Android: Sign Up for a New YouVersion Account
Overview
Your YouVersion account gives you a secure place to save Prayers, keep track of Plans you’re subscribed to, Badges you’ve earned, add Verse Images, save your Highlights, Bookmarks, Notes, connect with Friends, and more. You can access your YouVersion account from any device that supports the Bible App and at Bible.com. Some of the features are only supported on the Bible App on iOS or Android and not supported on Bible.com.
We give you everything you need to use YouVersion for free, with no limits and no ads. It’s free for everyone, and it’s free for our Bible and Content Partners. Although you can use YouVersion without an account, many Bible App features only work if you have one.

Troubleshooting Sign-Up Issues on Android
I keep getting “Sorry, that email is not available” when I try to sign up.
This means the email address you are trying to use is already associated with an existing YouVersion account. Sign in with this email address instead of trying to create a new account. If you need to start fresh with the same email, sign in, delete the existing account, and then sign up again. If you can’t remember your password, see how you can reset it here.
