Change period or translation

Under How you read, choose Week, Month or Year. The chart shows reading distribution, with time and Visits below it.

Use the top-right button to change translations. Under All translations, the same chapter counts once even if read in several translations. Compare figures using the same translation and period.

Manual chapter marks belong to overall progress. A translation-specific figure uses reading in that translation, so the numbers can differ.

How days and chapters count

A day counts after 30 seconds of qualifying reading. Automatic chapter completion requires 60 seconds accumulated in that chapter. You can add or remove a manual mark separately.

A streak joins consecutive qualifying days. The Reading days calendar on Home gives a quick view of activity.

Statistics measure activity in the app. A plan’s progress follows completed assignments and can differ from overall Bible progress.

If a figure does not change

Read a chapter, then reopen statistics. Check the translation, period, phone date and time zone. Do not change the date to repair a streak.

Overall time and streak statistics are not in the documented synced data list. Matching these numbers is not a reliable sole test of transfer to another phone.
