Things are really rolling at HisReach. We are working to design cool changes to make your experience more fun. Part of that is making HisReach more accessible to everyone. Don’t freak out…we haven’t created the HisReach “news feed”.

What we have done though is create usernames! “So what?” you might be saying. Well, usernames allow you to easily access your personal profile from anywhere on the web. All you have to do is log into your HisReach account, click the link that says “Set My Username Now”, pick a username between 5 and 16 characters, and you are done. Now you can access your personal profile from anywhere on the web by visiting http://www.hisreach.com/yourusername. For example, my username is ‘garrett’…I know…shocking, huh? So I can easily visit my profile by going to http://www.hisreach.com/garrett. Check it out…and don’t hesitate to add me as your friend…I like meeting new people!

“Woah Woah Woah, I didn’t sign up to have my profile visible to the entire world”, you might be saying. Trust us, we understand. That’s why we have now added privacy levels for your profile. There are three levels LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH. By default your account is set to HIGH privacy and will operate just as it always has since we created HisReach. None of your information will be visible to anyone that is not your friends. You can still access your personal profile like we described above, but users will have to be logged in and already be your friend before they can see your profile. The next level is MEDIUM privacy. This allows your “limited” profile to be visible to any member of HisReach only. People must have a HisReach account in order to see your profile. When they are viewing your profile they will see the “limited version”, meaning they will not see your prayer requests, your contact information, or your profile statistics…at least until they become your friend. The last level is LOW privacy. This allows anyone on the internet to see your “limited” profile without needing a HisReach account. Again, your “limited” profile does not share your prayer requests, your contact information, or your profile statistics.

We implemented the privacy in this way to encourage you to share your HisReach profile with your friends and make it as easy as possible to show someone. Don’t worry Moms and Dads, just make sure that your child’s profile is set to HIGH security and everything will remain totally confidential. We are always thinking of your kids safety and security first.

Lastly is our call for help…we need you, our members, to help keep HisReach alive. Part of staying alive is keeping HisReach active and exciting. Help us by inviting your friends to join HisReach with our invite feature. You are going to make HisReach great and we need your help. Don’t forget to send a friend an encouraging message or add to the discussion topic. We hope you love HisReach as much as we love serving you!

More great features on the way soon!
