Understand one another — and yourself. The directory now reveals the temperaments, conflict preferences, and worldviews across your group — how people think, value, and prioritize. We so easily assume others see the world as we do; this multicultural snapshot helps everyone understand each other, and themselves, a little better. "What My Day Is Like" is back. Even people who've known each other for decades discover something new through this. Share the ordinary moments of your daily life — and see how your group comes to really understand each other. Age range signals — keeping SmartGroups safe for younger users. SmartGroups now supports Apple's Declared Age Range feature. The app can read the general age range you've set on your device — never your birthdate, and nothing we store — so we can provide age-appropriate experiences. It's part of our ongoing commitment to protecting children and families in the community, and you're always in control of whether to share it. Sample surveys to get you started. Choose from ready-made surveys for different moments in your group's life — beginning, middle, and end of a study – and tailor them to your group. Discover your people’s expectations, where they are in their spiritual walk, and more. Labeled Bible links. Links to Scripture now show which passage they point to, so you know where you're headed before you tap. New Charter walkthrough video. A short guide to help your group set up its charter. Various bug fixes and stability improvements including the new sharing console.

NEW — Resolution Review: the best meetings end with "this week I will…" — and the best groups come back to it. Groups can now revisit what each member committed to at a previous meeting and encourage one another in actually living it out. Memory verses, upgraded: a cleaner memorization experience, practical memorization tips, and a library of beloved passages to choose from. Sharing Console (tablet mode): improvements that make it easier to share the gospel and Kingdom truths one-on-one with a friend. Your own group: members of a group on the free plan can now start a group of their own. Plus bug fixes and interface polish throughout.

This release helps your group go deeper together: • Group Passage Memory — shared memory verses so your group can grow in the Word together. • Group Goals — leaders can now say what they hope for their group and how people grow in it. • Charter Builder — major improvements for setting clear, shared group expectations. • Sharing Console (tablet) — a refreshed tool for sharing God's truth one-on-one, side by side. • Tutorial videos — short in-app guides for new users' first steps. • Bible Viewer bug fix, plus stability and performance improvements under the hood.

Bug fixes and stability improvements and an improved Sharing Console for tablets. Trust & Safety — Automated Content Moderation (Phase 1). This release completes the client-side scaffolding for our automated content-moderation pipeline. User-uploaded images and videos now carry standardized metadata so each item can be classified by Cloud Vision SafeSearch on our backend; high-confidence adult content is auto-quarantined for human review. Inappropriate-content reports submitted from inside the app are now also recorded in a structured moderation audit trail alongside our existing user-led flag pipeline. Automated scanning has been live in production since May 10, 2026; v5.3.4 brings the mobile and web apps in sync with that backend.
