Start and follow a reading plan
Reading plans start from the Today's Reading card on Home. Browsing and picking a plan is free. Reading a plan's days is part of premium; without it you see an offer to unlock premium.
Start a plan
- On Home, tap Today's Reading. With no plan yet, it says Choose your plan.
- Under Reading Plans, look through Pick a plan to begin. If you are new, the plan marked Start Here under Recommended for Beginners is a good first pick.
- Tap a plan, then tap Start Plan.
- Tap Start Plan again to confirm.
If you already have a plan going, your progress on it is saved, so you can come back to it later.
To make your own, tap Build Your Own Plan, pick a book, choose How many minutes a day, and tap the start button, such as Start Genesis Plan.
Read each day
Open Today's Reading and read. When you are done, tap I Finished Today's Reading at the end, or Mark read at the top. Tap the journal button at the top to write in your Journal.
Days & notes lists every day of the plan. Tap Open reading or Read again on a day, or Add a note to it. Go back one day unmarks your most recent day so you can read it again. Your notes stay.
Stop or restart
Tap your plan, then Stop This Plan and Stop Plan. Your progress is saved. To pick it up later, tap it under History in Reading Plans, then tap Resume Plan. A finished plan offers Start Again, which starts at day 1 and keeps your notes.
