## What is Chapter & Verse?

Verse finds the Bible verse you only half remember.

Type the few words you recall, even misspelled, and Verse finds it: "mustart seed" still finds Matthew 13:31. No account, no ads, and nothing you type is sent anywhere.

FOUR WAYS TO FIND A VERSE
- The words you remember, spelled right or not: "mustart seed" finds Matthew 13:31.
- The name of a story: "the prodigal son" goes straight to Luke 15:11.
- A reference, typed any way: "john 3 16" or "jn 3 16".
- What the verse is about, in your own words: "a verse about how short life is". This meaning search runs on your iPhone.

Found a verse you love? Tap it, then tap the magnifying glass to see others that say something similar.

When a search finds a lot of verses, Verse tells you how many and suggests adding a word to narrow it down.
