About YouVersion’s Family of Apps
Created by Life.Church, YouVersion designs biblically centered experiences that encourage and challenge people to seek God throughout each day. YouVersion’s family of apps include Bible App, Bible App Lite, and Bible App for Kids.
Bible App launched among the first free apps available in the Apple App Store in 2008. Since then, it’s been installed in every country of the world and surpassed 575 million unique devices worldwide in June 2023. The app offers a free Bible experience in about 2,000 languages, and uses features like Verse of the Day, Bible Plans, Guided Prayer, and Daily Refresh to help people deepen their relationship with God.
Bible App Lite is an offline-optimized, space-saving app that launched in October 2022 as part of an effort to equip countries with internet limitations. In its first six months, the app was installed on more than 4 million devices across Africa and SE Asia. It also reached the number one spot in the Google Play Store in countries like Kenya, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Developed in partnership with OneHope in 2013, Bible App for Kids is designed to bring Scripture to life through interactive animations and fun activities. As children experience 41 of the major stories of the Bible, it helps them fall in love with God’s Word. The app has been translated into more than 65 languages, from German and French to Mongolian and Swahili. In April 2023, Bible App for Kids surpassed 100 million installs on devices worldwide.
With the goal of helping churches build community through digital and in-person experiences, YouVersion provides church leaders and pastors with free tools and resources, including Church Metrics, YouVersion Events, and Church Online Platform. In 2022, YouVersion also created a feature within the Bible App that was made with pastors and church leaders in mind. Through Church Profile, church leaders can create their own space inside the app to help connect with people and encourage them to engage in Scripture throughout the week.
