Older version of MySword v.15.2 - 20 May 2024
Note: When you download using Google Chrome in your Android device, a message will appear saying:
This type of file can harm your device. Do you want to keep mysword4android-{version number}.apk anyway?
This is just a generic warning from Google Chrome (other browsers may say a similar warning) because you are downloading an APK outside Google Play. Just tap OK.

Installation
After the download and you are prompted to Open, tap Open then select Package Installer if asked. If Chrome asked:
For security, your phone is not allowed to install unknown apps from this source.
Tap Settings, then make sure you enable installation by tapping Allow from this source. Then tap Back (or the top left arrow). Then tap Install.
If you missed tapping the Open and the dialog was closed after the download, you can still install via your File Manager/Explorer. Locate the downloaded APk file then tap it to install.
If a message from Google Play Protect shows:
Unsafe app blocked
MySword Bible
This app was built for an older version of Android and doesn't include the latest privacy protections...
Tap Install anyway. If the Install anyway option is not available, tap More details ⮟ to expand other options and tap Install anyway.
After successful installation, run MySword. For newer devices, the following message will appear:
Storage permission (access to files on your device) is required for downloaded modules like Bibles for MySword app to work. Please grant the permission on the next confirmation box.
Tap OK. Then tap Allow when this confirmation box appears:
Allow MySword Bible to access photos, media and files on your device?
You will then be asked to specify a folder in your SD card (or internal storage) as a place for the Bible, Dictionary and Commentary modules. You may choose to use the Default. After specifying that folder, you will be asked to download modules so that you can use MySword. You can choose the suggested modules (includes some popular English Bibles, Strong's dictionary and TSK commentary) or add more modules by tapping Bible, Commentary or Dictionary buttons and selecting modules).
You can also manually install any modules by downloading the GZip files from this site, unzipping them and copying them into the storage folder you had specified.
Enjoy God's word!
What's new in Version 15.3
- Improvement in Search by using Regexp SQLite function:
- Option to use SQLite Regexp in Regular expression (no accents) search type instead of the slower Java. SQLite engine based regex is faster than retrieving all records and filtering on the app. The option is on the Preferences menu item of search accessible via the 3 dots icon on the top right.
- Option to use SQLite Regexp in Standard search type. The option is available below the Type selector.
Note: Regexp in Regular expression (no accents) search type mimics the old behavior so spaces are considered search key separator and each search key as Regexp expression and ANDed (all expressions must be satisfied). On the other hand, in the Standard search type, the entire search text including embedded spaces is considered one Regexp expression (leading and trailing spaces are always trimmed out). See Help in the Search screen and the following about Regex expressions:
- Improved initial load time of Preferences in case there are too many books, commentaries and dictionaries by lazy loading Bible pictures, maps and things.
What's new in Version 15.2
- New Notes Preferences:
- Notes icon: select from 7 SVG notes icons, Emoji, pick File, or option to enter Custom URL. You can change the emoji by selecting it first then choosing Custom icon. You can also use Custom icon to embed SVG or Base64 data.
- Notes icon size (default is 32px).
Bugs Fixed in Version 15.2
- Bible View Preferences Reset Hidden in large buttons: multi lines are cropped.
Enjoy God's word even more!
