Here is what SoapBox can do for your church in South Sudan, today.
Members without a smartphone
Some of your members have a basic phone. No smartphone? No apps? No internet? No problem. SoapBox has a place for them too.
Add them to your People list with a name and a mobile number. They need no app and no account.
To reach them by SMS, export your People list with phone numbers from the web app or Android, and send through your church's own SMS provider.
In your language
The app runs in English or Arabic, and the Bible reader has English translations and the New Arabic Version, free.
For your church
Your church starts free, for up to a hundred members. Share your invite code on WhatsApp, Facebook, by text message or email, straight from the app.
Light on data
Data costs money. Turn on Data-Light Mode, and photos inside posts wait until you tap them: always on Android and the web app, and on iPhone whenever you're on mobile data. Bible chapters you've already opened stay readable on your phone, even offline.
