Pear Bible
The shared bible app
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Read and share the Bible daily!
Pear Bible helps you come back to God's Word daily by reading the Bible with friends. Pear's tandem reading plans keep you and a friend accountable to each other. You can't read ahead of your partner, and your partner can't read without you. You both need to read each day to continue the plan. As you read together in a shared bible, share highlights and thoughts directly in the text. Over time, fill your shared bibles with encouragement, discipleship, and testimony so you can look back and remember God's truth in every season.

MISSION
Pear Bible's mission is to help people read the Bible regularly or for the first time. We believe this is enabled by making Scripture easy to engage with, and easy to share, wherever you are. The reading experience on Pear is born out of these two things. The result: we leverage technology to provide highly interactive bibles with reading plans that create real accountability and connection.
Widgets! Never miss a day with today's reading and your tree on your home screen with the Pear widget.
