What it does
Track your people
Add everyone you visit and tag each as a Return Visit, Bible Study, Initial Call, or Other. Keep their address, notes, and a full history of every visit.
Never miss a visit
Set how often to return (weekly, monthly, or a specific weekday) and Colporteur shows who's due. Optionally sync to Apple Reminders.
See them on the map
Add an address and each person appears on the map, color-coded by status. Tap Directions to navigate with Apple Maps.
Plan your month
Schedule visits on any day, set daily hour goals, and apply a weekly plan across a whole month. Switch to the year view for the big picture.
Log your hours
Record time by category (Ministry, LDC, Prison, or Other) and watch your progress toward monthly and yearly goals on the Home screen.
Home-screen widgets
Add widgets for your next due visit and your hours ring, so what matters is a glance away. Full dark-mode support.
Status at a glance
People and days are color-coded throughout the app and on the map:
Free, donations only
Colporteur is completely free, with no ads, no subscriptions, and no in-app purchases. It is built by one person in his spare time.
If it helps you in your ministry and you would like to give something back, a small donation keeps the project going and is genuinely appreciated. It is never expected, and every feature stays free for everyone either way.
