The Good Bookr screenshot - Image 1It has been a while since homebrew developer Phosphorous updated his Bible reader for the Sony PlayStation Portable, but considering how much the homebrew application improved, it's undoubtedly worth the wait. The Good Bookr version 1.1 allows users to conveniently search for specific books they want, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Just like its initial release, The Good Bookr is still loaded with the entire King James version of the Bible. However, browsing through God's Word is now much easier with a search function that supports even book abbreviations. When there's only one search result, the app takes you automatically to the verse you wanted to see instead of displaying the search menu.

The Danzeff keypad was included to make your searches much smoother, and since it's possible to search the entire Bible, there's a search history feature to tell you what you already went through. Here's The Good Bookr version 1.1's changelog:

  • Search by book, chapter, or verse, with support for book abbreviations.
  • Search history (similar to command line history.)
  • Option to search entire Bible (can be slow, use accordingly.)
  • Danzeff numeric pad modified to make searching for verses easier.
  • Single search result opens directly instead of opening search menu.
The Readme file included in the download has everything else you need to know such as The Good Bookr's controls and how to install it, so don't forget to check that out.

 » Much-needed update

I no longer have to press Circle 18 times just to get to my favorite passage (Luke 19:27). Nice!

I too would like to see support for the NIV version, even if it means having two eboots in the XMB. Yeah I know it's full of mistranslations by nutty evangelicals with an agenda, but it's nice to compare, and I'd imagine most of the hard coding is already done...

If you're going to take the time to attempt a flame, at least take a few minutes to think about it, and come up with a flame that makes sense. /tard correction

Anyway, thanks for this app. It sure was a bugger to set bookmarks for every book of the Bible. Much easier to use now.

On a side note, even if you don't agree with content of the application, any mature individual should be able to appreciate the work that goes into a homebrew app.

Thanks again

The world needs more atheists and nothing will get you there faster than by READING the bible. That's why I support all bibles!
