How to Use Remember Me
1 - What's New?
If you are looking for information about previous Remember Me versions, please visit the help pages for Remember Me 5 and older.
If you need to recover verses after updating please see this user forum post.
Easier to Use
Remember Me 6 emphasizes the flashcard metaphor. Flashcards move between the boxes New, Due, and Known. A verse’s flashcard is the starting point for studying and for reviewing it. The flashcard metaphor helps to understand the basic processes more intuitively.
More Versatility
Power users with hundreds of Verses enjoy more ways to group and filter their verse decks using customizable labels. Visual users benefit from adding images to their verses. Multilingual users can listen to reference and passage in different languages.
Unified Experience
The new app version guarantees a unified user experience across all devices, because it uses the same software framework for all platforms. App and framework are open source.
2 - 5 Steps to Remember
1 Add a new Bible memory verse.
The Bible memory app Remember Me offers various options to save a Bible memory text to your device. You can
- enter any text manually
- retrieve a verse from a variety of Bible versions
- download Bible memory verse collections from other users
2 Commit a Bible verse to memory.
Studying a Bible verse gets fun if you apply a variety of methods.
- Listen to it
- Hide random words
- Make it a puzzle
- Display first letters or empty word lines
- Type its first letters
3 Use topics and images.
Not everybody is good with numbers - and you don’t need to be to memorize with a system. Add a topic or an image to your Bible memory verse and it will help you pick out the right Bible verse from your memory.
4 Review memorized Bible verses.
Once you have committed a memory verse, it shows up for review in the “Due” box. Start a series of Bible flashcards to review the verses. Say the Scripture memory verse aloud, flip the card, and check if you got it right.
Spaced Repetition makes sure you review newly memorized Bible verses often, but don’t forget well known Bible memory verses either.
5 Redeem the time.
Make the most of every opportunity. The best Bible memory apps work because you can take the two minutes during which you are brushing your teeth to memorize Scripture. Keep Remember Me with you and use it during those natural pause moments of life.

Bible symbol. An additional toggle button allows to retrieve the passage with or without verse numbers.
If you tap the Scripture button, Remember Me opens the online Bible’s website and offers you to
paste the passage into the app. You can add additional line breaks or other
modifications and save the verse (see above).

6 - Study & Review Verses
The Learning Process
| Boxes: | New | → | Due | → | Known |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Actions: | 1. Study | 2. Commit | 3. Review passages | 4. Recall | 5. Review references |
| Buttons: |  |  |
- Study new verses.
- Committing a verse moves it to box “Due”.
- Review passages of verses.
- Successfully recalling a verse moves it to box “Known”.
- Review references of randomly selected verses.
Memory verses move between the boxes “New”, “Due”, and “Known”.
You can change the sort order of a box by tapping on the active tab .
(Tutorial: How to change the ORDER LIST)
Studying
After adding a verse, it can be studied using different kinds of games. To start studying, tap on the verse and on the study symbol.
Obfuscate: Hide some words and try to recite the verse by filling in the missing words from your memory. Tap on an obfuscated word in order to reveal it.
Puzzle: Build the verse by tapping on the correct word.
Line Up: Display empty lines or first letters by tapping on the icon on the left (on the bottom bar). Advance by tapping on (+word) or (+line). Try to recite the word or line before you reveal it.
Typing: Build the verse by typing the first letter of each word.
After committing the verse to memory swipe the flashcard to the right in order to move it to the “Due” list. From now on, the verse takes part in the reviewing process.
Reviewing Passages
Select the box “Due”. If you would like to change the order of the verses, tap on “Due” again. There are 3 ways to start a review:
outlined flashcardStarts a review of multiple flashcards.
Starts a review of a single flashcard.
Opens the flashcard on the passage side directly.
When reference and topic are displayed, recite the verse from memory, then flip the card to check if you were correct. If you prefer reciting the verse line by line (for editing line breaks see Adding and Editing Verses), tap the icon in the bottom right corner for each line.
If you need a little help to get started, press long on the card to get a hint. (You can skip a card by swiping it down.)
If you remembered the verse correctly, swipe it to the right in order to move it to the “Known” box. This will increase the verse’s level by one (until the review limit in the account’s settings is reached). If it was not quite correct, swipe it to the left. This will reset the verse’s level to 0. This might sound a bit shocking, but it is very important for the review frequency of the verse. Verses with low levels show up for review more often. This helps to reinforce your memory of a verse before it gets forgotten. Spaced Repetition ensures that you repeat challenging passages frequently, but also don’t forget familiar passages.
Spaced Repetition
Memorisation is most efficient when the brain recalls the learned items in increasing intervals. Remember Me uses an exponential algorithm to calculate the intervals (similar to Pimsleur). If your account’s review frequency is set to “Normal”, you will review your verses after 1, 2, 4, 8, 16… days. The other component of the algorithm is resetting a verse’s level to 0 after a failed review (similar to Leitner). This makes sure that difficult passages are reviewed more often than easy ones.Reviewing References
If you want to review the references of the passages reviewed today only, press on the label
“Reviewed today”, before you start. Select the tab “Known”, set its
sort order to “Random”, and tap on the button with the filled flashcard icon at
the bottom.
Remember Me shuffles the cards and presents their passages. Try to recite the reference from memory, and flip the card by tapping it to check if you are correct. If you are, swipe the card to the right. If you aren’t, swipe it to the left. The app will get the card back to you during the review session until you remember it.
You can skip a card by swiping it down. Unlike reviewing passages, the app does not keep track of your reviewing progress. This mode of reviewing is more like a quiz you should take once in a while to refresh your knowledge of the references.
Account Settings
- Number of Review Flashcards: Maxmimum number of flashcards per passage review session.
- Number of Inverse Flashcards: Maxmimum number of flashcards per reference review session.
- Learn with Reference: Include the reference in studying and reviewing verses.
- Review Frequency: How often the verses will show up for review.
- Interval Limit: Maximum number of days until to the next review. Limits indirectly the number of levels that can be achieved.
| Learn with Reference | Learning by Topic | Flashcard Front | Flashcard Hint | Flashcard Back | Audio Playback |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OFF | OFF | reference, topic, labels | beginning | passage | reference, passage |
| ON | OFF | reference | topic, labels, beginning | passage, reference | reference, passage, reference |
| OFF | ON | topic, reference, labels | beginning | passage | topic, reference, passage |
| ON | ON | topic | reference, labels, beginning | passage, reference | topic, reference, passage, reference |

All Verses in One List
In some situations it may be helpful to view all verses in one list, e.g. for exporting your complete collection to a
file (see below). You can achieve this in the visibility drawer
on the right by switching boxes off and selecting the automatic
filter “All verses”.
(Tutorial: ONE COLUMN for all Bible verses)
Export/Import Verses as File (CSV)
Open the file menu file_open (mobile app only) in the visibility bar on the right side and select “Export to File”. This will create a new file in CSV format with the currently displayed verses. You can share the exported file with other apps to save it or send it to someone else. CSV files can be opened with spreadsheet programs.

Create a Prayer Account
Create a separate account for texts that you want to read regularly rather than memorise. Since the references probably play a minor role, you can select the option “Learn by Topic” when setting up the account.
Adding Prayers/Devotions
You can add texts in the “New” box or import a collection of texts from “Collections”. Some kind of numbering is useful as reference. For example, if you split up a collection of long prayers into individual prayer cards - such as the books by Stormie Omartian - the references could be 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b etc. References are used to sort the cards. It is also helpful to add a topic to each prayer.
Pray Daily
Sort the prayers by topic or by reference (alphabetically) by tapping the “New” tab a second time. It is best to say the prayers aloud and in your own dialect or words. This way, even preconceived prayers can turn into a personal conversation with God. Write down impressions and thoughts that become important to you during prayer below the prayer text (see Editing a verse). In this way, your prayer account also becomes your prayer diary and reflects part of your communication with God. Move the prayer after your daily devotion to the “Due” box to keep track of your prayer progress. The “Known” tray is not needed for prayers.
Reusing a Prayer Collection
If you want to start over with a prayer collection after you have completed it, select a prayer (tap on its badge on the left), then “select all”, and move the whole collection back to the “New” box.

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organisational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.
