This Easter, YouVersion saw its highest day ever for daily Bible use, up nearly 22% compared to Easter in 2023.
On Sunday, 16.8 million people opened God’s Word through the YouVersion family of apps and 2.4 million verses were shared through the Bible App. This historic increase is due in part to increased access to both the media-rich Bible App and the space-saving Bible App Lite, which is currently available in more than 175 countries and territories as part of a recent effort to equip areas with device and internet limitations.
During Holy Week 2024, YouVersion saw more than 3.5 million installs across the YouVersion family of apps (up 42% from last year). The increased installs culminated on Easter Day, which was the second-highest day for installs in YouVersion history. Also during Holy Week, YouVersion saw a significant increase in the use of a key Bible App feature as 2.7 million Prayers were created, up 77% over 2023.
Finally, the top verses shared on Easter were:
- Matthew 28:6
- Ephesians 6:11
- Luke 24:6
