Sacred Texts Annotate & Share
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Read and share sacred texts from many traditions in one beautiful library. Tag, cross-reference and take notes that sync across all your devices.
Immerse is built around one idea: the passages and ideas you collect matter. It's the most power tool for creating and sharing compilations.
Going further than just an e-reader — it gives you tools to build, export, import, and share your own thematic compilations from across the world's spiritual traditions.
Build compilations:
Long-press any passage to select it, then Tag it. Tags are your collections — group passages from the Qur'an, Bible, Upanishads, Buddhist sutras, Bahá'í writings, and 400+ other texts under a single compilation or theme: Prayer. Justice. The nature of the soul. Your compilation grows one passage at a time, across every tradition in the library.
Export your work:
Share any compilation with other Immerse users or as a Word doc, PDF, Spreadsheet, Markdown file, and more — complete with your notes and cross-references. Ready to send, publish, or study from.
Import from the community:
Discover compilations made by other Immerse readers in the Community tab. Preview their passages, then import the whole collection into your own library with one tap. A living, growing body of interfaith scholarship built by its users.
Everything else you'd expect:
A full interfaith library of 400+ sacred texts. Full-text search across all of them at once. Notes, X-refs (cross-references), and AI summaries attached to the exact passages you selected. Reading progress saved automatically.
