Everything in one place

A whole devotional life, beautifully quiet

Reading is sacred, so the interface recedes. Everything else — plans, prayers, reflection, memory — sits one tap away.

A reader that gets out of the way

Literata typography, adjustable size and spacing, light and dark. Chrome fades as you read. Long-press any verse to highlight, note, bookmark, share or send it to memorization.

5 highlight washesAudio narrationMultiple translationsOffline downloads

Guided reading plans

30 Days with Jesus, Psalms in 30 Days, Anxiety, Marriage, Students — each day pairs a passage with a reflection question and a prayer prompt.

Prayer journal

Requests, answered prayers, reminders and categories — Thanksgiving, Healing, Family, Church, Work, Personal. Private unless you share it.

Reflection journal

After a reading: what stood out, how you'll apply it, your prayer response. With mood and tags, private by default.

Verse memorization

Flashcards, fill-in-the-blank, and a spaced review schedule that brings a verse back exactly when you're about to forget it.

Groups, not rankings

Family, small group and church circles with shared plans and a prayer wall. Encouragement reactions instead of scores.

The habit engine

Gamify the habit, not the faith

XP is earned, permanent, and never lost. It rewards consistency and reflection — not speed, and never other people's progress.

  • No leaderboards for “most chapters read”
  • No ranking people by holiness
  • No rewards for rushing through Scripture
  • No public comparisons that create pride

Miss a day and nothing shames you. Every 30 days you earn a grace day that quietly saves your streak — up to five in the bank.

Beyond the reader

Prayers and devotions, ready when you are

A full prayer hub sits alongside Scripture — everything guided, everything offline, nothing that asks you to hurry.

Interactive Rosary

Step through every decade with a guided bead diagram.

Stations of the Cross

All fourteen stations with meditations and prayers.

Divine Mercy Chaplet

Guided bead-by-bead, timed for the 3 o'clock hour.

Novenas

Nine-day prayers with day tracking and reminders.

Daily Mass readings

The lectionary for today, offline, with the liturgical season.

Saint of the day

A short life and prayer for every day of the year.

Lectio Divina

Read, meditate, pray, contemplate — guided in four movements.

Daily Examen

A five-step evening review, five minutes before bed.

“Be still, and know that I am God.”

Psalm 46:10

Selah— the word the psalms use for a pause. That’s the whole idea: stop, breathe, and let a few verses land.

How it works

Three minutes to start. Years to keep.

01

Set your rhythm

Pick a daily goal — five minutes or a chapter — a translation, and a reminder time. We nudge gently, and never guilt you.

02

Read, pray, reflect

Open the reader or today's plan day. Highlight what lands. Write a reflection or a prayer. Three small quests keep the day clear.

03

Come back tomorrow

Your streak, XP and level grow quietly in the background. Grace days cover the days life gets in the way.

Which translations are included?

Selah ships with public-domain and openly licensed translations — including the King James Version and the World English Bible — with audio narration for every chapter. Premium unlocks the full translation library.

Is my journal really private?

Yes. Prayers, reflections, notes and highlights are private by default. Sharing is always an explicit choice, per entry, and you can delete your account and all of its data from Settings at any time.

Do I need an account?

You can start as a guest and keep everything on your device. Signing in with Apple, Google or email syncs your reading, notes and streaks across devices.

Does it work offline?

The reader, your journals, prayers, the Rosary, novenas and daily readings all work offline. Premium adds downloadable translations and audio for the plane, the subway and the cabin.

What happens if I break my streak?

Nothing punitive. Every 30 days you earn a grace day — up to five saved — and one is spent automatically to cover a missed day. No red, no shaming copy, just an invitation back.

Is there a leaderboard?

No, and there never will be. Groups show encouragement — “Sarah finished today's reading” — with no scores, ranks or comparisons anywhere in the app.

Your next quiet moment is already waiting.

Free to start, private by default, and gentle by design. Five minutes today is the whole thing.
