BSV Bible — for people who study the Word. Bible reading, plans, notes, highlights, memory verses, and audio — all completely free, forever. No ads. No subscription nag. No tracking. Your notes never leave your device. Optional Premium adds three deep study tools for one lifetime price: Greek and Hebrew word study, cross-references, and inductive marking. One purchase, every device, every future update. — FREE FOR EVERYONE — • The complete Bible in the Biblical Standard Version (BSV) — faithful to the original languages • Daily reading plans • Daily Proverb with a brief reflection • Memory verses with progress tracking • Notes, bookmarks, and color-coded highlights • Native audio playback for any chapter • Five reading themes (minimal, parchment, deep dark, and more) • Compare translations side by side • Backup and restore your entire study library • Holy Land map with journey overlays — Jesus' ministry, Exodus to Canaan, Abraham's travels • Reading reminders that live on your device • Share any verse as a clean image — PREMIUM ($9.99 LIFETIME) — WORD STUDY — Tap any word to see its Greek or Hebrew root, transliteration, Strong's number, and a careful definition. The original languages get to speak. CROSS-REFERENCES — Five Scripture-interprets-Scripture connections for any verse, each with a short explanation of the link. Built to favor direct biblical connections over speculative theology. INDUCTIVE MARKING — Mark words across the whole Bible by category — key terms, repeated phrases, characters, time markers, locations. Categories travel with you from passage to passage so you can see structure and theme at a glance. — ABOUT THE BSV — The Biblical Standard Version is an original translation by Straight Truth Press, built from a let-Scripture-interpret-Scripture hermeneutic. The translation principles are deliberate: baptizo is rendered "immerse," ekklesia is rendered "assembly," hagioi is rendered "God's people." We don't smuggle denominational baggage into the original meanings — we let the words mean what they mean. — PRIVACY-FIRST — No ads. No tracking. No analytics SDKs. Your notes, highlights, and reading history live only on your device. The only data we record is whether you have an active premium entitlement — and even that is anonymous. — SUPPORT — Email support@straighttruthpress.com — every message read, every reasonable feature request considered. Read deeper. Study honest. Welcome to BSV Bible.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mispar at none against BSV Bible's 1. BSV Bible's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
