With this program, it makes it so much easier with hints that jog the memory. It is encouraging when I see my progress each day. ### 5/5 — Makes Bible memorization easy! *2023-01-21* There were several apps to choose from, but this one caught my eye. And I'm glad I did! It has made memorizing so much easier. There are games that help you learn & before you know it, you've learned two or three or more verses. It comes in many translations so there will be one that you especially like. BUY the full version. You won't be sorry. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2022-11-18, version 8.3.2* Great way to Hide God’s Word in our hearts! ### 5/5 — The best scripture memory program! *2022-07-25* I’ve been using MemLok now for 12 years and love it! The simplicity encouraged my dedication to memorize Gods Word! 12 years ago, as a new believer I didn’t know where to start when it came to memorizing Verses. Today I’m a firm believer that this approach to help memorize through visual, lead in topic approach and repetition is key and results in success. Thank you to those who have been obedient to Gods ministry as tools like this has encouraged my walk in the Lord! ### 5/5 — Wonderful! *2022-06-06, version 8.1.0* Effective tool for Bible verse memorization. ### 5/5 — MemLok is great *2022-05-12, version 8.1.0* MemLok has a method that almost anyone can use to memorize scripture. ### 5/5 — Super and continuing to improve! Love this memory tool! *2022-04-27* I have had Memlok for many years and it keeps improving. Occasionally I’ve tried another app and this one is the best. The people behind it are also very kind Christians and so helpful if you have a problem! ### 5/5 — Great App *2022-03-21, version 8.0.12* Well done and the daily devotional is meaningful as well. ### 5/5 — Learn more about Gods will *2022-03-10, version 8.0.12* I spend more time in the word and am able to handle the good days and not so good with grace ### 5/5 — This is so great! *2022-02-16, version 8.0.12* So grateful I found this App! Its such a useful tool to strengthen my walk with the Lord. The flash card format makes memorizing so convenient. And of course the games are helpful and fun!!! ### 5/5 — Long awaited App is finally here *2022-01-25, version 8.0.8* Enjoying years of learning via the desktop version of the easiest and most effective Bible Memory System, I'm excited that the Smart Phone version is out now. It will take a little getting used to when crossing over from the Desktop to Smartphone, but it is well worth it. ### 5/5 — A Help to Recall Gods Word (resubmitted) *2022-01-05* If you are not blessed with a photographic memory, and become frustrated because you can’t recall the text and/or the location of a Bible scripture - I found this app to be a help for me! The very clever graphics associated with each Bible verse help in placing the words into my long term memory. There is also a feature allowing the user to generate your own graphical memory pictorials from a graphical library as well. Last but by no means least there are short insightful biblically sound messages from the creator of this app. In this world of so much uncertainty, we need to carry the powerful, perfect, and eternally true word of God. Blessings unto you. . . Maurice Jenkins ### 5/5 — Useful tool *2021-12-19, version 8.0.2* Useful tool to memorize God's Word and to recall it as needed. "Today's Message" provides application and inspiration to stay motivated in putting God's Word into action. ### 5/5 — Great investment of my time. *2021-11-10, version 8.0.2* MemLok has been the best method for memorizing scripture I have found. The investment I spend each day in hiding God’s Word in my heart helps me to be a better person and more importantly a better witness for Him. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I still don't have the upgrade I was charged for :( *2025-03-07* I purchased the $30 upgrade and it is not being installed on my phone. I have not been able to make use of this upgrade. I reached out for a refund so that I could re-attempt the upgrade and have been denied the refund. I tried to ask for additional help and reconsideration of the refund so that I could re-attempt. The status is there is no refund and the decision is final. I find this to be especially unfortunate given the subject matter of what I'm trying to obtain. My mom recently passed away, and I was trying to establish memory of verses that will help me and my family move through this time. and I'm unable to do so with this application and cannot recommend this application, if what happened to me will happen to other people. I can't give this a high degree of recommendation at this time as hope that this will change in the future. Until then I'll be seeking memory verse skill building with another application. I'm sad for the outcome, but I will continue to check back periodically to see if I'll ever get the forever edition I was charged for. **Developer response:** I just saw this review. I am sorry you did not get an upgrade. I need to have more information to check into this.

I was disappointed to find out that the only free Bible is King James and if you want another version you have to pay. ### 1/5 — Can’t get into the app *2023-08-10, version 9.0.4* I can’t get into the app. I can’t get past the create your free account, sign in, restore apple page. It just says, “ no or slow communication with MemLok server”. It doesn’t matter if my WiFi is on or off, it always says the same thing no matter where I am. ### 1/5 — Can’t Access *2021-12-29, version 8.0.2* Started using this app yesterday and it was great. This morning I tried to use it and it would not accept my password. When I selected “forgot password” it sent me an email with my password in it and when I tried to sign in again it didn’t open and said to check my password. Not much good if you can’t gain access. Looking for another Bible memorizing app. Extremely disappointed. ### 1/5 — Downloaded App and Can’t move beyond the tutorial *2019-11-25, version 6.1.3* This app looks promising but is frustrating as I cannot get out of the tutorial section. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2018-09-16, version 4.5.0* Only gives you one card and then wanted you to purchase. Refrains from mentioning that in the review. I consider this to be deception as they take you’re email details first also. ### 2/5 — Disappointed *2023-02-07, version 8.4.4* The concept is good of pictures to remember is good. The execution is poor the images, verse choice, menu. It is also very expensive wanted just under $30. ### 2/5 — Free is not so free *2020-02-08, version 6.2.5* FYI the King James Version is the only free version. ### 3/5 — Great but too expensive *2021-09-27, version 8.0.1* I’ve really found Memlok very useful (I’m currently only using the 15 day trial), I do feel the need to memorise God’s word, this is fun & effective. I would’ve given 5 stars if the app were more affordable, I do feel it’s quite expensive for me to purchase the full version, especially during this current climate. If it is ever reduced I’ll definitely buy it. ### 4/5 — Excellent *2024-08-16, version 9.5.9* To memorise God's word and treasure it in our hearts is a precious activity, and this app is an excellent tool for that. I am very grateful for this app ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2026-06-24, version 10.28.0* I really like the images, as they are extremely helpful in memorizing the verses. ### 5/5 — Less than 1 year *2026-05-09, version 10.26.0* To God be the Glory! In about a year I went from knowing about 3 verses to about 250. Combine Memlok with using the “memory palace technique “(look up on YouTube) and it will be life changing!!! Be consistent and watch what happens!!! Use AI for pictures to put on your verses inMemlok Stock pictures are ok but AI can produce whaler you want!!This program works!!!! ### 5/5 — Great product *2026-05-08* I definitely love this product. I’m glad that it is available for people who love the Bible. I used to think that I could no longer memorize much because of bad memory and aging, however, since I started using MemLok, I have been memorizing many verses. I know the Chinese language., which is a pictorial language. I think that’s why this app works well with my brain. The method used in this app for memorization actually teaches me how to memorize things in other subjects. ### 5/5 — Grateful for MemLok *2026-04-11, version 10.26.0* I had a great memory when I was young, but recently find it harder, almost impossible. I understood the importance of Bible verse memory so I was excited to try MemLok. It works! I now have over 40 verses memorized and planted in my heart and mind. Thank you Jesus and MemLok. ### 5/5 — Wonderful way to memorize *2025-12-09, version 10.18.0* I love using this is so easy to memorize scripture. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Great memory system *2025-10-19, version 10.14.0* It’s simplicity makes it easy to use and develop the habit of practice ### 5/5 — MemLok *2025-07-26, version 10.7.0* Great App ### 5/5 — Tina *2024-10-23, version 9.5.12* This app is making it easier to remember scripture. ### 5/5 — Wonderful tool to grow in God’s word *2023-08-12, version 9.0.4* This is a great resource for committing God’s Word to memory. I have found that doing so has really helped me grow in my faith. Wonderful customer service too! ### 5/5 — Changed my Life! *2023-04-15, version 8.6.2* For years I had struggled with chronic anxiety, paralyzing at times for which I had no idea it’s source since I had loved Jesus since childhood. When I was a young first-time mom at the age of 27 and felt I was losing my mind to the crippling anxiety and fear, a visiting missionary told me about MemLok because it had helped her and she gave me Drake’s 1-800-MEMLOCK number and I called. (This was 1995 so messaging wasn’t a thing!) When my binder arrived in the mail I immediately chose my first topic, Security, because it seemed if I could just be sure Jesus loved ME and that I was safe in Him, and the anxiety and fear might leave. I followed Drake’s instructions to a T: 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week. My first verse was 1 Cor. 1:8-9 “He will keep you strong to the end so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful and He will do this.” As I chewed on this that first week I felt a twinge of Hope and freedom in my spirit. As a youth pastor, I knew this was true for you, and you, and you…but had never believed it in my heart about me! That was the first day of the rest of my life. For 4 years straight I memorized verses 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week…and then I fell out of the habit with my young growing family and too many irons on the fire. But the deed had been done…the Seed was planted in my heart and just as God promises in Is 55:11 “the Word of God goes forth and does not return void, it always accomplishes the purpose for which it is sent!”, it happened in me. It’s purpose? “To preach good news to the poor, to bind up the broken-hearted, proclaim freedom to the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners!” That was me: poor, broken-hearted, a prisoner in chains of darkness held captive to my fears. But I have been FREE for over 25 years…walking in the Light of His love, dancing in fields of grace with my Father, empowered by the Spirit as I continually proclaim all that Is 61:1 says we do under the anointing of the Spirit of the Sovereign LORD! For the last couple years I have returned to my daily Scripture memory and review discipline using the fabulous MEMLOK app!! I absolutely LOVE this tool for hiding more and more of the WORD in my heart. It keeps me falling in love with Jesus more and more, filled with His power which overflows to all those I encounter either in the US when I am here on furlough or in Southern Africa (Botswana) the country of my missionary calling. Thank you, Drake, for your love for Jesus and passion for His Word! It has, is, and always will produce a harvest of righteousness in this daughter of the King and I will continue to share it and send people your way! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
