FAQ
How does Verscroll help me memorize Bible verses?
Verscroll uses a spaced repetition system that adapts to your recitation accuracy and pace. Each attempt is scored, and verses you struggle with reappear sooner, while those you know well are reviewed less frequently.
Can I add my own Bible verses to Verscroll?
Yes, you can paste your own text in any translation or language. You can also specify how well you already know the verse to start the learning schedule appropriately.
What Bible translations does Verscroll support?
Verscroll supports the ESV (English Standard Version) and NLT (New Living Translation) translations. The text is presented cleanly, without verse numbers, headings, or footnotes.
How does Verscroll use Screen Time permissions?
Verscroll utilizes the Screen Time framework to shield the apps you select. This permission allows it to block access to chosen apps until you recite a verse, without revealing which apps you have selected.
Is Verscroll private and secure?
Yes, Verscroll is private by default. Your verses, recitation history, and app selections remain on your device. There is no account, sign-in, tracking, or analytics.
What happens if I miss a word when reciting a verse?
If you miss a word, the screen will shake to indicate an error. The accuracy of your recitation is factored into the spaced repetition schedule for that verse.
Does Verscroll have ads or in-app purchases?
No, Verscroll is completely free and does not contain advertisements or in-app purchases. It is designed to focus solely on the habit of verse memorization.
What devices is Verscroll available on?
Verscroll is currently available for iPhone. It is designed to work with Apple's Screen Time framework.
