## What is When You Study?

When You Study is a Bible study log and journal that helps you actually sit down with God's Word — and remember what you read.

Log every study session with the passage, your notes, and up to three photos of your Bible page or notebook. Browse a calendar that shows which days you studied, review your full session history, and watch your statistics grow as a habit forms.

NEW IN 1.2 — BIBLE REFERENCE SCANNER
Point your camera (or pick a photo) at a Bible-study book page. On-device Vision OCR finds every Scripture reference (Eph 5:22-33, John 3:16, 1 Cor 13, chapter ranges, abbreviations) and looks up the verse from the bundled KJV — no network needed for verse text.

Tap any highlighted reference for a translucent verse popup with:
- Prev/next chevrons on the popup edges
- Tri-state format button: paragraph / one-verse-per-line / context (±2 surrounding verses)
- One-tap copy
- Resizable height

NEW IN 1.2 — BOOKS
Group scanned pages into a book with a cover photo. Cover OCR auto-fills title and author. The Look-up-online button queries Google Books (with OpenLibrary fallback) and shows you the official cover side-by-side with yours so you can decide which to keep.

OTHER FEATURES
- One-tap session logging with passage, duration, and notes
- Attach up to three photos per session
- Built-in offline KJV
- Calendar, history, and statistics views
- Custom colors, gradient backgrounds, and study reminders
- Privacy-first: all data stays on your device
- iPhone, iPad, and Mac (via Catalyst)
- All features free

"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth." - 2 Timothy 2:15
