Design review
Observed choices, what they mean, and what still needs checking.
Access & cost
The sources reviewed do not establish the free and paid capability boundary.
Publisher information · flow checks pendingAttention & control
Reminder defaults, pause and missed-day recovery have not been verified.
Controls not yet verifiedTrust & care
Source boundaries, privacy and safeguards need further review. No app-wide assurance is implied.
Evidence incompleteOffers are dated iOS observations in USD where captured. Eligibility, country and platform can differ. Existing settings are not installation defaults.
Where the observed choices sit
Each row is one scoped observation of a specific flow, not a grade for the whole app.
No practice has been placed on the scale yet.
8 areas not reviewed yet
Works against: a choice subverts the person’s agency. Respects: it respects people and safeguards. Restores: a practice restores at a cost freely borne by the builder. Price, Christian branding or a free tier alone do not place an area. How we review.

Features and patterns
What the reviewed screens show this app doing. A missing entry does not mean a feature is absent.
Citations in AI answers
Mark 4:40 references appear in commentary cards with source links and an original-language section. A scrolled references view pairs Greek lexical entries with ranked cross-reference cards. Mark 4:24 opens a study interpretation with a newer-version notice and inline lexical citation. The scrolled verse study interleaves linked passages and Tyndale attribution before Historical Context. A study section discusses Greek wording with an inline Strong’s source chip. Reflection questions precede an empty journal, AI synthesis disclosure and report action.

The ten principle questions For your own design review
These questions guide discernment; they are not ten scores for this app.
- Keep the Word distinct, and teach it truly
- Can a reader always tell Scripture from our words, and our words from a machine’s?
- Never speak for God
- Would we put our own name under this sentence, or are we borrowing God’s?
- Design for the most vulnerable first
- Who is the most vulnerable person likely to use this today, and what will they see?
- Welcome before you ask, and guard what is told in confidence
- If a friend read everything we keep about this person, would the person be glad?
- Feed the flock, not on it
- Does this serve growth in faith, or only the usage numbers?
- Make room for rest, and say when it is enough
- Where does our product stop, and does it ever tell someone they have done enough?
- Send people to God and to one another
- When someone closes what we built, are they closer to God and to other people?
- Plant and water; leave the growth to God
- What would we stop measuring if we believed growth is God’s?
- Make it well, as an offering
- Would we offer this to God as it is, and could the person with the least sight, time or reading ease use it?
- Hold it with joy and trembling, before God and others
- Who outside the team holds us to account, and who prays for the people who use this?
Use this in your own work
Start with the observed choice, then ask how your own implementation serves people. The evidence is a design example, rather than an app-wide recommendation.
