We solve these problems with Communi
There are two problems that communities often struggle with when they want to strengthen connectivity.
The flow of information is poor. It is difficult to reach people. There are also too many channels through which communication takes place.
- Visitors do not constantly check the website. If they do, they only find the official dates there.
- There is little response to emails.
- The parish newsletter is not up-to-date enough.
- Messenger groups are chaotic or one-sided.
Groups in the community are non-transparent
- Many groups organize themselves via WhatsApp. It is difficult for new people to join the community because everything is closed.
- There is no overview of what is happening when. A huge WhatsApp group doesn't work because all the information ends up there unfiltered. This means that the overview is quickly lost.
Advantages of the app
- Communication is improved.
- New people find events and contacts and become quickly integrated.
- Information can be shared, without the need of forming privat messenger groups. .
- Everything remains clearly divided into topicsinstead of getting lost in a flood of general emails or WhatsApp messages.
- A own app which encourages participation in the community.
- A safe place for communication thanks to hosting in Germany.
Feedback from users
We had various channels of communication in our community (paper form, WhatsApp, Threema, email, homepage, etc.). Thanks to the Communi app, we now have our own customized, central platform for passing on information to the community and exchanging ideas within groups. It is very user-friendly, clear, and is used by all age groups; it connects and is always with you on your smartphone.
The Communi app helps our people to stay connected with each other easily and simply. It enables new visitors to get to know others. It makes it easier to get information and to pass it on. Ultimately, it helps to build relationships. And the church thrives on relationships.
We have activities for children with many participants, whose families are otherwise less involved in the community. Communication takes place via an app group. Parents also get an insight into our community life via the bulletin board. For example, they receive notifications about guest services with appealing, real-life topics. From time to time we are able to greet them there in person.

Replaced the bulletin board, enabled community - that's what the Communi app did for us in the Kesselkirche Stuttgart. People from the congregation and many others can network very well, give things away and plan events. The app perfectly complements our digital offerings with the community factor!
We were looking for a way to connect our listeners and give them the opportunity to get to know each other even over long distances. The Communi app offers us this opportunity, and it does so better than would be possible via Facebook, Twitter, etc. The app now allows listeners to become active themselves, without being dependent on our initiative.
For the evening church, the Communi app was exactly the innovation we needed. It helped us to get people talking to each other. When people get to know each other with the help of an app like this and real, deep friendships develop, it's a brilliant experience.

Our Features
Group function
All your teams and stakeholders in one app.
The groups in your community are visible to everyone. You can keep each group open or closed. When you create a new post, you can decide whether it should only be visible to a specific group or to all users. Perfect for quickly integrating new people and keeping the data protection officer happy.
Using the group chat, you can communicate with others within your group. You can also create posts in the chat. This way, you can ensure that groups remain clear and do not cause disruption even when there are many group members.
Your own app in the app stores
Your own app, with your own name, colors and logo
This is how you reach the people around you! For most people, the smartphone is an important companion in everyday life, so it is important that community life takes place there. With your own app, you always have your community in your pocket.
You can customize our platform to your community in minutes! A key to good communication is the place where it takes place. And there is no better place than your own app.
Calendar
The ideal overview for all events in your community!
Calendars in communities often languish on the website. They contain many regular appointments and are often time-consuming to maintain. This is another reason why they are usually incomplete. You can keep track of everything with the calendar function in your community app. There you can see all the appointments from the bulletin board, as well as those from the community calendar. This gives you the perfect overview without any extra work.
