BibleGate vs Sermon Sidekick

You check your phone 144 times a day. You spend 5+ hours scrolling. But how much time do you spend in Scripture? BibleGate flips the script: your distracting apps stay locked until you've spent time in the Bible. No willpower needed, just a simple trade. Read God's Word, earn screen time. HOW IT WORKS • Choose which apps to block (social media, games, whatever distracts you) • Read Scripture and answer short questions to earn minutes in your Time Bank • Your apps unlock when you have time available • Time runs out? Read more to unlock again READ THE BIBLE • Read freely: any book, chapter, or verse, verse by verse, anytime • Verse of the Day: earn minutes with daily Scripture • Chapter of the Week: earn up to 35 minutes with a featured chapter • Listen along with read-aloud and lock-screen controls • See how much of the Bible you've read in Bible Stats • Earn from any chapter by answering questions as you read (Pro) GROW IN YOUR FAITH (Pro) • 11 guided studies: How to Read the Bible, How to Pray with Scripture, Apologetics, How to Worship, The Eucharist, The Church Fathers, Church History, The Councils, The Dead Sea Scrolls, The Didache, and The Reformation • Guided journeys through books of the Bible • Devotionals from voices across church history, like Brother Lawrence, Augustine, and Julian of Norwich COMMUNITY • A prayer board to share requests and pray for one another • Each month BibleGate gives to ministries. Pro subscriptions help fund it, and Pro members vote on how the giving is shared, with a receipt for every gift FEATURES • Smart app blocking powered by Screen Time • Reading streaks with Grace Days • A weekly rest day: one day a week, just rest • Home screen widget and Live Activity for your Time Bank • Red letter text, favorites, and several translations • Read the Bible offline • Available in English and Portuguese WHY IT WORKS Most Bible apps rely on your motivation. BibleGate creates a simple system: want to scroll? Read first. We keep earned screen time modest on purpose. The goal is more time in God's Word, not more time on your feed. It's not about guilt; it's about putting God first, every day. The average person will spend 21 years of their life on screens. What if some of that went to Scripture instead? —— SUBSCRIPTION PLANS BibleGate is free with full Bible reading, Verse of the Day, Chapter of the Week, app blocking, streak tracking, and the prayer board.
