Step-by-Step Instructions
Accessing the New Church Search
You can access the search function from two locations:
- Via Slide-Out Menu: Tap the 3 lines () in the top left of the screen and select "New Church Search" at the bottom.
- Via Settings: Select the More tab on the bottom navigation bar, tap the gear icon in the upper left corner, and then select “New Church Search” under “Search.”
Finding Your New Church
- Search by Church Name: Type a specific church name (or denomination) into the top search bar and hit enter. [All results containing the text will be listed.]
- Search by Church Location: Use the bottom search bar.
- If Location Services are on, your current address will fill automatically.
- To search a different location, press the gray “X” next to the address, then enter your desired location.
- Select your desired church from the list. [Churches are sorted by distance from your current location, with closer churches shown first.]
- Wait for the icon change prompt to appear. [A notice will pop up asking if you want to change to a personalized app icon; confirm your choice to complete the switch.]
Troubleshooting & FAQs
- Why did the app icon change? When you select a new church, a notice pops up asking if you want to change from the generic Tithely icon to the church's personalized app icon. Confirming this completes the switch.
- Can I search for denominations? Yes, typing in a denomination name into the top search bar is a great way to find all associated churches.
- How are the search results ordered? All church results are sorted by distance from your current location, showing closer churches first.
