Bible.is for iPhone: Read, Listen to, and Share the Bible

Posted on Jun 28, 2010 in Bible.is for iPhone, Release Notes

After months of work, Bible.is for iPhone is now available the App Store! We’re excited that the app will allow people to read, listen to, and share the Bible with friends and family around the world. (By the way, Bible.is for Android and Bible.is for Facebook are also in the works, along with several other goodies!)

Right out of the gate, Bible.is for iPhone offers a reading and listening experience that will enrich your Bible experience. Here’s a short list, though we recommend you check it out directly on iTunes:

  • Listen and read in a unified interface – to over 20 languages!
  • Share any verse on Facebook
  • Bookmark, highlight (in 4 colors), and add notes with one tap
  • Inspire focus with Programs
  • Enjoy an intuitive interface

This release is the first of many. Our goal is for each version of the app to improve the way we experience the Bible via reading, listening, and sharing. We hope you enjoy the app and are eager to hear your valuable input.
