Get your church its own app
Your people already reach for their phones on Sunday morning. An Aligned app is your church's website on their home screen — full screen, under your church's name, with push notifications — and it stays up to date whenever the website does.

Good to know
- You never update the app itself. Change your website and the app shows it within about a minute — no store release. Only a new name or icon waits for the next store release.
- Already have a church app from another company? Press Already have a church app? on the App page. Whether your new app can replace it on the same store listing depends on whose developer account the old one is under.
- The chat can take it from here: "continue app setup" says where your app stands and the one next step, with a card that counts what's ready and what's left.
If it’s not working
It says "Couldn't read it"
Your site blocked our reader or didn't answer. That isn't a mark against it — press Use this site for my app anyway, or Read my site again in a minute.
It says my site is "Dated on a phone" or "Not built for phones"
The app is only as good as the site inside it. Rebuild my site on Aligned reads your current site and rebuilds it phone-first — you keep your address. Or press Use my site as it is.
The phone shows a QR code instead of my site
Your website's host doesn't allow it to be shown inside another page, which many hosts do by default. Nothing is wrong: scan the code to see your site on a real phone — that's what the app shows.
I changed my Aligned website and the app doesn't show it
The app opens your published site. Publish the website and the app — and the phone on the App page — follow within about a minute.
