Audio Calling
When every member needs to hear your voice
Record a message, tap send, every phone rings. Delivery tracking tells you who was reached — and who wasn't.
Why church phone trees fail
The problem isn't your volunteers — it's the method.
Phone trees break at the first missing link
One person doesn't answer, and entire branches go dark. There's no way to know who actually received the message and who was left in the dark.
Texts and emails get buried
An urgent cancellation sits unread in an inbox full of promotions. Neither channel cuts through like a ringing phone — especially for older members.
No record of who was actually reached
You send the message and hope for the best. Without delivery tracking, there's no way to follow up with members who never got the word.
Built for how churches actually communicate in emergencies
Every feature solves a real problem congregations face when the message can't wait.
Record once, reach everyone
Tap the microphone, record your message in high-quality audio, and preview playback before sending. When it sounds right, one tap delivers it as a real phone call to every selected member.
Know exactly who was reached
Every call shows sent, failed, opted-out, and invalid counts in real time. Color-coded status badges — green for sent, orange for partial, red for failed — let you see delivery health at a glance.
Members control their preference
Members who prefer not to receive calls toggle a single setting in their profile. ChurchNET respects the opt-out automatically and reports opted-out counts in every delivery summary.
Every call logged, every message replayable
The call history screen shows your last 50 calls with status badges, recipient counts, duration, and play/pause controls so you can replay any past message without re-recording.
Two experiences, one app
Leaders send the call. Members receive it on any phone — no app required.

Connected to your church's communication hub
Audio calling isn't a silo — it's wired into the tools your church already uses.
Member Directory
Phone numbers flow directly from member profiles — always current, always E.164 formatted.
Communication Groups
Target a specific group for the call or broadcast to the entire congregation.
Messaging
Audio calling complements SMS and push notifications for true multi-channel communication.
Push Notifications
An FCM push notification is sent alongside every call so members with the app see it too.
Communication Logs
Every call is logged in the sent communications audit trail for leadership review.
Church Settings
Caller ID and audio calling availability are configured per-church by admins.
