Instant messaging -
The instant messaging app
built for churches
Built for Every Ministry
Flexible Channels: Create dedicated spaces for whole-church announcements, private volunteer teams, or weekly Small Groups. Turn iKnow Chat on for individual teams/groups/circles.
Temporary Event Chats: Quickly spin up chats for retreats, Alpha courses, or holiday clubs, then delete them when finished.
Secure & Compliant
Total Privacy: Members chat safely without sharing phone numbers, usernames or personal contact details.
Automated Access: Permissions sync directly with your iKnow Church database. Add or remove a member in iKnow Church or to a team/ group or circle and their chat access updates automatically.
Better Safeguarding: Move ministry conversations away from personal apps and under your church's governance and keep GDPR compliant in UK hosted data centres. If a person leaves the church then their access to all previous messages is removed rather than then still being accessible through personal messaging apps like WhatsApp.
Block Users: If it is ever required, then you can easily block a user from accessing iKnow Chat.
Other Core Features
Media: Share photos of events instantly
Push Notifications: real time notifications ensuring no one misses out on their team/group or church chat
Zero Extra Admin: Seamlessly integrated into the iKnow ecosystem - no new accounts or passwords required.
iKnow Chat can be turned on and viewable in the iKnow Church App.
