In heaven
In barns and storehouses

The problem

Phone addiction steals time
from what matters most.

144 x per Day

An average person unlocks their phone. We open the feed before we open the Word.

“We mean to spend time with God. Then a notification pulls us away.”

WordFirst closes the gap between intention and action — gently, without guilt.

Whether you're SDA or just want to read the Bible more, WordFirst helps you show up. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you the moment we launch.

No spam — just one email when we launch. We never sell your data.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

WordFirst uses your phone's built-in Screen Time (iOS) and Digital Wellbeing (Android) permissions to pause the apps you choose until you've finished your daily study. Nothing leaves your device.

We only record whether you completed today's study, so the app knows when to unlock. The content of your reading and reflections stays private — and we never sell your data.

Yes. You choose exactly which apps to block. Everything you don't add stays available all day, every day.

The quiz is five short questions, and you pass at 60%. It's how the app knows you engaged with the lesson — gentle, not a test you can fail for good. Pass it and your apps unlock until midnight.

English and Portuguese at launch, with more languages on the way.

Absolutely. Move between Sabbath School and Bible in a Year whenever you like — and your streak comes with you.

WordFirst is free forever for up to 3 apps. Supporter features are $4.99/year, and you can try them risk-free.
