In ranked order
“This was hard to explore without first connecting to your partner. It looks like it would be good to share some kind of Bible plan or couples devotion if you wanted to use this as a common place to pray and reflect together.”
On the fence Design 7/10
+This seemed to be the best app for connecting and getting on the same page as a couple.
–There isn’t a lot you can do without paying.

“This seems like a good choice for couples who want to share thoughts and reflections and read articles relevant to their struggles. There is not a Bible reading plan and the devotions cost extra.”
On the fence Design 7/10
+This had the most educational content available without having to pay. If you pay you have the option to tailor your advice to the area in which you want to grow.
–This app doesn’t have the opportunity to read the Bible as a couple.

“This is a platform with extensive videos on marriage topics, likely curated by the pastor who started the app.”
On the fence Design 7/10
+This app has a lot of video content, especially surrounding intimacy.
–It is expensive and only has video teaching/content, it’s not really an app for connecting with a spouse.
