How Reveal The Word Works

Your guide to reading, studying, and memorizing the Bible

Quick Start

Core Features

Bible Reader

Read Scripture in a clean, distraction-free interface

  • All 66 books of the Bible in multiple translations (KJV, WEB)
  • Click any verse to select it for highlighting, notes, or memorization
  • Toggle between verse-by-verse and paragraph view
  • Your reading position is saved automatically

Memorization Cards

Learn verses using spaced repetition - the most effective memorization technique

What are Cards?

Cards are verses you're memorizing. Each card tracks your progress using the SM-2 algorithm - the same system used by apps like Anki. Cards you know well appear less often; cards you struggle with appear more frequently until you master them.

  • New - Cards you haven't reviewed yet
  • Learning - Cards you're actively memorizing
  • Mastered - Cards you know well (reviewed every 21+ days)

Daily Practice

Review your cards each day to build lasting Scripture memory

How Practice Works

  1. 1. You see the verse reference (e.g., "John 3:16")
  2. 2. Try to recall the verse from memory
  3. 3. Tap "Show Answer" to reveal the text
  4. 4. Rate how well you remembered (0-5 scale)
  5. 5. The app schedules your next review based on your rating

Tip: Practice daily, even if just for 5 minutes. Consistency beats intensity for memorization.

  • Pre-made sets like "New Testament Essentials" and "Psalm 23"

Understanding the Rating Scale

When you practice, rate your recall honestly. The app uses your rating to schedule optimal review times.

Blackout
Complete blank - no memory at all
1
Wrong
Wrong answer, but recognized it when shown
2
Hard
Correct but with significant difficulty
3
Good
Correct with some hesitation
4
Easy
Correct with little effort
5
Perfect
Instant, effortless recall

Tips for Success

1
Start Small
Begin with just 5-10 verses. It's better to know a few verses deeply than many verses poorly.
2
Practice Daily
Even 5 minutes a day builds strong memory. The app tracks your streak to keep you motivated.
3
Be Honest with Ratings
Don't inflate your scores. The algorithm works best when you rate accurately.
4
Use Context
Click through to read verses in context. Understanding helps memory.
5
Review Before Adding
Clear your daily reviews before adding new verses to avoid overwhelm.
