The story
The challenge
Free Bible apps tend to pay for themselves with ads, accounts and tracking, and the good parts — narration, study tools, search that understands you — often sit behind a subscription. We wanted one we could hand to anyone: complete, quick, private and free.
What we built
Dappit Bible is one React code base that runs as a web app and, through Capacitor, as native Android and iPhone apps with native audio. A Cloudflare Worker serves the text, the search and the church content; narration streams from object storage or downloads for listening offline.
