CivBites is American civics in bite-sized lessons, written in plain language.

Eleven chapters. Fifty-one short lessons. A 100-question quiz bank drawn from the U.S. citizenship test and key civics content. Everything ships in the app and works offline.

Built for adults who never had time for civics class, students preparing for the citizenship test or AP Government, and anyone who wants to understand how their country runs.


WHAT'S INSIDE

Foundations of the Republic: the Declaration, the Articles of Confederation, the Constitutional Convention, the Federalist Papers

The Constitution, Article by Article: all seven Articles, the key clauses (Commerce, Due Process, Supremacy, Equal Protection), and how the document is interpreted

The Three Branches: Congress, the Presidency, the federal courts, and the system of checks and balances

The Bill of Rights: every amendment from First to Tenth, with what each one protects

Amendments 11–27: the Civil War amendments, women's suffrage, civil rights, term limits, and how the Constitution gets changed

How a Law is Made: the bill-to-law journey, the filibuster, presidential vetoes, and what kills most legislation

Federalism: what federal, state, tribal, and local governments do (and don't do)

Elections & Voting: federal and state elections, the Electoral College, primaries, voter registration, voting methods, campaign finance, redistricting, and how votes are counted

Rights & Civic Duties: what you're entitled to, jury service, taxes, and what's asked of you in return

Landmark Supreme Court Cases: twenty rulings that reshaped American life, from Marbury v. Madison to the present

Civil Society & the Press: the fourth estate, interest groups, and political parties


WHY CIVBITES

Most civics resources are either textbooks (too long) or social media posts (too shallow). CivBites sits in between: short enough to read on a coffee break, deep enough to teach you something. Every lesson is a few minutes long. Each one stands on its own, so you can read in order or jump to whatever you want to learn next.

The Constitution runs about 4,500 words. CivBites covers it, the 27 amendments and the Supreme Court rulings that decided what they mean.


FEATURES

51 individual lessons, in eleven chapters of 12 to 38 minutes

Custom diagrams for the three branches, federalism, the bill-to-law process, and the Electoral College

Light and dark themes

Founding documents quick-reference

Quiz mode with progress tracking, instant explanations, and full review

Works offline. The app holds no network permission, so it cannot open a connection of its own.

No ads, no tracking, no accounts, no data collection


FOR

New voters. New citizens. Citizenship-test takers. AP Government students. Anyone who is tired of yelling at the news without knowing how the system works. People who never had a real civics class and want one. Parents who want their kids to grow up knowing this.


Chapter I and Chapter IX are free for everyone, along with the full 100-question quiz. A one-time purchase of Full Access unlocks the remaining nine chapters and every future addition. There is no subscription.
Know how your government works. 51 civics lessons and a 100-question quiz.
