It's easy to memorize scripture, and hard to keep it memorized. Don't Forget God's Word gives you a short daily review of the verses you've learned, so they stay with you. YOUR VERSES • Add a verse by its reference and download it in your translation, or type it in yourself. • The King James Version, Bible in Basic English, Webster's Bible and Young's Literal Translation are built in and work offline. • Translations and book names are suggested as you type, and a downloaded passage's section heading becomes its theme. • Downloaded verses look like your Bible: poetry keeps its lines and indents, "LORD" is in small caps, and the words of Jesus are in red where your translation marks them. • Find any verse by its reference, theme or words, listed in Bible order. A DAILY REVIEW • Each morning at 7, the verses due today come back. Mark each one Memorized, or Skip it for now. • Choose how often each verse comes back, or let Auto-Manage spread them out: daily for a verse's first 30 reviews, about weekly until 100, then about monthly. • Sort by date added, by reference, by number of reviews, or randomly. • A new verse opens in full, so you can read it before you're tested on it. TEST YOURSELF • Hide the theme, the reference or the verse, and press and hold to peek. • Slide to hide part of a verse, a word at a time. • Hide Words hides a share of the words out of order, more as you learn. • Test Me: type the first letter of each hidden word to reveal it. • Hear the theme, reference and verse read aloud. • Hands-free: hold a hand over the top of your iPhone for a moment, or shake it, to mark a verse memorized. STAY WITH IT • An optional reminder each morning, and a badge with the number of verses left today. • Four themes: Dark, Leather, Watermelon and Light. • Share a verse, or email it. • Your verses, review progress and preferences sync across your iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud. • Back up every verse to a file, and open it on any device to bring them back. FREE AND PRIVATE No account, no ads, no tracking and no in-app purchases. Your verses stay on your devices and in your own iCloud, never with us. Downloaded translations come from the YouVersion Platform under licences from their publishers, and each verse shows its publisher's notice.

One book, start to finish. Proverbs is a free iPhone app for memorizing all thirty-one chapters of the book of Proverbs in the New American Standard Bible, NASB 1995 — narrated end to end, so you can work on it with your hands full and your eyes closed. I built it for my own family. For years I prayed the prayer in James 1:5, asking God for wisdom, because His word says He gives it generously. The answer I got was simple: you want wisdom — memorize Proverbs. I put it in that book for you. When I went looking for a tool, every app I found was an empty container you pour your own verses into. I wanted the opposite. BUILT AROUND THE BOOK'S OWN STRUCTURE • 165 passages, not arbitrary chunks. The book is divided along the NASB's own section headings, so you learn it in the units it was edited into. • Narrated end to end. Every passage read aloud, with background playback, lock-screen controls and a repeat mode — for the car, the gym, the walk. The words highlight as they are read. • Four ways through a passage. Read it, listen to it, say it out loud, then fill in the blanks from memory. • A chapter a day, matched to the date. Proverbs has thirty-one chapters and the month has thirty-one days. On the 14th you drill chapter 14 — the oldest reading plan there is — and the app keeps your streak on it. • It grades itself. The app watches how much you revealed, how many attempts you took and how closely you recited, then gives you a letter grade and tells you exactly what cost you. • Say it out loud and be heard. Recite a passage and the app checks your recall. Your voice is transcribed on your iPhone and never sent anywhere. • Room to write. Keep dated notes on any passage as you work through it. WHAT IT ISN'T • No price, no subscription, no in-app purchases • No advertising • No account to create, no sign-in • No analytics, no tracking, no data collection of any kind • No internet connection required — it works entirely offline There is no verse library here, no way to add other passages, and no plan to expand to other books. It does one thing. 31 chapters. 915 verses. 165 passages.
