Pattern apps help people follow Jesus, gather others, make disciples, and multiply—in their own language and context.
Each capability can be as simple or as complete as a ministry needs.

In the heart language of the people who use it.
An app can be built entirely around one community — its language or dialect, its images, and the content its own leaders choose.
A single app can open into separate paths — one for each language, or one for each purpose, such as small groups, training, youth, children, and family.

Pattern for Life is our sample app. Open it and look around.
Each path can be a language or a purpose, with its own content and look, still part of one app.
Low bandwidth, offline use, shared devices, multiple languages, and distribution that fits the setting.
Built to stay usable where connections are slow, patchy, or costly.
Content people can keep using when there is no connection at all.
Public app stores where that's right, or private and alternative Android distribution where it isn't.
For multilingual communities, and for families or groups who share one affordable phone.
The app, its content, and its lessons move person to person and group to group, the way disciple-making already does.
Tap share and choose the chat app people already use to send it to a friend or a whole group.
Pass it straight from one phone to another when you're together.
Send the app itself so a friend has it on their own phone.
Pass along a story, a passage, a song, or a video.
Send a whole lesson to a group before you meet.
