Ten minutes that change your day.

Read a short passage, reflect, and pray. Then three small ways to live it today, made for whatever you're walking through.

No account needed.

What it is

Faithlify is a Bible app that turns what you read into what you do today.

“Be doers of the word, and not hearers only.”James 1:22 · Berean Standard Bible

How it works

About ten minutes.
Then the rest of your day.

A plan is a few days on one topic, from 3 to 10. Every day has the same four steps, so there's nothing to figure out.

Step 1 of 4

Read

A few verses from the Bible, then a plain explanation of what they mean for your day. If you want more, the whole chapter is one tap away. Tap Listen to hear it read aloud, with each line marked as it's read.

Faithlify's reading screen: 1 John 4:7-12 being read aloud, with the verse being read marked.
Step 2 of 4

Reflect

Write a line about what stood out to you. Use your own words, or tap one of three suggestions. It goes in your journal, and only you can read it.

The reflection screen asks “What stood out?” with three suggested answers and space to write your own.
Step 3 of 4

Pray

Praying is just talking to God, and you don't need special words. Take one to five quiet minutes while the screen turns from night to first light, with a short prompt to start or in silence.

Step 4 of 4

Do

Now you get three small things to do today, based on what you read:

  • One with God. “Before you leave the house, ask for wisdom about one decision you're avoiding.”
  • One for someone else. “Call someone today who can do nothing for you.”
  • One for you. “Finish one thing you started and left unfinished.”

Mark each one done when you do it, or tap “Not today”. Nothing is taken away.

Plans

Bible reading plans for whatever you're living.

Pick a plan for what's going on in your life right now, good or hard. Every plan in the library is free, and the Bible text works offline.

Growing

When things are steady and you want more than steady.

  • James: Do the Word
  • Words
  • Perseverance
  • Generosity
  • Proverbs: Ten Days

Hard seasons

For grief, worry and the people you're at odds with.

  • Grief: One Day at a Time
  • Anxiety: Enough for Today
  • Conflict: My Part of It

A new direction

A decision in front of you, or coming back after time away.

  • Direction: The Next Step
  • Starting Again: Coming Home

Doubts and reasons

For the questions you're asking, or the ones people ask you.

  • Apologetics: Reasons for the Hope

Freedom

For a habit or an addiction that has a hold on you. Honest, private, and never a shame counter.

  • Recovery: Out of Hiding
  • Freedom: Into the Light

Something else?

Tell Faithlify what's going on, in your own words, and it finds the plan that fits. With Faithlify Plus, our subscription, it can also write a plan just for you, or make one from your notes.

If you're in crisis, Faithlify stops and shows you where to get help right away. In the US and Canada, call or text 988.

From your notes

Live what you heard on Sunday.

Take a photo of your notes from church, a book or your journal. Faithlify reads them, finds the verses you wrote down, and makes a plan for this week out of what you heard.

Scan a page with the camera or pick photos you already have. You can check what it read before you make the plan.

Part of Faithlify Plus.

Faithlify after reading a page of sermon notes: it found Romans 12:1-2 and James 1:22 and shows the text it read, with a Build my plan button.

Ask

Stuck on a step? Ask.

Ask what today's verses mean, how to do one of today's actions, or a bigger question about faith. It answers from the Bible and your plan.

Every verse it mentions opens with a tap, and Listen reads the answer aloud.

It can be wrong, and it isn't a pastor, a counselor or your church. Ask is part of Faithlify Plus.

Ask explaining today's passage, Romans 5:1-5, in plain words, with a Bible reference you can tap.

Together

Do a plan with your people.

Start a group with friends, your small group or your family, and do the same plan together. Talk about each day, and pray for each other's requests.

Add friends by username, or hold your phones close to add each other in person.

Groups and friends need an account. Your journal never goes to a group.

A Together group called Thursday night doing James: Do the Word, with four people, who finished today, and a prayer list.

Progress

Progress that only looks back.

Faithlify keeps track of the days you showed up and the things you did. Your progress never goes down, even on days you couldn't.

No leaderboards, no comparing with anyone, and nothing that measures your faith. It records what you did.

Widgets

Today, on your Home Screen.

A widget is a small piece of the app on your iPhone's Home Screen. See today's reading and your three actions without opening Faithlify, and tap a circle to mark one done.

Privacy

Your journal is yours.

  • It stays on your phone.Your journal is what you write in step 2. Without an account, it stays on your iPhone.
  • Only you can read it.Your journal is encrypted on your device before it leaves it, and your account keeps it in sync. No church leader, group or friend can see it.
  • Your words stay yours.What you write for a plan or ask in Ask is kept only to check that Faithlify works well: never with your name, and never shown to other users. Photos of your notes aren't kept at all.
  • We count use, never what you write.Usage counts tell us whether Faithlify helps people come back. You can turn them off in Settings.
  • No ads. No selling your data.No advertising in the app, we never sell your data, and there are no cookies on this website.
