Groups and Community

  • No theological forum in v1.
  • Gamification in opt-in small groups only — see Motivation.
  • Group discovery: invite link / code only (no geolocation).
  • Church groups when user is linked to a church.
  • Individual groups users form themselves (friends, accountability).
  • Geolocation-based discovery: deferred; may add later as opt-in (e.g. coarse region), not required for v2 launch.

Cross-church groups: no (Product Scope).

When mentorship ships, async chat is in-app (Messaging) — not SMS, RCS, or iMessage as the product channel.

For minors, church mentor assignments require guardian approval (any linked guardian; split households: either parent for now) before any pairing or chat is active (Identity and Access).
