Other readers’ notes related to a verse
“Related to Johannes 3:25” lists public notes from other readers (names and photos blurred here): each quotes the passage in a different translation, CSB or NIV, with the reader’s own note below and a menu for more actions.

Design takeaway
Other readers’ notes can open a passage up, and they are interpretation. Label them as others’ words, show the translation each quotes, and say how they are moderated.

Reading together
From the same passage on the same day with nothing shown, through a guide for meeting in person, a group with a leader and a plan with friends, to a feed of friends’ activity and a public thread on the verse: decide what the others see of each person’s reading, and who looks after what is said.
