This app is terrible. Every two weeks or so something breaks in the app and whenever I try and view our Church I get hit with the "Whoops, I looks like there was a network issue. Try again?" No matter how many times I "Try again" nothing works until I uninstall and reinstall the app. It's so awful you can barely navigate it when the app does work. For an app whose demographic is usually over the age of 60 this is HORRENDOUS.

My cell updated to 8.0.0 end of January. March came around I began to realize I was missing emails that were being mailed via Realm. Multiple re-installs didn't help although it got the notifications going again on my cell but no email notifications or email messages. Long story short, went all through my Yahoo account, opened a separate gmail account to check it.. that would come through. My long standing personal Yahoo email account, no. Spent a long time on the phone with Verizon, my provider. Nothing they could do. It's all on the app's side of things. And no, I'm not even getting spam because the app isn't allowing any emails to my Yahoo account as it once had. Sent off an email to support for this app. Nothing. Called in.. wonderful ! It seems upon the upgrades the capability to send to my email was lost. Their servers blocked it after so many bounces no doubt. It was instantly rectified.. and I'm back in business as before! Yay! Will encourage you to find out if your Yahoo email address has been blocked by their servers. They need to know. Will give the app a 2 rating. The features are awesome. The app needs to be upgraded so it works across all the devices. !

This thing keeps crashing, it doesn't show any information whatsoever. As the church administrator it's completely annoying when staff and the few members that try to use it can't, and complain to me about it. You can't even contact support from the app! It kind of worked for a while, group communication was never reliable, but now you can't even open the news feed! Thank God we haven't launched this to the community yet! (And we've had Realm for over a year now...)

Android users cannot see the chats. Notifications come through, but the chat tab hasn't updated since November 16. I have to go to a computer. my friends with iPhones don't have a problem, but all my friends with Androids have this same issue. The news tab does update. Photo uploads don't work well. I can't find a photo on my phone to easily attach to a post.

It's an almost completed app with many bugs. You cannot edit a photo after taking it in the app for your profile. It took me multiple attempts to get the picture correctly oriented. You have to take the picture, close the app, reopen, and hope you can select the photo you just snapped. The directory for Android doesn't properly sort or group by letter. Many sections just don't work and give an "oops... something went wrong" Please get these apps working. Our congregation wants this.

Seems to have lost (or changed) the ability to add photos to posts. I can attach files, but they don't appear inline on the post. Also, the app does not support the typical "sharing" interface: I should be able to pick some photos using any gallery app, and share them to Realm. At that point, Realm should prompt me for the group to share to, and for supporting text. Lastly, what someone else said about supporting drafts would be a great enhancement.
