What is it?
An App for mobile devices that means you can read Explore on your phone or tablet computer.
Who can use it?
Anyone with an iPhone (3G, 3GS or 4), iPad, iPod Touch, Android phone or Android tablet. You can download it in pretty much any country in the world - you don't have to be in the UK or US.
How does it work?
It comes with Time with God pre-installed, so as soon as you download it, you can start using it to read the Bible.

So you can use it on the Tube, on a flight etc. You can download additional notes from within the App which are the same as the paper edition, although they come in one month chunks, not three months.
How much is it?
It is free to download, complete with Time with God. Additional months of notes cost £1.49 in the UK and $1.99 in the US. These can be downloaded from the Download section of the App.

Makes my Day !!
I would like to reiterate both the previous reviews . I have used Explore for quite a few years and have no plans to change. The ministry from the contributors is excellent - deep and challenging.
With particular regard to the last issue Tim Thornborough 's most excellent " Serpent crusher" series has been an anointed "Redemption history " ride through scripture . My many thanks and prayers for all of you for the future. ![]()
A good way to start the day.
I like the way explore challenges you throughout the study and gets you thinking about your relationship with Jesus. I would recommend it to others. ![]()
what iPhones have been waiting for
this is the perfect app for justifying owning an iPhone! Seriously though, it is a really useful, easy to use and encouraging app - if this doesn't remove some of the inertia we all face with bible reading, i don't know what will ![]()
