Missing days is normal. The plans that survive a missed week are the ones built to recalculate, not the ones that guilt you into starting over.
Almost everyone who's tried a yearly Bible reading plan has had the same experience: life happens for a few days, the reading piles up, and the plan itself starts to feel like the problem. A printed, date-locked plan doesn't know you had a rough week — it just keeps assigning "Day 47" regardless of whether you've actually read days 40 through 46. That mismatch is usually what makes people quit, not the reading itself.
Cramming a week of missed chapters into one sitting is how a reading habit turns into a chore. Read today's chapters first — the backlog can wait.
Scriptuary recalculates your schedule automatically and gives you a configurable window (a day or more) to mark missed chapters complete without losing your place.
Grace days (earned through referrals, or granted manually) protect your streak on the days you couldn't read at all — sick days, travel, a newborn at 3am — without pretending you read something you didn't.
Once you're reading today's chapter again, a shorter plan or a slightly heavier pace for a week or two closes most gaps on its own.
Every plan on Scriptuary recalculates your day-by-day schedule based on what you've actually marked as read, not a fixed calendar date. Fall behind, and the app quietly adjusts — no manual reset, no "restart from Day 1" button needed.
Your catch-up window (how many days back you can mark complete) is configurable in Settings, and your plan and pace can change at any time without losing progress or streak history.
Start a plan that's built to recalculate when you fall behind — free to begin, no guilt-based streak resets.
