Features & Capabilities

Read Scripture helps you read the Bible for yourself through a year-long reading plan, complemented by engaging videos from the Bible Project that explain every book, major gospel themes, and practical tips for reading well.

The experience is housed in a beautifully designed app and is suitable for personal study or group study. Scripture quotations come from the ESV Bible (with permission) to support thoughtful, accessible Scripture study.

User Reviews

Read Scripture is widely praised for its digestible, chronological Bible flow, daily bite-sized readings, and Bible Project videos that illuminate themes and help reading through the whole Bible in a year. Users also value the portable, plan-driven format and the sense of progress tracking. Repeated drawbacks include data loss after updates and new login/email requirements, captions that can’t be turned off, a missing dark mode, and various stability issues (crashes, the app not opening, and progress not loading). Overall, it remains a strong resource for guided Bible reading when these issues are addressed.
Pros
  • Digestible, chronological Bible flow with titles and bite-sized daily readings.
  • Bible Project videos provide clear explanations of themes and help connect each book to the overall narrative.
  • Year-long reading plan / daily structure makes it easy to read through the entire Bible.
  • Handy and portable reading that’s easier than carrying a physical Bible; supports on-the-go study.
  • Strong educational and motivational value for both new and long-time readers.
Cons
  • Progress can be lost or reset after updates; some users are forced to sign in or provide an email, wiping reading progress.
  • Video captions/closed captions appear by default or cannot be turned off, which can be distracting.
  • Lack of a dark mode and requests for a dark UI are frequently noted by users.
  • Stability and data issues after updates (crashes, app won’t open, progress not loading, and occasional content truncation).

This chronological flow with titles for major events makes the Bible so much more digestible! Thank you so much.

Wonderful way to read the Bible. Really enjoying the format and the daily readings. Thanks!

I really appreciate this app. I found it during this surge in AI and have found that reading the Bible through this app combined with having AI to ask all my questions to (with a deep critical eye to its responses) has really opened my eyes about the Bible and completely shifted my relationship with scripture. I’m also able to piece together historical details and really get a sense of biblical times and God’s purpose and intentions. I feel this is really important in today’s world where god and the Bible are really being trivialized. There are a couple of things I wish for: 1-a scroll feature on the side so I can see how much of the section is left to read. 2-the ability to check off chapters as I read them. I get that these chunks are meant to be read in one sitting but life means i usually have to break it up more than that. Not to mention, I really go in with AI and have some deep and specific questions so it takes me longer anyway. So I’d like to not have to scroll through 4 chapters m trying to remember my place each time.
