SoapBox in Zimbabwe

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.

Your Bible, free

The Bible reader has the Shona Contemporary Bible, free, with many English translations.

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. Visitors who check in at the door land in Visitor Follow-up, and you can publish a free web page for your church.

Light on data

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. Chapters you've already read stay on your phone.

Growing?

Paid plans are discounted for churches in Zimbabwe.

Questions

Is the app in Shona or Ndebele?

Not today. The app is in English, and the Shona Contemporary Bible is in the reader.

EcoCash, OneMoney or card?

Does SoapBox send the SMS itself?

No. Your church sends through its own SMS provider, using the list you export from SoapBox.

Can I export the list from an iPhone?

Not today. Export it from the web app or the Android app.
