Features & Capabilities

The app is synchronised with a central server allowing you to share information, photos, ratings and comments with others.

Keyholder is designed for those interested in heritage, art and architecture who like to visit English and Welsh parish churches. It is not intended to provide information on service times or contact details for church officials (although this information may be added by users and is available on each entry via "A Church Near You").

User Reviews

There seems to be a bug with some photos showing up as only a blank black square. Even one I submitted myself last year. See Fishbourne Sussex as an example. What’s the point of submitting new photos if they’re going to disappear? I am currently on a UK trip taking more photos. Should I still submit or will they disappear too?
