Pocket Bible

Pocket Bible starts from how you're feeling, not from a chapter and verse you already have to know. Tell it you're anxious, grieving, grateful, or one of 27 other honest starting points, and it hands you real Bible passages that speak to it — each with a short reflection and a prayer, not just a citation. WHAT'S INSIDE • Topics — pick a feeling, get matched Bible passages with a short reflection and a prayer for each one. • Bible — read Scripture book by book and chapter by chapter, with available translations for the supported languages. • Readings & Reflection — see the Verse of the Day and daily Catholic readings with date navigation and reflections. • Personalities — explore 280 people from Scripture through concise introductions and linked Bible references. • Stories — browse 146 Bible stories and parables, with summaries, morals, reflections, and linked Scripture references. • Bookmarks and saved verses — keep your place and revisit passages. • Saved verses — keep a running list of passages that meant something to you. LANGUAGES The interface is available in English, German, French, Hindi, Italian, Marathi, and Portuguese. Bundled Bible translations are available in those seven languages, with book coverage varying by translation. The app uses English text when a matching translation is unavailable. See the in-app "About & Sources" screen for each translation and license. WORKS OFFLINE, COLLECTS NOTHING Scripture, stories, readings, and reflections ship with the app. There's no account, no sign-in, and no internet permission at all — the app literally cannot send data anywhere. Saved verses and bookmarks live in a local database on your device and nowhere else. Pocket Bible is an independent, unofficial devotional companion — not a publication of any church or Bible society. It draws on public-domain and openly licensed Bible translations; full attribution for each one is in the app's About & Sources screen.
