With smartphones and tablets, we can have the entire Bible in our pocket. This means we can read a verse on the bus, during lunch or before bed, without carrying extra weight.
Are you one of those who love hearing stories? Now we have apps that narrate the Bible. Thus, we can “listen” to the Bible while taking a walk or even while cooking.
If before we depended on study groups or courses to better understand certain passages, now many applications offer explanations, comments and devotions directly on the screen.
Forget about loose papers or marking with a pen. In Bible apps, you can highlight verses, take notes, and even create reading lists.
Many applications have spaces for people to share their interpretations, doubts and stories, bringing together believers from different parts of the world.
For those who want to read the entire Bible or follow specific themes, apps help organizing reading, day after day.
Tips for choosing the app that best meets your needs
If you've already taken a look at your cell phone's app store, you may have noticed that there are many Bible apps over there. But how to choose the best?
First of all, think: do you want to read, listen or both? If you like listening while doing other things, choose an app with a narrated version. If you spend a lot of time without the internet, an app that works offline could be ideal. This way, you can read the Bible anywhere, without spending mobile data.
Some apps have features like reading plans, devotionals, notes and bookmarks. If you like to personalize your reading, you might want one of these. Do you like the New International Version, the King James Version, or another translation? See if the app offers the version you like best.
If you like sharing and discussing passages, choose an app that has an active community or that allows you to share easily. Before downloading, take a look at the ratings and comments in the app store. They can give you an idea of how the app works in practice.
Choose an app that you find easy to use and that looks easy on your eyes. After all, reading has to be enjoyable! The best way to know if the app is good for you is to test it! Download, explore, and if you don't like it, try another one.
The most important thing is to find a application that helps you to connect with the word of God the way you like. So, try it out and see what suits you best!
