Alex, the italien guy ;)

  Updated   1 min read

Hi everyone!
 
My name is Alex, I’m an iOS developper, from Genoa (Italy) and I started to work for GoodBarber in September after 2 months of internship.
 
My passion for the development began when I was in high school. My parents gave me my first iPhone, and since I could not change the background image, I began to do research how to customize my phone. In this way I discovered the jailbreak ... and the rest is history.
 
Some people know me as MPow in the jailbreak scene, I love to make jailbreak tweaks and apps for iOS.
 
Right now I'm studying IT at the University of Genova, and I live and work in Ajaccio, for GoodBarber of course.

What am I doing at GoodBarber ?

What’s your job? What’s your hobby? What do you do when you’re not programming?

To answer I need to quote this tweet:
PS: you can find me on twitter @ManzoPower

Your Zeffy events and fundraisers now show up in your app

The short version. Zeffy Events and Zeffy Campaigns are two extensions of GoodBarber, the no-code app builder, that read a nonprofit's campaigns on Zeffy. Zeffy Events fills a Calendar section with upcoming events, one entry per date when an event runs on several dates, each with a button that opens its Zeffy ticketing page in the app. Zeffy Campaigns fills an Article section with donation forms, peer-to-peer fundraisers and memberships: memberships open in the app, donations open in the phone's browser. You connect them with your Zeffy API key. Both are free for Content apps: each section counts as one of the extensions included in your plan.Zeffy says more than 100,000 nonprofits have raised over $2 billion through its platform, in an article published on June 16, 2026. Here is how the two extensions play out for a youth theater company that sells its show and raises funds on Zeffy.

Your Church Center events now fill your church app's calendar on their own

The short version. Planning Center is an extension of GoodBarber, the no-code app builder, that fills a Calendar section with the events a church publishes on Church Center over the next six months. Recurring events appear once per date, at their public times, in the church's time zone, with their image, location and description. When an event has a sign-up, a button opens the form in the app. You connect it by signing in with a Planning Center Calendar administrator account: there is no key to copy. It is free for Content apps: each section counts as one of the extensions included in your plan.Many churches already run their calendar in Planning Center: it counts 78,000 active churches and 4 million active users, according to its About page, consulted in October 2026. Here is how the extension plays out for a church with a weekly service and a youth retreat.
