How will my church community know when a new Post is created?
When a new Post is shared, the people who have set your church as “My Church" in Bible App, will be sent a push notification and email, depending on their notification settings. Does someone need help managing their settings? Check out how to do it on iOS and Android.
How will my church community view Posts on the Bible App?
Your church community can view Posts on the Bible App in a few ways:
- By selecting the push notification.
- By tapping the View in YouVersion button in the Post update email (on a device with the Bible App installed).
- By visiting the church’s page in the Bible App. For instructions on finding Posts on your church's page, see how to do that on iOS and Android.
Are Posts measurable?
Yes, you’ll be able to view Post interactions, shares, and engagements under the Insights tab in your YouVersion Connect account.
If my church has multiple locations, will I be able to create Posts for each location?
For multisite churches, Posts can be created at the top organization level or the campus/location level. Keep in mind that if you create a Post at the top level, it’ll override any current Posts at the location level.
Can I create multiple Posts at one time?
Only one Post will be visible on the In-App Page at a time.
Can I schedule a Post to publish at a later time?
Yes, you can now schedule a Post to publish at a future date and time. Learn more about how to do this here.
Am I able to delete a Post after publishing it?
Yes, you can delete an active Post from within YouVersion Connect. Under the Posts tab, open the Post you need to edit and tap Archive.
Will the Post always be visible on my In-App Page?
No, the Post will expire after 7 days.
Are Posts shareable outside the Bible App?
Yes, you can share a Post via text, email, AirDrop, and more!
Can a Post be created or edited within the Bible App?
No, Posts must be created from YouVersion Connect.
Do Posts allow me to share links (hyperlinks) to my church community?
Yes, you can add hyperlinks while creating or editing a Post.
Can I add an image to a Post?
No, adding images to Posts is currently not available.
Why are my church members receiving multiple notifications?
Members receive an email notification when a post goes live, and any edits made after publication generate an additional notification so members are aware that the content has been updated. This helps ensure important changes or corrections made by the church are communicated to members.
