About this app

The Berean Standard Bible is a modern, readable translation from the original texts. Its producers have graciously released the BSB to the public domain, and this app is a convenient tool to read and study the full text. The developer (EthnosDev) has also released the source code for the app to the public domain.

The app contains no ads, does not solicit money, and does not track your personal information. It functions completely offline, so you can read it anywhere.

"Freely you have received; freely give."
Matthew 10:8 (BSB)

Ratings and reviews

Great basic bible reading app for the Berean Standard Bible, which is a modern Public Domain version. The app is free, no ads, and based on a quick check of DuckDuckGo app tracking protection it does not seem to have any trackers. The text includes the footnotes as popups so you can see them without interfering with reading the text.

Great new Bible app. I like all the books being on the home screen, and I love the way the original languages are easy to access when I want them. The developer has been very responsive to suggestions . I love that they have made it public domain. This can allow someone in another country to easily build a Bible app for their language. This is a great app.

Simple Bible with some cool features under the hood. What's amazing about this app is that it's lightweight and fast to look up texts quickly. The addition of an optional verse selector might be a handy feature to add for lengthy chapter navigation... But not a deal breaker for me. Keep up the good work!!
