Ten Chapters 4+

Excellent Bible Reading Tool

One of the most appreciated features of the Ten Chapters App is all of the current day’s chapters being available as one continuous reading and/or audio experience. The option to manually set the day made migrating from a previous App effortless.

I began using the bookmarks with the Professor Grant Horner Bible Reading System in 2010. For the past several years, I’ve used an App with an interface which required manually advancing the chapter upon completing each reading. It was a wonderful convenience which provided the option to use the iPhone as my primary Bible. I used the feature-loaded Logos App for the ESV Bible text.

In a future version of the Ten Chapters App, an option for an auto page turn would be an excellent enhancement. Currently, the last few verses of Acts are hidden by the recording controls.

Thank you for your feedback!

The update to version 1.3 fixes the issue of the audio controls covering the last few verses of Acts.

Really like the app, but...

I really like this app, and it has helped me stay more on track at times when I don’t have my Bible with me. However, the trouble I have with it is that when you close the app, it defaults back to the first day. I don’t keep all my apps open continually-especially at times when I need to conserve my battery. As I get farther along with my reading, this will mean that I have to advance many days to find my last reading place. I don’t know anything about apps or building them, but is it possible that there could be an update to allow an option to go to the latest day read (like Kindle) or to jump to a particular day, and to keep track of what days have already been read? (So I’ll know at first glance that I’ve already read day number 687 and should now be on day 688.) The number of days available in the app seems infinite, so the longer I use this plan, the more useless the app will be.

Thank you for your feedback! I believe that the update to version 1.2 will fix the problem you described. Now one can go into settings and select "Manually Set to Day." Then simply choose the day on which you would like to start the plan. All chapters before the selected day will be marked as "read." This will benefit those who have already made progress in Professor Horner's reading plan before using the Ten Chapters app!

Superb app. Request customization options!

This app is simple and beautiful. It works exactly as needed for those following Professor Horner’s original plan. I would LOVE, and likely pay for, the ability to customize the plan. I use an alternate plan in which Group 10 is Acts, Romans, and Hebrews. Would be sweet if a user could define (1) how many groups of books, (2) the books to include in each group, and (3) which book and chapter to start with in each group. Understand: this is a request, not a complaint! The app does exactly what it purports to do, and does it seamlessly. Thanks!
