Once your app is ready to launch to your church community, plan a ‘Device Day’ with these resources.

Previous Step
Done

We’ve created a promotional video and slides for you to help launch your app.

Use them for:

  • A ‘Device Day’
  • On your social media channels, attached to a download link for the app
  • Your weekly announcement slide show
  • Your newsletter

Don’t forget to also mention the extra features in the main Baptist NZ app:

  • Discounts for retailers
  • National articles and podcasts

The more places you cover in your launch, the more effective it will be.

Device Day: Launching your app

Once your app is ready, make sure you launch it strongly to your church!

We recommend a ‘Device Day’ to help everyone get the app installed while you’re together

Here’s How:

  • Download launch slides and launch video,
  • Plan some time in your announcements to explain to everyone how to install your app,
  • Offer assistance afterwards to anyone who struggled following your instructions.

If this is the first time you’ve opened the My Church section of the Baptist NZ app, please follow these instructions:

  1. Install the Baptist NZ App from your App Store or Play Store.
  2. Select ‘My Church’ on the bottom menu.
  3. Search for your church. It will appear once our team have setup your initial account.
  4. The church you have selected will remain the default for you, even as you navigate to and from the Baptist NZ environment. This can be reset by going to ‘Settings’.
  5. As you update your app using the instructions in these next steps, force close the app, re-open it and it will refresh to show you your updates.
