Will I lose my data if I delete or reinstall the app?

Yes. Everything in Living Sent — your Oikos Map, journal entries, Multiplication Map, and progress — is stored only on your device, not in the cloud. Deleting the app or switching phones without a device backup will erase your data.

Back up your iPhone regularly through iCloud or Finder/iTunes to protect against this.

Is my information private?

Yes. Living Sent doesn’t collect, transmit, or store any of your data on our servers. Nothing you enter ever leaves your device. See our full Privacy Policy for details.

Notifications aren’t showing up — what do I check?

Make sure notifications are enabled for Living Sent in your iPhone’s Settings app (Settings → Notifications → Living Sent), and that Focus or Do Not Disturb modes aren’t silencing them.

Do I need an account to use the app?

No. Living Sent works fully offline with no sign-in required.

Is there a cost to use the app?

No, Living Sent is completely free with no in-app purchases.

How does this relate to the SENT book and Storyline Study?

Living Sent is built as a companion tool to the discipleship framework taught in the SENT book and Storyline’s Living Sent teaching. The app walks you through practicing what those resources teach — it doesn’t replace them.

For more context on what “sent” means day to day, read Find Your Mission Field. For deeper training on the skills the app asks you to practice — like sharing your testimony and the gospel outline — the SENT book is where that’s taught in full.
