Wouldn’t it be cool if the entire SCM scripture memory system box were made into an iOS app for iphone, ipad, etc! I envision the basic box set up with the dividers as is. Ideally, you could make your own cards with any translation either by typing them yourself or by pulling the reference. In a perfect world, the cards could be double sided (like the Foundations cards from Children Desiring God) with a picture on one side.
I have no idea how to make an app, but I’d snap this up in a heartbeat if someone else made it!

I happen to know of some people who are working on that. It would be a wonderful app!

Hey Sonya,
I don’t know if you noticed a month or so ago my post about the modifications I made to the scripture box system for those of us that sometimes miss days?
I have a “daily” tab, and “alternate” tab, then a “weekly” tab, and a monthly tab.
1 scripture goes behind the daily one. 2 go behind the alternate. 5 to 7 go behind the weekly, and the rest learned go behind the monthly. We read the one at the front of each tab, and move the card to the back of that tab section. Once we have more than 30 monthly ones, I will put a number on the tab to tell me how many to read in that section a day.
This works better for me – so that if we often are missing a day because of the other activities we do, or some other problem… we don’t lose the scripture.
Anyway, just thought you might want to mention the variation to those working on the program…. (not that I have an iphone or ipad or anything….

We have been enjoying all the educational apps on our iPod.
There is a free app called Moms with Apps — it’s a really nice little app ‘store’. You can also visit their website.
Speaking of a Bible memory app– until the one is ready that Sonya is talking about— I found one called–
VerseByHeart in the app store — it has wonderful reviews.
I am going to try it out today— you can put in any verses that you want — and it has 3 different levels of learning.

Thanks, suzukimom. I’ll pass along your modifications. They could make some good options in the app.

I can’t wait, Sonya!
In the mean time, I found an app called Fighter Verse. It is based on the set from Children Desiring God that our family uses. I love it, EXCEPT, I wish I could organize it like my SCM box! It has a new verse to appear each week. I’m trying to wrap my head around how to make this work until the SCM team figures it out for me.
However, not having to type in the verses on the ipad, reviews, ability to hear it read and sung are great features, too.

It’s still being worked on but it’s not far enough along to make any announcements yet.

I know that there are many SCM projects underway, but I just thought I’d bump this back up. Who knows if there’s someone on the board who may develop apps.
