Reading the Bible has never been more fun. Bible Storyteller is an app for tablets and smartphones, designed especially for children, which teaches them about the Holy Scriptures through entertaining and engaging animated pictures and audio files.
The stories, protagonists and events of the New and Old Testaments grouped into various sections in the main menu are presented in a multifunctional app with an attractive interface that makes it even easier to use.
The texts and the interesting interplay between the audio and video contents make for even more fun learning. The fairy tale-like element makes it especially attractive for children. The innovative format efficiently communicates the importance and historical significance of the Bible.
The app aims to encourage children to read the Bible and become familiar with the Word of God and makes it easier for parents, educators and primary school teachers to capture childrens interest in the sacred texts.
The app was launched in December 2013 and new content is being added weekly. Here is the current list of stories (click on the links to try out the audio or video version of each story without having to install the app):
