Asking for my mom, because she’s prone to getting malware on her phone and I think her bible apps might be related.

No I’m not a religious person, I just respect my mom and want to help her while respecting her wishes. I just think the current Bible Reader apps she has are likely malware in disguise.

Yes I realize this isn’t particularly a tech support community. If my question doesn’t belong here, feel free to remove it, but at least suggest an appropriate community to ask first.

    There are other suggestions, but I would recommend a different approach. Use a standard epub and something like KoReader or Librera FD. If she wants to read a bible she probably has a strong preference about which one. Using a bible app will lock her to whichever that app supports, but using an epub allows her to use the correct version for her.

    It also allows her to build skills using her religious text which can transfer to other books. Lots of people enjoy books beyond their central text but still around it, think study guides, history, religious studies, and so on, but also books completely unrelated. Being as she is having trouble with malware you could solve multiple problems in one go and also give her some fun, interesting books alongside things that scratch the religious itch while building skills and reducing the chance of scamming and malware.
