Read the whole Bible, one verse at a time. A quiet place to read Scripture, keep your place, journal what you hear, and open a deep dive on any verse. dewfall opens where you left off and moves in order: Genesis 1, then 2, then 3 so you never have to remember your spot or wonder where to start. When the names and numbers pile up, tap "Let God decide" for one verse at random. What you can do: • Read cover to cover, chapter by chapter. dewfall remembers exactly where you stopped and picks you right back up. • Open a deep dive on any verse or whole chapter — warm, plain-spoken commentary, written with AI (Anthropic's Claude) and grounded in trusted sources, cross-references, and the original Hebrew and Greek, with every source shown in a References tab. • Journal on any verse. Sit with it, write what comes. Your entries stay private. • Highlight the lines that stay with you — in the verse and in the deep dive. • Find it all again in your Library — every verse you've journaled or highlighted, searchable by words or by what it's about. • Search the whole Bible — by a phrase, a name, or the idea you're chasing. • Watch your journey take shape — a map of all 66 books, verses read, journal entries, streaks, and the rhythm of when you read, all the way to a finish-the-Bible celebration. • Read alongside friends — follow their journeys, see what they're reading, and share what you've highlighted, with clear controls over who sees what. • Read in your language — multiple translations, each in its own tongue, with the app in the language you choose. On iPhone and iPad, dewfall reads offline too. Download a translation once and keep reading on a plane or off the grid — anything you write syncs back when you're online again. Reading the Bible is free, always. So is reading any deep dive that already exists. Sign in only when you want to save any of it — your place, your journals, and your highlights. No passwords to remember. Come read. Keep your place, sit with each verse, and let the whole story open up slowly. Terms of Use: https://dewfall.app/en/terms
