Read the LDS standard works offline, with notes, tags, search, sync, and AI

A desktop reader for the Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, Pearl of Great Price, Journal of Discourses, Lectures on Faith, and the Joseph Smith Translation - fully offline, with personal notes, tags, verse highlighting, keyword search, a Topical Guide, General Conference citations, a Scripture of the Day banner, a reading streak, a Resume Reading history of your last 5 chapters, a choice of accent colors, cloud-folder sync across your own devices (via whatever cloud client - Nextcloud, OneDrive, Google Drive, or similar - already keeps a folder synced on your machine), and opt-in AI-assisted search: ask a question in your own words - and refine it conversationally with follow-ups - to get pointed at real, matching scripture, using your own AI endpoint.

This is an unofficial application, not produced by or affiliated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or with Community of Christ. Scripture text courtesy of the beandog/lds-scriptures project; Journal of Discourses and Joseph Smith Translation (published as the "Inspired Version") text courtesy of their public-domain scans on archive.org; General Conference citation data courtesy of BYU's Scripture Citation Index. The Topical Guide is Desktop Scriptures' own correlation of its local scripture text and that same citation index - not a copy of the Church's own, separately-copyrighted Topical Guide.
