Bible Typing keeps two different records. Mixing them up is the usual reason progress looks “lost.”

Stats (finished chapters)

• A chapter counts only when you finish it — the whole chapter, or the last verse in verse-by-verse mode.
• Finished chapters stay on that book forever. Switching books does not erase them.
• Progress bars, badges, and admin reports use finished chapters only. Partial verses do not add to the percentage.

Bookmark (where you left off)

• Each book can keep its own bookmark, so you can leave Genesis at verse 4, type John, and still Resume Genesis later.
• Verse-by-verse saves a bookmark after every verse. Chapter-by-chapter saves a bookmark when you start that chapter, then records the chapter when you finish it.
• The typing page also remembers the last book you were in, so reload continues that book. Use Resume on another book to jump back to its bookmark.

Switching books or chapters

• New book: changes where you type now. Other books keep their bookmarks and finished chapters.
• Different chapter in the same book: replaces that book’s bookmark with the chapter (or verse) you picked.
• Resume: opens that book’s bookmark, including verse-by-verse if that is how you left it.
• Start Fresh: clears that book’s bookmark and starts at chapter 1. Finished chapters are not removed.
