7. Bible App for Kids

The Bible for kids is an application full of interactive adventures and lovely animations from which children can discover and learn the stories of the Bible. The application is very well made and perfectly adapted to the little ones. It includes a lot of content.

The only disadvantage is that the tool is quite heavy, and you have to download each chapter separately. This makes the app experience a bit slow. Luckily it’s worth it.

8. Islam: The noble Quran

You will find countless applications dedicated to Islam. Some even paid. But Islam: The Koran is a free proposal from which you can read the entire Koran, the holy book of Islam. However, you can use translations in other languages if you need them.

As soon as you access it, you will have access to the Koran with all its readings and verses. You can browse through them and, if you prefer, download the audio to listen to them. Of course, if you need them, you will have to download them separately, which is a bit heavy. On the other hand, keep in mind that it is a free version with ads. If you wanted to do without them, you would have to go to the payment one.
