ESV Bible for Reading and Study
ESV Bible is a mobile Bible reader built around the English Standard Version. It suits readers who want a clear digital copy of the ESV for personal reading, regular study, or listening while away from the screen. The app is published by Crossway and is listed in the Books & Reference category.
Reading Tools
The app includes a focused reading view that keeps attention on the biblical text. Readers can adjust the display with options such as font size and background color, making longer sessions more comfortable. Search tools help locate passages and keywords, while bookmarks, highlights, and notes can be used to mark important sections and record study thoughts.
Audio and Reading Plans
ESV Bible provides audio readings for users who prefer to listen. Some audio options include background music, with separate controls for narration and music. The app also offers more than 50 reading plans, including structured plans for reading through the Bible over time and plans organized around particular topics or devotional goals.
Study Resources and Account Sync
Alongside the Bible text, the app includes access to the Global Study Bible and provides additional study resources through its broader resource library. More advanced commentaries and reference material may require a subscription. An account can synchronize notes, highlights, bookmarks, and reading progress with ESV.org, allowing study work to carry across supported devices and the web.
With a rating of 4.6 from 18,904 reviews and more than 1,000,000 installs, ESV Bible is aimed at users who want more than a basic scripture reader, while still keeping the main reading experience straightforward.
