More feelings, a softer look everywhere V0.3.2 · 7 Nov 2026

Four more feelings: doubting, insecure, tempted and sick, so 22 in all, now in order from the most joyful to the heaviest.
Feelings added in a new version show their verses right away, even if your browser kept the older list.
The soft gradient of the home page is now on every page. Reading settings → Background → Plain (or the switch in the menu) turns it off.
Reading settings open in a larger window, with everything in two columns, and the switches look right again.
A larger header and search box, and a wider read-aloud bar.

The menu opens as a wide panel under the header instead of a pop-up window, and the language switch is in the header.
The verse of the day plays in the read-aloud bar, with the voice and speed at hand. The bar shows all its options at once.
Psalms and other poetry read as running text, so a chapter is shorter and easier to follow. Reading settings → Poetry → Lines as printed keeps the printed lines.
A chapter opened from a reading plan shows the plan, the day and its readings, with a way back. A chapter opened from search results, a topic or a feeling has a link back to it.
A wider reading column on large screens, and every part of the site as tiles on the home page.
Six more feelings: energized, peaceful, hopeful, tired, confused and hurt, with 20 passages each.
Verse images in the colours of the home page.
Many smaller fixes: long book names on phones, the verse you tap stays above the action bar, dates and numbers in the page's language, and more.

The whole site in Spanish, with the Reina-Valera 1909: choose Español in the menu. A chapter opens in the other language at the same place.
A new home page: the verse of the day, your reading and plans, How are you feeling? and every part of the site as tiles.
A clearer menu: the main pages as tiles, the rest in groups, with the theme and reading settings at hand.
How are you feeling? has 20 passages for each feeling, and shows every one before it repeats any.
A reading streak on the home page: the days in a row you have read. It is kept only on your device and can be hidden.
Interlinear reading: the Hebrew or Greek words under the English text of the BSB (Reading settings → Layout). Tap a word for its meaning.
Every verse page, in every translation, can be found by search engines.
Anonymous visitor counts: how many browsers visit per day, week and month, without cookies or IDs. You can opt out on the Privacy page.

Every verse has its own page, so a shared verse shows its text in the link preview.
