Hey Product Hunt, I’m Kiel, founder of RockReader. I built RockReader because I wanted Bible reading to feel less isolated and less performative. Most Bible apps are great for reading, but they are not built around reflection, journaling, and real community. RockReader helps people read Scripture daily, write SOAP-style journal entries, use simple study tools, and share reflections with trusted friends or small groups. Entries are private by default, and the goal is not another noisy social feed. The goal is steady discipleship. I’d love feedback from this community, especially on onboarding, clarity, and whether the product makes sense to people who are not already deep into Bible study habits.

How does the private sharing with friends or small groups actually work, is it built into the app or do you have to connect something like a church management tool?

@remzieze2 Great question! It’s built directly into RockReader, there’s no church management software or third party integration required. You can create a private group, invite friends or your small group, and choose to share your journal entries with that group. The goal is to make it easy to encourage one another around Scripture without posting everything publicly. We wanted the technology to stay out of the way so the focus stays on God’s Word and authentic conversation.

How does the private sharing feature actually work for small groups? Like, can my whole group see each other's entries in one shared space, or is it more like sending individual notes?

@gkhangzeyy3cr That’s exactly how it works. Each private group has its own shared space where members can see the journal entries that others choose to share with the group. It’s designed more like a shared Bible study than sending individual notes back and forth. We wanted to recreate the experience of showing up to a small group already having spent time in Scripture, then learning from each other’s observations and applications throughout the week.

The SOAP journal flow feels really thoughtful, especially how it nudges you through Scripture, observation, application, and prayer without feeling like a rigid form. Whoever designed the small group sharing flow clearly cares about real community, not just features on a list.

@cihan928096 Thank you, that means a lot. That was actually one of the core design goals from the beginning. There are plenty of apps that help you consume content. I wanted RockReader to help people engage with Scripture and then encourage one another through what they’re learning. If the technology fades into the background and genuine community takes center stage, then I think we’ve accomplished something worthwhile.
