The Bible + Friendships = Amazing!

Ever since Bible App 5 launched, the YouVersion community has been sharing how much you enjoy interacting with friends right inside the app. Bible App 5 helps you engage with God's Word more than ever before—through your relationships.

Invite Contacts

The latest Bible App update on Android and iOS lets you add friends straight from your device. Just tap "Friends" from the main menu, then [Find Friends]. The Bible App automatically suggests friends who already have YouVersion accounts. You can also tap "Contacts" to invite anyone in your contact list to download the Bible App.

Closer to God & Each Other

From all across the YouVersion community, stories are pouring in: people telling us how much they love and appreciate Bible App 5. But they're not talking about icons or menus or features. No, what they're excited about is what's happening in their relationships—with God and with each other.

"This is the first time we're reading the Bible together, so it's bringing us closer, helping me to understand my husband better... helping make our marriage stronger."
—Petal

"My husband and I have more accountability to be in the word on a daily basis. We use the Bible app to encourage one another and to grow together in our marriage in new ways. It's hard to argue with someone or put them down when you know that they know what you have been reading in the Bible and have you are being challenged."
—Heather

"My unborn daughter was recently diagnosed with Spina-Bifida. We've been through a lot...Between the concern for our daughter, the constant moving around from house to house and hospital to hospital, and the financial strain, the Bible has been essential to our sanity. I have been sharing notes and highlights with my wife through this app...that has helped us stay together in our spiritual journey through these difficult times."
—Seth
