Troubleshooting

When in doubt, here are some tips to help you:

1. Don't use Google Chrome (at least, at present it seems to be modifying the CSV files)
2. If both Membership.csv and Directory.csv are present, only Membership.csv will be used.
3. Disconnect your phone from the computer before you import (okay, it's possible to import with the computer connected, but it's easier to just say unplug it. When it doubt, unplug).


The user base for this app is really growing and some of you are becoming increasingly proficient. So, that said, am I missing anything? Post your tips in the comments.

0.2.0 - Sharing

The new release comes with a few new features, namely the ability to share phone numbers, addresses, and email addresses. I should note that with this ease of use we should not forget that this data is to be used for church purposes only. This feature was suggested by a user, but I will use it frequently, as a frequently get emails/texts from bishopric members asking for contact info.

So, the power is now yours, use it wisely. And enjoy!

Coming soon...

This is just an update to inform you that there is a new version coming. It's a minor release, but adds a new feature suggested by one of you that I think is a fabulous idea. The new version will allow you to long click contact data on the family details page and give you the option of sending that data to any app that will take it.

Why would you want this? I frequently get texts and emails from bishopric members asking for phone numbers. This will allow you to long click a number and send an email or SMS with part or all of the contact data. Copy is also available.

This was not my idea, but I think it is a great one and will be using it frequently.

Look for it soon. The code is done but it needs some testing.
