Looks horrible on iPhone X
This used to be my favourite bible app, but it has no support for the iPhone X screen and is very buggy in iOS 12 even after the so called “iOS 12 update” .. Considering how much I spent on the app buying all the extra translations and unlocking every feature it offers, I was hoping for better and faster update service. Sad to see the developer giving up on what used to be the best bible app in the App Store.

Trouble with advertised features.
I can not copy and share to Facebook or text other people. I can even get to customer service. I would not buy the app.
No Family Sharing
I paid $22+ and now I find it is not able to be shared with my wife via Family Sharing. DO NOT BUY !!!
Excellent & Wow! (11/11/15 update)
Post-Nov. 11, 2015 update:
fantastic! Really. Way to go, whoever was responsible. All nice touches.
Earlier review (updated a little):
Very good app, though every now and then some strange freeze-up, only fixable by deleting and re-downloading. (Maybe turning phone off/on woulda fixed it. Dunno.) - Switching how I was holding iPhone - to "landscape" orientation, then back to "portrait" position - cleared it up, last time. Simple.
But, overall, great app.
(I'm on an iPhone 5, runnin' iOS 8.1.3, I think it is - held off on iOS 8.2 and 8.3 upgrades.)

Love this Bible... But
This has been my "go to" Bible on both the iPad and my iPhone for years and it has rarely let me down. But I noticed a glitch with the NLT in that the verses won't highlight, so I went to the website. That's when I noticed that the latest version is 5.4 and my app is still at 5.1.6. on both devices. Further, the website is totally unresponsive except for showing my notes. What's going on?

Wonderful Bible App
by: Dr. D. Thompson - April 12, 2012
This is a wonderful app and well worth the money. I am disappointed in the loss of the NIV 1984 version of the Bible. Please get this version back as soon as possible. Once in place, this is a five-star product again.

Having some trouble
I LOVE this and use it every day but I am having trouble with the daily readings which require Internet. I always get the message that I am not connected to the internet but I am through both wifi and cellular. This feature has always worked for me before so I am confused why it doesn't work now. Is this a bug that needs fixing? Please help!

Everyone should have this app.
I have never submitted a review of any product or app before, however feel compelled to do so with this app. This app has been life-changing for me. To have always at my side, the complete bible in a very convenient and readily accessible form on my iPhone, without having to carry around the actual book itself, has dramatically simplified my daily bible study. The ability to quickly and effortlessly change from one version to the next and to quickly jump to referenced passages, has helped me to achieve a deeper understanding of the scriptures, even ones that had been previously confusing. The ability to easily and conveniently bookmark passages and take notes with the note taking feature, has allowed me to be more organized in my study efforts. This app is so easy to use, and of course always keeps your place for you, enabling you to pick up and start reading right where you left off, even if you have only a few minutes here or there throughout the day to read it. I have never experienced a failure in the app to work properly, and OS upgrades and even transfers to new iPhones have taken place flawlessly, even my notes and bookmarks have always been preserved and maintained. This app has been so helpful in my efforts to read, study and understand the bible, that I wish everyone could also have it and likewise benefit from it. I have given all of my family members this app as a gift, in hopes that it can do for them what it has done for me. Hopefully, it can do the same for you. God bless!

Best Bible App
I have played with a few other Bible apps but have not found one that has all the translations I want as well as languages in one. And now with the iPad and being able to see two Bibles side by side it is amazing!
