Enjoyable but a Few Considerations

I like to use the app to listen to the Scriptures. It is pretty to easy to use and so far on my end there were not glitches or issues. The app has a lot of different English versions to choose from as well I did notice that one can choose from many different languages. There are a variety of reading plans to choose from. One can select plans that are topical, reading plans, or based on length. For motivation there are verses of the day, guided Scriptures, and guided prayers. A remind notification can be setup. The app allows users to create a community by adding friends and family through Facebook or Contacts. Another feature is that the app allows for the notes and highlights. Please note that these items do not carry over from translation or language version. The app has an internal reward system through an achievement system. For example, completing a reading plan regardless of length. To help incentivize those who are multi language speakers I would like see achievements related to readings completed in different languages. To help incentivize multiple translations I would recommend adding achievements related to how many different translations a user read. Finally, I would like to see statistics on which chapters were read because sometimes a user will get a whole Bible reading plan completed twice within a plan because certain plans reuse certain passages. This will help those who want to have a nice clean progress between plans.

Reviews should come up AFTER each use!

It is hard to remember any problems I’ve had with the app during a prior session, and I submit that the review opportunity should pop up after each use, rather than when someone starts using the app. I think that would help in identifying useful problems, issues and praises for the app. It is somewhat difficult and frustrating to bring up previous notes one has made. I make a lot of notes with scriptures which I need to review and further consider at a later point. But I can’t always find them! However, after further use, it’s pretty easy. Secondly, it is also difficult to remove a bible study plan that shows up four times under the selected plan list. I think I finally figured it out last night, but we’ll see... Thirdly, I do greatly enjoy the app, including the daily Bible verses and the opportunity to create a picture with the verse, or even use one’s own photos! That is fun! On the Bible study side, I love the ability to flip from one Bible version to another with great ease, while keeping with the passage you’re currently focused on. I use that option the most! It is also easy to find a verse one is looking for, or Bible chapters. I do enjoy and appreciate this app. Thank you for including such useful and creative options. Also, thank you for presenting the option for review and input, which I trust you read and take action on those you can identify as good for the app. Thank you for your time and consideration of the above matters.

Very accessible, plenty of options

I love the Bible app. It is remarkably one of the most helpful apps I have. It is super accessible, especially when you’re so busy you forget to read your Bible or spend some devotional time. I love the daily verse reminders, the numerous ways we can keep track of our reading, the beautiful options for making images out of verses. There is even an option for writing down prayers, and you can choose to make it private or public with friends. In the hustle and bustle of daily living, I am able to jot down a quick prayer and it doesn’t mean much at the moment, but months or weeks later I’d look back to it and realize just how impactful it was. Because it is so easy to write down a simple and quick prayer in the app, it helps with practicality: you can pray over it right away. And that one prayer changes a lot of things. I’m grateful for all the Bible app plans; there are so many options, short ones and long ones. I especially love the chronological and canonical reading plans. I love that the Bible app collaborates with a lot of Christian artists and preachers all over the country, even the world, and is able to make their voice, their teachings, and their wisdom accessible to the multitudes like me. Overall, an amazing app! Edit: lately there’s been trouble with bookmarking. The app doesn’t seem to stick to what you read last time, and it is difficult to keep track of what you read. I hope they fix this. Perhaps it is just on my end.

My all time favorite app since 2012

This app has been life changing for me. It helps me connect with God and the Word. There is a daily scripture and video that helps you apply the scripture of the day. You can search reading plans based on emotions or topics or anything. You can also search for specific scriptures based on the words you remember and look by book or sang related scripture. You can do reading plans alone, invite others to join you or make it private so no one knows the current plan you are reading. This app has helped many through many chapters in my life and I continue to use it weekly and daily. I searched for reading plans when I lost a job, was preparing for marriage and nor that I have been going through parenthood. I am so grateful for the technology that this app provides for me to see what God’s Word says about anything. This app offers the Bible in many languages that continue to grow and many versions of the bible. You can compare a verse with other versions to get a better understanding, make a note about it, share it with others through social media, other apps, email or text. You can make images with a verse or several and share it that way or make an album of photos in your phone with the scriptures you need to focus on at this point in your life. I use the app on my phone and iPad and I am so grateful to the developers for making this amazing app and continue to make it better through th years! Thank you so much!

What a Beautiful, Powerful Tool!!!

Having access to different translations makes digging into God’s Word for precious treasure an awesome adventure!!! Being able to search on certain topics, even with partial words or phrases is a great feature as well. Another blessing is being able to read it in the language and dialect i was born in. Though I didn’t learn the Bible in those languages growing up, I get blessed when I refer to it and get better understanding because of it! Thank you for making it available and thank you for the devotionals, videos, studies, languages, community, kids and teen resources, and for continually adding more to help us grow spiritually. A couple of suggestions would be: 1. To give us the ability to go back and forth with the results of a search, where we’re able to open up a reference, read the context, and then go back to the list, remembering where we were. Right now, if I open up a reference in the list to read for context, I can’t go back, and I have to type the search all over again and figure out where I was. 2. To give us the ability to highlight partial words or phrases, instead of whole verses of scripture. Sometimes, there are only certain words or key phrases that the Lord is highlighting to us, and it would be great if we could only highlight that word for impact. Thank you for always making the app better, and for making it more engaging to be in the Word!!! You are giving us a gift that is a treasure!

Love this app

What I really love about this app is the convenience of having the Bible at my fingertips on a daily basis. The app is setup to give you a quick daily verse but also a little longer (no more than 5 minutes) learning experience based on that verse and there’s a video attached so you don’t feel all alone trying to figure things out on your own. However, the best part of this app for me would have to be the option to have all these words read to me so that I can understand and gain all the knowledge and understanding while doing my hair in the morning or cooking dinner in the evening. The creators really put some serious thought, effort, attention to detail and time in their content and the app’s ability to cater to as well as deliver what their audience wants and needs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making such an amazing, versatile, and valuable gift for every and any person who has access to a smartphone (these days it is almost impossible to find people don’t or can’t get their hands on a smartphone. Having a smartphone is just about absolutely every person on earth’s necessity.). I don’t have enough words to describe how important and useful this app is to myself and many others. As an added and wonderful gift, this app is FREE. What a great resource right at our fingertips for every community and it is free. I don’t know about anyone else but this is an awesome way for me to learn and grow in my faith and walk with God.

Im writing this review more as a suggestion i don't know if it will actually work or happen or if it even is a good idea in the first place but my suggestion is to add a feature to watch bible based sermon clips or speeches with exact book and verse attached to the videos that the video is referring to. Since the creation of tik tok I have had to delete all social media apps multiple times because of the captivating and addictive algorithms that are implemented into all of these social media apps. There is something about the endless rabbit hole of scrolling through your phone that inhibits you from realizing how much time you are wasting on the app. Not to mention that often times i find myself not even remotely interested into what i'm actually watching. I find myself just mindlessly scrolling to the next video just to satisfy the urge for more dopamine in my mind. Now my suggestion is definitely counterintuitive and possibly very dumb of me but my reasoning for seeing a similar feature to watch videos in the bible app is that instead of watching things i shouldn’t be on any other social media app i can at least watch more videos that are based on scripture. In this way i will at least be learning more about Jesus and Gods word while i watch the videos. I really dont know if this is a good idea and nor do i take credit for it because it was most likely thought of before this. Maybe by making this suggestion an even better idea can stem from it.

The reason it’s amazing

This Bible app is an amazing app to have and you’re everyDay life, The first thing I did when I said this up when I first got my new phone was turn on verse of the day because they can be very very helpful. Because they have verses in the Bible that can be about what to do when you’re going through stuff and I am going through a lot of hard things right now in my life and this is one of the times that it is been the most helpful in my life because you are able to set up a little notifications and each and every day at whatever time you want Little notifications will pop up and remind you to pray and have devotion time with God, this is just such a great app to have when you download the app and you’re setting it up as you’re setting it up you are able to select these little things some say I’m starting to lose hope in GodAnd it’s starting to get tired of waiting on God to show me something or whatever you select which ever one you’re feeling and each and every day when you get your verse of the day it’ll be a verse about what you’re going through from the Bible and will help you get through each and every day of this season that you’re going through even when it doesn’t make sense that can help a lot. this is also a great encouragement to have in your life to help you have God in your every day life and be with him more and more and want to be with him more and more. This is a great app for Christians and I hope you decide to download it because it will definitely change your life.😊😁😉

I love this Bible program especially like that I can actually listen to the Bible when I'm doing other things Makes Bible reading a breeze for people on the go any time and place. I can't say enough of great things about the Bible app. I tell others about it and recommend it. I listen as I drive, work or study. I use it every day and at night before I sleep. It’s a must for any Bible student I recommend the Bible app for other people that are looking for a Bible program I love the Bible app thank you for it’s free use When I need to study the Word or a particular passage or chapter I like to listen to that Word and play it over and over at . Still my go if I’m waiting for an appointment. I can read the word sitting in church. I can use it to compare other scriptures to the one being used such a blessing. I’ve been using that feature a lot lately. when I’m reading the word sometimes I want to compare the Bible translations. I use the new compare scriptures with the translation that I happen to have open. Also, in church, I use it to compare other translations of the scripture that’s being used by the speaker, which brings much more understanding & comprehension Also, when I’m doing personal reading where I stop reading the next time I open the app it’s exactly where I left off so I can continue doing my personal readings when I have to do a devotional for church it is always a great help comparing scriptures and explaining to whoever might be reading exactly what that verse is saying

Every Bible study tool I need

When the Lord had reawakened my faith I couldn’t afford to buy a bible, so I tried searching for a free version and was so encouraged and grateful to find the youversion bible app. Not only is it access to any version of the Bible I could want, but the verse of the day is so encouraging as is guided prayer to keep me praying and close to God every day. The plans are a wonderful way to help me understand the books of the Bible, and I especially love the access to multiple versions of the Bible right at my fingertips. When I’m having trouble understanding a particular verse, chapter or book the option to easily study two versions side by side (just turn my phone to landscape, tap the upper right to select side by side icon and choose from upper left drop down menu for which second version I want) helps me learn and understand so much more. Thank you, YouVersion, for a truly free Bible app that offers every bible study tool and prayer encouragement I could ever want. More recently I found the option to connect with YouVersion brothers & sisters in Christ, and we encourage each other through reading various plans together and having the option to share our thoughts on the comments page at the end of each day’s reading. This has made it so I look forward even more to reading and learning from various plans each day and given me a sense of community with other believers. YouVersion is a great resource that I look forward to using each day!

Cec loves JesusVersion: 10.15.1
Newcomer

I grew up in a non religious household. My mother was traumatized by her experience being raised by a mother that forced Jehovah’s Witness beliefs and practices onto her, and she felt like she didn’t want to do the same to me so I grew up not knowing religion at all. As I got older I met people that stood by their religion and their God and I began to get the feeling that I was missing out on a major part of life and a major part of my being/self. I just found this app and already with the daily readings/prayer I feel like I’m connected to something that is all encompassing and I feel more grounded and secure as I go through daily life. Like I am not alone and someone has my back. I feel like I’m better able to take on the struggles, and the things that would normally be hard to overcome are now easier to handle. This app made it easy for me to dive into a world that was foreign to me but a world that I wanted to know badly and just didn’t know where to start or who to ask. I’ve always felt like it would be awkward to just show up to a church not knowing anything and that I wouldn’t be able to just pick up where they are starting off, like I’d need some background knowledge before attending any services. But with this app I feel like I don’t necessarily need to go to church, I can have a practice in my own space. Thank you to those who created this app and to those that contribute to the daily meditation, it’s helped me more than I can put into words.

Great app

On the plus side, I like being able to highlight passages, save them and add notes, read different versions and do that side by side to compare translations. I like pretty much all the features and it has helped me gain a better understanding of the Bible simply by being able to read it. I’m on my second time through reading it. It’s extremely convenient being on my devices instead of having to carry an actual copy around. This way I can jump in any time of day and read a little more. I like being able to connect with other people through the app. I like how it keeps track of daily reading streaks. Sometimes that actually helps me remember to do daily reading when I don’t necessarily feel like it because don’t want to break my streak. The only thing that bugs me about the app is the way you phrase the question when you ask for a rating and review. “Do you love the Bible App?” I’m sure I’m getting into the weeds too much, but you have an app for THE BIBLE which is all about the source and definition of love. It’s about loving other people and loving God, not inanimate objects, not money, not animals and certainly not apps. I guess I just think it’s kind of stupid to have an app about the Bible and then ask if I “love” the app. Seems like the creator of the app didn’t connect all the dots or didn’t actually read the Bible. As apps go this is 1 minor thing compared to many great features, it just really bugs me for some reason.

Finding my Faith (again)

I downloaded this app for my journey into my finding my faith. It’s been 17 years since I prayed or read a Bible. Once I was a well versed Christian lady who attended church twice every Sunday, on Wednesdays and every time there was something going on at the church. Personal tragedy struck and I stepped away from my faith and God. I stepped away from myself. Over the last year I have felt an empty part of me that was wanting. I didn’t know what I was wanting. Then, when I found that I couldn’t even give inspiration to others anymore I hit my knees and that’s when I knew what I was missing. I began looking to God again and talking to him. I came across this app and it has helped me so much! Aside from the Bible which I can read or have it read to me, the Bible studies are very insightful. I love that I can pick from an ever growing list of Bible studies. Anything from depression to marriage and everything in between. The daily inspections and notifications have touched me so many times. It seems like there is always something that comes into notifications right when I need it. Like a text from a friend that just saying “Hey! I am here.” Some things are right on time and exactly what I need at that moment. I love being able to take a verse that moves me and make a pic of it and save to my phone or share on FB. You can connect with friends and family and contacts that also use the app and you can participate in group Bible studies. I love this app!

Really amazing and VERY helpful

The convenience is simply amazing that you can just plug your phone and look up information at will. I really like how you can take notes and highlight what you read and it also keeps a log. I love the fact that I can select different versions of the Bible instantly. For some reason when your phone falls asleep and you open the Bible app again sometimes the app has to reload and loses your place. That iPad version allows me to take notes a little bit better than the iPhone version because it’s not very easy to switch back-and-forth from reading to creating notes on the iPhone version. I hope they address this in the future. I really love the reminder at a specific time each day for the word of the day. They have a new streak feature which counts the days each day you open up the Bible app which is great! However, if you miss one day it resets everything all the way back to day one. Somehow I wish they can use some support system that collects all of your days like you open the Bible and connected with God‘s word 360 times last year and only missed five days. I also like the social aspect of connecting with your friends and family as to what you were reading. However, there doesn’t seem to him much discussion from the social aspect, but maybe that’s me and my friends. Who is I totally recommend downloading this is in free app connecting with God each day. May the Lord bless you.

I LOVE the Bible App

I am so grateful for the Bible app. I do all my Bible reading on the app. I have read through the Bible 4 times thanks to the many plans they have available. I love how you can easily switch between translations to see the passage in different variations. I also use the audible version many days to listen to the Bible when I’m in the car or walking. This allows me to experience the word in different ways and to always get my daily bread no matter what the day brings. I am a youth group leader and use the Bible app reading plans with my students. We read the Bible passages on the same day and are able to comment and read what the Lord is showing each of us. I LOVE the verse of the day and the prayers that go along with them. I find them really impactful and feel the Lord uses it daily to speak to me. I love how it walks you through study, reflection, prayer, and application and point my students to use it daily. Additionally, I love how you get to hear from a diverse set of followers of Christ and hear their take on the passage. I also love that you can share prayers and showcase you are praying for your friends prayers. I have stayed connected spiritually to students I worked with ages ago through the sharing prayer section. Really I love everything about the Bible app and I am so grateful for all those who make it available and encourage students, new followers of Christ, as well as those who have been studying the word for years to download it.

Easy Access and Daily Reminder of God’s Love and Power

Although we can see God’s Love, Grace and Power everywhere, from the touch of our own heartbeats, in children’s laughter and in His beautiful creativity that surrounds in nature. However, when I feel overwhelmed or depressed and can’t seem to “see” , or even have the energy to muster up to try to “look” to “see “ God’s power , for whatever reason, be it something that I’m personally experiencing in my own life, or in the lives of my loved ones. This simple app brings powerful daily scripture to me . The Lord slows everything around me to be able to take the time to read and breathe in the verse of the day . When reading the short daily scripture, it fails to remind me of who God is and how much He truly loves us. You Version has easy access to God’s people and specifically reminds me that I’m not alone in the difficulties of my own life. Providing 5 minute daily plans with scripture and personal devotions , to videos of what the Lord has done for others and can do for me. Biblical Movies that are at my fingertips, and so much more that I’ve yet to explore myself. But every time I open this simple app, any chaos around me stops, and in those moments the Lord gives me peace to “see Him” and to actually feel His love and faithfulness for me. And I, in turn wish to become stronger in my faithfulness to Him. He is love and YouVersion helps me to really draw closer to Him everywhere, everyday in my life. I wish that for everyone.

Fantastic APP

I downloaded this from the APP store while I was still living in China. Supposedly, all electronic bibles were to be removed but this was still easily available. THAT was awesome. A friend & I did a small Bible study over there. We used the YouVersion APP to do it. The ability to share a study with other users is INVALUABLE! We could comment on the daily or weekly readings and discuss right in the APP. Another great feature is the availability of different translations and the ease with which I can switch between them for a single passage. Audio is also an excellent feature, if only because I don’t know how to pronounce Old Testament names. Finally, I love the ability to create verse pictures with any verse I wish to share or memorize, in whichever translation I prefer. My one big complaint is in the way the study plans are set up: when I choose a plan, the APP decides the speed at which I should complete it AND if I don’t go at IT’S designated speed, whenever I open the APP it automatically takes me to where it thinks I should be NOT where I actually left off. This became an issue when we decided to use a 7 part plan over 7 weeks, meeting weekly to read & discuss. The problem was, the APP had decided that we should complete the plan in 7 days. Each time we met at least 1 person would accidentally start reading from the incorrect day. It was also an issue for me after my hospitalization, for almost a week I was out of it, so when I picked up my iPad for devotional again, I found myself a week behind.

Deepens Friendships

Think of any topic you’d like to study with a friend. The Bible app is an amazing way to connect with friends on a deeper level and improve relationships. You just choose the devil you want to do and invite friends to do it with you many of the Devos him a space at the end that asks you to journal what God has said to you through your reading that day you can read your friends comments and comment on them as well! It takes the guesswork out of learning the things you want to learn. Each year my two best friends and I choose a word as part of our goals and accountability with each other. This year mine is intention. In just a few moments of searching I can find daily devotionals on intentional living... each one inspirational and encouraging in it’s own way! The bookmarks are a great way to read through the Bible never losing your place and the notes section is fantastic for journaling. It’s fun to have the Bible read to you, some of the devotionals have videos that can be very convicting and motivating especially for those who don’t love to read. Sometimes I create images of verses that I’m trying to memorize and make that my home screen. I love to see things I’ve highlighted in the past show up in my daily reading with my highlighter marks in them! I remember getting a 30 day streak and there was confetti all over the screen to celebrate my time in the word. The app remembers your streaks and your perfect weeks and it’s kind of exciting! Kudos to the teams of people who make this app truly amazing!

Grateful

Using the bible app has opened my mind and heart to better look and concentrate on all and specific aspects of life & my walk with the Lord . Having so many important subjects categorized, being able to highlight , folders on subject areas like encouragement, memorize so that you can set and achieve the most important goals we will ever have is amazing . At first, my mind was full of doubt.. I had truly came to a low point and was giving up on myself, my dreams & specifically that I could in fact be firm and expand my knowledge of God’s word. All my life I have loved his word but I deal with ADHD, depression, panic amongst other thing’s & being able to open my app. Read my daily verse and then continue to explore , rather that’s reading through a book of the bible which I just started and am reading John … I’m on chapter 5 , even if I miss a day … I don’t analyze it I just keep jumping back on the horse.. or in a crisis or hard situation & I just need an emergency scripture to speak to me and/or for me to speak out loud and declare. This app is truly a blessing! I plan to partner, serve, help financially, so that I can be part of helping everyone around the world be able to have this app! Thank you again ! & for my skeptical people ( I get it ) I am a lot of thing’s but I’m not a fraud! If I took the time to write this long review, it’s because I sincerely believe in this app! Give it time and keep on fighting the good fight of the faith ! Blessings in Jesus name 🙏🏻

I have always believed in a higher power but never understood the Bible or biblical terms. However I am a recovering drug addict and in the big book of AA god comes into play a lot. People kept telling me to pray or ask for help by praying. At first I felt dumb and awkward because I didn’t know how to pray but I tried over the years here and there but never remembered getting results. Well something is happening in my life right now considering the situation I’m currently in and I’m struggling to fight for my sobriety but I keep doing the next right thing. And I do feel better after I pray. As odd as it is to hear myself say that and to tell others on top of it . I’m starting to enjoy it and not feel so akward. I think I never thought that I had the right to ask god for anything because I have always been broken. Even as a child. I just lost my mom while I was In treatment but it was the best place for me to be at that time. And I think god took her while I was in there because he knew I would need that support. I always had trouble finding the right words to pray but because of this app they are just flowing from my thoughts and I love that I can save them. I wish I knew some better terms to use tho. Like am I praying properly or is there even a proper way to pray as far as wording goes? Anyways thanks so much for this app . It’s helping me tremendously and if my prayers start being answered that will make me have 100% faith in god and Jesus . Thank you god bless!

Great app but lacks bookmarks tools

2025: Everything is still great with this free app. However their bookmarks are still an issue for me so I’m now paying for the Life Bible app. While it’s not free, it has a much better means of organizing Bible verses and passages. Still, YouVersion Bible is still one of the best and worth sending donations for. And their Bible Plans and devotions are still hands-down the best! /// 2015: Yes, this is THE best free Bible app anyone could ever not purchase. I highly recommend all of us donate $$ to this organization and the great work they perform to provide. Have you donated $5 or $10? The one thing they fall short on is in the bookmarks area. I love the ability we have to highlight, tag and save our favorite verses. The challenge comes when you have a hundred or more and you're looking for a certain one that doesn't come to mind and you didn't include the tag you're looking for. And on the app you can only look up one tag at a time. Another challenge is the inability to export your bookmarks in any organized form. Their recommendation is to view them on their website and highlight, copy and paste. This seems a bit challenging and could be improved upon for those serious about memorizing verses. The capability to view and compare different versions is fantastic. The reading plans are fantastic! Thank God for these guys. I look forward to the improvements they continue to make and know they will overcome this challenge. Thanks Youversion. God bless you!

The app works well

Free yet has all the features one could ever need for bible study. The text can be adjusted in that you can change the font, text size, and screen color. Plenty of bible versions to pick from - many of the more "popular" versions can be downloaded and accessed offline. You can interact with the verses by highlighting or underlining text and writing notes - just as you would in a normal bible. When studying the bible, this app has all you need, and is in my opinion superior to having multiple bibles, note books, pens, glasses and highlighters. Carry multiple bibles for different versions? Use the app to quickly switch to a different version. Carry a notebook for keeping notes? The app does that and organizes it neatly for you - leave the notepad and pens at home. Font too small? Adjust the size! Leave the glasses at home. Overall a very good app. 5 stars. P.S. note to developers - please add a way to indicate to users which verses we have written notes on, from the reading screen. The “notes” feature is a bit useless if not visible directly from the reading screen, perhaps as an asterisk next to the verse. For example, say I highlighted a verse, then added a note for that verse. I can see visibly that it’s highlighted, but whether or not I wrote a note on it a few weeks, months or years ago, there’s no way to know other than leaving the reading page entirely and going go the “notes” section of my profile, then manually digging through my un-sorted “notes” to find anything added for that particular verse.

My Streak

I know this may sound weird for a 50 year old man but I pay attention to my streak. I have a friend who had a streak of over 2,000 days of reading the daily verse and forgot one day and had to start all over. He was so upset and I thought it was so silly that he was upset. He explained to me that the daily verse is how he always starts his day and it was important to him to start his day off in Gods word. Next thing you know I’m up to over 100 days and low and behold I missed a day. I was so upset at myself because I too had challenged myself to start my day in Gods word. I’m back up now and here’s to many more days of reading the daily verse. I guess I wrote the above review either earlier this year or late last year and forgot to submit it. After reading it I realized that I haven’t been spending much time in Gods word. It’s so easy to get distracted by every day stuff and once you’re off track the day just slips on by. I was asked to co- lead a small group at our church and if I’m honest I’m a little nervous. I am excited that my wife will be leading with me and she really is knowledgeable in Gods word and can help me. I’m excited about us preparing together. We have been married for 25 years but I know God will reveal some things about each other as we prepare together. This app is a 5 star all the way. So much learning material and I love the video and audio options. No doubt this app is a vessel to point individuals to Christ.

The Best App available, period!

The youversion bible app has been instrumental in my faith. And it’s so much more than Gods most holy and infallible Word.. its a teacher in the palm of my hand and is always with me. It grants me access to the tools and teachings I so desperately want and need to get through life. God bless the entire staff at YouVersion and every hand that has made this application as amazing as it is. There will always be something to be said for opening and holding the physical book of the Bible in your hands as you read and study its passages and the endless knowledge and wisdom within its pages.. but there’s also something to be said to have access to your Bible at all times in a digital form such as this application. I could go on and on.. it’s just that great of a gift that an app like this is available. The primary focus and goal of us as believers is to share Gods word and to teach and reach as many people as we possibly can with the message of the gospel and to let the world see Jesus through us. And we can’t do that without his word guiding us. This app has changed the world! Thank you Jesus for the people who created this app!! Please consider donating to YouVersion, because they do all of this for free, because that’s what they’ve been called to do. And any financial gain goes right back into app development to keep this going so that it can truly be taken to every corner of the world!! Jesus is King, God bless you and thank you guys!!

A Blessing

I cross reference often...it would be great if the scripture reference would go the suggested verses and return to the verse I began with. I have been having error problems when I note or highlight too. However. It's a joy to have the scripture wherever we go...as a couple we end our day together listening to the Word....A blessing. I wish searching for scripture was more defined however, many times I give up and go to my concordance because the application doesn't find the scripture I'm hunting. Still, we PTL for this App. Appreciate and Thank you for the making the Word available to the public...it never returns to Him void. Use the Word daily...depending on The Truth that’s connected directly to The Throne of Grace. Continue to use on a daily basis...it’s more than a valuable source. Blessings to all involved in the ministry of His Word. I just discovered that this app. Now has the tool of cross referencing and returning to the original text! I have been using two iPads in order to expedite searching the word. What a blessing! Thank you Sorry that the cross referencing that I really liked didn’t work out…truth is, I liked it much better than what you’ve developed now. History helps, but the drop down was great. However, I remain grateful for the pleasure of all the features you offer. Studying the Word and the depth God’s supernatural direction, in unveiling new hidden truth, as the Spirit brings new inspiration and revelation. Blessings to all❣️

The Bible App is an amazing that I have really enjoyed and got a lot out of. I love the daily verses and how they have them set up where you can listen to them being read by someone from different churches or religious organizations and they give a little bit more about the scripture. Which leads you to a prayer, and then to a brief devotional, then one question as to what you might be able to do that week pertaining to the devotional in a way to be more like Jesus for others. It ends with a prayer and the verse of the day and it save it all together so if you wanted to got back to that at another time you have it! I really love those! Also I love being able to share the daily verses as a kind of ministry on Facebook & Instagram so that others are able to read and see God living Word! The study plans on this app are phenomenal. You can choice short ones, longer ones, whatever you prefer. And lastly I do really like their new podcast! They have brilliant speakers that know the Bible and it’s amazing how much I have learned just listening to one. Overall anyone who is looking for a Bible App I do not think you would be disappointed with this app by any means. You can also have friends on there and do Bible Studies together etc. It just gives a lot to those that are seeking to find God in His Word and maybe a little community with the same common goals! It has really filled a big need for me! Thanks to my family who got me linked up and to those that made the App! God Bless You All & Pass It On ♥️🙏🏼

Convenient & Customizable

I’m in love with the convenience of the Bible app, with the word of God always in my back pocket. There’s no longer an excuse for why someone can’t find the time to sneak in some one-on-one time with our Heavenly Father, even if it’s just 5 minutes a day! The reading plans are fantastic, with a wide assortment from which to choose. And new plans are constantly being added! So I can always find a plan that’s perfect for the season in which I’m currently facing. I love having the opportunity to choose my favorite version of the Bible to read, and to highlight or make notes if desired. If there was anything I’d like to see improve, I’d perhaps like to be able to better sort the reading plans that I have saved on my future-reading list, either by moving my favorites to the very top, or by sorting these favorites according to their topic. All in all, I’m a huge fan of the Bible app and how it has helped me to build a healthy habit of reading the Word daily, oftentimes even multiple times each day. I love the ability to read scripture, or choose a devotional plan, or find a verse that suits my current situation. I love the flexibility of reading plans in private or alongside others. And lastly, I’m in love with the ease of praying with others! Needless to say, this Bible app has definitely helped me to strengthen my walk with Jesus! Thank you for introducing this app and spreading the Good News to new believers like myself!

Such a Blessing in time of crisis as I groan in wordless prayer

He came to the ER on April 24, with a very bad cough. He was put on oxygen antibiotics and steroids and has gotten worse and worse. He has had multiple strokes, never having any neurological issues before. His platelets dropped to 32,000 when normal is 100,000 and dangerous is 50,000. He has been on a ventilator since the morning after the 1st stroke. A look down his esophagus at his heart showed mitral and aortic value infections. The valves can’t be removed until he has been 2 weeks post stroke and and I must make all medical decisions for him. So thankful for uplifting music to carry my heavy heart. My love forever passed into eternity days after i began this. i have been in shock and grief since. Beginning to come out of it as the one year anniversary approaches. While he lived, I had so much hope and belief that God would heal him! When i knew he couldnt recover, letting him pass was the only thing to do! Bob wouldnt have wanted anything else. Every day now is one closer to eternity, reunited. God gave him rest at His appointed time and what I do now is also in His hands, with a few blunders along the way. I havent listened to I Heart again until today, though the radio is always on in my home and car, on Christian stations that bless me just as IHeart does when no other stations are around. I’m old school that way, but learning to make playlists at 69 years young! Most grateful for this app!

Good Morning God

I have had this app downloaded for years but until Covid I did not take advantage of all that wonderful “gifts” it holds. During this time my dearest friend from California invited me to do two devotional plans with her. They both not only spiritually blessed my life, brought me to my friend, but also created a new habit for me. I am even on my way to finishing a 100 day devotional that I had begun several years ago. On top of that their is the Good Morning devotional that greets you on the Home page. I would not miss that for anything! Every morning it has been wonderful to meet new pastors as well as one I know as they inspire and encourage me as I begin my day! God has developed a new habit of beginning my day with Him here, and I am so thankful! Since I began this review I have begun doing a plan with not only my friend from California but one from Puerto Rico. Through the plan we have done together I have seen God work wonderfully in our lives. He is truly an amazing God! Another update, one of my friends that lives closer but is still an hour away excepted my invitation to join my in doing a plan together. That was months ago and we are still opening our mornings with God through the devotional plans we do “together”. How great is our God! God continues to work in my life and my friends’ lives transforming us in ways I could never have imagined. Thank You, my Father for the amazing grace and mercy through the work of Your people! Amen

An Absolutely Essential App for Growing Your Faith!

I honestly can't say enough good things about the YouVersion Bible App. It's truly a 5-star experience and an indispensable tool for anyone looking to deepen their relationship with God. The abundance of Bible studies available is simply incredible. No matter what topic or book of the Bible you're interested in, you're guaranteed to find relevant and insightful plans that help you understand Scripture in new ways. The capabilities to take notes and highlight are also game-changers for me. Being able to easily mark passages that resonate, jot down reflections, and revisit them later has transformed my personal study time. And the fact that I can listen to the Bible is a huge plus! Whether I'm driving, working out, or just relaxing, I can still engage with God's Word, which is incredibly convenient and helps me stay connected throughout my day. Beyond these core features, YouVersion offers so much more. I especially love the social aspect of having friends on the app. It creates a wonderful community where we can encourage each other, share insights, and even do studies together. The daily verses, various translations, and personalized reading plans just add to the overall richness of this app. Thank you, YouVersion, for creating such a powerful, user-friendly, and comprehensive tool that truly helps people engage with the Bible in meaningful ways. If you're looking for a Bible app, look no further – this is it!

The youversion at first was just a quick access to look up verses or read along at church. Then I enjoyed showing my under 4 grandchildren the semi animated Bible stories that told the Bible stories on their iPad as well as mine or the phone. As they advanced in years staying at my house most of their preschool days so did the expansion of the number of stories and then puzzles. ( I basically raised them till age 5) that caught on by then that I started my daily devotions via the Bible app so they would lay in bed in the am to " do theirs and get to play on IPad for stories lol" it has helped Me to keep my daily am devotions first by the daily verse of the day and explanations by the ministers, authors and singers that the now preteen often recognizes after finding the kid Bible experience!! Now that they are with parents more and less with me, I've grown to love the various daily and category plans!! I often share them with daughters and grandkids when I think appropriate or needed! You have so helped me , my family and so many others get in touch with the "real Bible" behind the basic stories! THANKYOU for retraining me the daily habit and helping evangelize the world including my family that our churches often hadn't done!! For three years the various plans plus daily read thru the bible with Nicky and Pippa have helped me so much!! Watching Craig on a Sunday verse of the day after Amy and others just gives me continued hope for my family and the world! THANKYOU

I love this program the app portion is good too

I love this read the bible in a year program. I love that it's connected to all my devices so I can pick up where I left off. I love the way the scripture is arranged. I have tried to read the bible in a year in the past. But with this program, my heart has opened. I've really enjoyed reading the word. I know I'm getting more out of it through a loving heart. My only small issue is the app is not very intuitive. You have to get used to how to operate with in it. But once you have the small learning curve down this is a first rate app that you will love. I do use this as my primary bible as well. I love being able to share scripture that convicts me. I can just click and then share via email, text, or various social media. Through my reading of the bible, I'm on day 235 today, I have found so many scriptures help me address problems or concerns in my own life. I've always heard that's what the bible was intended to do. But I really grasp the concept now. I'll be immediately starting the program over when it's finished. I am sure I can gain so much more knowledge. One word caution. I actually got this app several years ago. I've used it as a bible at church to look up scripture. But I've never committed to it until this year. If you're reading this far down my review, please pray for a spirit of conviction. Take advantage of this resource. It will improve your life. Heart change matters so much more than physical change. But many times physical change will follow.

100+ stars!! Love love love love it!!

I absolutely love this app! I can do my devotions & read the bible all whenever I want to & as often as I can with it right here when my bible isn't accessible! So many versions & languages & it's just amazing & paired with the kid one is amazing!! Everyone should have it! Update!! I've had it for 5yrs now still love it & I use it daily!! It's so amazing & im so thankful for it! Partner it with the abide app to pray with & the kids bible app for your kids & your set!! UPDATE I STILL LOVE IT BUT dropping from 5 star to 2 star until it’s fixed. why does it keep acting up on my iPhone? I have to delete it and reinstall constantly even a few times a day sometimes or else my notes app goes sideways and I can’t see all the words I’m typing and it’s driving me crazy. I take all my notes there. Help! I’m at life’s surge right now trying to make it work and it keeps messing up :( Wish I could walk up and talk to the creator since he’s here :) I took a bunch of notes & saved it frequently from all the speakers made sure it was saved before I left. Opened it this morning & besides 2 sentences it was All gone! I’m getting really frustrated with this app. I guess pen & paper or my phones notes app it is & just use this for the Bible when I forget mine but go back to pen & paper until this is fixed. I wanted to go over my notes & remember what I learned & put it to work now I can’t remember it all & my notes are gone. :(

Great App!! ❤️✝️

The bible app is nice because there are so many ways to customize it to personalize the app for each person using it. You can highlight in it and take notes just like you could in a physical bible, you can change the language settings for the entire app and bible versions if you know someone who speaks another language, and you can change the version to a preferred one or switch back and forth to compare them. I like it because it’s basically like a personalized bible that you can carry around anywhere with you. It’s a great way to share the gospel because you can send verses, plans, and videos to friends and family, and basically anyone in your contact list. There are thousands of bible plans to choose from depending on what your life is like. Another feature I like about this app is that you can have “friends” and invite other people on the app that you may know to do a bible study or plan with you. (I have the bible app because of a friend who invited me.) Your friends on the app can encourage you in your walk, see verses you have highlighted or taken notes on if you choose to make them public, and pray for any prayers that you have posted. If you have a more private prayer, you can simply choose not to share it. There are a lot more cool features to the bible app such as verse of the day, verse images, and Kids Bible Experience, to name a few, but overall YouVersion is 5 out of 5 stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love the Truth

I am so grateful for the return of God coming here for his people. I’m so grateful that he called me and was willing to take the time to make a change in my life and others around. I’m so thankful from the beginning of my life that you were always around and everything that I’ve ever been through you never give up on me. thankful that you are here you’re teaching us to love one another and to accept people into our lives that we heart in mind is speaking and if he’s willing to help out someone from a foreign country or different believe on the right path with our Lord Jesus Christ and willing to forgive, I feel this is an amazing test to show if you’re really a believer and love and how Jesus Christ teaches us and exercise in our daily lives so grateful that God has mercy on us especially me because I have a tendency to give up on myself and not understand my worthiness and his sight. Thank you for helping me understand and helping me get through the toughest time in my life amending my broken heart. Thank you for your love thank you for your return and thank you for thinking of everybody, even those who are, a different walk of life treat them kindly very humbling to know how truly you love and truly care to give and keep on giving and never give up love is so precious that I just need to take the time to reflect on everything you’re doing for us stop worrying about myself and putting you first father son Holy Spirit amen

90 day streak will change your life

It has been a tough road for me and my family of 7 and I decided to take leap of faith and make the Bible app the most important part of my day and listening and reading Gods word. At first it was tough and I felt like nobody cared or was listening. As I started reading Gods word and began plans that this app provided I started looking at life In A whole different perspective. I listened to others that had similar experiences and difficulties as me and I was able to learn how they were able to get from point A to point B. After completing 90 days I still struggled wondering where God was and was he really listening to each one of my prayer’s every day. It was in my 95th day that prayers started to be answered, God was listening! Like a lost sheep he came to my call and I followed. I am so blessed to have a master as wonderful as Jesus Christ! I thank the Creator for building an app that allows me to spend time with Gods word and the plans that offer guidance in life’s struggles. Remember That God is a personal relationship between you two. Don’t let people or religions get in the way of your personal relationship with the creator. Remember Jesus came for the Sinners and the people that have had trauma in there life. Just be patient he will always answer! And remember faith without works is dead. You have to make the move and get out there in the world showing your faithfulness. Nothing happens if nothing happened. God bless and God speed to all that hear.

Keeps getting better!

I love this app! I have used it for years for personal reading, study, following along during readings at church, and for family devotionals. The pastors at my church each have a different preferred translation, and I love how I can easily change to whichever they are using. I also love that I can listen to God’s word, which allows me to stuff it into the cracks of my life. Listening to someone else pronounce the names and places within the genealogies streamlines family reading and allows us to see the larger picture, understanding the importance of those places and people instead of puzzling over the combinations of letters that identify them. This app includes many, many different reading plans, and keeps adding more. It also gives the option to share content with others, putting it in the category of social media, which in my opinion is intrusive since I value privacy. At least it’s optional, which I appreciate. The one thing I wish I could do that it doesn’t do is to place a bookmark where I finish reading so I can pick up there the next day. There’s a history function which is great, but it only tells you where you started reading in a given book, not where you left off. Or you can highlight a verse where you left off, but to use the highlight is too complicated. I just want to place a bookmark (or turn down the corner of a page) in the translation I’m reading through with my family so when I return to it after using my plan or searching passages, I could easily find the place where we pick up for the next time. Excellent app! Love it!

AMAZING

I have never done an app review before but with this, I can't say enough great things! This is an amazing app to have for FREE to grow closer and learn Gods word and his purpose he has for us. I love the fact it has so many different things you can do within the app. It even has its own prayer journal and you can go back and reflect your prayers on which ones God has answered for you. I love how it has devotionals and study plans that send notifications so you won't forget. I also love their daily insights. I love everything about this app! So far, I feel much closer to God utilizing this Bible app. It has helped me a lot. I can constantly and consistently through out the day have it with me and use it whenever and I also love that they have a profile for you in which you can add friends and share Gods word together. This is the best thing technology could offer within a Bible app! So thank you, for allowing us to be able to always have Gods word with us and making it so much fun to learn! And not to mention, EASY to learn because it has hundreds of different versions of the Bible you can switch to at anytime and it still keeps you on your page. You can also highlight verses and make notes or comments on any highlighted verse. I can't say enough good things about this! I highly recommend. My hope is that this will engage more people to want to read Gods word and follow in his footsteps because we need Jesus more than ever in this world right now. He is coming soon, and we have to prepare. This is a great way to start.

The Bible App Review!! 🤍✝️❤️😁🥰

This Bible App has helped me through many seasons of difficult times and it is truly a blessing to have. On this app you can start Bible Plans to help you through ANYTHING, with an online Bible you can choose in ANY version you want(including both the Old and New Testament with features such as highlight colors for verses, and as well as a note option for verses). This app also has a feature where you get a daily Bible Verse with a devotional, reflection, and prayer. Also, whatever you do on this app is COMPLETELY PRIVATE unless you add friends, such as starting a Bible plan, it will ask you if you want this plan to be seen by your friends or not. Also an add on to that friends part, you can add friends, and friends can add you, you can see each others activity(such as highlighted Bible verses, badges, and in-private Bible plans), in the community tab at the top of the home page. You can also do plans together and share the app and Bible verses with other people who might not have it!! You can also earn badges for achievements on the Bible app such as you completing your first plan, highlighting a 100 Bible verses, starting a plan around a certain time, challenge completions, and MANY more!!! This app is truly a blessing and is a great way to get you daily bread of Christ. 10/10 would definitely recommend this app, hope you enjoy it as much as I do, have a blessed day, and don’t forget to say Amen!!!! 🤍😁🥰✝️

It saved my life

I was so broken, depressed and useless when I downloaded this app. Even though I had been saved when I was 13 and rededicated my life several times, I was lost. I was not reading God’s word, going to church or with other Christians. Satan had his way with me. He knew my weaknesses and I chased the desires of my flesh. As of today, 167 days in a row in this app, reading the daily devotionals, completed 39 plans, sharing prayer requests, and praying for others, God has changed me and renewed me like never before in my life. The miracles that I’ve witnessed in my own life and others have me in awe with God. My desires have changed completely. God did that, not me. I’m even starting to get persecuted verbally for sharing God’s word. Praise God. Thank you for this app. It will continue to be a part of my day, every day. I pray one person may read this and relate to where I was, and have no other choice like me, but to give it a try. It was either take a new step or eventually die a very slow, agonizing death. Take a step of faith and see what God does in your life. It didn’t happen over night for me, yet it happened a lot faster than I could imagine. God is abundant in grace and mercy. His love is beyond my imagination. It was never about me and what I thought I really deserved (Absolutely nothing but punishment), it’s about who God is, as my loving Father. God is right there waiting on you...fall into His arms. You can trust Him, I promise.

Best Bible Reading

Update 4/4/23 I still love the You Version Bible app, however, as I’ve become older (needed to increase the font to read better) the print is not large enough. In addition as I read/listen to the verse of the day I am unable to increase the print and I’m not able to scroll down to read in the guided prayer section. I’ve had it for over 12 years. Reading God’s word has made me a much better person. I used to have severe depression & anxiety. Reading the Bible thru this app is so easy, reading the daily devotional lifts my mood, encourages me to look deeper into the Bible for guidance. The Bible app keeps track of the days and weeks that I read, sends me notifications each day and celebrates milestones too. I cannot say enough good things about this app. I completed reading the entire New Testament, when I wasn’t able to read, I turned on the audio so I never missed a word. Thank you so much for having this app created. Love that you had The Chosen on the app. Watched both seasons in a few nights and have watched it a couple more times as well. Love all the videos available in this app especially the daily verse ones. They explain the meaning of the verse so clearly. It’s a life changer and a life saver. God bless everyone who has made this available Addendum: Started the Kids Bible App with my almost 6 year old granddaughter! It’s perfect for her age. She loves listening, answering the questions, and coloring the pictures.

Almost perfect!

This bible app. has been such a blessing to me so many times. COUNTLESS times the Verse of the Day has been exactly what I needed at that moment. I can’t say enough good things about it. It would be perfect if; - it had the option of allowing me to adjust the length of time to complete the plans available as well as the option to adjust the START time. I realize the goal is to spend time in God’s Word DAILY, however life happens and I often fall behind or I want to finish in a certain length of time and because of the inability to edit the START time, I’ll finish later than I’d like. It’s extremely discouraging. Having the option to build a little cushion in the allotted completion time would make it so much more enjoyable! - it had the ability to turn off features such as the ‘streak’ feature. However, I have discovered there is an option to toggle each category and move where I’d like by placing those which encourage me on top and those which discourage me on bottom thereby avoiding seeing a big zero first thing! Thanks for that! - it had a better search engine for key verses. I often find myself turning to Google to find a specific verse I’m searching for - and finally I’d love to see more choices in the full bible reading plans. They are usually completed in one year. I’d like the option of a plan where you read a chapter a day from Genesis to Revelation which I haven’t found yet. Once again, thanks for all you do to make God’s Word come alive!

Long Time User!

I have had the YouVersion Bible app on my phone since probably about 2008 … I have seen so many amazing updates, and God moving in big ways! I love it for SOOO many different reasons: the plans/devotions, the content, being able to connect with friends, pray for each other - but one big reason I really love the app is because they make it free and accessible to EVERYONE. They don’t push payment down your throat or hide the best content behind a commitment to pay a ridiculous amount of money. I have tried using MANY different apps in addition to YouVersion, but they’ve just all gotten so greedy. I know that it takes money to operate these apps, I’m not naïve to that, but if YouVersion just passed 1B downloads and all of the content is free, then other apps can surely do it. I’d hate to see people who REALLY need the word turn away because of the appearance of greed. I found Glorify through YV, used it when it first started, and LOVED IT. I’d had many friends start using it, only to have them start charging an enormous amount just for us to be able to interact or use some of the best content on there. So, thank you to the developers of YouVersion, and to the many dedicated givers (sowers) who keep this app free, engaging and AMAZING!!! I use it every single day, along with good friends who do plans all together, hold each other accountable, and pray for each other, simply because we’ve been blessed with an awesome platform to do so!! Thank you again, and may God continue to bless you and your ministry always!!

You won’t regret it

This is a really great app with tons of resources that relates all aspects of your life to The Bible. Every impactful emotional event in your day to day or factual topic you want to learn or ponder on is in here. As well as reading plans. Short or longer reading plans. It also has multiple One Year Bible Plans. My family and I love the Taylor University Plan. It also has a free chronological reading plan I want to read next year just for fun to line up the events that took place in my mind. After going through the Bible last year some of it was hard to take in BUT… going through it again I’m starting to understand the tribes and ‘who begot who’. I believe you will too. I recommend messing around with this app for sure. AS WELL AS the ‘Through The Word’ App, it has an orange background with a book open and a flame coming out of it. A great Pastor named Kris goes chapter by chapter explaining what you’re about to read and brings you back to the basics of understanding and it’s very relieving listening to what you feel Jesus came here to do. Move everything you heard or were indoctrinated by titling of a religion or denomination that you were told to believe a certain way and LOOK for God’s Love in the Scriptures and pretend that every other believer no matter what someone else says is your brother or sister that you love and find out for yourself. Open your heart to seeing others and these stories through Gods eyes instead of yourself. God gave us His Word for a reason. Read it! Highly recommend.

So much easier to read and study

I have been using the app since January and I love the fact that each day you get up and a new versus the day. I’ve also started working on a plan where I’m reading the Bible throughout the year reading the Old Testament and the New Testament. I did another plan on there, had to do with with grief that was fantastic. I’ve been dealing with that grief for four years, I had five people who were close to me die in a very short period of time, the plan of grief just opened up my heart and made me look at things very differently so for that alone, I give this app five stars. It’s very easy to use. It has a great variety so if you start one of the study plans and you don’t like it, the narrator or how material is presentied, anything great you’ll go look at another Plan that is a better fit for you. The app it’s not just one denomination’s platform, but it is a Christian platform which, and that’s the purpose of it. I have already recommended this to several friends and will continue to do so. I encourage anyone who has an interest in knowing about God and Jesus to install the Holy Bible App and you will find an area that interest you. This is by far the most complete gathering of religious material from sources of all denominations and schools of thought. As you can see from my review I strongly believe in the Holy Bible App and use it daily for devotional and plans to learn God’s word in a way I understand.

God’s Plan for LisaVersion: 10.11.1
AMAZING APP

I NEVER write reviews for apps, however, this app is just too good for me not to write one. This app has brought me so close to God and the plans hit home. They literally change the way you see everything. With this app being in your life everyday, it definitely changes it for the good. There are all sorts of plans that you can choose from. It’s amazing how you can download a ton of different versions of Bibles too. It’s incredible how much you can learn in a matter of minutes. I recommend this to anyone that just wants to have a better relationship with God, it doesn’t matter how religious you are, it’s for everyone. As long as you are consistent, have an open heart and mind, your life will definitely change for the good because you are letting God into your life by having this app basically have all the information you need to do so. All the features like highlighting and creating images for bible verses just makes the app that much cooler. The streaks also really help with the motivation of at least analyzing the Bible verse of the day. I love how with the newest update you can have prayer requests. Oh and you can have things be played for you Incase you would like to multi task or just understand better with having it read to you. Another thing that I love is that you can add friends and do plans together which I have yet to do. I hope this review was helpful and motivated you to get the app. God bless 💕

My Morning Joy

Every morning, as soon as I wake up, I go to the Bible App. Before even a cup of tea, I read the verse of the day, Then I do my Bible Studies. They have taught me so many awesome, rich truths about God’s Word! I recall one (of the hundreds I’ve completed) which taught me about the “hard sayings in the Bible”. It went deep into controversial Scriptures such as, “can you lose your Salvation?” and “can women be preachers?”. Another benefit is, that I’ve gained hundreds of new Christian friends, some, I now actually have close, personal relationships with! Even though they may live on opposite coasts, they are now precious friends! I’ve had the Bible App over four years now and I must say it’s the greatest App, bar none! If you just try it, you’ll be hooked on spending time with Jesus and you’ll gain Christian friends! How? Just send “friend requests” to people you know, or if you’re like me, I only had one friend who was on the Bible App so I started sending out friend requests to people from all over the world. Not one single request was denied! You’re with your Brothers-and-Sisters-in-Christ, so you’ll never feel rejected! As you accept requests to do Bible Studies from your new friends, you’ll read responses that really speak to your heart. If these responses come from people you aren’t friends with yet, send them friend requests! The more people you “friend” the more you’ll grow from others’ insights! This is THE MOST VALUABLE APP you’ll ever have!

DJfromDCVersion: 10.18
Love it (because that is what it’s about!)

One of the best features of this app is the ability to choose which version or translation of the Bible you which to read from - and when comparing them, you realize that there is not one single correct version, and so any attempt to indoctrinate children in public schools with one particular sects version is, by definition, using the power of the State to choose one particular version, one particular denomination, and in fact one particular interpretation of one denomination’s version as the correct version, and that all other versions thus must be incorrect, and all other religions & their teachings are illegitimate. The first Amendment exists to ensure that all denominations and even that all religions may peacefully coexist, because this country was birthed out of a concept created when those who were fleeing the Christian persecution of other Christian denominations in England & Europe, and it was less than 100yeara ago there was still virulent and open antisemitism and anti-catholic sentiment in this country, and 200 years ago anti-catholic riots in several different cities. I love this app, because it reminds us that Christ’s true message was about loving one another, and that the only way to the Father was by following him - he didn’t push, shove, coerce, or force anyone into it- he showed love & compassion, and he invited people to follow him. As Christians we invite people to follow him by living his example, not by beating anyone with it.

Bible App or Social Media App

This application was perfect without all the social media elements that are being pushed in our face. Right now, I can read verse of the day without seeing the distracting video alongside it. Reading scriptures, plans and verse of the day is more than enough. Relax with all this social media stuff please.

Update causes distraction from the text

Used to be very good but now they added more than the holy scripture. The new update added distracting videos beside the daily verse. I may have to delete and change apps. The app should keep the reading and videos separate. The videos beside the holy text not only distract from the holy word but takes away from it. On another level, the unwanted videos take up unnecessary data when there’s no wifi.

You version bible

If I could rate this app a zero, I would because it sucks in a lot of ways. The developers won’t accept any suggestions as to improve the app. The developers don’t seem to know what they are doing as far as debugging their own software and can’t seem to correct the issues presented to them from their users. Instead they just tell you that they don’t see the same problem you do and that they can’t or won’t help you. A simple feature like they have in their app called streaks does not have the option to turn it off, if you don’t like it; which is not good if it’s something that is bothersome for a user. Why can’t we have the option not to use it? I asked for this to be implemented a couple of times, and was ignored totally. Not even a single reply. I won’t use this app again and will not recommend it to others.

Decent app, poor leadership.

"Celebrating Black history month!" Should not be an article from a Bible app. Do not get me wrong, I'm not disagreeing with the article, or the purpose of it, but I am disagreeing with it within the context of a Bible app, and from an exclusivity perspective. It clearly goes against scripture to elevate one race over another, so it is reprehensible for a Bible app to do this very thing. There are other wonderful Bible apps, honestly I'd even recommend going entirely paper. Sad to see a Bible app rejecting fundamental scriptural mandates.
