Answers to the questions we hear most. Still stuck? Email us below.
Why don’t my apps lock?
In Morning Bread, go to Profile › Settings › Manage blocking and check two things.
The app needs access to Screen Time: if you see Give access, tap it and allow it. And the morning lock must be on, with your apps chosen under Locked.
How does the emergency unlock work?
Once a day, after a 5‑second wait, the emergency unlock opens your apps for 15 minutes, even if you have not read yet. Phone, Messages and Morning Bread itself are always allowed.
You can switch it off with Allow emergency unlock under Profile › Settings › Manage blocking.
How do I change the start time?
Go to Profile › Settings › Manage blocking. Set the time under Lock starts at and the days under Days.
Does the app work without an account?
Yes. Without an account everything stays on your iPhone. With an account (Apple, Google or email) your highlights, notes, plans and progress sync between your devices.
How do I delete my account?
Go to Profile › Settings › Account › Delete account. Your account and all its data are deleted immediately.
Which translations work offline?
The Statenvertaling, KJV, BSB, WEB and ASV work offline. The NLT, NKJV and AMP need an internet connection.
How do I set up a reading plan?
Open Plans and tap New reading plan. Choose the books, the number of days, and whether to read in order or mixed.
Would you rather read a fixed number of chapters a day? Choose one, two or three under Chapters per day in Profile › Settings › Manage blocking.
Does Morning Bread cost anything?
No. The app is free, with no ads and no in-app purchases.
