Great service app

I have been so pleased with this app right from the start and it continues to get better with each update. I love Equipd and know that this app will prove to be the best app for service.


Best App for Service
Mmlja8318

I had been wanting to have an app for service and had downloaded one but it was hard for me to get into, so I never used it. When a tablet group recommended this I thought if Matt did this it had to be fantastic. I did not see where tutorials were at so played it by ear and figured most of it out. When I ran into a problem I emailed Matt and ( I think he sits by his puter as much as I do) he showed me the website and fixed the problem with this last update. If you don't have The Equipd Bible app by Matt you are truly missing out. Linda B


Simple but deep.

What a great app in such a short period of time. What a joy it has been to slowly migrate my old calls into this and add new ones. I was looking at what he has coming on the horizon for ideas and it is just going to get better. May I suggest a in app purchase for a tip jar. I would love to give a little to continue to support the hard work and development of this app and to this hard working brother. It has really organized my ministry. Thanks again.


Highly efficient and easy to use

I abandoned my android field service program for this app that I use on my iPad. I am looking forward to future upgrades with this program, it has fantastic potential I would highly recommend it to anyone. One of the features I love best is that you can schedule your service time on a monthly basis and at a glance you can see if you’re on track to meet your goals for the month. I also highly appreciate the functionality in tracking and mapping return visits.


Great app!

Thanks for a great app.


Best service app out there
Hslenz

I love this app! Especially the map where you can pin calls and the service time planner/ calendar are better designed than in any of the other apps I’ve tried so far. One request to the developer would be to let the user create call types for the profile - we work a lot of refugee homes for example and none of the types applies to that kind of call so more control in that are would be nice. Great app though!


5 stars!

Great app, well worth the $4 price. I downloaded it primarily to use it to plan my hours for pioneer service, and it works well for projecting future hours as well as tracking your current hours. I didn’t think I would utilize the Return Visit Contacts feature after not liking it in other apps, but it works quite well here.


Very useful app
Dmginaz

I have used a number of apps for tracking my ministry, but this one is the best of them all. It is solid, has all the features I need, and is easy to use. Highly recommended!


Just awesome and productive

One of the best app for the ministry that helps publishers to accurately input time, publication and calls. But also helps us to build our personal library to highlight materials to use in the ministry. Takes out the task of having papers and other apps to do the same task. I thank your developer and have shared this app with many.


None.me
Not. Funny

This is the best service app I have found. Has taken a little getting used too, but I find that most of the time I’m just over thinking it and it turns out to be simpler than I imagine. It’s great. I have tried several others. Thank you so much.
