What’s New
Version 3.1.0
This is a reasonably big release with a number of changes related to the new reporting guidelines.
ServicePlanner now allows you to optionally hide "hours" and show ticks on the monthly calendar and annual report, supporting the overall focus switch from counting time while still encouraging you to plan your ministry.
## New Features
- Toggle a months reporting between "Shared in Ministry" or "Full Hours" mode using the new button next to Send Report.
- Option to hide hours on the Activity Calendar and show a tick instead. Toggle this from the top/right menu option on the Activity screen.
- Option to hide the Placements, Videos and RVs on the Activity screen. Otherwise they are greyed out but still visible for access to the detail screens.
- You can set the default reporting mode in Settings > Reporting. Otherwise you can change it month-by-month, for example when auxiliary pioneering.
## Issues Fixed
- Fixed issue with service year date range in some time zones.
- Fixed issue with backup reminders.
- Fixed the annual hours summary bar sometimes including carried minutes.
- Fixed issue reporting credit hours vs max hours.
- Further refinements to the Dropbox sync rules.
## Other
- You can now send your report via NW Publisher.
- iOS 14 now required.

Ratings and Reviews
Super useful
Super useful app! Works really well! If "other hours" planned and actual was a different color (or shade) to "ministry hours" planned and actual, it would be useful to glance at the calendar and be able to distinguish what was ministry and what was other
Excellent
Great app for keeping you organised. Great support too.
Does everything I need it to
Enjoy using this app. Has great features I haven’t found on other apps. Easy to use and well laid out. Ensures I remain organised and effective. I have found it very useful working in the Foreign field and different territories.
