Profile for active investigators possible?

Post by sapayne »

The open version of the Gospel Library app doesn't have the same features as the member version, such as sharing lessons and hymns. Is there a way to add those features to people our missionaries are working with? Thank you in advance.

Probably not. The system knows what to show the members based on the ward thier membership record is in. There is no such system for non-members.

You could try sending feedback. Maybe suggest something like: If the missionaries are teaching someone, then working with them to get a Church Account could be made an option to allow access to things via Areabook. I don't know of any work in this area, but it sounds like a really interesting idea and a way to get the investigator more connected in.

Thanks all. I sent the request through the gospel library app and I was basically told what @russellhltn indicated above. That the ward specific features are tied to a membership number and that investigators don’t have one so they won’t be able to get those added features. I guess we can take the “but wait, there’s more” approach and maybe that’ll entice them to join. 😉 Have a great evening and thanks for the guidance.
