Sheltered Apps, LLC

We are very excited to announce that we have incorporated to form Sheltered Apps, LLC. This is a major step for us as we make our transition away from using PayPal to manage our directory subscriptions. Working with PayPal has been painful at times both for us and for our customers, and we hope to have a much better long-term solution ready in the near future.

At the same time, we have added Privacy Policy and Terms of Service documents to our website and signup process. These documents reflect the de facto standards that we have followed in the past, but make those standards clear and publicly available.

P.S. Look for some exciting mobile news in the near future.

New Feature: Statistics

We just released a new feature on our two larger subscription plans: Directory Statistics. Now, as a directory administrator, you can log on and see basic statistical information. The Statistics page is located under Settings, and contains information such as the number of members in your directory, the number of families, the number of active users, the number of children, and a variety of information about how complete your directory information is.

We hope this information will encourage you to promote your online directory with your members, and to use it more effectively.
