Bible King James Version with Apocrypha
The King James Version (KJV), commonly known as the Authorized Version (AV) or King James Bible (KJB), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England begun in 1604 and completed in 1611. First printed by the King's Printer Robert Barker, this was the third translation into English to be approved by the English Church authorities.
James gave the translators instructions intended to guarantee that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology and reflect the episcopal structure of the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. The translation was done by 47 scholars, all of whom were members of the Church of England. In common with most other translations of the period, the New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew text, while the Apocrypha were translated from the Greek and Latin.
The Biblical apocrypha (from the Greek word aπόκρυφος, apókruphos, meaning "hidden") denotes the collection of ancient books found, in some editions of the Bible, in a separate section between the Old and New Testaments or as an appendix after the New Testament. Although the term apocrypha had been in use since the 5th century, it was in Luther's Bible of 1534 that the Apocrypha was first published as a separate intertestamental section. Luther was making a polemical point about the canonicity of these books. As an authority for this division, he cited St. Jerome, who in the early 5th century distinguished the Hebrew and Greek Old Testaments, stating that books not found in the Hebrew were not received as canonical. Although his statement was controversial in his day, Jerome was later titled a Doctor of the Church and his authority was also cited in the Anglican statement in 1571 of the Thirty-Nine Articles.
King James Version
The English-language King James Version (KJV) of 1611 followed the lead of the Luther Bible in using an inter-testamental section labelled "Books called Apocrypha", or just "Apocrypha" at the running page header. The KJV followed the Geneva Bible of 1560 almost exactly (variations are marked below). The section contains the following:
1 Esdras (Vulgate 3 Esdras)
2 Esdras (Vulgate 4 Esdras)
Tobit
Judith ("Judeth" in Geneva)
Rest of Esther (Vulgate Esther 10:4-16:24)
Wisdom
Ecclesiasticus (also known as Sirach)
Baruch and the Epistle of Jeremy ("Jeremiah" in Geneva) (all part of Vulgate Baruch)
Song of the Three Children (Vulgate Daniel 3:24-90)
Story of Susanna (Vulgate Daniel 13)
The Idol Bel and the Dragon (Vulgate Daniel 14)
Prayer of Manasses (follows 2 Chronicles in Geneva)
1 Maccabees
2 Maccabees
Included in this list are those books of the Clementine Vulgate that were not in Luther's canon. These are the books most frequently referred to by the casual appellation "the Apocrypha". These same books are also listed in Article VI of the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England. Despite being placed in the Apocrypha, in the table of lessons at the front of some printings of the King James Bible, these books are included under the Old Testament.

KJV Bible with Apocrypha. KJVA Positive Reviews
Great app makes you want to readI’ve had the same bible app for a few yrs. I’m glad I found this one . It’s like reading a bible and not some tiny words on a screen. My eyes are fine and they’re young eyes but it’s annoying and boring when it feels like I’m reading SOPs for work or something. This app makes me want to read. I usually read at night when I’m already relaxed and sleepy so seeing the big words help me to stay focused and awoke. I don’t want reading my bible to feel like a chore when I’m forcing myself to read those small letters. I even downloaded the other app that goes with this one. I love it!.Version: 5.0
It’s Okay ButThis app is pretty OK; containing new and Old Testament books, along with the apocrypha (which has history of the first Hanukkah and more.) The only books that I can think to add are the books of Enoch and Jashar. The mobility in this app is kinda annoying! When you touch the header while viewing a chapter nothing happens. Regretfully one must repetitively return to the “table of contents” in order to choose the book, chapter and verse they want to read. It would be a major quality of life upgrade if to reach the table of contents all we had to do was touch the header / chapter, listed at the top of each page. Finally the search engine is fair enough but wants compared to its counterparts. There is no option to toggle between searching for “exact phrases only” and the broader “search all” which draws verses containing some or all of the words entered in search bar. This help when a person knows the words but can’t recall book name, chapter or verse number. The name of God was covered in many English manuscripts and replaced with the words “The LORD” copies of book versions would be accurate to depict this, but a publishers note inclining towards that truth would be graceful and notable with honorableness to the saints and scholars alike..Version: 5.1
Great ad-free appThis app is intuitively simple to use. It’s only weakness is the audio narration which is done by an auto-tuned voice. That works just fine for the refrain of a song, but in this setting, it takes some getting used to. I do like that you can change the voice in the settings to be less annoying and more to your liking. You can designate male or female, the type of English accent, and the cadence of delivery. I didn’t buy this app for the narration, so that weak spot doesn’t impact my rating. Note: This rating will, however, diminish if this app goes the way of Oleg’s “Jerusalem Bible” app, which runs banner ads along the bottom flanked by a “no ads” button mocking you at top of every page. Now that ads are running across the bottom of every page, I am diminishing the rating by 1 star (but not 2 as intended). Unlike the NJB app, an annoying (non-functioning) no ads” link doesn’t appear at the top of every page. I’ll change all of this when the option to purchase a “no-ads” version for $1.99 or $2.99 finally shows up. I don’t expect Oleg to do all this for nothing..Version: 5.1
Very Nice App!!I love how easy it is to navigate. It’s very user-friendly. The interface and the layout is very clean. I love its cool features including the highlighting, note-taking, font style, option for audio, plus many more! And also most importantly, it contains the apocrypha in addition to the regularly included books in the King James Versions. However, I am just a wee-bit disappointed with the content. I went straightway looking for the book of Jasher only to find that it was not included. 😱 I hope that it can be added in an update in the near future! Overall though, love the app! Great job!.Version: 4.5
AudioThe actual reading of the Bible is terrific. However, the audio portion has much to be desired. The monotone, female voice speak rapidly without emotion. I don’t remember just this moment if it continues to the next chap, which would be preferable. Because it’s emotionless & the cadence is off, it’s hard to understand. I’m trying to find my husband’s audioBible because it is read dramatically in different voices AND there are sound effects. I wish I had his. Hope your version is improved..Version: 5.0
I can now hear the Word as often as I like!Man is told to strive for truth. But the circumstances are as though we must through darkly colored, smoked, or stained glass. In a world of darkness, I have learned to use the ears of my heart as my guide to knowing truth through the wisdom and understanding of His servants of old. I trust in the Same Living Power that spoke to Noe, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and all of this Power’s Prophets of Old! So, in these latter days, your labor and hard work putting this software together is greatly appreciated! As, I and all my house do consider the Word as often as we may in private or in company through hearing! Thank you! His blessings and mercy continue to come upon us all whether we have or lack His understanding and wisdom!.Version: 5.1
Does the jobOverall, I am happy with this app. It has the full Apocrypha and books like 1 and 2 Esdras are not missing. I would have liked to see them put the apocrypha where it belongs, between the old and new testaments. I would like all the written fonts to be the same size and uniform in the text. It would be nice if they had a better interface and it was a little easier to search when I’m going in between books and chapters. Overall, it’s a Bible with apocrypha and it does its job..Version: 5.1
TonyJ Aka ejayremixI really enjoy using this app. Being able to highlight text and use this application as a study tool is excellent ,but there's only one thing I wish they could improve. I wish they would make a PDF of instructions. Explaining all the features that you can do. For instance, being able to paste your favorite scripture to study for the day. And by adding an alarm clock to remind you when and what you wish to study for the day. But, over all I rate this app 5 stars..Version: 4.5
1611 bibleI really like this one it inspires you to read and for the most part it is like the book. I wish the wish the online used the British English and the Roman numerals and I love that I can read the other books (Apocrypha ).it would be nice to have larger print as well. Thank you for this gift. This a must , I can read the word where ever I go. Neato..Version: 5.1
Kjv with ApocryphaVery difficult to locate audio button to listen to bible being read to me. Also voice over is horrible and even studders throughout reading over and over. Mispronouncing many words as well. Difficult to navigate from one book to another. You have to go back to table of contents to move to another book . It we would better if you could navigate from the book you just listened to..Version: 5.0
Thorough And Easy to NavigateThis app has so many different options for enhancing your studies. From the scriptures that you can highlight to your order of importance to the built in concordance. I’m sure there’s other options that I still have not discovered yet..Version: 5.1
Great appGreat app, only hope they can find a way to refine the search feature, if I look for the word “wing”, The results will show verses with words containing the word “wing”such as knowing, sowing, bowing. When I really wanted verses that say the word “wing” only. Maybe have a quote feature to bring exact words..Version: 5.0
It’s a good bible has great information but I would like if it had with it a dramatic readYou can feel the word much better when the spirit of the read fits the feeling of the word it best for me I can sit and read my bible all the time so I have to listen to the reading while am at work or in the car.Version: 5.0
Missing pieces of versesI would’ve given the app 5 stars, but there are some verses that have pieces of them missing for example Wisdom of Solomon 14:20. Why leave off “as a man”at the end? There is another verse in the Apocrypha where a whole sentence is left off. I don’t remember where it is right now. The Cambridge University Press has the best hard copy of the KJV with Apocrypha. Just copy that version for this app..Version: 5.1
Put Some Blood On MeWhat can I say about this apple every is here everything is just right now please listen you guys need to at the book of jasher, the book of Enoch, the book of jubilees in this app so we can all have one line to Jesus please hear me and thank you please add I would pay for this be blessed.Version: 5.1
PerfectI love it , it is convenient and easy to understand . It has the highlights and the notes you can save with the click of a button . The only version that is correct and tells about my history ..Version: 5.1
Audio Feature ://Its works pretty fine, however the audio feature is not so good. sounds robotic ofc lol & it’s difficult to turn on the audio feature. the audio feature is located on the lower right… a play button. for those who need the help!! phenomenal app! 🩷🩷.Version: 5.1
ReviewGood app love everything but should allow copy and paste for when you would like to share the word with a family member for inspiration who doesn’t have the app.Version: 5.1
BugsU can’t adjust the speed of the speaker within the settings , the text within the settings itself is to bunched up together causing some of the other categories within to app not to work. You guys need to have a ad remover I will gladly pay for one plus it would benefit u guys as well.Version: 5.1
FunctionalityHi, To the creator(s) of this app; its great to have all the books in one app with scriptures un-tampered. I was first introduced to this app in the Google Play Store. Which is a far better UI experience then on iOS. The search function does not pull all scriptures even with one word search. When some results are presented it seems to have coded or random symbols in the mix of the scripture. When selecting a verse from search you cannot go back to the list that was presented during the first search. Maybe a drop down menu which present the books could be placed at the top of the display..Version: 5.1
Keeps crashing when I click notesCrashes when I click notes deleted app, reinstalled and still does it.Version: 5.1
Heaven sent!!I’ve been looking for an app that I could take with me, and listen to at work. I finally found it. I feel as though God has given me something to keep me at peace while at work..Version: 5.1
Thank you for your appIt’s nice to have options to view the excluded texts, and that you took the time to make it available. It puts a lot into perspective to fill the gaps more clearly.Version: 5.1
The Word of GodThe true word of God. Including the books between the Old and New Testament about the rest of the history of the ten “lost” tribes of Israel that were taken out of the original 1611 King James Authorization. Useful and convenient way to get into the Bible at the tap of a finger. Thankful for this app..Version: 5.0
Great Bible appThoroughly enjoy this app. It is very users- friendly. I wish there were more colors to use to specific topic being studied. Maybe this could be added but still a great app..Version: 5.1
Pleasant ChangeIt took a little to get use to this layout, but I definitely like it! I like some of the features on this app, but some of the pronunciations are a little problematic. That is the reason that I couldn’t give it a 5. Some of the readings sound too “non-human” like or computery..Version: 5.0
Love the reminders!Sometimes I need a little reminder to slow down, prayer alone is not efficient, but the word of God feeds our souls. If I go too long past my usual reading time without visiting the app a message pops up, I love it!.Version: 5.1
AudioThe app is great I enjoy reading the other books of the bible. However, the audio is very BAD. It’s a kind of robot voice which can very annoying. Beside this, it’s a great app and I suggest that everyone should download it. God bless and happy reading..Version: 5.0
Missing parts of the BibleThe additions to the book of Esther are missing. The 6th chapter in Baruch is missing. There are probably other things missing too... To bad there aren’t many other choices for iPhone users..Version: 5.0
BaruchI like this app so far but I notice it does not have Baruch ch 6. It stops at 5. Hopefully this can be updated. I haven’t noticed other books coming short, then again I am still learning. Please fix, thank you!.Version: 5.1
This is wonderful!Easy to use. Several features. I really like the highlight and bookmark feature. You can choose your word font and size. Carry a Bible anywhere you go. I can’t believe it’s FREE. I really enjoy it..Version: 5.1
PLEASE MAKE VERSION COMPATIBLE W MACLove the app been using with my congregation for along time It would really help us out a-lot if you are able to make version compatible with mac for our livestream services..Version: 5.1
MY OWN GENESISThis is just the beginning for me frfr I love the father bc I never had one. My ego is nothing but a little boy but my spirit is growing to be a man right now of my body had to become weak to understand this..Version: 5.1
Overall expI love the layout of this app I love the formate the options avail to highlight or take notes does not have any flaws 5 stars all the way.Version: 5.1
Jubilee Jasher & EnochAll other books of the Apocrypha seem to fit scripture, but those three books have fraudulent claims in them when you look into it, so do some research on them and prove my statement.Version: 5.0
Almost Perfect. Beautifully Simple.Wish they’d add the book of Enoch. Just now learning about the apocrypha and that was the one that made me want to read it originally. Looking forward to the rest..Version: 5.1

Not smoothGreat app but it would be nice if the screen wouldn’t jump when the narrator is reading each bible verse- it dazzles my eyes, it would be way better if the screen smoothly and slowly goes up as the narrator reads each verse. Thank you.Version: 5.1
So far so goodThe ability to choose and customize the audio and font is a plus!.Version: 5.1
KJV BibleI love this app. It is very easy to use. The bookmarks are very nice and they are color coordinated to highlight what you’ve read would highly recommend!.Version: 5.1

Enjoy this appJust wish a update to the interface and no ads.Version: 5.1
Glory Sanders Thompson❤️🙏🏾Having this KJV of the Holy Bible on my iPhone is more convenient than I could have ever imagined. Taking notes, book marks and highlighting the scriptures as I study, has really made my daily bread easy to SPIRITUALLY eat/receive and SPIRITUALLY SHARE..Version: 5.1
Good enough 12This app is good ,good enough to learn something different but when your phone gets cut off and you don’t have any more devices you will need a real Bible so yea this app is good enough.Version: 5.1
