This app really needs to have downloaded songs and audio in its own folder. There should be the option to set what folder to use, songs in one sub folder and audio in another. Majes way more sense than using the default downloads folder.

This is a great app for singing at church and knowing when I'm supposed to do what it's just good for knowing when and where and how I need to do everything at church, but I guess I'm supposed to have a bunch of features at the bottom of the screen that I don't see. I'm supposed to see the schedule the plan the songs media and people, but I don't have that, and we can't figure out why. But otherwise it's a great app
07/08/26 After recent update "Saved accounts" option disappeared. This is very inconvenient. Great app! The only issue I've is not being able to play multitracks through the app. Some issues with account connection. Our worship team have subscription, and everything is set up properly by the person who manages the Services app and multitracks.

Why is mine not showing me the icons below where I can see the songs? My church just started using it and all I can see are my schedule while the 4 or so icons below those, do not show. What should I do?

I actually love Planning Center, but want the developers to see this. Since the 8/5/25 update, invites are no longer sent to my Android (chat or email) and there's no way to accept or decline from Services directly. I do still get chat/email from group reminders.

The app put me a church that I was involved in 3 years ago. Will not let me change churches.

App is not working!! Our church had a training class today 3.14.26 and no one could access the app. We had to go on Planning Center actual website, but some things we wanted to do told us to do it on the app. We can not access the app.
