First printed by the King's Printer Robert Barker, this was the third translation into English to be approved by the English Church authorities. The first was the Great Bible commissioned in the reign of King Henry VIII, and the second was the Bishops' Bible of 1568. In January 1604, King James I convened the Hampton Court Conference where a new English version was conceived in response to the perceived problems of the earlier translations as detected by the Puritans, a faction within the Church of England. James gave the translators instructions intended to guarantee that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology and reflect the episcopal structure of the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. The translation was done by 47 scholars, all of whom were members of the Church of England. In common with most other translations of the period, the New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew text, while the Apocrypha were translated from the Greek and Latin. In the Book of Common Prayer (1662), the text of the Authorized Version replaced the text of the Great Bible – for Epistle and Gospel readings – and as such was authorized by Act of Parliament. By the first half of the 18th century, the Authorized Version was effectively unchallenged as the English translation used in Anglican and Protestant churches. Over the course of the 18th century, the Authorized Version supplanted the Latin Vulgate as the standard version of scripture for English speaking scholars. Today, the most used edition of the King James Bible, and often identified as plainly the King James Version, especially in the United States, closely follows the standard text of 1769, edited by Benjamin Blayney at Oxford.

Tango shows you what is actually behind the thing you were about to scroll past. See a post worth more than a swipe? Screenshot it, hit share, pick Tango. It reads the image, pulls out what is really going on in it, and asks you one question to check you took it in. A fashion reel becomes a garment supply chain. A skate clip becomes Newton's laws. A protest becomes the economics underneath it. The point is that it is about the thing in front of you, not a general knowledge quiz served at a random moment. HOW IT WORKS Screenshot the post. Share it to Tango. Read what it found, answer the question, get on with your day. It takes about a minute. Tango annotates what is genuinely visible in the image and attaches a real, checkable fact to each thing it points at. Then one question, answerable only from what it just showed you, with a written explanation either way. THE PAUSE, WHEN YOU WANT IT You can also just open Tango. A slow breathing cycle, then one question across four kinds of thinking: logic, verbal reasoning, numeric sense, and attention to detail. Useful when you feel the pull of the feed and want a moment before you give in to it. A RECORD THAT IS YOURS A day streak, your accuracy, a seven day history, and a score in each of the four areas. It lives on your phone and belongs to you. No one else ever sees it. ABOUT YOUR DATA The image you share is sent to be analysed and is never stored, never logged, and never used to train anything. Nothing is attached to it: no account, no sign in, no device identifier, no history. Tango cannot see your photo library and never takes a screenshot by itself. It only ever sees the one image you deliberately hand it. Your streak, your scores, and every answer you have given never leave the phone at all. Erase all of it any time from the About screen. WHAT TANGO DOES NOT DO Tango does not watch your screen, monitor other apps, or interrupt you. Everything it does starts with you choosing to hand it something. That is a design decision, not a limitation.
