Quick Oats is fast Bible text access with interlinear Hebrew and Greek text and Strongs definitions. Rolled Oats contains 35 books and thousands of journal articles from the Original Advent Text library. Both provide verse/sentence highlighting, user notes with cross references, and two term savable searches. 


Oats can allow your highlights, notes and search collections to saved to the any text app including email and sms messages. Keep your important and valuable work for personal backup or sharing with others.

Original Advent Texts

The Oat Corpus includes all the original publications and documents produced from 1846 to 1915 in their entirety without sacrificing the limitations of subsequent compiled editions that lack context and continuity.

Oats in the Details

Oats has evolved from its initial birth as a Windows 10 PC app to its current cross-platform Android-iOS webapp iteration.

Oats on Windows PC

  A first generation version using the same Bible book and Original Text abbreviations. Differences are the Book Mark feature that provides quick access to a user-defined list . It also allows inclusion of image files in notes that can be displayed full screen as a slide show. MP3 files can be played from within notes and can be named freely without restriction.  

Oats on Mobile Devices

Android and iOS devices support Text-to-Speech to read a chapter at a time, loop, or continue in six different voices without need for internet connection.  Android can prevent screen rotation; iOS cannot at this time.
