About

Bible Memory & Prayer Journal

Features
Read full description

Remember the Bible verses that matter to you, and keep a private place to pray. Start with whichever you need today. Choose a verse and read it through. Practice with a few words hidden, then try the whole verse from memory and see how you did. The next day it comes back, starting with just the reference. Once you've recalled all of it without help on a later day, you can mark it memorized. Memorized verses stay in your collection, and you can revisit them whenever you like. The app will suggest one now and then, but nothing piles up. Prefer flashcards, first-letter hints, or typing it out? Those are here too. Your prayer journal is just for you. Write your prayers or say them aloud, keep them organized and easy to find, and mark the ones that have been answered. Spoken prayers are saved on your iPhone; the app never uploads or transcribes them, and there's no AI involved. Each day brings a verse to read, or to hear spoken by your iPhone. There's a free listening library too, and you can turn a verse into an image to save or share. Verse packs and guided plans are there when you want more, along with simple habits, a reminder if you'd like one, and a look back at your progress. Translations include BSB and KJV in English, plus Spanish, German, and Romanian editions where available. The app itself is in English. You don't need an email to get started. Writing and recording prayers is free and unlimited, and so are habits and listening. You can learn a few verses at a time for free, and verses you've memorized never count toward that. Bible Memory Pro lets you learn more verses at once and adds premium packs and plans, one new Pro verse pack each month, and multiple custom reminders. See current options and prices in the app. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage them in your Apple Account settings. Restore Purchases is in Settings. Your prayers, habit names, and typed answers stay on your device. The Privacy Policy explains the limited data the app does collect.
