Emoji Options Allow Multicultural Responses
Improvement
🙌🙌🏻🙌🏼🙌🏽🙌🏾🙌🏿
Attenders can now select from the color palette of emojis for hand claps, and hand raises. Choosing a different skin tone works the same way your attenders are used to accessing it on other platforms—just long-press on the emoji, then pick the one you want.

RTL Language Support
New
Church Online Platform’s interface now supports Right-to-Left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. All that Hosts or attenders need to do is set your device to the language you prefer. If the language you’ve selected is supported, your text automatically displays in the proper configuration.
Television Browser Support
New
Now you can attend church online through the browser on your smart television, or through television devices. Church online functionality through a TV browser is limited to the basic video experience.
To see church online on your smart TV or TV device, open its browser and visit a website where church online is happening.
Image Moment
New
Our goal has always been to equip churches with tools that go beyond watching and focus on creating authentic community around content. One of the newest ways we're providing to deeper engage with your audience is through the brand-new Image Moment.
The Image Moment allows you to share an image in the chat feed. Attenders can like and discuss the image in the chat, and then share it directly to their social media feeds, which helps reach more people that may attend your service!
New Prayer Request and Private Chat Invite Sounds
Improvement
When a prayer request or private chat request is initiated, we added an audible notification so Hosts can more easily connect with attenders.
Language Support for Burmese, Zawgyi
Improvement
Burmese and Zawgyi have been added as supported and localized languages for attenders and Hosts.
Salvation Moment Updates
Improvement
To add some flexibility for churches in the platform, Admins now have the ability to choose between a localized Salvation Moment or the brand-new customized Salvation Moment.
What's the difference between the two?
The localized Salvation Moment provides preset call-to-action text and preset response text that cannot be changed in order to automatically translate to a User's language based off of their geographic region.
When you customize the Salvation Moment, you have the choice to input your own prompt and response text.
