Biblescope is becoming terrible lately
This app starts out as a streamlined and responsive app. The latest releases, however, have become slower and slower, to the point that it is unbearable. When one touches the screen to select a chaper or verse, it typically takes a few seconds to respond. Frequently, you are not sure whether it accepts the input and selects again. When it finally opens the book, it took another 5-8 sec to jump to the correct chapter and verse. I have used many Bible apps on both the iPhone and Palm, and none as slow as this app as it stands now. I am just about to going back to flip thru' the pages on a paper Bible, which is much faster and less confusing.

Flawless.
Has absolutely everything that you would need.
The best handheld bible ever made!
Worth every dime!! Reliable and alot of selections.
the best so far, but could use these changes.
hey, Love the bible software, I love not being online , etc. Good job. Please consider these things when updating.
1. Please see that the icon get's changed. it looks horrible. photographs are no good. hire a firm, your software is worth it. even if it's just the holy bible font you have.
2. Would love to be able to turn off of the burned paper look. i know, i know, it's a bible, and it's old. but it's on an iphone. you don't have to be victem to cliche's is all i'm saying. a cleaner look as an option would be great.
thanks for all the hard work, and hope my criticism is considered in future releases.

Excellent!!!
Biblescope is the cutting edge of Iphone Bible apps. With the addition of side-by-side note taking, this app is essential to any Iphone user who takes their Christian life seriously. So much time is wasted switching between notes and scripture but Biblescope solved that problem. This app is definitely a testament to Christian excellence. Thank you Kenny.

Most Valued App
BibleScope is the only app I use every day. It has many great features, but my favorite at this time is the tilt-to-scroll, which moves the text at an ideal speed. I have been reading more since that feature was added.
My rating moves closer to a 5 with each upgrade, especially when an annoying bug has been slayed.

Landscape! Still great, though.
The versions keep improving. Keep it up! It uses so many features, it's hard to keep up. Electronic Bibles sell for at least twice this amount, so it's well worth it.
Just one thing forces me to give it 4/5 stars... No landscape mode yet. I look forward to more updates. Love the multitude of color/font options! This is by far the best in the app store and doesn't use the web like others do.
-Update-
Made it 5/5 stars for adding landscape. Great work!
-Update-
Removed one star for changing the icon. Back to 5 if you change it back!

Awesome Bible Reader
By far the best Bible reader in the store, can't believe that there are still more features coming, just keeps getting better. Have to admit, I liked the old icon better but I'm not that fickle that I'd deduct a star. Keep up the good work!
Best so far..
OK. Here is what I like about this App.
1) Background Picture
It has a few of background options and I absolutely love one of them. Which is called an 'old paper' and this suits with the scripts so well it feels as if I'm reading the original script on an ancient paper. I hated other apps for not having any BG options. Just plain white BG which it drains the battery life rather quickly. So it would be awesome if there could be more of BG pictures. Please dev team! I need more BGs!!
2) Note
I can add notes to the specific verses or just write a note in general. And it seems that the length of note I can write is limitless. I know this because I've once wrote a few pages long of note. The UI for the note taking is simply AMAZING. You could pull up & pull down note screen and scroll through it while reading the verses. It happens on the same screen.
3) Feature packed
Just name any features that other Bible apps has, I bet you probably could find the same features in this app too.

Love it........ Thanks!!
I have to say that this is the first review that I've submitted. I purchased this application shortly after it's release. Not once have I regretted the money spent. The developer did a great job of putting it together. I love the red lettering. The fact that it holds my place when my reading is interrupted. I can increase the font size for my comfort. It has a search. That would be my only request. I would like to have a better verse search resource. However, it's not enough to reduce my 5 star rating.
Thank you.............. I absolutely love my app.
