Bible Audio Pronunciations iPhone App Released
Giving readers an innovative new way to experience a sacred text, the Bible Audio Pronunciations iPhone application announces its recent launch, featuring audio recordings of over 1,000 challenging words.
To provide people with a new way to experience the Bible, the app will play recordings of terms, names, and places that many people find difficult to pronounce. The app can be especially helpful with unfamiliar Biblical names such as Shealtiel and Epaenetus.
“We wanted to give people an easy tool to raise their level of understanding and enjoyment from reading the Bible,” said Michael Vance, developer of the app. “It will speak out loud some of its most difficult words.”
The over 1,000 audio clips were carefully researched and recorded to give listeners a clear answer to their pronunciation questions. Thanks to the portability of the iPhone and iPad devices, the Bible Audio Pronunciations app is designed to be used at home, church, or with others.
“The Bible is meant to be shared with others, and this app helps people do that with confidence,” Michael Vance said. “It is perfect for reading to your children, speaking at church, or reciting at a Bible study group.”
