The problem

Most Scripture apps help you read. Praxis is built on a different conviction: Scripture is meant to form you, not just inform you.

What we did

We designed and built the full experience — deep-context reading across translations, a Pattern practice for walking out what you read, Scribe AI for reflection, and a Journey that tracks the walk — in a warm, quiet interface that stays out of the way.

The result

A native iOS app built for the App Store, designed for formation instead of streaks. Since launch, the userbase has skyrocketed 250x.

Userbase up 250x.

Brand guidelines

  1. 01

    Scripture is the interface — everything else steps back.

  2. 02

    Ember marks action and insight, and it is used sparingly.

  3. 03

    Dark mode is night reading, designed first — not a theme afterthought.

  4. 04

    The chi mark carries the icon; type stays reverent and plain.

Brand pack

Merriweather · System sans

App icon, chi mark, day and night reading themes, and type scale.
