Unfold is a Bible study app designed to give you everything you need to study God's Word, without getting in the way of studying God's Word.
TAP THE VERSE
When a verse stops you, tap it. A commentary note opens right there in the passage — no second app required. These are more than 1,000 notes Neil Broere has gathered over fifteen years from sermon outlines, classes taught around the world, and the margins of his own Bibles, alongside trusted voices from church history. Some verses also include a video devotional.
GO DEEPER WITHOUT LEAVING THE PAGE
Tap Deep Dive and the rest of the study tools are one tap from the text:
- Nearly 13,800 word studies — what the original Hebrew or Greek word means, how it's used elsewhere, and how teachers from church history have understood it
- An interlinear, so you can see the original word lined up with the English
- Hyperlinked cross references that slide open, let you read, and close again without losing your place
- Book Breakdown and Context — each book of the Bible at a glance, its place on the biblical timeline, and an answer to "Where is Jesus in this book?"
A READING PLAN YOU WON'T STALL OUT ON
The Unfold reading plan divides the Bible into ten reading streams and moves you through them one chapter at a time — a chapter from the first stream, then the second, on down the line, then back to the top. It has been refined over the past fifteen years by Neil, a pastor, writer, and Bible teacher, and it's deliberately designed so that you experience the full scope of Scripture. You're never more than a few days from a psalm, a Gospel, an epistle, or a prophetic book. And passages you'd never have read close together start explaining each other. Scripture sheds light on Scripture, and the Word begins to unfold.
There's no schedule to fall behind on. The plan isn't tied to dates — it waits for you. Open the app and your next chapter is right where you left it, whether you read yesterday or three weeks ago.
A JOURNAL THAT KEEPS WHAT YOU FIND
Your notes link to the verses that prompted them. Add photos, sort entries into folders, or record a voice memo when typing is too slow. Every chapter ends with a reflection question, and your answer goes straight to the Journal. Give it a year and you'll have a record of what God has been saying to you, in your own words.
FREEDOM WHEN YOU WANT IT
Explore Mode lets you go anywhere in the Bible — revisit a chapter, chase a reference, sit in one book for a week. And when you're ready to jump back into the reading plan, Resume Plan puts you back exactly where you left off.
READ TOGETHER
Invite your spouse, family, or friends to read alongside you and share notes on the passages you're in.

Each time I open the app to do some reading, I can’t help but notice that the app definitely “feels” cozier and warmer somehow than when I open the regular Bible app. It feels personal. It feels like it’s designed to stoke the fire of study in my heart and encourages me to linger a little longer in The Word and in His presence. I don’t think it’s only because of its aesthetic (which IS really cool), but the heart behind the app is definitely coming through. All of the commentary and word studies are so helpful to unpack God’s word and go deeper into scripture. It will bless you, transform your time of study, and deepen your relationship with Jesus!
Developer Response
Thank you so much for the 5-star review...and for the kind words! We've worked hard on the aesthetic and wanted the app to be exactly how you described it. So glad to hear it encourages you to "linger a little longer in The Word and His presence"!!

After many months of trying to find the right app that helps me study AND retain AND understand God’s word, Unfold is the best app that i have found, and i plan on sticking with it for a very long time. It grows with me and is constantly being updated with new information and tools. I love the deep dive word study feature the most, which provides Hebrew/ Greek translations for almost every word in the Bible. 10/10 RECOMMEND UNFOLD

Absolutely Incredible Bible App!
StephenMcP
I downloaded Unfold yesterday and after my very first study this morning, I knew I needed to leave a review.This is so much more than another Bible reading app. The combination of Scripture, teaching and video brings the Word to life in a way that encourages you to slow down, think deeper and genuinely seek God.My first study was Psalm 1 and I was blown away by how impactful it was and how relevant the teaching felt to where I am in my walk with God.You can tell an incredible amount of prayer, thought and intentionality has gone into creating Unfold. If you’re looking for something that will help you dig deeper into Scripture and strengthen your relationship with God, download this app!Absolutely five stars! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

So many features…and beautifully designed. Everything I need to read and study a passage of Scripture is right here. I love the reading plan. The mid-week video devotionals are spiritual meat to chew on. And the deep dive word study features allow le to never have to switch to Blue Letter again. 5 star. Highly recommended!!

Unfold 1.1: Listen to the Bible.
AUDIO BIBLE
Hear Scripture read aloud. The NASB 2020, narrated by Michael Beck, now plays chapter by chapter right inside Unfold. Tap the play button at the top of any chapter to start listening.
• Keeps going on its own. When a chapter ends, the next one begins, and the reader turns the page with you.
• Your reading plan follows the audio. Chapters you listen through are marked complete, just as if you had read them.
• Ambient music plays softly underneath. Set the mix, or turn the music or the reading off on its own.
• Choose a playback speed, loop a chapter, or set a sleep timer: stop after a few chapters, or after a set number of minutes.
• Keeps playing when you lock your phone or switch apps, with play and pause on the lock screen.
• When a chapter has one of Neil's videos, it plays at the end of the chapter, so the teaching is never skipped.
MORE READING PLANS
Alongside the Unfold plan, you can now choose Bible in a Year, or New Testament and Psalms, and switch between them any time.
ALSO IN THIS UPDATE
• A refreshed Roadmap in the menu, so you can see what has shipped and what is coming.
• Fixes and polish throughout.
