Gospify is a daily Scripture companion in the shape of a game. Five minutes a morning: a verse, a lesson, a reflection. Over weeks you climb a structured Path through the Bible; ask Lumen — an AI study companion — when a passage opens new questions; and keep a quiet streak of faithful days.

Seek, and ye shall find — Matthew 7:7

The app at a glance

Eleven ways to walk in the Word

Every feature is free — no ads, no paywalls. Just Scripture, structure, and the quiet satisfaction of faithful habit.

Today

A morning devotion, the daily verse, and your progress toward today's Manna goal — framed by an evening Vespers after sundown.

The Path

A terraced journey of units you unlock step by step. Pebble-nodes, placement tests, and the quiet progress of days.

Quests

Daily and weekly challenges that reward Mites — spendable in the Shop on cosmetic avatars, frames, and path themes.

Ask Lumen

Your AI study companion. Chat, deep dives, verse comparisons, biblical maps, timelines, quizzes, flashcards — thirteen surfaces in one.

Reading Plans

Five curated multi-day plans, plus AI-generated custom plans that meet you where you are.

Library

Saved verses, memory-verse spaced-repetition review, and read-aloud — your personal Scripture collection.

Shop

Spend your Mites on avatars, colors, path themes, titles, and frames — rarities from Common to Legendary.

Knowledge Center

In-app help, a biblical glossary, and a tradition-aware explainer — Catholic, Protestant, or both.

Profile

Your streak, level, achievements, and a biometric-locked journal. Sync across devices via iCloud.

Leaderboard

Home Widget

Your streak, daily verse, and Manna progress — one glance on your iPhone home screen.

Thoughtful touches

Calm by default. Yours to shape.

The kind of quiet polish you only notice when it's missing — language that agrees with you, notifications that respect your rhythm, alerts tuned to the Church calendar.

How We Address You

Gospify addresses you in your grammatical gender — feminine, masculine, or neutral — across Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and German. Lumen's replies agree too.

Notifications, one by one

Eleven independently-toggleable notification types. Silence quests but keep the streak warning. Or flip the master switch once and go quiet everywhere.

Holy Day alerts

Eve-before and morning-of nudges for the next feast on your tradition's calendar — Advent, Ash Wednesday, Easter, Pentecost, and more.

What sets us apart

Not just another Bible app.

Most Bible apps pick a tradition, paywall their best tools, or treat you as a funnel. Gospify is built differently — tradition-aware, genuinely free, and respectful of your time and attention.

Typical Bible app

Gospify

Tradition

One lens. Either Catholic, or Protestant, or "generically Christian."

Both, side by side. Tradition Mirror shows what Catholic and Protestant teaching each say on the same doctrine, with sources.

Asking the Bible a question

A single AI answer, tradition unknown, or no AI at all.

Long-press any verse → two answers, one Catholic, one Protestant, each citing Scripture first then a confessional source.

Pricing

Freemium. The best features sit behind a $50–$80 / year subscription.

100% free for individuals. Forever. No ads. No premium tier. The developer personally pays for every AI call you make.

Your data

Stored on the vendor's servers. Maybe exportable. Maybe sold.

On your device. Optional iCloud sync lives in your iCloud, not ours. No analytics, no trackers, no third-party SDKs.

Gamification

Streaks that shame you. Hearts/lives that paywall on day three.

Streaks with a Sabbath rest day and a grace period. Oil (energy) refunds when you master a memory verse. Shop is cosmetics-only — no pay-to-win.

Mac + Watch

iOS-only, or a Mac "app" that's a webview wrapper.

Native SwiftUI on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS. ⌘1–⌘8 shortcuts on Mac. Lock-screen and watch complications included.

Four things no other Bible app ships

Denominationally-aware AI

Lumen is the only Bible tutor built to answer in the user's tradition — or in both. The system prompt carries your Catholic / Protestant preference and your grammatical-gender choice, so answers cite the right authorities and address you correctly in Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and German.

Original-language study, TTS included

Tap any verse to see its Greek or Hebrew interlinear — lemma, morphology, Strong's number. Then press the speaker: iOS reads it aloud in Koine Greek or Biblical Hebrew at a learner-friendly 78% speed. Logos charges hundreds for this. It ships free in Gospify.

7,927 Greek verses (MorphGNT) · 23,213 Hebrew verses (OSHB) · bundled offline.

The Church calendar, automated

Computus-driven Easter math populates a full liturgical calendar through 2100 — Advent, Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday, Pentecost, plus Catholic-only and Protestant-only feasts — filtered to your tradition. Opt into notifications and you'll get an eve-before and morning-of alert for each.

Science-backed memory, without the pressure

Memory verses use SM-2 spaced repetition — the same algorithm that powers Anki. Mastering a verse refunds an Oil (energy) charge, so faithful review powers your next lesson. Turn off gamification entirely in Settings → Study Mode if you want the Library without the economy.

Manna
