I am a senior missionary serving in Siberia Russia. Our branches do not have Internet access or computers. I have Internet access in my apartment. Is there an app like LDS tools that I can manually enter member information for basic callings, lists, HT/ VT?

I have an iPhone, iPad and PC.

The only application that allows clerks and leaders to enter and update member information is Member and Leader Services (MLS), which runs on a PC. Under normal conditions, it is only installed on Church-owned computers when used with live membership data. Your mission president should be able to give you guidance as to whether MLS could be used in this situation; MLS connects with the area office to obtain and update information, so there would probably need to be contacted as well.
