iBibleZ.com
main website | iPhone bible
iBibleZ.com is a newcomer on the scene since my definitive review of iPhone bibles last year. The first thing you will notice is that the interface is slick and designed specifically for the iPhone. There are quite a few translations available including the ESV, ASV and the Chinese Union Version.
Navigating through the bible is relatively easy, the main way is to select the translation, book, chapter or verses from the drop down menu which is always on display. A big advantage of this over other multiple translation iPhone bible versions is that it is very easy to switch between translations whilst keeping the same verse.
You can also search for key words, and there is a study section being developed which will make this a very impressive iPhone bible package.
Most excitingly perhaps is the ongoing development opportunities from the iBibleZ iPhone bible. From reading through the forum it is clear that it is under continual development. It would not take too much more to make this arguable the best iPhone bible.
Translations
The iBibleZ.com iPhone bible has several translations available, as shown below. There are plans for more to be added according to the forum, and this would be fantastic. However, with the ESV, ASV and KJV available it already has a good selection. Those in italics did not work at the time of this review, and are presumably in the process of being added.
- King James Version (KJV)
- American Standard Version (ASV)
- English Standard Version (ASV)
- Bible in Basic English (BBE)
- Darby Bible Translation (Darby)
- Webster’s Bible (WEB)
- Youngs Literal Translation (YLT)
- 和合本 – Chinese Union Version (CUV)

Thanks for the review! You should check out the downloadable version of iBiblez I am working on. It is pretty simple for now, but at least you can unplug from the net and still read the Bible as you need…
Thanks for the tip – I’ll post an update on this website soon
iBiblez has changed its name to Touch Bible and is now a full fledged app available for free in the App Store :)
It has the NET not the ESV
Very nice info.i hope you come to my blog here Kampanye Damai Pemilu indonesia 2009
Hi Pat,
Thanks for your comment. It has the ESV on the website based version, but not on the version you can install and read offline on your iPhone or iPod Touch. I still need to review that aplication actually, as this a review of the web version.

Hi Patrick,
Because it is free why don’t you make available directly from your web site? With itune store you need to have an account with them and this is not possible for some people like me who need your product.
