Software for Freemasons

Your Lodge,
In Every Member's Pocket

Brethren is a private, secure mobile app that brings your whole lodge together: events and RSVPs, private groups and lodge notices, all in one place. A modern experience for your members, and far less admin for your secretary.

What is Brethren

Everything Your Lodge Needs,
In One Private App

Built specifically for Masonic lodges, Brethren replaces scattered emails, spreadsheets and paper notices with a single, beautifully simple app that carries your lodge's own name, crest and colours.

Events & RSVPs

Publish meetings, festive boards and rehearsals in seconds. Members RSVP in a tap (with guest numbers where allowed), so your secretary always has an accurate count.

Announcements & Notifications

Send an instant notification for a new event, a published notice or an important update. Members stay informed without yet another group chat to keep up with.

Groups & Private Events

Scope meetings to officers, mentors or any group you choose. Members only see (and are only notified about) the events that apply to them.

Feedback & Suggestions

Members can raise a question or put a suggestion to the committee, and see a reply back in the app. Every voice is heard and nothing gets lost in a mailbox.

Why Lodges Choose Brethren

Run Your Lodge
Better, With Less Effort

Brethren isn't just an app for members; it's a quieter, more organised way to run the lodge behind the scenes.

Less Admin, Happier Secretary

One place to publish events, share documents and message members, with no more chasing RSVPs by email or reprinting summonses at the last minute.

More Engaged Members

A modern, genuinely useful app keeps members connected between meetings and helps newer brethren find their feet far faster.

Private & Secure by Design

Encrypted storage, granular access controls, multi-factor sign-in and absolutely no adverts or tracking. Your members' data stays private and under your control.

Made For You

Your Lodge's Own App

Not a generic tool with your logo bolted on. Brethren is tailored to your lodge and to the members who use it.

Carries Your Identity

Your lodge name, crest, logo and colours are applied throughout the app, so members feel at home the moment they open it.

One App, Many Lodges

Members who belong to more than one lodge simply switch between them in a tap, each with its own branding, events and notices, kept neatly apart.

On Phones They Already Own

Brethren is available now on iPhone, iPad and Android. Download it free from the App Store or Google Play. Members just activate against your lodge, with no new hardware needed.

How Brethren Keeps Growing

New Features, Every Release

Brethren keeps getting better for lodges and their members. Here is a look at what we have added so far, with plenty more on the way.

July 2026

Account Convenience

  • Change your own password. Members can update their password right in the app's Settings.
  • Secretary-led resets. Secretaries can send a member a secure password reset whenever one is needed.
  • Unread feedback at a glance. Secretaries get a new notification bell showing how many member messages are waiting.
June 2026

Feedback and Suggestions Grow

  • Feedback gets its own tab. Feedback moved into a dedicated tab with clear categories, so members can flag a bug, a suggestion, a content note or anything else.
  • A new Suggestions tab. A separate Suggestions tab arrived, letting members put ideas to the committee in their own right, after feedback had already been in the app.
  • See the committee's reply. Members can now see the status of what they have sent, along with the reply that comes back, so nothing feels like it disappears.
  • Replies land in your app. Secretaries can respond in a way that shows up directly in the member's app.
  • A tidier home screen. The app's main tabs were reorganised into a cleaner, easier layout.
May 2026

Groups, Private Events and a Fresh New Dashboard

  • Events meant for you. Members only see the events aimed at them, with a small label when an event is limited to a particular group.
  • Groups for secretaries. Secretaries can create named groups, such as Officers, and target events and notifications to just that group.
  • A redesigned secretaries' dashboard. The companion admin console was rebuilt with a modern, easier control-room look, clearer navigation and a choice of light or dark theme.
May 2026

Brethren Launches on iPhone, iPad and Android

  • One app for every lodge. Add each of your lodges and switch between them in a tap, with each lodge's events, notices and branding kept neatly apart.
  • Your lodge's own look. After sign-in the app takes on your lodge's name, crest and colours.
  • Events and RSVPs. See what is coming up and RSVP in a tap, bringing guests where the event allows.
  • Push notifications. Lodge announcements arrive straight to members' phones, and a tap opens the right place.
  • Send feedback to your committee. Members can share feedback with the lodge team right from the app.
  • Fast, secure sign-in. Unlock with your fingerprint or face, with optional multi-factor sign-in for extra protection.
  • Simple set-up. Activate with your lodge number and confirm the lodge name shown, with no fiddly typing.
  • A dashboard for secretaries. A companion web console launches alongside the app for managing members, events, notifications and branding.
