Yes. Eventually we will have all our books on there. It is slow process since we are working with volunteers for this.

Have “Recently Played” List

pcw 2 years ago 0

A couple of things that came up as a result of using the new “play random“ feature. (Which I really like!) First, I played something random, which ended up being a sermon by Marvin Daughterer. I started listening, but didn’t finish. The next day I wanted to pick up where I left off, but I couldn’t remember from where or when it had come. I found myself spending quite a bit of time searching for that sermon before finding it. Turns out it was a sermon from a Wednesday night in 2014 in Forest Illinois. During that exercise I found myself wishing there was a “recent“ menu option off the More menu. Just a thought.

Version 4 of AC Central includes links to congregation information, such as starting times, location, directions and links to congregation website (if they have one). We will not be adding actual minister names.

Downloading sermons

Marvinh 3 years ago updated by Admin 2 years ago 2

When I try to download a sermon, I find it hard to click the icon so it starts the download.  Typically I need to try lots of times until it begins.  As a suggestion, you could add that option to the "Cancel / Play Audio" pop up 

Answer

In version 4 of AC Central, downloading is done by tapping the three dots button on each listing to access additional features from a popup menu. Hopefully that works better for you.

Speed Control button on Android is clumsy

Samuel 3 years ago updated by Admin 2 years ago 2

The speed control button on Android is very clumsy. First of all, the area that needs to be tapped is very small, and easily missed by your finger. Second, if I want to slow it down by 0.25 (i.e. from 1.5x to 1.25x), I have to cycle through all the speeds to get back to 1.25x. A simple slider with a larger area to grab with your finger would suffice.

Thanks for adding a speed control in the first place, it is very helpful when the speaker is very slow!

Answer

The 4.0.6 update changed the speed control to be a popup menu so user can quickly select a speed.

Night's Stay

cbteubel 3 years ago 0

Hello, 

Speaking with a Brother when we visited a different one of our churches, about our hospitable church history and way to better facilitate our practice. 



It would be culturally impactful and clean communication wise to have a 'travel' icon in AC Central. 

Folks traveling can go on the app and select which church they are going by/to and how many in their party/ages.


Folks from each church who have a home & interest in hosting travelers can sign up to receive notifications of a traveler coming to their church. The first one from that church who 'accepts' the request would close the ticket and see the visitor's contact info for planning.

New updated app doesn’t load sermons correctly

onlineorders0819 3 years ago updated by Admin 2 years ago 11

This problem only began with the new app…only the first 10 sermons of every congregation load instantly. If you want see anything beyond the first 10 sermons…you have to refresh and refresh and get out of the app and reopen it. Sometimes it never will load more than 10. If it won’t load more than 10, it also will not search more than the 10 sermons that show up in that particular congregations. It also will not show any downloaded items until all the archives have loaded. Just wondering why this would only be a problem that started with the new update?  Running iOS 14.6

Answer

Version 4 of the app uses a different method of fetching data which should have resolved this issue. If not, please post a new issue. This is one is being closed since it refers to a prior app version.

All downloaded files on same page

Greg Eisenmann 3 years ago updated by Admin 2 years ago 2

It would be helpful to have a page where all downloaded audio files could be accessed at the same time. It is a little clunky to navigate to the proper section first.

Agreed. We are planning a rethinking of the entire user interface in 2022 and this will be changed then.

Why do downloaded sermons disappear after a time?

onlineorders0819 3 years ago updated by Admin 3 years ago 1

Just wondering why downloaded sermons disappear after a while? It’s not just when the app has a little maintenance update to run…randomly everything downloaded will be gone even if an update was not started.
