Apocrypha / Deuterocanonical: Bible’s Lost Books: The Apocrypha is a collection of ancient biblical books that were included in the original 1611 King James Bible (KJV) but were later removed in 1885. These texts were originally positioned between the Old Testament and the New Testament, alongside maps and genealogies. Some of these books are also known as Deuterocanonical books, a term used by the Catholic Church and other Christian traditions. The 70 missing verses of 2 Esdras, which are not included in the King James Version Apocrypha, can be found in the Cambridge Annotated Study Apocrypha, edited by Howard C. Kee, and in the NRSV Holy Bible with Apocrypha, published by Oxford University Press. Features: ・ Audio Bible (TTS – Text-to-Speech): Listen to the Apocrypha, Deuterocanonical books, and the KJV Bible with professional narration. ・ Offline Access: Read and listen to the Bible and Apocrypha without an internet connection. ・ Auto-Scrolling Mode: Continuous reading without flipping pages manually. ・ Full-Screen Reading Mode for distraction-free Bible study. ・ Bookmark & Notepad: Save your favorite verses, add notes, and copy passages with a single tap. ・ Custom Highlights: Choose from 4 different colors. ・ Large & Bold Fonts: Easy-to-read text with adjustable font sizes, word spacing, and line height. ・ Powerful search engine that lets you quickly find verses across all books of the Bible. ・ Three Verse Layout Modes for personalized reading preferences. ・ Resume Reading: Easily pick up where you left off. ・ Portrait & Landscape Modes for flexible reading. ・ Additional Free Bible Apps Available: Download the King James Version (KJV 1611), World English Bible (WEB), and more. Books Included for Free: Apocrypha / Deuterocanonical Books: 1 Esdras 2 Esdras (with missing 70 verses) Tobit Judith Additions to Esther Wisdom of Solomon Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) Baruch Letter of Jeremiah Prayer of Azariah Susanna Bel and the Dragon Prayer of Manasseh 1 Maccabees 2 Maccabees Laodiceans Should the Apocrypha Be in the Bible? The Apocrypha has been a subject of debate for centuries. Some argue these books were never part of the inspired Word of God, citing verses such as Tobit 6:5-8, which mentions magic, as inconsistent with the rest of the Bible. Others believe the Apocrypha was wrongly removed, pointing out that these books were included in the Bible for nearly 2,000 years before being taken out just over a century ago. Some claim that they were excluded due to their absence from the original Hebrew manuscripts, while others argue that publishers removed them to reduce printing costs. Interestingly, fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls, dating back to before 70 A.D., contain portions of Apocryphal books in Hebrew, including Sirach and Tobit, suggesting that these texts were valued in early Jewish communities. These Bible book apps are also available from the same developer: King James Version (KJV) & World English Bible (WEB) The King James Bible (KJV) remains one of the most widely recognized and influential Bible translations. Commissioned by King James I of England in 1604 and completed in 1611, it has shaped English-speaking Christianity for centuries. For those seeking a more modern translation, the World English Bible (WEB) provides a complete Holy Bible in contemporary English, maintaining accuracy and readability.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Apocrypha at 4.7 against Montana Code Annotated's 3.5. Apocrypha also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months). Montana Code Annotated's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 73%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Apocrypha holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Apocrypha has 643 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Apocrypha's written reviews are positive against 100% of Montana Code Annotated's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Apocrypha ships an update fortnightly, Montana Code Annotated every 15 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
