Bread helps you hide God's word in your heart — one verse at a time. Unlike flashcard apps, Bread lets you practice the way memorization actually works: by speaking out loud. Record yourself reciting a verse, and Bread will score your accuracy instantly. No typing, no multiple choice — just you and the text. How it works: • Add any verse from the ESV, NLT, NIV, KJV, NKJV, or CSB • Practice at three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard • Recite out loud and see exactly where you nailed it (or stumbled) • Master a verse by scoring 90%+ on Hard mode • Keep it engraved by reviewing monthly for 4 months Stay motivated: • Track your practice streak • See your total time studied and verses mastered • Organize verses into collections by topic, book, or study plan Whether you're memorizing your first verse or your fiftieth chapter, Bread meets you where you are. Simple, focused, and built to help Scripture stick. "Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You." — Psalm 119:11
Recite

Recite helps you memorize Bible verses the way you’ll recall them: by saying them aloud. Choose a verse, hide the text, and recite it from memory. Recite listens, compares your words with the passage, and gives you an immediate accuracy score. It’s a simple, focused way to move Scripture from the page into your heart. SPEAK AND REMEMBER • Recite verses aloud using on-device speech recognition • See where your words matched or differed • Receive an immediate accuracy score • Listen to a verse before practicing • Practice by speaking or typing HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT Build confidence gradually with flexible verse-display tools. Read the complete passage, reveal selected words, use first-letter hints, or hide everything for a full memory test. SMART SCRIPTURE REVIEW Recite uses spaced repetition to help you review verses before they fade from memory. Strong recall leads to longer review intervals, while difficult verses return sooner. TRACK YOUR GROWTH • Follow your daily practice streak • View total reviews and average accuracy • See your progress for each verse • Earn badges and reach memorization milestones • Identify verses that are due for review BUILD YOUR OWN VERSE LIBRARY Begin with four ESV Romans Road passages, then add the Bible verses and longer passages you want to learn. Organize verses by topic, book, study plan, or personal goal. Group consecutive verses under the same topic to practice a longer passage in order. MAKE PRACTICE YOURS • Choose from multiple themes and reading styles • Adjust verse font, size, and visibility • Set practice reminders for your preferred time • Select standard or high-accuracy speech recognition • Enable Kids Mode for a cheerful “Well Done!” celebration and confetti PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your recitations are processed on your device. Your voice is not uploaded or shared. Your verses, recordings, scores, and progress remain private to you. The goal isn’t a perfect score. It’s to spend meaningful time in God’s Word and store it in your heart- one verse at a time.
