Bible Seek is a tool to help build your relationship with Christ from your phone — aiming to deliver a clean reading experience and the kind of thoughtful study tools a disciple would need. Everything is on-device. No account to create, no sign-in, no cloud sync. READER: Four offline translations — *King James Version*, *American Standard Version*, *Berean Standard Bible*, and *World English Bible*. Verse-by-verse or flowing paragraph options. Red Letter edition available. Adjustable font size, themes, and auto night mode for after sunset. MARK ANYTHING: Highlight in the color of your choice. Add notes; a subtle dotted underline shows where each note lives– tap it to edit. Tag notes (prayer, promise, question, anything you like). Tap a verse for quick actions: change color, remove, or add a note. STUDY: Greek/Hebrew Word Study. Select any word within the inline wordstudy screen or the separate menu, and see the definition, transliteration, and gloss. Biblical name meanings — look up a name for the Hebrew or Greek behind it, what it means, who bore it in Scripture, and the verses where it appears. Cross-references on tap. Each verse has its own "Related" sheet if applicable. Compare versions side-by-side. See your annotations from the other translation surfaced as a badge so nothing gets buried after a version switch. KEEP A JOURNAL: Every bookmark, highlight, and note lives in the Journal. Notes show the source verse alongside your writing. Save the whole journal as a PDF for sharing or keeping. JSON backup + restore so you can move between devices safely. Recently-deleted entries linger for 7 days for easy recovery. READING PLANS: Three built-in plans: Bible in a Year, Gospels in 30 Days, New Testament in 90 Days. Build your own custom plan from any combination of books and a duration you choose. A "Continue plan" card on the home screen surfaces today's reading. Daily notification reminders at the time you choose. A celebration screen when you finish. MEMORIZE BY DOING: Memory Verses uses active recall, not passive reading. The verse appears as blanks; its words appear in a shuffled bank. Tap them in the right order to fill it in. Only when you've actually completed it does the app mark it memorized. EVERYDAY HABIT: Verse of the Day on the home screen, plus an optional iOS home-screen widget. Topics — themed verse collections on prayer, faith, grief, gratitude, forgiveness, and more. SHARE CAPABILITIES: Generate image cards of any verse or note in a range of themes — Parchment (flat/textured), Slate, Sage, and Gold — ready to drop into chats Plain quoted text with the reference attached also available. OFFLINE & PRIVATE: The full text of both translations ships inside the app. Reads anywhere — plane, mountain, basement. Your highlights, notes, and bookmarks stay on your device. No account, no analytics, no cloud. Annotations are searchable from iOS Spotlight (your data, your phone, your search). I hope this helps someone know Christ for themselves.

BibleGraph turns the Bible into an interactive graph you can explore verse by verse. Pick any verse and see everything it connects to — sectioned and color-coded by book category, so hundreds of connections stay readable at a glance. Tap any node to travel there; tap a wedge to isolate a whole category or heading. CROSS-REFERENCE MODE (free) Every verse's classic Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, Enhanced (TSKe) cross-references, weighted by community-voted relevance. Search across three complete translations — Berean Standard Bible, King James Version, and World English Bible — with support for boolean search (AND / OR / NOT), exact phrases, and prefix matching. STRONG'S MODE (Full Access) See every verse that shares the same original Greek or Hebrew word as the one you're reading — a live connection to the text behind the translation. PEOPLE & PLACES MODE (Full Access) Follow any biblical person or place through every verse that mentions them, from Abraham to Zion. Built for reading, not just reference: verse-by-verse navigation, in-context reading windows, and a Plan of Salvation section for anyone exploring what the Bible teaches about salvation.
