I really enjoy the daily reading plans, i can set alerts to remind me to do my daily reading and it is very helpful. There are tons of added features that make this bible app standout and I am glad I found this app! Updating my review: been several years and unlike most apps this one has only gotten better, thanks!

Too difficult to navigate, app doesn't seem to function as it should. I cannot open or search books like I would want.

It doesn't list the books so I can get right to what I want to read as the pastor is teaching from. It's confusing and takes a lot to get the right passage.

Amazing bible app with many different versions in the Old and New Testaments. My favorite feature is probably comparison mode. This is because it allows you to compare different versions. This app has many other cool features, like the ability to look up any word in the Bible. You also have the option to purchase an online Study Bible from authors like John MacArthur. There are not many problems with this app. Because of this, I will recommend this app to anyone searching for a bible app.

Pretty mediocre UI, no logic to any forward/back functionality and a pain to navigate. Good search function but would benefit from saving searches between looking up items. Am looking for a better option. Mostly just a storefront for upselling you other resources.

Good Bible app - I like it! The NIV is an easy-to-understand translation, and the app has a lot of good features like bookmark ribbons, pages that turn like a real book, and section headings that make it easy to find what I'm looking for. The highlight feature is difficult to use and has some problems, but other than that, it's a great way to read the Bible on my phone!

I've been loving this apps for years, however it appears that something is not working as intended as it makes it so difficult to listen to an audio bible or book without the app stopping every 1 minute. I love listening the audio bibles, but this prevents me from enjoying this feature. Please fix that. Thanks.

I like being able to read the bible in a style that makes sense of the KJ version. What I do not like about the app is when trying to highlite sections you have to stop and pick a color everytime..hate that so stopped highlighting. Just stick to one color. Also when you look up definitions they never really show you any.

I tried 5 or 6 others and found them to have distracting color bars at top and/or bottom, or were not intuitively easy to use. One of the others had a "night mode" but a BRIGHT red menu bar. When I read the Bible in the early morning, I've just awakened and it is still dark outside. This Bible app can be set to black background with light grey letters (or red for words of Jesus) which my old sleepy eyes can read easily. I can set the desired font size as well. Thanks for keeping it SIMPLE.

Everything is great so far except, the highlight, a lot of times I try to highlight verses and it jumps around and I can't get the arrows to move in the direction I want to highlight, but I do love the study part being able to look at other verses that relate to the subject I am studying! Fix the highlight movement and I will give it 5 🌟
