Scripture Memory helps you memorize Bible verses and keep them for life — using spaced repetition that brings each verse back for review right before you'd forget it. Built around The Navigators' Topical Memory System® (TMS), with 480+ verses organized by topic — assurance of salvation, quiet time, the Word, prayer, faith, victory, and sharing Christ — plus the extended TMS Series. WHY IT WORKS • Spaced repetition (SRS) schedules reviews at the perfect moment for long-term recall • Type-to-recall testing — first letter, full word, or the whole verse • A simple daily queue with gentle goals, so a few minutes a day is enough STAY CONSISTENT • Streaks and a weekly progress strip keep momentum going • Home-screen widgets show your current verse and stats at a glance SUPPORT ACROSS VERSIONS • NIV (1984 & 2011) • iCloud sync across iPhone and iPad Start with one verse today.

Yada Verses turns Bible memorization into a simple, motivating daily adventure. "Yada" (ידע) means "to know" in Hebrew — to know the Word, by heart and for good. Learn a verse at your own pace, then let spaced repetition bring it back at the right moment to anchor it in your memory for the long term. WHAT MAKES LEARNING EFFECTIVE • Smart spaced repetition: each verse comes back just before you'd forget it. • One verse at a time: focus on the verse of the week, day after day, until you master it. • Varied exercises: fill-in-the-blank, word ordering, first letters, full typing. • Listen to the verse out loud and recite it out loud — the app checks your recall. • Automatic upkeep: your mastered verses come back at long intervals so you never lose them. STAY MOTIVATED • Set your goal (e.g. 1 verse per week) and track your progress. • Earn Talents, keep your daily streak, climb the leagues and spiritual titles up to Evangelist. • Unlock badges along your journey. MADE FOR YOU • King James Version Bible, in English. • Sign in by email or phone. • Available in French and English. Start today: one verse, a little each day, and the Word stays.
