July Featured Plans

Is Your Gospel Big Enough?

Institute for Faith, Works & Economics, 7 days

The Gospel reaches beyond forgiving our sins, extending into every aspect of our lives. See how (and why) as you explore bigger questions: "Why am I here?" "What's the point of my salvation?"

The Discovery: Exploring God's Call on Your Life

Angela Sanders and the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, 35 days

Walk alongside biblical examples of people who committed their lives to Christ—then, through study questions and deep reflection, imagine what that same commitment might look like in your own life.

12-Study Devotional by Hillsong Young & Free

Drawing on lyrics from Hillsong Young & Free's newest album, Youth Revival, this devotional helps you explore your heart's motives, inspiring you to use your life to pursue things that last.

Thrive Moms: Loved

Kara-Kae James and Thrive Moms, 6 days

When pouring your love into your family threatens to run your tank dry, refill it with reminders from Scripture about how extravagantly God loves you, how passionately He cherishes you.

Discover practical, biblical principles that will help you stay connected to God by being intentional in your relationships—even when the busyness of everyday life is constantly working to distract you.

Get the newest update to the Bible App for Android

Bible App for Android update:

Listen more, see more, and do more offline.

At YouVersion, we never stop working to bring you the best Bible experience we can. And while we don't usually announce every update we make to the Bible App, the features in our latest Android release are worth celebrating. (Many of these same features are also available in the most recent release of the Bible App for iOS.) Tap below to update now, or keep reading to see why we're so excited!

Update Now

New Bible App for Android audio features

Listen how you want, however long you want.

All-new audio Bible controls let you adjust your playback speed.1 Make God's Word the soundtrack to your life: start the Bible App reading to you, and use the new Timer to tell it how long to play.


1 Adjustable playback speed available on devices running Android version 6.0 (Marshmallow) and newer.

Breathe new life into your tablet.

Enjoy the same features you already love on your Android phone, now optimized to take full advantage of your tablet.2 Study versions side by side with the all-new Split Screen parallel Bible feature for Android. This is the best Bible experience we've ever offered for Android tablets, with better performance and smoother transitions between screens.


2 Although optimized for Android tablets running versions 5.0 and 5.1 (Lollipop) and 6.0 (Marshmallow), all versions will see noticeable improvements.
 
Plan 'Day' in the new Bible App for Android

Your Plans for today, made clear.

We've made the 'Day' view for Bible Plans simpler than ever. Now when you tap on one of your subscribed Plans, the Bible App shows you everything you need to flow smoothly through today's selection: devotional content, Bible passages, calendar, and more.

Connect with Scripture… even offline.

Great opportunities to engage daily with God's Word often happen when you don't have a reliable Internet connection: on trains, on airplanes, or when you're enjoying the outdoors. That's why many Bible App features now also work offline. Sometime when you do have a connection, take just a few minutes to download a few Bible versions and subscribe to a Bible Plan (or several), and you'll have them whenever you need them, even offline.3 And when you're able to reconnect again later, the Bible App will sync your offline activity to your YouVersion account, making it available on all your devices.


3 Audio Bibles not available offline.
 

Updating is easy.

This new release also includes several other improvements: bottom navigation that conforms to Google's Material design specification, more refined control over your language settings, and a smoother sign in / sign up experience. Even with all of these improvements, we still managed to reduce the app's size! How can you take advantage of all these great new features?
