### 5/5 — My new everyday Bible!

*2026-10-15*

This app has everything I could want (Strong’s, Thompson chains, Nave’s, Webster’s, maps and more) during my Bible studies right within reach and yet somehow it is also out of the way enough so I’m not distracted while reading. The search capabilities alone make this app a must try and the margin makes it feel just like my paper Bible.

### 5/5 — Superb Bible App

*2026-10-15*

Old School Sally (a total hard cover fan) has been won over to the digital side with this King James Bible app. It is so well done and so easy to navigate that even I can do it. I must admit I am really enjoying all the extras (Concordance, references, etc) a click away. I highly recommend it … a tremendous blessing!

### 5/5 — Best bible app

*2026-10-15*

Very easy to use and a lot of cool features! Highly recommend!!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-10-28

The Bible’s own times, and every new tool is free.

• Timeline of the Bible: from Creation to the apostles, the lives, judges, kings, prophets, and empires of Scripture on one timeline you can pinch to zoom, dated by the Bible’s own numbers in Ussher’s chronology. Where the text gives a different year than Ussher, the timeline follows the text and shows why.
• Under each chapter’s title, a quiet line tells where it falls: “1491 BC · The Exodus.” Tap it to open the timeline there.
• Harmony of the Gospels: the four accounts side by side, event by event, from Edward Robinson’s harmony of 1846, with every verse of the Gospels in its place. On iPad, open a section full screen to read all four in columns.
• Passion Week: the last days of the Lord’s earthly life, day by day, from His entry into Jerusalem to His resurrection, crucified on Wednesday.
• Daniel’s Seventy Weeks: the prophecy laid out to scale, from the commandment to build Jerusalem to Messiah the Prince.
• Kings of Judah and Israel: each king’s page now lists the prophets of his day.
• Two more Difficult Passages, including the four hundred and fifty years of the judges in Acts 13:20.
• Verse ranges in study notes now link every verse they name.

Find them all in Library › Maps, under Times.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-10-24

Our biggest update yet, and every new study tool is free.

• Interlinear: the Greek of the Received Text under every phrase of the New Testament, and the Hebrew under the Old, with an optional transliteration. Tap a Greek or Hebrew word for its parsing and Strong’s entry. Turn it on in Settings › Interlinear.
• Manuscript Evidence: where the KJV’s Greek differs from modern editions, see which editions read which. For key passages, including Mark 16:9–20, John 7:53–8:11, Acts 8:37, 1 Timothy 3:16, and 1 John 5:7, see the Greek manuscripts, early translations, and church fathers that bear witness to the KJV’s reading. The best known are marked † in the text.
• Translation Notes: why the KJV says “only begotten,” “charity,” “Easter,” “Lucifer,” “virgin,” and more, where modern Bibles say something else.
• Difficult Passages: 29 places where verses seem to disagree, from how Judas died to how many stalls Solomon had, each answered with the text as it stands. They’re marked ‡ in the text and listed in Search.
• Kings of Judah and Israel: every reign in both kingdoms side by side, in Ussher’s chronology, with the Bible’s own cross-datings between them. Open it from the link under the chapter title in Kings and Chronicles, or from Search.
• New section headings throughout the Bible.
• Maps: seas, rivers, and brooks are now named on chapter maps and atlas pages, and their names follow the map as you move it.
• The reading bars now come back only when you deliberately scroll up, so they stay out of your way while you read.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-17

• New Pro reading themes: Parchment, an aged page with a faint paper grain; Candlelight, a warm dark with amber highlights; and Midnight, a navy night theme. Try any of them in Settings before you unlock.
• Maps: Seas, rivers, and mountains are now named on every map, with each place's distance from Jerusalem (in furlongs too), and several places moved to where the KJV's account puts them.
• Automatic theme now lets you pick your own day and night themes.
• Chapter outline: in the chapter picker, switch from numbers to an outline of each chapter's section headings, and search them to find a passage fast.
• Search: a lone % now stands for any one word, as on thywordistrue.com. Try "in % beginning".
• Fixed an issue where starting the free trial sometimes didn't unlock Pro right away.
• Optional anonymous usage statistics: one daily count of things like chapters read and features used, with no account, device ID, or reading history. Turn it off in Settings › Share Anonymous Usage Statistics.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-12

Made for iPhone Duo
 • Folded, it's a pocket Bible. Open it, and the cross-reference margin sits beside the text, like the center column of a printed reference Bible.

Maps
 • Every stop on a journey is numbered on the map. A place visited more than once shows each number, like "4, 6" at Bethel.
 • Tap a stop to read the verse that names it, and step through the journey in order.
 • Pinch to zoom now zooms around your fingers.

Marking
 • The marking tools stay in place while a new mark saves, instead of sliding away and back.
 • On wide screens, long-pressing a word no longer scrolls the page out from under your finger.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-12
