Still.A Bible app that reads to you
Still. reads a verse, a chapter or a short thread of verses on one theme aloud, and keeps playing with the screen off. You pick a voice and a mode: Drive, Dishes or Sleep. A few listens a day are free; unlimited listening is Premium. The voice is computer-generated, not a human narrator.
How listening works in Still.
- Three voices to choose from. The voice picker offers Elia, Aram and Noor.
- Three things to listen to. A single verse, a whole chapter, or a short thread of verses gathered around one theme such as worry or grief.
- Three modes. Drive, Dishes and Sleep, for the moments hands and eyes are busy. Playback continues with the screen off.
Free and Premium
Everyone gets a few listens each day for free. Unlimited listening is part of Premium ($19.99 a year or $2.99 a month, after a 3-day free trial). Reading, search and the daily verse stay free.
Be clear about the voice
The audio is generated by a text-to-speech service, so it is a calm synthetic voice, not a person reading. Some people love that it is steady and consistent. If you want a human narrator with drama or music, a recorded audio Bible will suit you better.
Listening while driving
Start the audio before you set off, then leave the phone alone. Choose a short thread or a chapter so you are not tempted to touch the screen. Keep the volume low enough to hear traffic.
Listening to fall asleep
Sleep mode is meant for a quiet, short passage. The Psalms are common choices. See five verses to fall asleep to, each with a plain-words note.
Which translation is read?
The King James Version, Berean Standard Bible and American Standard Version are included. The KJV reads in older English, so many listeners choose the Berean Standard Bible for a modern ear.
