Reading

Read your way

Scroll on through the chapters, read one chapter at a time, or turn pages like a book. The bars slip away as you read, so the text has the whole screen.

  • Choose the Bible text’s font and size
  • Find any book, chapter or verse in a couple of taps
  • Continue reading exactly where you left off
The reader at Matthew 1, with a painting of Joseph's dream placed beside the verses it shows.

Marking

Highlight, note and bookmark

Tap a verse’s number to select it. Highlight or underline it in a choice of colours, add your own note, or bookmark it to come back to.

  • Your marks belong to the verse, so they show in every translation
  • Find them all again in your Library
  • Share a verse as a link, or copy it
Exodus 19:1 highlighted in dark mode, with the colour picker open to highlight or underline.

Study

Study when you want to

Select a verse for study notes, cross-references and the Hebrew or Greek behind it. The study panel sits below or beside the passage, out of the way until you need it.

  • Tyndale Open Study Notes and cross-references
  • The original Hebrew and Greek, verse by verse
  • Compare a verse across translations
Exodus 19:1 selected, with the study panel showing the Hebrew text and a Tyndale study note.

Paintings

See the Bible come to life

Oil paintings of the scenes sit beside the chapters and verses they show, and Bible stories on the home screen open straight at their passage.

  • David and Goliath, the Last Supper and many more
  • Turn pictures off if you prefer plain text
The Stories page with paintings of David and Goliath, Melchizedek, and the Last Supper.

Comfort

Light or dark, your colours

Read in light or dark mode, and make the app yours: pick the accent colours, the app’s font, and the Bible text’s font and size.
