Function Explanation
Bukia is the app designed to enhance the reading progress and search of the Bible. The main functions are as follows, and you can refer to the descriptions below in relation to screenshots.
Read :
1. You can track the read chapters, without the need to sequentially read the Bible, by displaying the 66 books of the Bible with a button type and displaying read chapters in a different color. (Screenshot 1)
2. Click the button-type chapter of the Bible to display the corresponding Bible. If you click “Read History” menu in the upper right corner, the relevant Bible will be marked as the read chapter, and if you want to change the Bible back to unread, click “Removing History” to mark it as an unread chapter. When you click the “Reading History”, the number of chapters and verses you have read so far is displayed at the bottom of the screen, so you can easily see your reading progress. (Screenshot 2)
Search :
1. The search function can be performed by listing the words you want to search in the search box. For example, as you enter “God love heaven” sequentially, any word can be searched. (Screenshot 3)
2. There are four search options right below the search box: MOST, AND, OR, INORDER: the AND option displays the verses only with all of the search words included, the INORDER option that includes all search words in the order in which the search words are written, the OR option that only requires one of the search words, and the MOST option that shows the verses that includes most of the search words. Because of the MOST function, no matter how many words you type, it displays only the verses that contains most of the search words. It is considered as unique and very useful search function.

3. When you search, you can set the “Search Range” at the bottom of the screen. In general, the scope of the search is made up on one verse, and the scope of the search verses can be extended by specifying the range. (Screenshot 3)
