What's new in this version: • Search in Bible — the search sheet now opens cleanly on iPhone and iPad with the input visible right below the notch. The bottom tab is renamed "Search in Bible" so it's clearer what it does. • Frozen book tab — the book, chapter, and version chip stay locked at the top of the reader while verses scroll beneath. You always know where you are. • Compare two Bible versions side by side — read two translations at once and see how each renders the same verse in real time. • Tap-friendly top bar — the hamburger menu, dark-mode toggle, and notifications bell now register every tap on iPhone and iPad. No more frozen buttons. • Cleaner reader chrome — the header and frozen book tab are fully opaque, so nothing behind them shows through. Sharp, focused reading in both light and dark modes. • Fresh new app icon. • iPad reading upgrade — verses now sit in a comfortable, centered column so long chapters are easier on the eyes.

1. Side-by-side Bible version comparison — Line up two translations verse-by-verse (KJV alongside ESV, NIV, NKJV, ASV, and more) inside the reader. See how the wording differs at a glance without ever leaving the passage you're on. 2. Frozen book & chapter bar — The KJV / book-name / chapter row now stays locked to the top of the reader as you scroll. Switch translations, jump chapters, or open your profile from anywhere in a passage — one tap, no scrolling back up. 3. Live chapter title in the header — Instead of a generic "Bible" label, the header now shows exactly where you are (Genesis 3, Romans 8, Psalm 23), and it updates instantly as you swipe or use the chapter picker. 4. Rebuilt top toolbar — Bigger, more accurate tap targets for the hamburger menu, notification bell, and search. No more taps landing on the wrong control or feeling stuck on iPhone or iPad. 5. Full iPad experience — Tuned for every iPad from mini to 12.9" Pro. Portrait, both landscapes, and upside-down all supported, with a comfortable reading column so text no longer stretches edge-to-edge. 6. Brand-new app icon — A refreshed home-screen icon that matches the reading experience inside. 7. Notification prompt polish — The "Open Settings" reminder no longer reappears after you've dismissed it. Your choice sticks the first time. 8. Silky pinned scrolling — GPU-composited freezing for the top book bar keeps long chapters buttery-smooth, even on older iPhones. 9. Cleaner reader seams — Retired the faint bleed line that used to peek between the top toolbar and the book bar. Solid, tight, quiet visuals from top to bottom.

1. The Bible book tab now stays pinned at the top The book name, chapter number, and version (KJV, etc.) stay locked in view while you scroll through verses. Your place at the top of the page never scrolls away again. 2. Current book and chapter now show in the app header The top bar of the Bible reader instantly displays exactly which book and chapter you're reading — you always know where you are, even when returning from another screen. 3. Bigger, easier Classic ↔ Modern switch The layout toggle in the top bar has larger, more reliable tap targets. Switching between Classic and Modern is now a clean tap every time — no more missed taps or accidental double-switches. 4. Cleaner hamburger menu The menu icon flips to a clear "close" (X) when the menu is open, closes reliably every single time, and never leaves an invisible overlay stuck on screen after you dismiss it. 5. Notification bell now works everywhere Unread counts, the notification badge, and the notification inbox all load correctly on both Classic and Modern layouts. Tapping a notification opens the right screen with no misses. 6. Fewer notification permission popups The system "Open Settings to re-enable notifications" alert now shows at most once per install. Once you've made your choice, the app never nags you about it again. 7. Forced updates removed You will never be locked out of the app for running an older version. Read Scripture on your own schedule — updates are optional, not a wall between you and God's Word.
