Smart review

Spaced repetition resurfaces each verse right before you’d forget it, so it lasts for life — not just for today.

Hear every verse

Clear AI audio narration lets you learn by ear and review on the go — in the classic KJV or the modern BSB.

Questions

Good to know

What is Mannael?

Mannael is an iOS app for memorizing Bible verses. It turns Scripture memorization into a daily habit through short, gentle lessons that build a verse word by word, then help you recall it from memory. A spaced-repetition system reviews each verse right before you’d forget it, so it lasts for life.

Is Mannael free?

Yes. Mannael is free to download, and every translation and every book is free to learn. An optional subscription unlocks premium features such as AI audio narration and unlimited practice.

Which translations are included?

Mannael launches with the classic King James Version (KJV) and the clear, modern Berean Standard Bible (BSB). More translations are planned.

Do I need an account?

No. Mannael is local-first — your progress and settings live on your device, and the app doesn’t collect your name, email, or precise location. Read the Privacy Policy for details.

How does it help me memorize?

Each verse moves through easy-to-hard exercises — read it, hear it, fill in the missing words, rebuild it from shuffled pieces, then recall it from memory. Mannael then schedules smart reviews with spaced repetition, resurfacing the verse right before you’d forget it so it settles into long-term memory.
