Pen & Verse: Scripture Writing
Write the Bible by hand
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
December's plan, The Promised King, starts December 1: one to three verses a day, with the angels' song from Luke 2 on Christmas Day.
Write the Bible by hand, one verse at a time.
Write in your own notebook or Bible journal, or right on the screen. Pen & Verse keeps your place. When you finish, tap the last verse you wrote, and your place moves forward. The verses before it are marked as written.
Trace on the screen
Open Trace on any chapter and write over the faint verse with your finger or a stylus. Pick the pen width and color, look back at your handwriting, and share it as an image or a PDF.
Highlights and notes
Drag a finger across the words that stay with you to highlight them, and keep a note or a prayer with the verse. Turn a highlight and its note into a card to share.
Swipe to read
Read one verse per screen and swipe up for the next. Pen & Verse remembers where you stopped.
A plan for every month
Each month has a short writing plan built around one theme, one to three verses a day. December is The Promised King. January and February follow, and new months are added about two weeks before they begin. Join on any day. Today's verses are on your home screen, and the days before, along with any day you miss, wait on your list in order until you write them.
A habit that allows rest
One verse a day keeps your streak going. You can rest one day in seven and keep it.
Track every book
Your home screen doubles as a Bible tracker. Every book of the Bible sits in one grid, marked in progress or finished, next to your streak, your verse count and how many verses are left to finish your next book.
Copywork sheets
Make a PDF with light letters to write over, in print or in cursive. Print it on Letter paper, or open it in a notes app on your tablet. You can also copy from the line above, or write from memory with only the first words shown and check yourself on the last page.
Listen while you write
The app reads the verses aloud with your device's own voice. Go verse by verse while you write, or listen straight through the chapter with a sleep timer.
Your own Bible works too
The text in the app is the King James Version (KJV) of 1769. The reference for each day is shown in large type, so you can write from the translation you already read and mark it here.
No account
There is nothing to sign up for, and there are no ads. Your progress, highlights, notes and handwriting are never sent to us.
Free to start, one purchase after
