FAQs

Questions, answered.

Rooms, marks, and reading together. If something is missing, open a room and press the question mark for a quick tour.

Rooms

Up to 12 people can be in a room at once. If it is full, someone has to leave before another person can join.

Enter the room code on the home page, or open a shared link or QR code. If the room has a password, you will be asked for it unless the link already includes it.

When you create a room you can set an optional password of 4 to 64 characters. Without one, anyone who has the code can enter. A password is not a full lock — treat the code like a door key. Only the browser that created the room can change the title or password later.

A room on a signed-in person's studies list stays. A room nobody has kept is cleared 14 days after the last highlight, comment, or drawing. Opening it again does not reset that. A room nobody marks is cleared 48 hours after it was created. The person who created a study can delete it for everyone.

Open Share in the room for a QR code and a link. If the room has a password, you can include it in the link so people skip typing it. Anyone with that link can enter, so only send it to people you want in the room.

Each person in the room needs a distinct display name. Try a small change, or use the suggested name if one is offered.

Reading together

Rooms can use the ESV, NIV, NLT, NASB, NKJV, World English Bible (WEB), or King James Version (KJV). The ESV, NIV, NLT, NASB, and NKJV are used by permission of their publishers; WEB and KJV are public domain. The translation is chosen when the room is created and stays the same for everyone in it.

Stay on Read, then drag across words in a verse. A box opens beside that verse. Type a comment, or click away to cancel. Click a comment to expand it; click away to fold it back up. You can delete your own notes.

Use Draw at the bottom of the page to sketch on the passage. Everyone in the room sees the lines as you make them. Erase only removes your own strokes, and you can change the pen or eraser size from the small arrow next to each tool.

They stay with the room, so people who join later can still see them, until the room itself is cleared.

Marks in the top right show who is in the room. Click someone else's mark to jump to the passage they are on.

The first visit walks through highlight, comment, and draw. Open How this works (the question mark) any time to replay it.

Account and data

No. Choose a name and a mark, then create or join a room. If you are signed in, that room is added to your studies. You can delete a study you created. Removing a study you joined only takes it off your list.

Yes. Opening a room, reading, highlighting, commenting, and drawing are free. Signing in to keep a study is free too.

Your name, mark, recent rooms, and whether you have finished the tour stay in this browser. A room password is kept only for the current session. If you are signed in, the rooms you open also stay on your account.
