I'd also ask for the option for the territory servant to be able to assign territories from the app. I don't know how they gave this option: 1) to elders (and it's fine), 2) to servants, 3) to pioneers, and 4) to all brothers. But they never thought it would be more appropriate to give the territory servant this option. Hugs.

 

The territory assignment works via NWS Mobile. However, it is still in beta. The territory servant can assign territories on the go using the app.

 

In our congregation we have also defined in the NWS Desktop certain territories for JW Publisher as “self‑assign territories,” which the elders and ministerial servants—and, when needed, pioneers in the congregation—can take for themselves, for a group, for their family, or for the entire congregation. However, this quickly becomes hard to keep track of. That is why we are looking forward to the NWS Mobile version once it exits the beta stage.

  We have a weekly cleaning schedule. In the app It shows which group cleans during the midweek meeting but it shows none for the weekend meeting, which should be the same group that cleans midweek.   

Has anyone found a workaround for this bug? I did some tweaking and sent app data.  I changed the schedule option dropdown from Weekly to Meeting. Then I entered a group for weekly cleaning and the same one for after meeting cleaning. We have scheduled for a few months but only three show up in 4.0.8 NWP app and those are still incorrect.  I tried to refresh app data. None of these things have worked.  All of our brothers are on the latest NWS version.

I don't have an "Edit" option for some reason. In my post just above I should have said "only 3 weeks show up" - that is out of several months scheduled in NWS.

Our 'edit' button only lasts about 10-15 minutes after you post.

 

The only ones who can edit after that time-period are moderators.
