Install BibleGPT+

The landing screen has three big buttons — Bible Reader, Bible Study, and BibleGPT+ (chat) — plus the Verse of the Day and your reading-streak widget. Use it as your jumping-off point each day.

Every tool lives in the sidebar, grouped by purpose (Reading, Study Tools, Reference, My Stuff, Create, Settings). On phones, tap the ☰ hamburger menu to open it. Use the "Find a tool…" box at the top to filter the list by name. Group headers collapse with the ▾ chevron.

Tap Sign in in the sidebar and choose Google or Apple. Once signed in, your bookmarks, highlights, notes, prayers, topics, sermons, lessons, quiz scores, memory progress, reading plans, and appearance settings are saved to your account and follow you to any device. Apple's private-relay email is supported.

Open the appearance panel from the sidebar (🌙 / ☀️). Switch between Dark and Light mode, pick one of 8 accent colors (or enter a custom hex), and set the font size to Small, Medium, or Large. Changes apply instantly; "Reset to defaults" restores the originals. Settings sync to your account when signed in.

Tap ⛶ Full Screen in the sidebar for distraction-free reading. It hides browser chrome on desktop, tablet, and phone where the browser allows it.

Open Bible Reader, choose a book and chapter, and the text appears with verse numbers. Use the Version dropdown to switch between ESV, NIV, NLT, NKJV, KJV, ASV, BSB, and YLT — your choice is remembered, syncs across devices, and follows you throughout the app: the Verse of the Day, Daily Devotional, Bible Study chapter text, Guided sessions, and Topics all display in your chosen version (chapter audio always plays the ESV recording). NIV, NLT, and NKJV are licensed texts served live via API.Bible with the publisher's copyright shown under each chapter; they need a connection (no offline reading for those three) and aren't used by the AI study tools, which work from the ESV. Move between chapters with the arrow buttons (or the ← → arrow keys). Tap a verse to open its menu — highlight it, bookmark it, add a note, share it as an image, or open the ✨ "Why is this verse in the Bible?" context panel. Below each chapter, the Explore chips open a 🧘 Guided session or jump to the Study Guide, Quiz, Cross References, Church Fathers, Verse Comparison, or Greek & Hebrew — already pointed at the chapter you're reading. Underneath those, an In <book> <chapter> row shows what is actually in the passage you're reading: the characters and places on the map named in the text, plus any covenants, parables, miracles, messianic prophecies, memorials, Holy Spirit passages and Sermon on the Mount units that fall in it. Tap any of them to jump straight to that study. The same row appears under the Study Guide, and nothing is shown for a chapter with no connections. The links run both ways: if you or anyone in your groups has written a lesson covering the passage — or naming that person or place — it appears there under Taught in — and the same row shows on a parable, miracle, prophecy, memorial, Holy Spirit passage or Sermon on the Mount unit, pointing back at the lessons that teach it. You only ever see your own lessons and those shared with a group you belong to. Every chapter you open is cached for offline reading — or tap Download on the "Read offline" bar to save the whole ESV at once. Study material travels too: any study guide, commentary, Church Fathers reading, quiz, character study or collection page you have opened stays readable with no signal.

On the Bible Study page, choose a book and its overview opens straight away — before you pick a chapter. You get the author and date (with an honest note where either is debated), the original audience, what prompted the book, its genre and how that should change the way you read it, a clickable outline of the whole book, the themes to watch for, how it points to Christ, the verse that holds it together, the people and places in it, where to start if you only read one chapter, practical advice on reading this particular book well, the hard parts faced honestly rather than skipped, what the Church Fathers made of it, what to read alongside it, and a prayer. Tap any section of the outline to drop straight into that chapter’s study — the overview is the way in, not a detour. You can also reach it with 📖 Book Overview from the Bible Reader, share it, or assign it to a group.

Tap a verse and pick a color — yellow, green, blue, or pink — to highlight it; tap clear to remove. Highlights show inline in the text and sync across your devices.

Tap the ✎ icon on any verse to write a private note; it stays attached to that verse. Each chapter also has a chapter note card at the top for broader thoughts. Notes save automatically and sync everywhere.

Press Listen to hear a chapter read aloud. A floating toolbar gives you play/pause, skip ±10 seconds, a seek bar, playback speed (0.8×–2×, pitch preserved), volume, and a 🌙 sleep timer (tap to cycle 15/30/45/60 minutes — playback stops when it fires). Turn on continuous play to roll automatically into the next chapter, and build an "Up next" queue. Tap 🎧 Listening Playlists for curated sequences — the Gospels, Psalms of Comfort, Passion Week, the Sermon on the Mount, Acts, and Proverbs. The ⬇ button shows what you already have: a tick once every chapter is saved, or a count while it is partway there. Every chapter you play is saved for offline replay, and your spot is saved — a Resume button picks up where you left off. You can also save audio before you need it: the ⬇ button on a lesson, or on any lesson or reading plan in your group's Studies list, downloads that study's chapters for offline listening. It tells you the rough size first, shows progress as it goes, and can be cancelled mid-way. A chapter nobody has listened to yet has to be generated first, so the first download of a long plan can take a few minutes — anything still generating is reported, and running it again shortly afterwards picks up the rest.

Open Verse Comparison, choose a book, chapter, and verse, and tap Compare to see the same verse in ESV, KJV, ASV, BSB, YLT, NIV, NLT, and NKJV side by side — all real published translation texts (the last three licensed via API.Bible), with a short AI-written note explaining the key wording differences.

Open Search and type a word, phrase, or reference. Results show the reference and verse text with your term highlighted. Your own writing is searched at the same time — notes, highlights, bookmarks, lessons, sermons, topics, prayers and ebenezers appear above the verses under "In your own material", so searching for grace finds both the passages and the evening you wrote about them. Tap any of those to open it where it lives. Narrow results with the Testament and Book filters, and use Show more results to page through. Switch to ✨ Meaning (AI) mode to search by idea instead of exact words — ask "verses about being anxious at night" and get real verses with a note on why each one speaks to your question. Tap the ⭐ on any result to save the verse into a Topic.

Open Bible Study and pick a chapter to generate a full study guide in expandable sections: Historical Context, the full chapter text, Key Verses, Themes, Discussion Questions, Application, Cross References, Theological Commentary, Church Fathers Commentary, and Places in this chapter. Add a chapter note, jump to any verse by tapping its reference, and export to Word or PDF (⬇ Word / 🖨 PDF) or share it. Below the guide, Explore chips take the same chapter into a 🧘 Guided session, the Reader, a Quiz, Verse Comparison, or Greek & Hebrew.

Tap 👶 Explain it to me like I am 10 in the reader or study view for a kid-friendly version: a big idea, the story in plain language, words to know, a verse to remember, a short prayer, and an FYI for parents. You can read it aloud, copy it, or share it.

Open BibleGPT+, pick a voice to answer (Apostles like John, Paul, Peter; Old Testament figures like Moses, David, Joshua; the historian Josephus; or the Church Fathers), choose a response length, and ask your question. Answers stream in and can be played as audio, copied, or shared — and any Scripture reference in an answer is tappable, jumping straight to that chapter in the Reader. The History tab keeps your recent questions; Clear History wipes it.

Open Cross References and choose a chapter to see related passages across Scripture, color-coded by type — quotation, thematic, fulfillment, or parallel — each with context and a tappable verse link.

In Bible Study, pick a book and chapter and tap ⚖️ Compare Interpretations to see how the major Christian traditions — Reformed, Wesleyan-Arminian, Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Baptist / Free Church — read the passage. Each view is stated fairly at its strongest, with the key Scriptures it rests on and where the traditions agree. You can also tap ⚖️ on any verse in the Reader to compare interpretations of that single verse.

Open Gospel Harmony to see the life of Christ laid out across Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John side by side. Each event shows its parallel passage in all four Gospels (or a dash where an account omits it) — tap any reference to open it in the Reader.

Open Greek & Hebrew for a Strong's concordance lookup and a word-by-word interlinear view showing the original word, transliteration, English meaning, and parsing details, plus related words. In any Strong's entry, tap "View every occurrence" to list every verse in Scripture that uses that Greek or Hebrew word — tap a reference to jump straight to it in the Reader. Original-language word data is from STEPBible.org (Tyndale House, Cambridge), used under CC BY 4.0.

Open Characters and choose a biblical figure for a life overview, key passages, their character arc, and related people you can tap to explore — along with an AI-generated portrait. A Connections row links to the 📜 covenants they're part of and the 🗺️ places from their story, and verse references now open the Reader at the exact verse.

Open Subjects, type a theme like "grace" or "fear," and tap Study Subject. The app researches relevant passages across Scripture and synthesizes them into one study you can share.

Open Quiz, pick a chapter, and tap Start Quiz for auto-generated questions — a mix of multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank (type the missing word). Your best score per chapter and attempt history are saved so you can track progress and retake. On the results screen, tap 🧠 Memorize Key Verses to drop the chapter's key verses straight into your Scripture Memory deck.

Open Prayer, choose a chapter, optionally add an intent or topic, and tap Craft Prayer for a Scripture-grounded prayer. Save prayers to revisit, copy, or share them later.

At the top of the Prayer screen, keep a personal list of what you're praying for. Tap + Add to record a request with an optional note and category (e.g. Family, Work, Health), mark it Answered ✓ when God moves (or Reopen it), and delete requests you no longer need. Filter the list with the All / Active / Answered pills — the answered view doubles as a gratitude journal. Tap the 🔔 in the header to set a daily prayer reminder at a time you choose. Your list syncs across devices, and requests you add offline sync when you reconnect.

Open Devotional for a short daily reflection on a featured verse, with a browsable 30-day archive. Devotionals are cached for offline reading.

Open Biblical Timeline to walk from Creation to Revelation. Filter by era, expand any event for details, and tap key figures or Scripture references to jump straight to them.

Open Genealogy for an interactive family tree from Adam to Jesus. Tap nodes to navigate the lineage and use the + on a leaf to have AI suggest additional family members (shown with a dashed border). Saved expansions sync to your account. Once a tree is loaded, use 🖼️ Save as image to download it as a PNG or 🖨️ Print / Save as PDF for a print-friendly copy.

Open Names of God for a grid of divine names — each with the original-language form, meaning, supporting Scripture, and generated imagery. Tap a card for the full entry; share any name.

Open Covenants to study every biblical covenant — the parties, terms, time period, supporting Scripture, and how each is fulfilled in Jesus. A Connections row links the 👤 people party to the covenant and the 🗺️ places in its story, so you can hop straight to a character study or the map.

Open Maps for a zoomable atlas with place markers color-coded by era, plus twelve step-by-step journeys, each linked to Scripture — Abraham and Jacob, the Exodus route, Joshua's conquest, the Ark's captivity in Philistia, David's flight from Saul, Elijah from Carmel to Sinai, Paul's three missionary journeys, his voyage to Rome, and the seven churches of Revelation in the order John addresses them. Tap any place for a Then & Now profile: what it's called today and which country it's in, its role through the biblical story, what happened to it in the centuries since, and what a visitor would find at the site now — plus the 👤 people connected to it. Timeline events show a 🗺️ chip that jumps to the event's location on the map.

Open Nephilim Study for a focused deep dive into the biblical references to the Nephilim, with the Hebrew text, scholarly analysis, and cross-connections.

Open Sermon on the Mount to work through Matthew 5–7 as one sermon rather than three chapters. It is divided into 23 units — the Beatitudes, salt and light, each of the six “you have heard it said” sayings, giving, the Lord’s Prayer, fasting, treasure, anxiety, judging, the narrow gate, the two builders and more — plus an overview of the whole discourse. Each unit gives you the passage in the ESV, where it sits in the sermon’s argument, what the first hearers would have heard, a full exposition, how it works as both law and gospel, how it points to Christ, the Greek behind its key words, its Old Testament roots, how six traditions read it (each stated fairly), the Church Fathers, the ways it is commonly misread, questions for discussion, a verse worth memorising, and a prayer. The Beatitudes and the Lord’s Prayer are broken down line by line. From any unit one tap takes you to the reader, the chapter study, guided reading, the interlinear at that exact verse, all eight translations, the Church Fathers, cross references, your memory deck (or all eight Beatitudes at once), the chapter quiz, a new lesson, a sermon draft, a child-friendly explanation, the audio, your prayer list, your journal, the timeline, or your study group.

Open Miracles of Jesus for the miracles the Gospels record, in five groups: power over nature, healings, deliverance from demons, raising the dead, and the Resurrection. There are 37 miracles — the number is checked, and lists claiming 38 usually count the official’s son and the paralytic at Bethesda twice — and the Resurrection is included at the end as the sign all the others were pointing at, even though it was done to Jesus rather than by him. Each study gives you the passage in the ESV, what actually happened and to whom, the setting, the first-century world behind it (what the disease cost socially, the trade, the geography), what it reveals about Jesus, what the sign means, who was there and how they responded, the Old Testament it echoes, the Greek behind its key words, the Church Fathers, how to live it, questions for discussion, a verse worth carrying, and a prayer. Where more than one Gospel tells it, you also get a note on how the accounts fit together and what each writer adds. From any miracle one tap takes you to the reader, the chapter study, the interlinear, all eight translations, the Church Fathers, your memory deck, a child-friendly explanation, the audio, your prayer list, your journal, or your study group — with Connections chips to the people involved and the town it happened in.

Open Messianic Prophecies to follow the promise of the Messiah from the Old Testament page to the day it came true. There are 55 of them, in eight themes: his line and lineage, his birth and childhood, the forerunner and the time, his character and mission, his reception and rejection, his betrayal and trial, his crucifixion, and his resurrection and reign. A note on the number: there is no agreed complete set — published counts run from 44 to over 400 because they measure different things, and the charts that claim 70 usually list Genesis 3:15 three times and split Psalm 22 across seven rows. This section counts one entry per distinct Old Testament passage that the New Testament itself applies to Jesus, so Psalm 22, Psalm 69 and Isaiah 53 are one study each with all their detail inside. Every entry shows you the promise and its fulfilment side by side, the passage in the ESV, what it meant to its first hearers before anyone thought of Jesus, what kind of fulfilment it is (a direct prediction, or a pattern the New Testament sees completed — stated plainly rather than glossed over), how it came true, a point-by-point table of each detail and where it landed, the Hebrew behind its key words, the Church Fathers, questions for discussion, a verse worth carrying, and a prayer. From any prophecy you can read it in context, open cross references, compare eight translations, open the interlinear, hear it read aloud, add it to Scripture Memory, save the prayer, journal on it, or share it with a group.

Open Holy Spirit for every place the Spirit moves in Scripture — 86 studies in six groups: his work in the Old Testament, in the life of Jesus, in Acts, his titles, his symbols, and his works, gifts and fruit. Each study gives you the passage in the ESV, what happens, the setting, what it shows about the Spirit, where it sits in the whole story, how it points to Christ, the Hebrew or Greek word behind it, other passages that connect, what the Church Fathers saw in it, how to live it, questions for discussion, a verse worth carrying, and a prayer. From any study you can read it in context, open the interlinear at that verse, hear it read aloud, add the verse to Scripture Memory, get a child-friendly explanation, save the prayer to your prayer list, reflect on it in your journal, or share it with a group. These studies are written to be devotional: they stay with what the text says and what it asks of you, and deliberately leave the long-running arguments alone.

Open Jesus' Parables for the complete collection of the parables — filter by theme (the Kingdom, Lost & Found, Grace & Forgiveness, Prayer, Stewardship, Readiness & Judgment, Discipleship, Love & Neighbor). Each parable opens a full study: an AI-painted scene, the passage text in your preferred version, the big idea, who Jesus told it to, first-century background, what each story element represents, themes, theological commentary, Church Fathers readings, application, discussion questions, cross references, and related parables — with Connections chips to the people and places involved.

Open Ebenezers for the Bible's memorials of God's faithfulness — the Ebenezer stone, the rainbow, the Passover, the twelve stones at Gilgal, the Lord's Supper, and more, filterable by type. Each opens a full study like the Parables: an AI-painted scene, the passage in your preferred version, what God had done, why ancient Israel built memorials, what each element represents, themes, theological commentary, Church Fathers on remembrance, and how to practice remembrance today. Then raise your own stones: the My Ebenezers journal records the moments God came through in your life — title, story, date, and an optional verse — synced to your account so you can reread them whenever you need to remember His goodness.

Open Church Fathers, pick any book and chapter, and tap Read Commentary to see how the early church read it — quotes and interpretation from 3–6 fathers per chapter, with era and tradition noted. Below, the Meet the Fathers directory introduces ten major fathers from Ignatius to Gregory the Great; tap 💬 Ask on any of them to put your question to the Church Fathers voice in BibleGPT+ Chat.

Open Sermons, add one or more passages, optional notes, and set the length, style, and audience. Generate a full sermon — opening hook, introduction, main points, application, and closing prayer. Edit inline, regenerate, save to your library, and share by link (recipients can save their own copy). The ⚡ Quick Tools card at the top generates just the pieces — illustrations, discussion questions, or application points — for any passage or theme, with one-tap copy.

Open Teach to build a lesson from several passages, organize it into a lesson plan, and share it by link or QR code (it auto-loads for whoever opens it). One tap turns a lesson into a Deep Dive — a combined study guide across all the readings with themes, key verses, and synthesis commentary — which you can export to Word or PDF. Every lesson also gets a 🔗 Related in BibleGPT+ card that links out to everything else in the app touching those chapters — the characters and places on the map named in the text, plus any covenants, parables, miracles, messianic prophecies, memorials, Holy Spirit passages and Sermon on the Mount units that fall in the same passages, along with the book overview and chapter quiz. Tap any of them to jump straight to that study. The ⚡ Quick Tools card at the top generates illustrations, discussion questions, or application points for any passage. Any lesson can also have its own 🎨 artwork: press Generate image in the lesson and an illustration is created from the lesson's title, readings, and (if you've run one) its Deep Dive. It's optional — nothing is generated unless you ask — and once made it's saved with the lesson, so it shows up for everyone who opens it, on your My Lessons list, in your group's Studies tab, and in the Word/PDF export. Only the person who made the lesson can replace the picture.

Tap the ☆ star on any verse, chapter, study, character, name, covenant, or subject to bookmark it. Open Bookmarks to see them all, sorted by newest, oldest, or alphabetically.

Open Study Journal for one timeline of everything you've made — highlights, notes and bookmarks, plus every lesson, sermon, topic, prayer and ebenezer you've created — newest first. Search across all of it from the box at the top: type a word and the stream narrows to the entries containing it, wherever you wrote it. Matches are highlighted so you can see why an entry came up. Filter by type or by book, tap any entry to jump straight to it — a verse opens in the reader, a lesson opens in Teach, a sermon in Sermons — and export the whole journal to Word or PDF.

At the top of the Study Journal, tap + New to write a structured entry using a proven study method: SOAP (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer) or inductive OIA (Observe, Interpret, Apply), or freeform. Add the passage and a title, use 💡 Prompt me for guiding questions, and edit or delete entries anytime. They sync across your devices, save offline too, and are included when you export the journal to Word or PDF.

Open Groups (My Stuff) to create Bible study groups and invite anyone with a link or QR code — people can belong to as many groups as they like. Each group opens on Studies. Leaders can assign almost anything in the app — a Teach lesson, a reading plan, a parable, a covenant, a character study, a name of God, an ebenezer, or one of your topics — by pressing the 👥 button wherever that study lives; each assignment gets its own discussion thread seeded by AI discussion starters, a ✅ button so members can mark it read (leaders see how many are ready), and a 🔊 button that queues the week's readings as audio. Chapter quizzes can be assigned too, and your score posts to that study's thread. While reading, the 👥 button on any verse sends it straight into a group's chat. Groups also look after themselves between meetings: a fresh question of the week appears in the study thread, a recap is posted after each meeting for anyone who missed it, and marking your own prayer request answered offers to keep it as an ebenezer. Each group also has a 📊 Review tab — the term at a glance: how many studies were assigned, what share of the reading the group actually came prepared for, meetings held, and prayers logged and answered, with Word and PDF export so a leader has something to hand a pastor at the end of a term. Groups also have built-in Chat (no outside messaging app needed) — you can send pictures and GIFs as well as text: tap 📎 to attach a photo from your device (it's shrunk automatically before it's sent, so it won't eat your data), or GIF to search for one (GIF search is powered by GIPHY, filtered to their most conservative rating; the GIF button only appears where your network allows GIPHY — attaching pictures always works). Tap any picture to see it full screen — tap again to zoom in, and close it with the ✕, the back button, or by tapping the space around it. That works for every picture in the app, not just chat: lesson artwork, chapter images, and the illustrations on parables, miracles and the rest. Pictures can be sent on their own or with a caption, and either the sender or a group leader can delete one, which removes the picture itself and not merely the message. To keep the app's storage in hand, pictures older than twelve months are cleared automatically — the message and its text stay, with a note where the picture was. The size limit is 2 MB, and anything larger is refused with a plain explanation, Meetings with RSVP, check-in, a join link for your video service, and 📆 Add to calendar (downloads a calendar event with the time, location, and meeting link for Google/Apple/Outlook), a Prayer wall with "🙏 prayed" taps and anonymous requests, and a Members roster with profile photos and leader roles. A red counter on the ☰ menu button and the home screen shows new messages wherever you are in the app; choose per-group notifications: every message, a daily digest, or off. Picking a setting asks your permission to send notifications, and a line under it tells you plainly whether this device is registered. On iPhone and iPad, notifications only work once you have added BibleGPT+ to your home screen — in a normal Safari tab Apple does not allow them at all.

Open Topics to build your own verse collections. Create a topic, then add verses from Search results or from the reader/study views with the ⭐ button. Study all the verses together and share a topic by link.

Open Scripture Memory, add the verses you want to learn, then press ▶ Play Review to memorize them as a game. You don't have to start from a blank box: wherever the app names key verses — in a chapter's study guide, in a lesson's Deep Dive, or after a quiz — a 🧠 Memorise these button drops them straight into your flashcards. Each round deals a shuffled set of due cards: tap a flip card to reveal the verse and rate how well you knew it (Again / Good / Easy), or — once a verse is familiar — solve the word-scramble by tapping the words back into order. You earn XP and combo bonuses, build a daily streak, and each verse climbs from New → Learning → Familiar → Strong → Mastered (shown as stars). Spaced repetition schedules every card for you, so you review each verse right before you'd forget it. When you're signed in, your verses, XP, streak, and mastery levels sync across your devices.

At the top of Scripture Memory, pick a book and chapter and tap Build deck to auto-create a flashcard deck of that chapter's original-language words (most frequent first). Tap Review due to study: see the Greek or Hebrew word, reveal its meaning, and grade yourself Again or Good — spaced repetition schedules each word for you. When you're signed in, decks and progress sync across your devices.

Open Reading Plans to follow a structured schedule — from the Gospels in 30 days to the whole Bible in a year. Tap Read Now and just keep pressing Next in the Reader: it follows the plan's own sequence (even across books) and counts each finished day automatically — no need to come back to the plan between days. A banner shows which plan and day you're on; tap its ✕ (or pick a different chapter) to read freely again. You can still mark days by tapping their checkboxes, and use Continue reading on the home screen to jump back in. Twenty-one plans cover the whole Bible (in a year, or at pace in 90 days), the Old and New Testaments, the Gospels, Paul's letters, the prophets, and single books a chapter a day — Genesis, Matthew, John, Proverbs, Revelation — plus Psalms in 30 days and the seasonal Advent and Holy Week plans. The "For what you're facing" section offers thirteen short 7-day plans for specific seasons — anxiety, grief, hope, forgiveness, peace & rest, doubt, gratitude, new believers, loneliness, marriage & family, money & generosity, anger & conflict, and finding your purpose — one chapter a day. Any plan has a 🔗 Share button that hands you a link and a ready-made message, so you can invite people to read along from a text or a social post. Watch for seasonal Challenges (like John in 21 Days) — finish inside the window to earn an exclusive badge.

On any plan, tap Start a group and share the invite link — friends who open it join with one tap. The group panel shows everyone's progress bar and a ✅ for who's read today (first names only — emails are never shown). Great for small groups, families, and church challenges. Leave a group anytime.

Tap 🧘 Guided below any chapter in the Reader for a full-screen, swipeable session: a gentle intro, the chapter in small portions with a reflection to sit with after each, and a closing prayer. Finishing a session counts toward your reading streak.

The home-screen streak widget tracks your current and best run of consecutive reading days (🔥). Tap the 🔔 to turn on a daily reminder at a time you choose — and where your browser supports it, you'll also get the Verse of the Day as a push notification each morning, even with the app closed. The 🔗 button shares your streak as an image card, and the 🏅 button shows your badges — achievements earned by reading streaks, quiz scores, memorized verses, finished plans, challenges, and answered prayers. New badges pop a toast the moment you earn them, on any of your devices.

Study Guides, the Study Journal, and Deep Dive studies can be downloaded with the ⬇ Word and 🖨 PDF buttons — formatted for printing and sharing, with verse references intact.

Most results have a 🔗 Share button that opens your device's share sheet (message, email, social, etc.), and a Copy button for the text. If your device can't share natively, a copy-link dialog appears instead. Every share now carries a link straight back to the thing you shared — a parable, a miracle, a character study, a Sermon on the Mount unit, a covenant, a name of God, a memorial, a book overview, a study guide, a set of cross references, a verse comparison or a subject. Whoever opens it lands on that exact item rather than the front door. Where the study has a picture — and most do — the picture goes with it, so what arrives is the illustration and the summary together rather than a wall of text. If they are new to the app, the sign-in screen tells them what is waiting for them, and it opens as soon as they sign in.

Sermons, lessons, topics and every study item generate links that auto-load the content for whoever opens them — no navigating required. Lessons also produce a QR code you can print or project for a class to scan.

Open the Bible Reader and tap Download on the "Read offline" bar to save the entire ESV to your device (about 6 MB) — then every chapter is readable with no connection, even ones you've never opened. The installed app itself also opens offline. Anything else you view while online — study guides, the Verse of the Day, devotionals — is cached for later too, and an offline badge appears when you lose network. AI tools (chat, study guides, sermons) need a connection and will tell you so instead of stalling.

Notes, highlights, and bookmarks you make while offline are queued and saved automatically the moment you're back online — in the order you made them.

While a chapter plays, your phone's lock screen and notification shade show play/pause controls, the chapter reference, and artwork — so you can control playback without unlocking.

On supported phones you'll feel subtle haptic taps on actions like saving, and the layout respects notches and rounded corners for a native look. Unsupported devices simply skip the vibration.

Add BibleGPT+ to your home screen or desktop for faster launch, full-screen reading, and offline access — see the platform-by-platform instructions at the top of this page.
