iTunes Connect is closed for Christmas

  Updated   1 min read

Attention GoodBarbers, this year again, Apple made its Winter Holiday Schedule public. In case you didn't get the memo, please find the company's announcement below:
"As a reminder, we will not be accepting new app or app update submissions from December 23 to 27 (Pacific Time), so any releases should be submitted, approved, and scheduled in advance. Other iTunes Connect and developer account features will remain available."
As a result, GoodBarber Takes Care submissions requested after December 22nd will resume on December 28th. This also means that Apple's reviews of submissions or updates sent just before the 22nd will take a little while longer. Keep calm and be patient ;)

In the meantime, it remains possible to request a compilation of your iOS app, should you want to test it on your own device (with the ad hoc version), or, for instance, to request a certificates update (if they expired). Again, iTunes Connect's Winter Holiday schedule only impacts the submission or update of iOS apps to the App Store.

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.

Your HelloAsso events, memberships and donations now show up in your app

The short version. HelloAsso Events and HelloAsso Campaigns are two extensions of GoodBarber, the no-code app builder, that read an association's public forms on HelloAsso. HelloAsso Events fills a Calendar section with upcoming events, with their date, venue and prices, and a button to register in the app. HelloAsso Campaigns fills an Article section with memberships, donation forms and fundraisers: memberships open in the app, donations open in the phone's browser. You connect them with your association's HelloAsso API credentials. Both are free for Content apps: each section counts as one of the extensions included in your plan.HelloAsso is where many French associations already sell their tickets and collect their memberships. In February 2025, it passed two billion euros collected for associations since 2009, half of it in the previous 18 months, and it counts 376,000 registered associations, according to Le Journal des Entreprises on March 6, 2025. Here is how the two extensions play out for a neighborhood sports club.
