## Review summary

The Universal Church Directory app provides useful church-management features like adding families and sending event notifications, with generally positive notes on directory quality when functioning. However, recurring reliability problems dominate user feedback: crashes, updates that break the app, device-specific issues (notably on iPhone 11), and bugs in photo/name display. Some users see improvements on newer devices or after reinstalls and appreciate the free offering, but overall stability remains a major concern.

### Pros

- Free to use for church administration
- Helpful directory management features (e.g., adding new families)
- Ability to send notifications for church events and prayer concerns
- Directory content looks good and photos can turn out well when functioning
- Some users report improved stability on newer devices and after updates

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and instability; app won't open or locks up
- Update-related breakage; latest updates cause it not to open or install
- Compatibility issues on iPhone 11 with immediate crashes
- Bugs in directory features (can't place photos in staff blocks; name fields truncated by character limits)
- App appears outdated, with no updates for years
