Pay for event tickets in installments
Let people spread the cost of an event over a payment plan.
- In the dashboard: build the schedule for an event's payments, and collect the balances still due.
- In the app: people see the full schedule before they pay. On a plan, their tickets and the event page show the next payment due instead of the whole balance.
In 2.1.2 on iPhone and iPad, and 2.0.2 on Android.

Worship sets from Apple Music and Spotify
Add the week's songs to an episode by searching or pasting an Apple Music or Spotify link. The app lists the songs so people can play them afterwards, and every song is saved to your library to reuse next time.

Notes outlines and gatherings
