Groups, rebuilt — and photos for you and your group. • A new group page. Leaders can pin the prayer that needs everyone and post an announcement at the top, and you can see what's new since your last visit and filter by new, answered or commented. • Comment right from a card — or tap it to open the prayer with just your group's conversation. • Tap someone's name to see who they are, find their prayers in the group, or add them as a friend. • Give your group a photo, edit its name and description, and — if you started it — delete it. • Members: approve people who asked to join, appoint admins to help, and see when everyone joined. • Invite several friends to your group at once, or put a QR code on the screen for the whole room. • Invite links now stay open unless you choose an expiry — and everyone who asks to join still needs approval. • Add a profile photo: pick it, crop it, done. It shows next to your name for your friends and groups. • Keep a prayer just between you and God with the new "Only me" option, and set a reminder while you write it. "I am the vine; you are the branches." — John 15:5

A fresh Home, and gentle reminders to pray. • A new Home — ask for prayer or share a praise right from the top, see which of your groups has something new, and filter what needs prayer by friends or by group. • Daily prayer reminder — it's on at 8:00 AM. Pick your own time and days, or turn it off, in Settings › Reminders. • Remember the people you pray for — get a reminder with one prayer from your Prayer Log, each day or each week. • "How is this going?" — when one of your prayers hasn't had an update in a week, we'll gently ask. • A reminder for one prayer — tap the alarm icon on any prayer to be reminded once (say, the morning of a friend's surgery) or every day, in your own words. • Mute a busy group — tap the bell in the group. You'll still see everything in the app, and @mentions and join requests still reach you. One switch in Settings › Reminders turns notifications off entirely. • New here? A short Get started checklist helps you write your first prayer, find a group and invite a friend. • Join codes now add the dash as you type, unread badges are more accurate, and Settings is simpler and more fully translated.

• Tapping a notification about a new prayer in one of your groups now opens that group. Before, it could show "You no longer have access to this group" and put you back on Home. Your access was never actually affected — the prayer was there the whole time — but the message was alarming and the prayer harder to find. • Notifications are steadier. If one person's notification failed to send, it could quietly stop others in the group — and your friends — from being notified at all. Each person's notification is now independent of the rest.

Inviting people to your group just got easier — and safer. • Share your group however suits the moment — a short join code people can type, a link you can text, or a QR code to put on a screen when everyone's in the room. They're all the same code, so changing it retires all three at once. • You decide who comes in. Anyone using the code asks to join, and you — or an admin you appoint — approve or decline. A forwarded link or a photographed QR can't put a stranger among your group's prayers. • Codes can expire. Leave one open indefinitely for a friend, or set an hour for a QR on a projector at a gathering. • Share the load — a group leader can make trusted members admins, who can then approve join requests, remove a member and manage the invite code. Members can leave a group. • Approve people without leaving the group — requests sit at the top of the members list, and stay there until you act on them, so nothing gets missed. • Faithvine now speaks English, 简体中文 and Español — choose your language in Settings. • You're notified when a friend shares a new prayer, your unread badges are more accurate, and this release is steadier throughout.

Some prayers belong in more than one place. Now they can be. • Share with everyone who should see it — when you create a prayer or praise, choose your friends and any of your groups together. It appears in each one, so you no longer have to post the same request twice. • Every circle keeps its own conversation — comments stay in the group they were written in. Your Bible study doesn't see what your church group said, and vice versa. As the author, you see them all, clearly labelled by group. • Know exactly what's new — your Prayers tab now marks which prayer or praise has the new comment, instead of only lighting up the tab. • Groups now show praises alongside prayers, and your Home feed and Prayer Log show who shared each one. • Privacy and reliability improvements throughout. "I am the vine; you are the branches." — John 15:5

Prayer is only half the story. This release adds Praises. • Share a praise — when God comes through, say so. Tap + and choose New Praise to record what God has done, and let the people praying with you celebrate it. • Prayers and praises, together — both appear on your Home feed and in your Prayers tab. Filter with All, Prayers, or Praises when you want to see just one. • Same privacy, same circle — a praise carries the same visibility choice as a prayer: your friends, or one specific group. Your group is notified when you share one. • Comment on a praise — thank God together, right on the post. • Reliability and polish improvements throughout. "I am the vine; you are the branches." — John 15:5

Pray with the people who matter most — now it's easier to invite them in. • Invite friends with a link — share your personal invite link, and anyone who taps it can connect with you in a single tap. Building your prayer circle starts with the people you already trust. • Suggested for you — Faithvine surfaces people you may know through your shared groups and mutual friends, so finding your community is effortless. • Guided welcome — a quick, friendly walkthrough shows newcomers how to create a prayer, follow it over time, and connect with their group. • Clearer privacy — each prayer shows a badge for who can see it, so you always know whether it's shared with your friends or a specific group. • Reliability and polish improvements throughout. "I am the vine; you are the branches." — John 15:5

This release helps new members feel at home and makes every prayer's privacy clear at a glance. • Guided welcome — a quick, friendly walkthrough shows newcomers how to create a prayer, follow it over time, and connect with their group. • Clearer privacy — each prayer now shows a badge for who can see it, so you always know whether it's shared with your friends or a specific group. • Inside a group, your own prayers are now clearly marked, so it's easy to tell your requests from everyone else's. • A smarter app-icon badge that stays accurate and clears as soon as you've caught up. • Reliability and polish improvements throughout. "I am the vine; you are the branches." — John 15:5
