What's new

Release notes for Bible Atlas, newest first. Each version lists what changed, so returning readers can catch up on everything added since their last visit.

v2.2.0Concordance

Search any word in the Bible and see every verse it appears in.

  • Word search across all 66 books

    The new concordance indexes the whole King James Version. Search a word and see every verse that contains it, with counts by book and testament, and filters for the Old or New Testament.

    Open the concordance
  • Words connected to the Atlas

    Where a word is a person, place or journey, the results page carries the maps, timeline moments and thematic connections beside it — and every verse opens in the reader with its context panels intact.

v2.1.0Direct verse selection

Jump straight to any verse — book, chapter and verse in seconds.

  • Verse picking inside the chapter selector

    Verse selection now lives inside the book navigator. Open the book list, pick a book, tap a chapter and choose the exact verse — only verses that actually exist are offered.

    Open John 4:4
  • Permanent verse links

    Every verse now has its own address, like /john/4/4. Shared links open the chapter, highlight the verse and keep all the maps, people and connections in place. Existing links still work.

v1.8.0Release notes

Bible Atlas now tells you what changed since your last visit.

  • Versioned release notes

    Every update is now recorded with a version and date. Anything released since your last visit is grouped at the top of this page so you never miss a new feature.

  • New-feature indicator

    A dot appears on the settings gear when there are updates you haven't seen, and a dismissible banner in the reader links straight to the notes.
