BibleMarker
Read full descriptionHide full description
BibleMarker is a deep Bible study app built around the inductive method: observe, interpret, apply. Read Scripture in multiple translations, mark key words, add verse notes, and build structured studies that stay private on your device. MARK WHAT MATTERS Create keyword markings with colors, underlines, and custom symbols. BibleMarker can automatically match keywords across chapters and translations, with case-sensitive matching so you can distinguish "LORD" from "Lord." Dismiss false positives, add notes to any verse, and create section headings to organize the passage as you read. RECORD WHAT YOU SEE Track people, places, and times as you read. Create custom observation lists around any theme or concept. Every note and annotation stays anchored to the passage you're studying. SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE View places on an interactive map. See time expressions on a timeline. Fill out interpretation and application worksheets. Write chapter summaries and book overviews. Track themes across your study. STRONG'S CONCORDANCE Tap words in the NASB to see Strong's numbers and the original Hebrew or Greek โ helpful for word studies and deeper textual analysis. MULTIPLE TRANSLATIONS ASV is included and ready to read offline the moment you open the app. Download 25+ additional translations from the in-app library, including NASB 2020, NASB 1995, KJV, YLT, LEB, Berean Standard Bible, and more. Multiple languages are supported, including Spanish, French, and German. Compare up to 3 translations side-by-side with synchronized scrolling. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE Your study data is stored locally on your device. Downloaded translations work offline. No account required, no data sent to any server. Free. No subscription.
MannaForMe
Read full descriptionHide full description
MannaForMe is a free Bible app built around three things: reading Scripture, asking real questions about it, and seeing where it happened. READ Six translations, one tap apart โ Berean Standard Bible, World English Bible, King James Version, NET, NIV and NKJV. Adjustable text size, chapter-by-chapter navigation across book boundaries, and your place saved so you can pick up where you left off on any device. ASK Ask about a passage, a person, or a question of faith, and get an answer drawn from Scripture and named commentary โ with every source shown, so you can check it rather than take it on trust. If an answer leans on Matthew Henry or Keil-Delitzsch, you can open the passage it drew from and judge for yourself. SEE Maps of the places in the chapter you are reading, plus more than a hundred public-domain and openly licensed illustrations and maps: the tabernacle and its furnishings, Gustave Dore's engravings, purpose-made maps of the Gospels and Paul's journeys. Every image carries its source and license. NOTES AND BOOKMARKS Keep notes anchored to a passage, bookmark what you want to return to, and search the text. FREE, AND STAYING THAT WAY No ads. No subscription. No paid tier, now or later. No trackers or analytics of any kind. MannaForMe is funded by donations on the website, never in the app. WHAT IT WILL NOT DO It will not counsel you. When a message suggests someone may be in danger, the app answers with real helplines instead of commentary โ and that check runs before any AI sees the message, so it cannot be skipped by an outage or a model getting it wrong. Your conversations and notes are private to your account and are never sold, shared, or used to train anything. You can delete your account, and everything attached to it, from inside the app.
