Gutenberg Project vs HopeScroll

【Premier Reader】: This app costs $6, and our users are paying for it each and every day. Why? It is the best Gutenberg Reader: beautiful images, elegant formatting, and graceful page turning. Contents live from Project Gutenberg with last-minute update, more than 60,000 most important books ever published in history. Plus more than 7,000 human-read audio books. 【Audio books】: There are more than 7,000 human-read audio books, all for the price of a cup of coffee. Alternatively you could pay $3-5 for a single audiobook as some of the "Audio app" would ask you to pay. 【Book recommendation】: Every app gives you a list of book recommendation, but where did they find the list? dreamed up in 'lala' land? We base our recommendation solidly on big data, tens of millions of pages actually read by our users. Downloading or page flipping has no effect on the ranking of our recommendation list. 【Number of Books】: No other apps have more Gutenberg books, and many competitors are missing some classic Gutenberg books, and many competitors use outdated data from Gutenberg. 【Reading】: Texts and images are presented by a sophisticated book reader: beautiful presentation, graceful page turning, and the most intelligent Table of Contents (better than any other book reader for the same book). 【Read-along】: Audio and Text are synchronized when possible. You can read, listen, or read-Along, and switch between them at will. 【Export】: Export a book together with bookmarks and the notes you inserted into the book to anyone and any device, or save it i the cloud (google drive, one drive, or iCloud). * The PAID version "Gutenberg Books" allows unlimited reading and listening.

Doomscrolling, redeemed. HopeScroll takes the one thing the endless feed got right — the effortless scroll — and puts scripture in it. One verse fills the screen. Swipe up for the next. Nothing autoplays, nothing interrupts, and there is no feed but scripture. ALL FIVE VOLUMES, FULLY OFFLINE 41,995 verses across 87 books: Old Testament, New Testament, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price. Every word ships inside the app. No account, no sign-in, no network. It works on a plane, in a canyon, or with the wifi off. SCRIPTURE QUEST — A DAILY GAME A new quest every morning, the same for everyone. Read a verse and find where it lives: the book and the chapter. Five questions, from a warm-up to really hard, with a quest for each volume — plus Scripture Stories, where you get a story, event, or person from anywhere in the scriptures and find the chapter it happens in. Every guess scores out of 100, getting close still counts, and each one gets a reaction, some kind and some a little sassy. Share your score with friends as an image or a row of colored squares without spoiling the answers, then keep your streak going tomorrow. READING, NOT INTERFACE Tap once to bring up the controls and again to send them away, so nothing sits over the words while you read. Drag the rail on the left to scrub through a chapter. Read in New York, Iowan Old Style, Georgia, or San Francisco, and switch between light and dark with one tap. Verses, chapters, and books check themselves off as you go — you never have to tell it what you read. DISCOVER 70 themes in 10 groups — faith, hope, repentance, covenants, temples, the Atonement, trials, family, and more — each a hand-checked list of passages rather than a raw word search. Open a theme and it becomes its own scroll. Search every volume at once, by phrase or by theme name. MAKE IT YOURS • Highlight any run of words in five colors • Write a note on any verse • Named bookmarks you move along as you read • Favorite what you want to come back to • Pin any verse to a home screen widget • Share any verse as a clean image, text, or link A PLAN YOU CAN ACTUALLY KEEP Choose a volume and either a date to finish by or an amount to read each day. HopeScroll works out the rest and tells you where to start — not where you stopped. See the month at a glance, with the chapter to reach printed on every day, your streak, and anything still left behind you. QUIET PROGRESS A ring for each volume. A streak that is honest about the days you missed. And a badge each time you finish a volume, earned by reading the last verse rather than handed to you for showing up. HOPESCROLL STUDIO Turn any verse into something worth sharing. More than 30 fonts, colors, gradients, textures, over 120 photographs or your own, and sizes for posts, stories, and wallpapers. Studio is a single optional purchase — no subscription — and shared with your family through Family Sharing. Everything else in HopeScroll is free. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION No accounts. No ads. No trackers, no analytics, no third-party SDKs of any kind. Your highlights, notes, progress, and quest scores live on your device and nowhere else. Export them to a file whenever you want, and bring them back on a new phone.
