Community Guidelines

Effective date: 13 November 2026

Smible is a place to grow in faith and understanding, together. These guidelines apply to everything people share in Smible: groups and their names, the prayer wall, the friends feed, comments, shared verses, the names people choose, and AI answers from Puff. They form part of our Terms of Use. You agree to them before you first create, join or post in a group, and you must be 13 or older to use these features.

Zero tolerance for objectionable content

There is no place in Smible for objectionable content or abusive users. We do not allow content or behaviour that:

• Is hateful or demeaning towards people because of their race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, disability or age
• Harasses, bullies, threatens, shames or intimidates anyone, including gossip about a person
• Is sexually explicit, or sexualises anyone, and especially anything involving children
• Promotes or glorifies violence, terrorism, self-harm or suicide
• Is illegal, or encourages illegal activity
• Shares someone else’s private information (such as a phone number or address) without their permission
• Impersonates a person, church or organisation, or misleads people on purpose
• Is spam, scams, chain messages or unwanted advertising
• Infringes someone else’s copyright or other rights

Respectful disagreement about faith and theology is welcome. Personal attacks are not. Sharing hard things honestly, such as illness, grief, doubt or struggles, is welcome too: that is what a prayer wall is for.

Where these guidelines apply

• Groups and the prayer wall. Group members see each other’s names, lesson activity and prayer requests. You can post a prayer request anonymously; other members then see “Anonymous”, but our moderators can still see who wrote it.
• Friends feed. People you share a group with see your lesson and streak activity (if “Share my activity with friends” is on) and verses you choose to share, and can react and comment.
• Names. The name you choose in Settings is shown to your groups, your church and your league. Don’t use it to impersonate anyone, and don’t put email addresses or links in it.
• Puff’s answers. Puff is an AI and can get things wrong. Use Report on any answer that is wrong, misleading, harmful or offensive.

An automatic check before anyone sees it

Before anyone else sees them, prayer requests, comments, shared verses, group names and chosen names are checked by an automated filter. The text (not your account details) is sent to our AI partner for that check. If it breaks these guidelines, or the check can’t be completed, it isn’t posted and you are asked to change it. The filter can make mistakes in both directions, so reporting still matters.

Report and Block

• Report: tap ••• on any prayer request, feed item or comment, or Report under any Puff answer, and choose a reason. What you report is hidden from you straight away, and our team reviews it. The person you reported isn’t told who reported them.
• Block: tap ••• on someone’s post and block them. You and they no longer see each other’s posts, comments or feed activity, and they are hidden from you in leagues.
• You can also report a concern by emailing hello@atmond.com.

How we handle reports

1. Every report goes to our moderation team.
2. We review reports within 24 hours.
3. If something breaks these guidelines, we act within that time. For content people post, we remove it for everyone, and warn the person who posted it or remove their account. For AI answers, we fix the instructions and safeguards the AI works with.
4. Anyone who posts objectionable content, or abuses other people, may be removed from Smible permanently.

If someone is in danger

If a prayer request or comment suggests someone may be in danger, such as thoughts of suicide or self-harm, or being abused or unsafe at home, we don’t remove it. The person who wrote it is shown where to get help straight away, the group’s leader is asked to check in (for prayer requests), and our team is alerted.

Smible is not an emergency or crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services (999 in the UK, 911 in the US, 112 in the EU). If you’re struggling, you can talk to someone any time: in the UK call Samaritans free on 116 123; in the US call or text 988.
