Where to find temple recommend information

In the Member Tools app, under “What’s New”, it says that members can now view their temple recommend information (see attached screenshot). How do I view the information?

Look under More...

I’m still not seeing it. Where in More is the information?

In an iPad More.. Settings Temple Recommend Reminder

That is just the settings for the expiration reminder and does not show any recommend information.

The recommend information can be found in the [MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION] tab.

Note that you have to be at the "individual" level and not at the "household" level to see that tab.

I am still confused about where to find it.

• Find and tap your Household name.
• Tap the Household tab.
• Tap your individual name.
• Scroll over to the Membership Information tab. Just below the Full Name section is the Temple Recommend section which will show the recommend status and the recommend expiration date.

Note: Even if you are a household of one you still have to go through the steps provided.

I do not see this. Is there any reason I wouldn’t?

Hint: Yes, I do have a temple recommend.

Would it have anything to do with my age?

You might want to ask the stake clerk to look into it. He is the one who activates the recomend and matches it up to your Membership Record Number. If it hasn't been activated or it was activated under a different MRN that would explain it.

I'd also check that the MRN on the Church Account you are using matches your record. If the system thinks "you" are someone other than the person you're looking it, I'm not sure if it will show that information. I say that because I've seen cases where people use their spouse's account "because they see more" and then wonder why it doesn't function correctly for them.

Assuming we're talking about a regular recommend and not the limited ones used for youth, No.
I'm not sure if the limited ones show up.

Is there someone who knows if the Limited Use ones show up?

If your calling permits access then find that in [Reports] --> [Youth Recommend Status]

He's asking about seeing his own status in Member Tools.

This would come in handy if I happen to misplace my wallet like I did last month so I can see when it expires.

(Needless to say, I found my wallet on Saturday:))

Member tools app shows only your temple recommend status and expiry date. It does not have the bar code or temple recommend number. We need it whenever we visit a temple. I almost got late for a session because they were looking for a code or number to admit me in. Good thing that they are able to find it with the help of the temple clerk. I hope the number is also shown in our member tool app.

We received a letter from our temple letting us know that we should always bring our printed recommend, other forms are not acceptable.

The only time a temple uses a code or a number is when they scan your paper recommend as you enter the temple. If you do not have your actual recommend with you, the temple recorder will use your name, ward, and stake information to determine if you have a current recommend, or he will contact your bishop.

A copy or scan of a paper recommend on your smart phone is not valid for entry into the temple.

A pilot program is in progress in three temple districts that will allow you to display your temple recommend using Member Tools. But it is not the same as a copy or scan of the recommend. Personally, I hope the test is successful.

PLEASE I DIDN'T SEE MY TEMPLE RECOMMEND AS STATED.

Your temple recommend is a physical paper document that you carry with you and present at the recommend desk when you enter a temple. Unless you are participating in a pilot program, you will not see your actual temple recommend in Member Tools.

In Member Tools you will see the status of your recommend and you will see the month it expires. But you will not see the actual recommend.

First, go to the settings of member's app and the turn on the "Show Temple Recommend Status(or something)" then update or restart the app, and go to your membership information section in your profile

I can't find my temple recommend

Is it digital or paper?

If digital, it should be on the main app for members. I think it's called Member Tools or similar.

If paper, you might need to go through the interview process and get a new one.
