About Scriptly: Bible Notes
Scriptly is a Bible you can write in. Read it in your own language, hear it read aloud, and keep what you think beside the verse that prompted it — written by hand with Apple Pencil, or typed. No account, no ads, nothing to buy. READ • English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish and Thai, with several translations in each. • Flowing text at whatever size reads easily, or a real page — ruled, squared, dotted or blank — with a margin wide enough to think in. • Ask in your own words: “where does Jesus talk about worry” finds the passage. LISTEN • Chapters read aloud in English and Chinese, and the Thai New Testament, with a choice of readers. • On recordings with verse timings, the page follows the voice. • It keeps playing while you read on, or with the screen locked. STUDY • Tap a word to see the Greek or Hebrew behind it, its dictionary entry, and its grammar in plain words. • Find every other place that word appears — or only that exact form. • Cross-references on every verse, and study notes on the history and customs the first readers knew. • Gather verses, notes and word studies into a study, then print it as a PDF or export it to Word. EVERY MORNING • My Utmost for His Highest and Daily Light on the Daily Path, with a page to answer them on. • Short reading plans you can actually finish. None of them start in Genesis. KEEP WHAT YOU THINK • Pen, highlighter and eraser in your own colours. Circle a stroke and scribble over it to erase. • Highlight a verse or type a note, tag it, and find it again in a notes list arranged by book. YOURS, AND PRIVATE • No account needed, and no ads. • Everything you mark, type or write follows you between your iPhone and iPad through your own private iCloud, in a container we can neither see nor reach. Sign in with Google too, and it is kept in your Google Drive as well. • Anonymous counts of chapters opened — never the text, never your handwriting, never who you are — feed the “Around the world” screen, and can be turned off in Settings. On iPhone and iPad. Apple Pencil is a pleasure, not a requirement.
What’s new
Version 1.6.1 · Updated October 16, 2026
New: a Today widget for your Home Screen, with the morning's reading and the next day of your plan. Choose My Utmost for His Highest or Daily Light in Edit Widget. Easier to read: larger, clearer menu text, a Menu text size setting in Appearance, labels under the main buttons, and a Today's reading card that takes you to your plan in one tap. Devotions can be read aloud. Four new reading plans: Advent, Lent and Easter, the Gospels in 40 days, and M'Cheyne's Bible in a year. Studies: gather passages into a paper, then print it or export it as Word. Tag your notes, and search them in a notes list with a heading per book and a date on every entry. Tap a grammar code to see what it means, and find every other place a word form appears. Chinese readers get the Theology of Work commentary. Tell a friend about Scriptly from Settings. Fixed: settings lost on sync, plan reminders that never arrived, and the page following the reading in the flowing reader.
