Prayer points and thoughts from Senegal

New Wolof Bible app

by | Sep 4, 2018 | Praise report, Prayer request

We recently completed work on a new Wolof Bible app for iOS. This new app joins the Android app and the web app and broadens our reach on mobile platforms. To check it out go to http://sng.al/appli

This app, like the other apps, is built with SIL tools and contains the WorldVenture translation of the Bible. It is a great partnership for us, a way that we can connect with other workers and broaden their reach as well as connect with people who would like to read the Bible in the Wolof language. 

The Android app was also updated to a new version with the features that that iOS app has, like highlighting, notes, history, and the ability to choose among five different interface languages (including Wolof). 

People are finding and using the Wolof Bible apps. For the Android version over the last 30 days, we’ve had over 700 unique users open the app and interact with the Bible, and those users have opened the app an average of over five times each. Five percent of the users in the last 30 days were new, which has been the trend for many months. So people are not just installing the app, they are really using it, and our user base is expanding. We pray that with the new iOS app even more folks will interact with the Holy Scriptures of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 

2 Corinthians 1.11

"Please help us by praying for us. Then many people will give thanks for the blessings we receive in answer to all these prayers."
