User Reviews

Planning Center Check-Ins offers faster, paper-free check-ins and strong value with good support and useful printing/reports, plus frequent updates. However, recurring issues impact experience: printer compatibility and reliability with certain printers, stability problems causing crashes or load failures, and a dependency on stable internet. When hardware and connectivity cooperate, it’s a strong church check-in solution; otherwise these reliability concerns have been a persistent pain point.
Pros
  • Efficient digital check-in that reduces paper usage and speeds attendance tracking.
  • Strong value/affordability for churches.
  • Responsive customer support and helpful online resources.
  • Regular updates and new features with clear communication.
  • Printing and reporting features help track attendance and follow up.
Cons
  • Printer compatibility is limited and connections can be unstable (e.g., Brother 810; only Dymo/Zebra supported).
  • App stability issues include crashes after check-in and occasional load failures.
  • Reliance on a solid internet connection; reliability can be affected by connectivity.

All along this app has been a constant pain due to frequently losing connection to the recommended Brother 810 printers. Well…3.0 ramps that up to absolutely unusable. The three ipads we updated lose printer connection after just a couple of minutes, rendering them useless. So much for the major overhaul. I would love to go back to the previous version so we could at least get a good 5 or 10 minutes before an error, but of course that’s not an option. Instead we get to be embarrassed and frustrated by the checkin system three times a week. If you have the 810 printers i highly recommend avoiding version 3.0

can not print to just any printer, only compatible with Dymo and Zebra... not easy to configure or troubleshoot, often must resort to writing names on the thermal paper with a marker or using lanyards, which defeats the purpose of paying monthly for this service... searching by name is not very useful, not tolerant, must be exact spelling unlike smart phones and google search. times out too quickly not user friendly no support waste of time waste of electricity not environmentally friendly waste of money

App will not load. Startup screen appears with a QR image and text indicating a process for setting up a new station but before the user can do anything, screen flashes and reappears. Does not respond to any presses. Does not allow any use. This is on an iPad mini running 12.5.5
