An offline KJV Bible app without ads popping up all day

Short answer: If a Bible app pops up over your other apps, it almost always has the Android permission "Display over other apps" or schedules several reminders a day. Turn that permission off in Settings > Apps > Special app access > Display over other apps, limit its notifications, or switch to an app that stores the Bible offline and asks for neither.

What users complain about

Reviews of popular daily-verse apps repeat the same things: "they pop up on my phone ALL DAY LONG", an ad on the very first tap, reminders that keep coming after you already read, and background music that will not stop. None of these are needed to read Scripture.
