Verse Loop Daily

Start the day by memorizing ESV verses word-by-word, from first letters, with the reference tested last. Verse Loop Daily is a native, offline-first iOS app with zero dependencies for one workflow: a daily Loop of due verses, a forgiving first-letter tester, and real SM-2 spaced repetition driven by your own Again / Hard / Good / Easy grades. HOW IT WORKS • Today tab shows your due-sorted Loop: Due / Total / Mastered at a glance. • Tap a verse to practice. Type the first letter of each word, one at a time, then the book initial and numbers for the reference, in one flow. The reference composes inline (Psalm 23:1), styled like the words. • Right character appears; wrong character buzzes, marks a red mistake, and moves on. Tap any red word to forgive it as accidental, including Shake to forgive the latest. A mistake count (not a progress bar) keeps you honest. • When done, see mistakes plus a suggested grade. Your grade decides the schedule; mistakes never auto-grade. Every grade has an 8-second Undo. REAL SPACED REPETITION Every rep ends in an explicit grade that drives SM-2 ease and intervals (Again resets with a 10-min retry; Hard x1.2; Good 1d, 3d, then x ease; Easy starts at 4d with an ease bonus). Due means end of day plus interval. Only your grade moves the schedule. ESV-ONLY, LEGALLY Only the English Standard Version. ESV text is never bundled. The app ships with two short public-domain sample verses so it works offline, and fetches real ESV passages at runtime through the built-in secure service (cached for offline review). No setup needed, and no key ever lives on-device. YOUR DATA IS YOURS • Offline-first JSON store (under 100 KB typical). No account, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. • JSON export/import anytime (Settings, Prepare JSON export). • Optional end-to-end encrypted backup: AES-GCM with a key derived from your auto-generated sync code (HKDF-SHA256). The server stores only ciphertext it cannot read. • Delete everything anytime: Settings, Delete All My Data removes local verses and history, deletes the cloud backup, and rotates the code. Full equivalent of account deletion, since there are no accounts. BUILT FOR FOCUS Zero dependencies, SwiftUI only, no web views, no media. Cold start under 1s. Full dark-mode support. iPhone SE to Pro Max.
