Want to read through the Bible but struggle to stay consistent? Bible Reader is a free, open-source web app that helps you build and keep a daily Scripture reading habit — with flexible plans, progress tracking, and zero distractions.^1
Choose from popular Bible reading plans or create your own custom plan tailored to your pace and schedule. A built-in tracker shows which of the 66 books you've completed, and a daily checklist lets you mark off chapters as you go — giving you that satisfying sense of forward momentum. Because it's a Progressive Web App, it works on any device with a browser — phone, tablet, or desktop — with no app store download required.^1
Bible Reader is built and maintained by Gadisa Teklu, a full-stack developer based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The entire codebase is open source on GitHub under an MIT license, built with Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, and Supabase — reflecting a generous spirit of freely sharing tools that serve the Body of Christ.^2 The project includes 107 commits, and an Android APK is available directly from the GitHub releases page for those who prefer a native mobile install.^2
