Find your way around the website and the app
Where Home, Ask, Browse, Plans, Notes, You, Settings and Help are on the website and in the app, how to take the guided tour, and where to find what.
On this page
The website and the app share the same few places: Home, Ask, Browse, Plans and Notes, then Settings, Help and your own page. What changes is where you tap to reach them, and this page shows both. New visitors are offered a guided tour, which you can take again from Help.
The places
- Home: the question box, the quote of the day, and what you were in the middle of.
- Ask: your conversations, and the one you are in.
- Browse: the index of every sermon, the search, and the sermon you are reading.
- Plans: reading plans, with the one you are on.
- Notes: a notepad of your own.
- You (Profile on the website): your activity and badges, and everything you keep, such as favourites, highlights, plans and what you read and heard.
- Settings: light or dark, and your languages.
- Help: the guided tour, this guide, and how to reach us.
On the website and in the app
Web
On the website the places are in a panel on the right. On a wide screen it stands open beside the page, and the button at its top folds it into a column of icons. On a tablet it is always that column, and the same button opens the whole panel over the page. On a phone, use the menu button at the top right.
At the foot of the panel are Settings and your account: your photo and name, or Sign in. The account menu holds Profile, Help and Sign out.
App
iPhone
A tab bar at the foot of the screen holds Home, Ask, Browse, Plans and You. Notes waits on You: open it from its row there, or put it in the tab bar.
You choose which three of Ask, Browse, Plans and Notes sit between Home and You.
- Open You and tap the gear at the top right.
- Tap Tab bar.
- Touch and drag the tabs to put the three you want at the top of the list. The one left over waits on You.
iPad and Mac
A sidebar on the right takes the place of the tab bar, with Home, Ask, Browse, Plans and Notes, then Settings and your account at its foot. On iPad it is a column of icons, and the button at its top opens it in full over the page. On Mac it stands open, and the same button folds it. The account menu holds Profile, Help and Sign in or Sign out.

Help and the guided tour
The guided tour lights one part of the screen at a time and says in a sentence or two what it is for: asking, your conversations, Browse, reading, listening, keeping a passage, plans, and where Settings and your profile are. You can take it again whenever you like.

The same window opens this Help center, About, Contact and Release notes. After a change we announce, a What’s new card can appear once on Home: Continue closes it, and Release notes opens the full list.
