User Reviews

Users praise Planning Center People for easy mobile access to a church directory, quick in-app calling/texting, and useful scheduling/volunteer features that help church leadership manage people and groups on the go. Many reviews note the app is helpful for pastors to access information away from a computer and to coordinate volunteers. However, recurring stability problems dominate the feedback: frequent crashes (especially during search or login) after updates, plus sign-in/server errors and some device compatibility issues. Missing forms support on mobile and limited form/workflow integration are also common requests, along with imperfect search results.
Pros
  • Mobile access makes it easy to look up church members on the go.
  • Direct call/text capability from a person’s profile.
  • Great for scheduling groups and volunteers (staff/worship teams).
  • Helpful for pastors/leaders to quickly access important church information.
  • Ongoing updates and improvements to the app.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and instability across various actions (searching, logging in, after updates).
  • Missing forms support and limited mobile form/workflow functionality.
  • Unreliable search results and search-related failures.
  • Sign-in/server errors and occasional compatibility issues on older devices (e.g., iPhone 8).
  • Feature gaps like exporting contacts to the phone and readability issues in notes.

The app crashes about 25% but if it was more stable I’d be fine.

I love this app. It’s like having an online directory of my church always at my fingertips. Really easy to look up info on people in the church and you can call or text them easily without having to take the time to physically switch to another app.

I would almost suggest scrapping this whole planning center system. It’s far too complicated, way too restrictive, an impossible to get everybody on board with. Think about this, everyone has Facebook and knows how to use it. But only three out of 300 people are willing to use this. And it still does not accomplish the goals that we need accomplished.
