# Bible Reading Plan & Widget

Bible Reading Plan helps you read on a schedule and place a verse on the iPhone lock screen. In the studio this app is also called Illumine. It is a reading tool and does not take a side in doctrine.

Who it's for: People who want a simple daily reading habit, including when they are offline, and a verse they can see without opening an app.

## What it does

### A plan you can follow

Read through a plan in daily portions instead of deciding from scratch each morning.

### A lock-screen verse

A widget can show a verse on the lock screen.

### Reading that works offline

Once the text is on your iPhone, you can read without a network connection.

### A streak, as a reminder

A streak marks days you showed up. Missing a day is ordinary. The plan is still there when you come back.

## How it compares

You can read the Bible on a website or in a paper copy with any schedule you write down. Bible Reading Plan keeps the day's portion, a streak, and a lock-screen verse on the phone, and it works offline after the text is on the device. It does not replace a church, a commentary, or your own tradition. Passages are presented for reading, not as a ruling on doctrine.

## Questions

### Which tradition does the app teach?

It doesn't take a side. It is a reading plan and a widget. Notes elsewhere on this site cite widely used reading advice and do not argue doctrine.

### Is it the same app as Illumine?

Yes. The App Store name is Bible Reading Plan & Widget. Illumine is the name we use for the same app inside the studio. The address of this page stays /apps/bible-reading-plan/.

### Does it work on a plane?

Yes, for text that is already on the iPhone. You do not need a connection to open the day's reading.

### What if I miss a week?

Start at today's portion or continue where you left off. A plan is a tool. Falling behind is not a failure the app needs to punish.
