NOVA makes memorizing Scripture something you actually look forward to — for kids, teens, and adults alike. HOW IT WORKS Practice verses through three engaging modes: Fill in the Blank, Full Recall, and Matching. Track your progress with XP, daily streaks, levels, and achievements as you build real, lasting memory of God's Word. BUILT FOR FAMILIES Parents can create and manage profiles for each of their children right from their own account. Every child gets a simple, bookmarkable link with a private 4-digit code — no complicated logins, no passwords to remember. Parents follow along with each child's progress without needing to practice themselves. Parents can manage their children's profiles, track their progress, and even play alongside them directly from their own device. GUIDED, AGE-APPROPRIATE LEARNING Verses are thoughtfully assigned based on age, with new sets unlocking automatically as learners level up — so the experience grows with them. COMMUNITY & ACCOUNTABILITY Join a cohort with your church or small group and see how your progress compares on shared leaderboards, or track your own personal best on the global leaderboard. BILINGUAL BY DESIGN NOVA is fully available in both English and French, with verse text and audio built for both languages from the ground up. WHY NOVA - No ads, ever - No third-party tracking - Designed with real families and educators in mind - Regularly updated with new features Whether you're memorizing your very first verse or building a lifelong habit of hiding God's Word in your heart, NOVA is built to make the journey encouraging, structured, and genuinely fun.
