it so they never will also. This will be so useful for all of the activities and meetings that people have to go to. The next tab is the My Life tab. In it, you can add impressions and goals. This will be helpful in the new Youth Program where people will set goals and complete them. The next tab is my favorite one: Circles. This tab acts as a group chat for all of the classes that you are in. Wether it be a Sunday School class or Priests Quorum, you can chat with them about upcoming things and also in many other ways. The last tab is the My Profile tab. This is where you can log into your account and see additional info. Overall this app is great and I am really excited to finally be able to use it..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Just wanna up the ratingChurch.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Just one thing to fix . . .I think that this app is very useful and an awesome resource for church members. However, the “household” circle (at least for those people I know) does not seem to work correctly. As far as I know, household circles do not include actual household members, but rather just the single user on the app. Therefore if we send something, we are only messaging ourselves. In my personal household group I am shown as an administrator, but I have no power to add anyone else to my group. I don’t know if this has to do with the fact that I’m 18+ and living with my parents, but it does seem like a bug. In content and design, though, this is a great app. I enjoy browsing the discover tab, and especially like the church music playlists that the app shares..Version: 1.2.1
✓ It’s amazingI love this app so much. I would like it if you could individually message people though through circles. Other than that though it is perfection.👌.Version: 1.1.8
✓ I love this appI am so happy to see the bugs have been worked out of this app! I do have a suggestion that would make this app complete. A full calendar! So activities could seen all at once. This would help with planning activities so much easier. This one feature would make this the perfect app. I would also love for something to be sent out by the church reminding the saints of this app since all the bug fixes. Many went away and haven’t come back or have never heard of it. This is too a valuable resource become this obscure!.Version: 2.6.1
✓ Great app. Need better notifications on CirclesI really love this App. The information available is wonderful. The Circles tab could be amazing if only a few things are worked on. First and foremost, the notifications need improvement. I could go a day or two without knowing someone sent a message if I’m not checking it constantly. When I send something, I need people to notice it has been sent. Also, if we could build some of our own circles, that would be great. My wife is the seminary teacher and it would be great if she had a circle for her students. We also have youth from other units that need to be included for communication purposes. Let’s work out a few kinks and make this app incredible!!!.Version: 1.1.7
✓ Logout featurePlease make a logout feature I need to switch my account since I used the wrong one when signing in. I can’t get in any circles. It would make it so much better!!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ The notifications stopped😐I love this app and how it lets me connect with my YW group and other youth, as well as the fun activities and spiritual messages I can access. When I first got the app, I got notifications every time anyone posted anything, which I loved because the posts were always helpful and uplifting. However, about a month ago, my phone stopped sending me notifications. Please fix this. Other than that I don’t have any problems. This is a great and uplifting app!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ I’m loving but here are some ideasI love the app. It’s so much easier to communicate with my quorum. I love the reading and how accessible it is. I also love the inspiration and goals tabs. Here are some ideas though: -The links in are dark blue and with the black background sometimes it’s hard to see what they say. This might because my phone is on dark mode however. -When you click on scriptures it would be awesome if it linked you to the Gospel Library app if you have it rather then the church website because then I can link it to my scripture reading and marking in there. Or maybe pop up in a tab to the side like it does in the gospel library app rather than reroute to another page. -my friends and I were super excited for this app because we wanted to make a group chat to send uplifting and spiritual thoughts. We have one on GroupMe but it would be cool if we could make a circle on the Gospel Living app. I haven’t found a way to do this..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Wonderful nowWill you be upgrading for use on an iPad? I only have a landline phone and this iPad, new and updated so I was hoping that this app would work on an iPad, but it doesn’t. 😢 thank you for updating this app for iPad use. It looks like it will be a very helpful tool and seems to function nicely now. You are wonderful and very awesome with brains that know how to fix gadgets that us older people have no idea how to work them. But I am willing to learn this and thanks you again. God bless you and your team. May God bless you always. 🤗💕.Version: 1.1.8
✓ How do you share a photo or attach link in circlesOur ward RS would really like to use this uplifting website as a way to communicate vs what’s up app or some other chat line but we are having troubles using it this way. Is there a way to do this we don’t know about? Please post if you know of a way? We DO like that you can see the names of people right above their post..Version: 1.1.8
✓ Branch out more?For the purposes of my teenagers, this app is great. I think it has the potential to do a lot more, though! It would be a great tool for ministering - especially the Circles. Please make an option to create your own circles within wards (or stakes!). I know my kids have friends in other wards in our stake and other nearby stakes, and they would enjoy the ability to quickly and easily communicate and share articles (and stake youth events!). So a group for friends you met at girls camp, or friends you met at that super fun dance the next stake over..Version: 1.1.7
✓ Great concept with room for improvementI think this app is a great concept and I have been waiting in anticipation. I love that it is an all-in-one kind of an app. Our stake has really pushed the use of our ward online calendar to schedule activities and other planned events; it would nice if this app would sync with that calendar to keep everyone up to date and eliminate the chance of redundancies. Also, I noticed that it lists people, such as myself, as an “administrator” but I see no functionality to that role in the app. Thanks for making this app such a useful tool. I look forward to seeing it improve and get better..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Great AppUseful resources for leaders and youth..Version: 2.5.2
✓ The iPad problem:Thank you for fixing it! This has made using the app much better..Version: 1.1.8
✓ Under-used by membersI believe this tool is under-used my the members of my ward / Stake. More valuable than other social media platforms as it doesn’t advertise or track my viewing habits..Version: 2.5.2
✓ Can you remove people from circles?I haven’t used it too much, but I would love to be able to remove people from the circles. I feel if the entire bishopric and YW presidency is on every single group they will get a lot of messages and could get confusing or overwhelming especially when they don’t really need to be in all of them. Also would love to add Adult advisors/leaders. It would be great to be able to create our own as well. I love the idea behind this though. If/when all the youth are using it I know it’ll make staying in contact with them so much more convenient..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Latest update is great, but still buggyThere is so much potential with the addition of the “goals” tab. I love how it’s set up, and have enjoyed setting my goals, and this app has made it easy to follow through with them. However, it still is buggy. I mark off goals and they come back as unmarked, or I go to edit them and it just goes back to the previous screen. As someone who enjoys the satisfaction of marking things off, it can be a little discouraging when I can’t do that properly. Lastly, making “circles” available on the web would be great for those youth who don’t have phones. As a leader, it’s been difficult for me to really promote that portion of the app because it would exclude those who don’t have their own phones. Otherwise, it’s really becoming an awesome app. Keep it up!.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Please create a circle for the Sunday School Presidency to communicate with all of the teachersI love the Gospel Living app. It is so inspired and such a blessing for us to have. My only feedback is that I am a member of the Sunday school presidency in our ward and I would love a way to communicate directly with all of the teachers in the ward (I.e. Sunday School teachers, Elders Quorum teachers, Relief society, young men and young women teachers, primary, etc.), especially as we are working on better implementing Teaching the Saviors Way, just as we would like our teachers to communicating more with their students throughout the week in an effort to make learning more home-centered and church supported. Thank you!.Version: 2.5.2
✓ Updates needed but will be great.The potential of this app is huge but right now the flexibility is lacking. When adding to the calendar it doesn’t automatically put in the date that you clicked to add an event. Say I went to June 17th to add a calendar event. I click the + sign to add a calendar item, then put in the event. Then I have to scroll from March to find the date I need instead of it automatically generating to the date I actually clicked on. Also the circles are great but the admintrators should have the ability to delete, change or add people to it. We are excited to start implementing the use of this app more and more and are hoping that there will be fixes along the way..Version: 1.1.7
✓ Everyone needs to download this so we can see how awesome it isHere’s the thing. Everyone ought to download and set up this application, and then set a few goals for themselves. Just like all other social media applications, it’s power comes in the amount of people on the app. Right now, there aren’t a TON of people using it, but it has an incredible potential! You can set goals and share them with people. You can write down impressions then set a reminder for when you want to follow through. Think social media but clean and wholesome. The app isn’t perfect yet, but the more people use it, the better it will get as more feedback gets through..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Good so FarJust one minor thing, just updated the app and when I go into Circles my keyboard covers half the text field, even tried turning off predictive text thinking that was the problem, nope. Not detrimental but kinda annoying.Version: 1.1.8
✓ Needs more for GoalsI’ve been looking forward to using this for a long time. Overall it looks great and I’m excite for most features. I’m a little disappointed in the Goals section. You can create goals, but they are just statements you view in the My Life section. You can create reminders, but the repeat options are limited. And that’s it for goals. No date, no repeat, no way to mark complete, no sub-goals or steps to reach, no way to measure progress. Since Goals are such a central part of the new Youth program, I was expecting quite a bit more development in this area. I was hoping to use this app as my central command center for managing my goals, but can’t do that... yet. I hope this functionality comes soon!!.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Circles 😬 Everything else 🤩I don’t want my review to make this app’s rating go down at all, but I would like to see a bit more flexibility in the Circles tab. I think it’s really cool that it’s already put me in the group chats within my ward, and some other ones like priests quorum, and all of the young men. But there are times when it’s more convenient to just message a couple of people, rather than the entirety of the youth in the ward. Being able to choose one or a few people in a circle at your own expense would be a great addition to the app. This app is really amazing though, there’s a Discover tab that is very fun to explore, with a lot of spiritual things to pull ideas from. I love this Scripture of the day thing going on too, I’ve loved it for the past few days since I’ve gotten this app and will continue to, I have yet to put the calendar to use, but it looks promising and I’m excited to put it to use. The goals and impressions tab is a bit disappointing. The goals are only one-liners, and when you tap them you can view your description of the goal. They’re pretty brief. Impressions are as expected though, they appear similar to a journal entry. Overall I’m very happy with the app so far and am looking forward to seeing it grow with features and users as more people join the church, and more church members get the app. Thanks for all of your work so far! :).Version: 1.1.4
✓ Desktop version?I think this is a great app but something I think would help communication within classes/quorum is a desktop version of at least the Circles feature for those who do not have a personal mobile device. They can potentially see what is happening in their Circles groups by use of a parent’s mobile device, if the parent has the app, but they would not be able to comment on the chat. If this is able to be accomplished I believe it would help further connection between class members and leaders. Thanks!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ AMAZING but...This app is the best! Just two suggestions, I have a iPad. And my moms on her phone almost every day so I can’t get it or do it on her phone. And, it’s the size it should be on my iPad. (Look in the photo) see? Anywho, I agree with the circle requests too, I mean, it’s great and all but I want I bigger way to contact secret people, not the whole Shabang. I love this app, but I’m really hoping you can upgrade the size to iPads. It’s hard to use the circle keyboard when I go to type too sooo, thanks so much for this app, and it’s amazing features. ~~ A.E.A.Version: 1.1.6
✓ Separate circles areIt would be much nicer to have the circles group chat as a Separate app.Version: 2.4.0
✓ I LOVE IT❤️I have been so excited for this app ever since the face to face I think it is so great and is a really good way to spend your time. The only suggestion I would have is, with your goals, I think every day you should have a little area next to the goals and you can check off if you worked on that goal that day, and if you still haven’t checked it off the app could send you a reminder and also the reminders should be a bit more spread out just randomly so u don’t get them all at one time😁.Version: 1.2.0
✓ Great appThis app truly changes lives. Assignments and personal revelation has never been easier. Was going to give it 4 stars for weak tablet displays, (you had to hold it upright or you would only have a 3 by 3 inch screen with 2/3 of the content lopped off) but I got the new update and it now works great in any orientation only problem; the text is now a bit too small compared to the images. That is my only complaint, but it doesn’t really matter much compared to the rest of the amazing things on this app. 😊.Version: 1.1.8
✓ Great, and lots of potentialVery spiritual app already, but Ive had some ideas about improvement, like what if you could keep an online journal on the app. Entries could be marked in the 4 categories and visited later or even brought back by the app (like memory feature of facebook) for you to view your spiritual progression. What if you could “freind” people, and post spiritual experiences/temple visits/Etc. for them to see. This way you could lift others up across multiple wards. What if you could keep track of scripture reading/prayer goals on the app. What if the app gave you a scripture of the day from your highlighted versus in the Gospel Library app..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Seems pretty greatBut I was mostly interested in the Group communication aspect. I wish parents could post in their children’s circles as well as get notifications of posts in those circles if they want. Otherwise, it’s really not that great of a real-time communicator. Parents will have to manually go in to each of their child’s groups to check for messages. They aren’t going to be notified and so they won’t see posts in a timely manner and thus people aren’t going to use it to communicate as much. Maybe it’s not meant to be that kind of a messaging platform though..Version: 1.1.4
✓ 2021 AttemptTrying to get all the youth on the app for 2021, after the response in 2020 was lukewarm - however so many great updates have happened since then. It would be great to be able to message parents of youth, have youth directly message their leaders (my youth leaders circle perhaps), edit messages, and for the calendar notification to go away after checking Thank you for continuing to update this app - it is a great potential tool to connect to the ward and the levels of transparency are great when interacting with the youth!.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Needs a Log OutI can’t find where to Log Out. I want my kids to be able to have access to the app, but We also restrict their usage of personal devices, so in order for them to be able to participate on this app, they will need to log in on mine or my husbands devices, so we need to be able to log in and out. We would also like to have an option for circles to be able to connect with extended family that live far away and not in our ward/stake so the cousins can encourage and share better with each other..Version: 1.1.6
✓ Great! I have Suggestions:This is a truly amazing app. I was so excited when they first announced it! A couple of suggestions: -Maybe in discover there could be a search bar, like so you can find music you just search up “music” instead of scrolling and maybe not even finding what you want - for the calendar thingy, can there be a “every day” option or a “select the days” option? Because I want to put my Youth activities so I don’t forget and we have them every week, so I think it’d be a great add on Those are the two biggest things. There is more but since the app just launched I don’t want to be that one very picky person.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Wonderful appIt is a great app and I am so excited for it, however, there could be a few small improvements made! 1. I’d recommend putting the calendar section and the journal section into one so it can be written for a specific day and you can also set goals and reminders for that specific day. Eg read scriptures today, write a letter to a friend, etc. 2. With this new space freed up in the tool bar, you could utilise it to create a new feature such as a video section (BOM videos, Church messages, etc.) and you could use the ‘discover’ section as a ‘news’ section. Obviously these are just suggestions and it is so much easier for me to say these things than for the church to put them into practice, but I do think there can be improvements! Other than that it is an awesome app and is created by inspired leaders 🙂.Version: 1.1.4
