Prayer Rooms beta is ready for mobile testing

June 17, 2026 Back to changelog Prayer Rooms are now available as a beta experience from the mobile Connect page.

What’s New

  • Members can open Connect and enter the Prayer Rooms beta area.
  • Hosts can create audio or video prayer rooms and move directly into the room.
  • Rooms support speaker, listener, host, and moderator behavior.
  • Audio rooms show connected participants, mute state, and speaking state.
  • Video rooms use a compact meeting layout with participant controls.
  • Hosts can end a room and remove participants from the live session.
  • Rooms can be locked, scheduled, recurring, or configured with recording consent.
  • Recording and prayer clip workflows support consent-aware room settings.
  • Room giving can be enabled with a goal amount.
  • Native room giving is used when the church has a connected payment provider.
  • External giving links remain available as a fallback when native payment setup is not ready.
  • The room view can show tracked giving progress for native gifts.

Why This Matters

Prayer Rooms give churches a live ministry space for prayer, support, and hosted gatherings without requiring a separate meeting tool. The beta label helps teams test the experience carefully while audio, video, recording, and room giving continue through final QA.
