  • Not as good as before

    I’m glad to see Mantis back as an app however I am having difficulty tapping open a verse which exposes my selected references material and comparisons Bibles. I usually hit a word that then wants to be highlighted and then tap, tap, tap trying to open the verse. Same for trying to close. Hopefully this will be addressed in a new fix! I did find however that if I increase the font size it helps with the tapping in order to open and close a verse! Other than that I love the app and use it often!

  • Updated!

    I have used this app for years. It has become an invaluable resource. Sadly, it's been so long since the developer has updated it that it no longer works with the most current version of IOS. Obviously, the developer has given up on it. I'm sorry to see it go.

    UPDATE - They finally updated and it's working great!

  • Disappointment!

    Credit should be given to Mantis for not abandoning its customers when iOS 11 proved incompatible with their original bible app. (But it also needs to be said that I spent many more dollars, collectively, on Mantis bible versions and multiple commentaries than I ever invested in any other iOS app!) Unfortunately, the newly updated product looks primitive when compared to the the beautifully efficient study bible being replaced. Plus it offers fewer display options. Finally, restoring all of my past purchases remains, as with past updates, troublesome.

  • Hopeful, but frustrated

    A long time user of Mantis Bible Study, I had upgraded to iOS 11 only to discover that Mantis 4 no longer worked. So I was glad to see that Mantis X has finally been released, as I use the app daily and have invested lots of time in it.

    However this 10.1.5 release feels still a bit green. Scrolling is missing, as well as numerous other features of the previous app. Bookmarks (now markers) behave very differently - I’d like the option to see only those markers in a selected folder as before, not all markers all the time, although the ability to see all markers in all folders is a good new feature. The conversion of old bookmarks creates markers with strange titles instead of the complete reference.

    In short, glad to see the app is now available, a bit frustrated with the ‘conversion experience’ (sic), and hoping to see point releases in the very near future to fix bugs and add missing features!

  • Amazing

    It's so cool to tap your way through God's word and learn so much more in so much less time. The addons are pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for. Can't wait for iPhone 5 support!

    If you have any issues, simply email support and they get back you right away!! Looking forward to this update!!!

  • The Best!

    I almost can’t imagine a world without my mantis Bible research program. I have used mantis for many years and appreciate all of its useful original language helps. Now that mantis is also available for my Macintosh computer I’m as excited as I could be. This is the best there is!!!
  • Please update to IOS 11

    I have used this app for years in sermon preparation. It has been a huge blessing and is an excellent user friendly app. I am missing it so much ever since I updated my phone. Please update this app soon. Praying you are able to. Thank you
  • No problems, Great App!

    UPDATE: Mantis WAS one of the finest bible study apps out there, and I have spent what I consider a lot of money on it and love it BUT the company seems to have “given up the ghost” since they no longer do updates on the app. I pray they someone will get busy and do what is necessary to make the app work with IOS 11. I can still use the app on my older devices and still think of it as being worthy of five stars, but when I think of all the money I have spent on this app it makes my heart ache.

    THE FOLLOWING WAS MY ORIGINAL FIVE STAR REVIEW:
    This bible system can do anything you can afford. I currently have five versions of the bible and five commentaries. I use the app every day. It is my greatest asset for bible study.

  • Please update this app

    Each time my iphone updates I notice that this app hasn't had an update since 2013. Please update the features so that I don't lose my capability to use this app. Everytime I try to save through iCloud or other external saving method, I lose information in my notes so I stopped saving a lot of things now. But this is the only app I use because other apps don't have all types of Bible versions, free or for purchase.

  • Note for Developer

    Please, please update this app for the latest iOS. I, like others I'm sure, have years of highlighting and notes invested in this app (not to mention the most money I ever spent on an app). Bible study is so important that I'd be so sad to lose all of what I accomplished.

    Overall the app itself has great functionality and a nice user interface. I'd give it 5 stars if it were kept up to date.
