What's New in undertext Bible

4.0

July 22, 2026

Grace hears You now. speak to Her out loud instead of typing. hold the mic and She listens, in Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Your own words. the Psalms carry their titles. the superscription sits above the first verse in the original, the way it does in the Hebrew. a quiet place to keep what She gives You: a native journal, and a forgiveness thread to hold a name and set it down. light or dark is a tap away now, a sun or a moon, whenever the room changes. and a good deal of quiet work beneath it all. the reader steadier, the words truer, the whole thing a little more still.

User reviews

Love this app!

I’ve tried a lot of Bible study tools, and this app stands out because it’s incredibly user-friendly while still offering real depth. It makes it easy to explore the original language, understand the context and intent behind each passage, and compare different theological perspectives without feeling overwhelmed. What used to take me much longer across multiple resources can now be done in one place, making Bible study more efficient and engaging.

One thing I especially appreciate is that it respects user privacy. Unlike many apps today, it doesn’t track or collect your personal data, which makes using it feel much more trustworthy. If you’re looking for a Bible study tool that is both powerful and easy to use, I highly recommend giving this app a try.

Understanding magnified

Absolutely phenomenal app for understanding the roots of the words and the actual meanings behind them. 10/10

Racist Hateful Creator

The creator of this app, Matt Gennings, leaves hateful comments on black people’s instagram reels. His user name is matt_tv. Really ironic such a hateful person made a bible app and is a proud Christian. Hey Matt! WWJD buddy? Stop spreading and reenforcing hate! Stop putting people down and being mean. Jesus was an outspoken champion for the people that were different. He preached love and acceptance not belittling and publicly making fun of those who are different. There will be no place for you in the kingdom of heaven if you actually believe in Jesus and follow his teachings. I think you should be leaving comments asking people to be nice and to stop bullying for now on. Stop the hate. Be a real change in the world instead of making a virtue signaling app to look like a good person but in reality practicing hate and hurting actual humans. I’ve collected all of the comments you’ve left and am sending it to your supervisor at Apple. I will also make a public post about everything I’ve found and rally Twitter followers to pressure Apple to let you go. Have a good day and god bless

Response from developer

I want to be straight instead of defensive. This came across my feed, I didn't know who she was, and I carelessly treated it like a comedy thread and piled on with a comment about her appearance. That was thoughtless and unkind, and dressing it up as "just a joke" doesn't change how it landed. I've taken it down and I'm sorry. For what it's worth, race genuinely wasn't on my mind; I can see why it read that way given the thread, and I'm not saying that to excuse the comment, because the comment was unkind regardless. I'll be more careful about being someone who adds kindness instead of the opposite.

Bible Study staple

This is unlike any Bible app I’ve ever used.

Being able to see the original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic directly beneath the English text — word for word — completely changes the way I read Scripture. With a simple tap, I can see the meaning and pronunciation of the original language, which brings so much deeper understanding and context.

What I love most is the simplicity. No clutter. No distractions. No endless features getting in the way. Just the Word, beautifully presented in a thoughtful and contemplative way.

The app is fast, easy to use, works offline, and clearly built with incredible attention to detail.

If you love going deeper into Scripture, this app is absolutely worth downloading.
