“For most of us in the developed world, always-on data is a fact of life. We barely think about how much data a particular app consumes or if we will have a reliable cellphone connection,” said Mark Finzel, Biblica’s vice president of digital innovation.
“This is not the reality for much of the developing world. Internet speeds and costs vary significantly from one country to another.”
The lite version of the Bible app is also available in India, Nepal, Pakistan, Myanmar and Bangladesh.
“Our desire is to reach every person, in every part of the world, with God’s Word in their heart language,” Bobby Gruenewald, YouVersion founder, says as he launches the new app.
“This new app enables us to reach tens of millions of new people that were difficult to reach with the media-rich Bible App,” he continued.
