Being a young person who responds well to stimulation and the feelings of success, this app did wonders for me. Im truly great full to this app and hope others my have my success finding it. Something I would appreciate in the app is adding a notebook section for making notes. I should probably just get a notebook actually, but still. ### 5/5 — I love this! *2026-06-15* This is a great way to help you go through to Book of Mormon. The quizzes help me make sure I don’t just zone out while reading and I love the feature to save my favorite verses. I’m grateful I found this app it’s helpful when you have a busy schedule and struggle to find motivation and time to study the scriptures. ### 5/5 — Dopamine Hits *2026-06-15* I adore the Book of Mormon. I feel the Spirit every time I read from it. But I seriously struggle with consistency and routine (possibly due to ADHD). This app is such a clever solution to that problem! I love that there are comprehension questions every few verses. They help me really focus on what I’m reading. And I love the XP and progress elements. They really help me see visually that I’m making progress. I just found this app at random today whilst looking for scripture related games for my kiddo to play during church, but I am so, so glad I did! I hope it helps me stick to a consistent reading schedule. It really feels like it will. Thank you to whomever created this app - and for offering it for free. You are genuinely doing the Lord’s work! ### 5/5 — amazing+new ideas for dev *2026-06-12* dude this app is awesome, it’s burning that fire in me to read again. but with that i’ve been using this app for my reading rather than the traditional scriptures app and since tether has questions to answer and stuff it makes me understand and read the verses in more depth and i learn things i didt know before. what i think would be awesome is if you found a way to add highlighting verses. you could just do it mid read and then at the bottom of home page there could be tabs where you add highlights and you could even add mistakes, where you can redo questions. i think this would be an amazing addition if possible and helps so many people. thanks man keep up the work love what your doing ### 5/5 — LOVE *2026-06-09* I have loved this so far!! I am preparing to leave on my mission this fall and this is such an amazing tool! The only thing I’d change is being able to start anywhere in the bom because when I downloaded it I was already halfway through the bom and had to start over 😅😅 ### 5/5 — Small and Simple *2026-06-09* I love the way every chapter is broken into many digestible pieces. It encourages me to slow down and really understand. It also allows me to feel connected to God and the scriptures without feeling overwhelmed because my day is too busy. Thank you for this! I’m excited to watch it grow 😊 ### 5/5 — Best scripture study app by a long shot! *2026-06-08* The app is amazing! It’s super smooth and helps me remember what I read in the Book Of Mormon. It would be amazing if the developer could add D&C, the Pearl of Great Price, and the Old and New Testaments, but I understand that it would take a lot of time to do. ### 5/5 — Best thing ever *2026-06-08, version 1.4.0* I’ve been looking for a app like this for months and I found it on instagram literally one of the best things ever keep it up ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-08, version 1.4.0* Hope for eventually the ability to write notes and highlight things. And maybe some day get the old and New Testament as well ### 5/5 — Great! (but one suggestion) *2026-06-08* This app is great! My daughter is loving it and is excited about reading the scriptures through it. My only suggestion would be to set it up so that there can be multiple profiles reading in different places at once so that I can use it, and my daughter, and some of my other kids too. Thanks for putting this together! ### 5/5 — WOW THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! *2026-06-07, version 1.4.0* THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST APPS EVER. ### 5/5 — This is amazing! *2026-06-05, version 1.3.0* Absolutely amazing job on the design and the development of this app and all of the features it has! ### 5/5 — Fantastic!! *2026-06-04, version 1.3.0* This gives me my little daily dose of scripture. I think this will really help me stay more consistent with reading the Book of Mormon!! ### 5/5 — Game Changer *2026-06-04, version 1.3.0* As a duo addict this is amazing! I love love love this idea and once I do a lesson, I do several more. The chapters are broken up into a few lessons and are so manageable! Love it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — amazing+new ideas for dev *2026-06-04, version 1.3.0* dude this app is awesome, it’s burning that fire in me to read again. but with that i’ve been using this app for my reading rather than the traditional scriptures app and since tether has questions to answer and stuff it makes me understand and read the verses in more depth and i learn things i didt know before. what i think would be awesome is if you found a way to add highlighting verses. you could just do it mid read and then at the bottom of home page there could be tabs where you add highlights and you could even add mistakes, where you can redo questions. i think this would be an amazing addition if possible and helps so many people. thanks man keep up the work love what your doing ### 4/5 — Great app! An issue *2026-08-03* I love this app, and all the questions that come after the scriptures. It’s a fantastic way to stay connected to the Book of Mormon, and I highly recommend. There’s one minor thing and one bigger thing - I’ve noticed that in a lot of the questions, the answer tends to have a period after it, like names, while the others are left without punctuation. Not that I care about punctuation I just think it tends to point out the answer. Now the bigger thing: Whenever I use my tether account on a separate device and extend my streak, and I go back to my other device with the same account the next day, it tells me my streak is lost. Overall, I love this app and have been using it consistently for the past month, I just wish my streak kept across my Apple devices. ### 4/5 — Love this app *2026-07-14* This app is so fun and I love using it. I know my kids will love it as well! I have 2 concerns though… 1. The app is almost an exact copy of Duolingo… I would hate to see this app have to get shut down for copying them! And 2, the app logo looks somewhat close to a noose 😬. This could be concerning for parents or for those that this could be triggering to. I think the app is wonderful but it could use some design updates! ### 4/5 — I want to be able to have friends on this app *2026-07-13* This app is amazing but I wish you could have friends on it I know that would make it very similar to Duolingo but it already is similar so why not make it so you can have friends, send each other scriptures maybe even friend streaks like Duolingo that would make it 10 times better than it already is. I use it everyday bc it is a streak app and it helps me remember to read my scriptures!! Hope this helps and I hope the creator sees this! ### 4/5 — One suggestions *2026-06-11* There’s one thing that came to mind while using this amazing app, I think it would be really great if after every section of chapters, in addition to after every lesson, there was an extra longer quiz you have to do to move on to the next set of chapters. If that makes any sense at all! But overall this app is absolutely amazing and have been loving it!! ### 4/5 — Exhausted and busy teenager *2026-05-23* This is an amazing app. I’m personally preparing for a mission but I always find it so hard to sit down and read my scriptures because of adhd but this app is so helpful. It has game items like cap which makes me wanna keep going even when I have other things I need to do. ### 5/5 — GET IT *2026-09-03* I have never written a review for anything before. This is worth my time. It’s worth YOUR time. It’s fun, chill, easy, simple and straight forward to understand. I’ve been able to help my nieces and nephews keep streaks on their reading because we can see each other’s progress every single day. Get it. Tell everyone you know to get it. Start your streak! ### 5/5 — 10/10 for mission prep *2026-08-13* Prior to finding this app I was so anxious about my overall understanding of the Book of Mormon, so Tether felt like an answer to a prayer! I could not recommend it more. The knowledge check questions after every few verses are especially helpful as someone who struggles with maintaining comprehension levels over long study sessions! ❤️ ### 5/5 — Love the app *2026-08-04* Enjoying the app. It is really good at encouraging me to read daily. The questions keep me focused. Update: I think something changed with an update? The app used to have 2 buttons (options) when you finished the required chunk of reading for the day - 1) I’m done or 2)Keep reading. It also included a line that said “2 of 3 chunks left in the chapter”. I miss that. I often want to finish the chapter but i no longer know how long it will take or if I have gotten to the end of the chapter. And there is also no way back to the Home Screen without exiting and reentering the app. ### 5/5 — Good but needs a couple changes *2026-08-03* I really like this app, it motivates me to read every day, but it needs some changes. A highlight tool would be nice, because I’m using this as my main scriptures source. Also, I would like more than 5 friend streaks, that way I can motivate all my friends to read every day, and they can motivate me. Still a really great app! ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-07-30* If you are looking for a way to keep yourself engaged in reading the Book of Mormon. This is for you. The chapters are split into smaller portions to read which is really nice if you have a hard time focusing, and gives you things to think about so you aren’t just reading. You are engaging. If you struggle with reading the Book of Mormon or even if you don’t. Try this!! It’s helped me want to read everyday. ### 5/5 — Fun App! *2026-07-15* This is a really fun app. I just started using it but have already shared with my family. I have a child who is dyslexic. I wish there were some other font options but I love that it’s just a few verses on the screen at a time and you get asked a question about what you read to check if you understood what was read. I hope the developer expands to all the scriptures! ### 5/5 — Duolingo for Scripture Reading. Amazing! *2026-07-15* Such a simple idea, keep a streak alive by reading everyday. I have read 30 days in a row which I haven’t done without missing a day in years. The questions are actually perfect, they require a basic level of attention instead of just clicking through. I’ve already recommended this to friends. ### 5/5 — Great way to study *2026-07-14* I think this is a great way to study, especially with the questions along the way. I would love to see it expand to Spanish and other languages in the future. Since serving a Spanish-speaking mission 30 years ago, I often study the scriptures in Spanish still. ### 5/5 — Better then a phone charger *2026-07-14* This app has me more tethered than my phone charger. I opened it thinking I’d read “just one verse,” and suddenly I’m three chapters deep, looking up cross references, and wondering where the last 45 minutes went. The interface is clean, it works great, and it somehow makes scripture study easier than finding matching socks. If Nephi had this app, he probably would’ve added it to the list right after the brass plates. 10/10. Would willingly get spiritually sidetracked again. ### 5/5 — Wow! *2026-07-12* My 2 teens and I love this app! My 17 year old read the BOM last year as a challenge and literally did most of it 2 weeks before midnight on New Years Eve of 2025. He has a hard time with setting daily goals and habits and this has been amazing for him to do. It’s quick and you can read as much as you want. My 12 year old loves it as well and it’s something I’m doing with her every night. This has been the best way for us with ADHD to stay motivated and consistent. No overwhelm just little by little everyday. I would love to see this with the Bible, New Testament, and D&C as well! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
