Apps
We are happy to have the Bible Reading Challenge plan on the five apps below, along with our printable plan.
Just a note to clarify about Sunday assignments and “Catch-Up Days” in the apps:
1. For various reasons, we have “catch up days” listed as a “devotional day” (in YouVersion) or a regular assignment (in Olive Tree). It is still an optional/catch up day.
2. In our plan, Sunday is shown as ‘Hear the Word Preached’ or the same verse each week: Deut 5:12-15 (depending on the app). It is just a placeholder because Sunday is an off day in our plan, since we assume you will be worshiping at church. Some of our apps require a placeholder for skipping a day, so in order to have Sunday “off” we just added a repeat passage.

***If you started the plan after Sept 2, here is how to get the correct date on your plan: Be sure to to start the plan “by myself” instead of with friends. Find the correct assignment in the plan (regardless of what the date says), then go to the day before and check of the assignments for just the DAY BEFORE (this is important and won’t work otherwise). Find “catch me up” in the settings (top right menu, 3 dots) and it should shift things around to have the correct start date.”
