Best Practices for Signing Up
Before you sign up for a YouVersion Connect account, you should have a personal YouVersion account. When choosing which YouVersion account to use, we have a couple of best practices to keep in mind.
Tips & Best Practices
- Easy access to your account email. Not only will you need to confirm your YouVersion account via email, but we will also send out product updates, helpful tips, and new trainings to this email address.
- Personal usage verses work usage. We have seen a lot of pastors & church leaders create a new YouVersion account that is tied to their work email. They log in to their YouVersion Connect account with that YouVersion account, but still use their personal account for daily Bible reading, tracking personal prayers, and more.
- Account access for multiple people. Instead of using your personal YouVersion account or one associated with your work email, you could also create a YouVersion account using a generic church email (info@yourchurchname.com, for example). This works well for churches that want the YouVersion Connect owner to be a neutral account, as opposed to being tied to a specific individual’s account.
After you have signed up for a YouVersion Connect account, you will be able to invite additional people to be owners, administrators, or even just Insights viewers. Just make sure they have a YouVersion account set up for whatever email address you send the invite to!
Once you have your general YouVersion account set up, you are ready to sign up for YouVersion Connect! We can't wait to see how God will use these tools in your ministry.
