Help for Manna, the local-first daily verse and iOS widget experience.

Quick note: Manna's core content is available offline, while purchases and premium restore depend on Apple and RevenueCat services. Widget content and settings are shared locally between the app and widget extension.

Getting Started

  1. Open Manna and complete onboarding.
  2. Choose your preferred verse language, style, and theme.
  3. Add the Manna widget from the iOS home screen widget gallery.
  4. Optionally enable reminders, favorites, reading plans, or premium themes.

Common Topics

How do I add the widget?

On your iPhone home screen, long-press an empty area, tap the add button, search for Manna, and choose the widget size you want. The widget reads its styling and verse data from the app's local shared storage.

Why is my widget not updating?

Open Manna to refresh local widget data, make sure the selected theme and verse are saved, and confirm the widget is still active on your home screen. Restarting the device can also help if iOS has paused widget refresh.

How do reminders work?

Manna uses local notifications on your device. If reminders are not showing, confirm that notification permission is enabled for Manna in iOS Settings and that you selected a reminder time in the app.

Why does Manna need photo library access?

Photo access is used for choosing custom backgrounds and for saving or sharing generated verse images. If you deny this permission, those related features may be limited.

How do premium themes and restore work?

Manna uses Apple's purchase system and RevenueCat to unlock premium access. To restore, use the in-app restore option while signed in to the same Apple account that completed the original purchase.

Can I use Manna without an account?

Yes. Manna does not require account registration for its main experience. Favorites, reading progress, reminder choices, and widget settings are stored locally on your device.

What data is shared with the widget?

The app may share the selected verse, reference, language, theme, font, colors, and copied background assets with the widget extension through iOS App Group storage so the widget can render correctly.

Troubleshooting

Custom background does not appear

  1. Confirm photo access is allowed in iOS Settings.
  2. Choose the background again inside Manna.
  3. Reopen the app so the image can be copied to widget storage.

Reminder failed to schedule

  1. Make sure notification permission is granted.
  2. Check that Focus mode or Summary settings are not hiding notifications.
  3. Pick a reminder time again in the app.

Purchase restore failed

  1. Verify the device is online.
  2. Confirm you are using the same Apple account used to buy premium access.
  3. Retry the restore flow inside Manna.
