Pax Bible
Read full descriptionHide full description
The Pax Bible apps offer many cool features, yet appear modest and straightforward. Free of charge and ad-free. Ten Bible translations are pre-installed, and over 2000 more in over 800 languages can be easily imported. The app itself is currently available in 6 languages. The iOS app offers the full range of functions also when offline. A login or a registration is not necessary. One of the outstanding features is the comparison function. This allows two translations to be read synchronously side by side, in the same or a different language. If the selected translations contain the Strong numbers for the Hebrew and Greek root words, tapping on a word will also highlight the corresponding word in the other column. The search function offers simple yet powerful options, such as searching for multiple words that must be close to each other, regardless of their order. When the comparison function is active, both translations are searched simultaneously. The words or parts of sentences found are highlighted in color. In addition, individual words, verses or chapters can be marked with freely definable colors. For words, you can choose whether they should be displayed accordingly in just one verse, in one chapter or in the entire Bible. Thanks to the Strong numbers, the colors of the words in other translations are also displayed. Other functions include: • Highlight Jesus' words in color • Extensive list of parallel passages • Searchable notes on verses • Roll the dice to select a "random" verse • Reading plans (e.g. PowerHour) • Create QR codes: If these are pictured from a screen with the camera app, the installed Pax Bible app or otherwise a browser opens at the selected location • Read aloud function (not available for all languages) • Dimmed mode • Bible statistics with all words, sorted by frequency • Super fast None of the functions mentioned are presented in an intrusive way, so it is easy to focus on God's word, which is the main purpose of the Pax Bible apps. May God touch many hearts through the Pax Bible apps!
