Exploring Reading Plans
Reading plans help you build a consistent habit of engaging with Scripture. Set up a plan, track your progress, and pick up right where you left off, even across multiple devices.
Note: Reading plans require a Filament account so the app can save your plan and track your progress. If you haven't created an account yet, do that first before setting up a plan.
Starting a New Reading Plan
1. Open Reading Plans: Tap Reading Plans in the bottom navigation bar, then tap Start a new plan.
2. Choose a plan: Browse plans by category - Featured, Whole Bible, Partial Bible, or Topical. Tap a plan to read its description, then tap Let's get started.
3. Set a start date: The date defaults to today, but you can choose any date, including one in the past if you've already been reading. Tap Next when ready.
4. Set up notifications (optional): Toggle notifications on to receive a daily reminder at your chosen time. Toggle off if you'd prefer no reminders. Tap Next to finish, and your plan is now active!
Using Your Reading Plan
View today's readings: Your daily readings page shows what's due today. Each reading shows the passage and the page number to turn to in your physical Filament Bible.
You’ll also see an option on the right to tap Listen for the Audio Bible playback of each reading
Mark readings as complete: Tap the checkbox next to a reading once you've finished it. If you accidentally mark something complete, tap it again to uncheck it.
See the full plan: Tap See Full Plan inside a plan to view your full reading schedule: past, present, and future. Tap any day to see its readings or mark them complete ahead of time.
Run multiple plans at once: From the Reading Plans dashboard, tap Manage Plans in the upper right corner and tap Start a New Plan to start another. All active plans appear together on your daily readings page.
Using multiple devices? As long as you're signed in to the same Filament account on all your devices, your reading plan progress will stay in sync automatically whether you're on an Android phone, iPhone, or iPad.
