ERV Bible: reading offline app

Easy-to-Read Version of Holy Bible for daily study in simple English translation

Discover the Bible in Language You Use Every Day

The Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) began with a simple idea: translate Scripture so clearly that anyone could understand it. Originally developed for people learning English, this translation has become a favorite for millions who want to connect with God's Word without struggling through archaic language. Now you can carry this clear, accurate translation everywhere.

This Easy-to-Read Version Bible preserves the original meaning while using contemporary words and phrases. It's ideal for daily reading, family devotions, or anyone seeking a fresh perspective on familiar passages. The text speaks with warmth and clarity on every page.

Designed for Real Reading

A Bible app should disappear when you open it, letting you focus entirely on Scripture. That's exactly what we built. Navigation flows naturally between books and chapters. Fonts and colors were chosen after testing what actual readers prefer for extended reading sessions.

Found something meaningful? Copy any verse or share it with someone who needs encouragement. The interface responds instantly, with no lag or confusion.

Read Anywhere, Even Without Internet

Your phone goes everywhere, and now your Bible does too. Download once and the complete ERV text stays with you offline. No searching for Wi-Fi on a retreat. No data usage on your commute. Just open and read whenever you want.

Organize Your Spiritual Journey

Most apps let you highlight verses. We built tools that help you grow:

• Bookmarks with purpose – mark verses and assign colors that make sense to you
• Add personal notes – capture what a verse meant on a particular day
• Create folders – group verses by theme, topic, or however you think
• Edit anytime – your understanding grows, and your organization can too

Keep a Notebook Alongside Your Bible

Ever had a thought during reading you wished you'd written down? The notes section lives right next to Scripture. Record sermon takeaways, prayer requests, or personal reflections. Everything stays organized and searchable.

Daily Inspiration That You Control

Wake up to a verse that fits your current season. Choose which chapters feed your daily verse. Create custom collections and name them yourself. No algorithms deciding what you need.

Three Reading Plans for Different Rhythms
