Vertically Verse
Vertical, right-to-left Bible app: Korean, Japanese, Chinese
Vertically Verse is a Bible reader in vertical type: characters stack top to bottom, columns run right to left, and the controls are vertical text. Korean 한글 킹제임스, Japanese 口語訳 and Chinese 和合本 (Traditional) share one switch. Read as a scroll, pulling past the last column to load the next chapter, or as a printed page you turn a row at a time. Open 묵상하기 for one verse per screen. It is free on iOS and the web. Android is in closed beta: sign up at vertically.works/apps/verse for the install link.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Jihoon. I make Vertically Verse, and I'm here to find Android testers.
The Android build is in closed testing on Google Play. Google requires 12 opted-in testers for 14 days before I can release it to the public. If you have an Android phone, sign up at https://vertically.works/apps/verse with your name and email, and I will send you the install link. The screenshots above are from the Android build.
Vertically Verse is a Bible reader in vertical type: characters stack top to bottom and columns run right to left. I built the interface the same way, so you read the buttons and drawers as stacked text. I set digits upright inside the column and follow each script's rules for vertical punctuation and line breaks. In the scroll layout you pull past the last column to load the next chapter.
What's inside:
• Korean 한글 킹제임스 (1994), Japanese 口語訳 and Chinese 和合本 (Traditional). You switch between them with one tap.
• Two layouts: 흐름, a continuous scroll, and 절별, a printed page with verse-number bands that you turn one row at a time.
• 묵상하기, one verse per screen. Swipe to the next verse in canon order, or turn on 랜덤 to draw from a 293-verse anthology I picked by hand.
• Serif or sans, three text sizes, and dark, sepia or light themes. Save the verses you want to keep.
• Works offline, without an account or ads. I collect no data.
It is free on iOS, and you can read it in the browser at https://verse.vertically.works while you wait for the Android link.
If you read scripture in Korean, Japanese or Chinese, or you have fought vertical text on a screen, tell me what reads wrong and what you miss.
