Want to help test the app?
The Tour of the Bible mobile app is live on the iOS App Store and available on Android via Google Play closed testing. Pick your platform below — the iOS path is one tap, the Android path is a quick two-step until Google unlocks the public store later this month.
If you give it a try, I’d love your feedback — anything from “this verse looks wrong” to “the icon is ugly”.
What happens when I tap the link?
iOS (App Store)
Tap the iOS button above on your iPhone or iPad — it opens the App Store listing for Tour of the Bible. Tap Get and the app installs like any other. No TestFlight, no invite codes, no account required.
Android (Play Store)
Google’s policy for new developer accounts means I can’t offer a single magic link until production unlocks (in about two weeks). Until then it’s a two-step:
- Tap the Android button above. It opens a public Google Group called bible-tour-android-testers. Tap Join group with whatever Gmail you use on your phone.
- Once you’re in the group, open this Play Store link on your phone, tap Become a tester, then tap Download the app on Google Play and install as normal.
From then on the app updates automatically through the Play Store like any other app. You won’t get any emails from the group — it exists purely so Google’s testing pipeline knows you’re allowed in.
What am I actually testing?
Just use the app. Read a few verses. Try the audio. Tap a Hebrew or Greek word in Originals mode. Tick a book off. Then tell me anything that looked wrong, felt clunky, or surprised you. Specifically helpful:
- Verses that render incorrectly (wrong text, missing punctuation, weird formatting)
- Audio that won’t play, cuts out, or plays through the wrong speaker
- Anything that crashes the app — even once
- Anything that looks ugly or confusing
- Anything you’d expect to be there that isn’t
How to send feedback
Easiest path: open the app’s Settings tab and tap Send feedback. That opens an email with your platform info pre-filled, so I know which device the report is from. Or email bibletour@askadam.cloud directly with whatever’s on your mind.
What you’re signing up for
- A free, no-account, no-ads, no-tracking Bible reading app on your phone
- Auto-updates through TestFlight or Play Store as I push fixes
- Zero spam — the only emails you’ll get from me are if you reply to one
- The right to leave whenever you want (uninstall, or tap Stop testing in TestFlight / Play)
What this app actually is
A companion to Matt Whitman’s Lightning-Fast Field Guide to the Bible: a guided tour through every book of the Bible in about 90 minutes of reading, with curated verses for each book, ten translations, per-verse ESV audio, and a tappable Hebrew/Greek lexicon for word-level study. Reading progress stays on your device. There is no account and no tracking.
