Great content, but too many glitches
I the content is amazing, but the app has so many glitches. The app doesn’t recognize when you’ve completed a devotional. It also doesn’t archive any of the completed plans. I have a bunch just still downloaded that I’ve completed and it doesn’t recognize that it’s been completed.MissChelsie
Good Content, But App Needs Work
This app is my go-to for daily devotions during my long commute hours, and the content is SO good. Not only am I able to read through multiple plans at once, but they’re also easy to read and reflect on. Love the lock screens as well!
The biggest annoyance for me is that the “mark as read” buttons don’t stick, and I’m constantly going back in to mark it as read and keep my place. Because of this, I am also unable to move any of my completed plans (at least 4 of them) into the “completed” category which means that I have to scroll through all of the different plans to get to the plan I’m currently reading. I’m not sure if there’s a way to delete plans that I’ve downloaded, but even that would be helpful in this situation to reduce the large # of “pending” plans in my queue. Are there a solutions to these issues that I’m missing? That would greatly appreciated if there were!Show lessEWYC

Thanks for the feedback and for supporting She Reads Truth! We just fixed this problem in our latest update, make sure to download the latest version of the app. Please let us know if you have any other issues!Love SRT; app a little clunky
I love SRT, and appreciate the truly quality content they produce.
As for the app itself, it needs a bit of improvement! For some reason, when you mark a day as read, it just doesn’t stick. Everyday I have to go in and re-swipe a few days, which can make it confusing if you missed a day or two to find your place. It’s also just a little clunky when you’re done reading to get back to the reading plan main screen. It could just be improved.
But overall, the content is what matters most, and I’m glad to support the team. I’m sure they’re always looking to make things the best they can be!Show lessMe ☕
A little hard to navigate and failure to store progress.
First, I love SRT, so even the few bugs currently in the app would not turn me away from joining and being a part of any of the plans. They are enlightening, enriching, and help me to consider so much about who God is vs who I say God is based on my personalized filters. I still have the daily email devotionals sent straight to my email inbox, so I have a back up plan in store. The app I would say is not as intuitive as it could be. I often find myself just pressing icons/tabs hoping that what I want is found there. So maybe a way to make the icons communicate more effectively what content is coupled to them would be helpful. Also for several plans now, my progress continues to be undone, so even though I have completed plans the undoing of all that I have read keeps the plan under the currently reading section. So if the bug around keeping track of progress without undoing can be reconciled that would be great. You ladies are awesome and I love how you pour out so much and take great lengths to edify such a vast community of women!! You are a mighty throng!Show lessTiffyt504
The app hangs and all the plans are payable
This app hangs too much. Interface is weak. You can’t really study the word properly and all the plans are priced minimum £1.99 or over. Try Proverbs31 Ministry, they are generous in educating women. Their plans are free.DaisyLogan
Still cumbersome
The daily readings STILL take FOREVER to load and they don’t track my progress. The app is helpful for reading and devotions but it’s just too cumbersome. It is slow, not intuitive, and there are a lot of glitches. Needs a SERIOUS update. Too bad because I used to thoroughly enjoy this app. Not enough time is spent on the app itself.Show lesskaralyn*
Good app, but has bugs
I love the sleek design of the app, and how we can highlight parts of scripture, however, the notes function can be improved. When I delete a note, it would be helpful if whenever I clicked on a verse to create a new note, that the verses I had selected before are not automatically added again. It is frustrating, and seemingly un-fixable. For example, I created a note by accident using Romans 5:1 and 5:3, but now when I select Romans 5:1 to create a new note, Romans 5:3 is automatically added on, without my selecting it, and I can’t remove it. Please make it so that verses aren’t automatically added on from my previous notes. Also, this issue would not have arisen if it were possible to remove verses while creating a note. Thank you.Show lessStrangeRocks13
Bad update
I have put off publishing this review trying to get used to the new update, and I have really tried to love it for many months but it is not good. It makes the app a lot harder to use. It is harder to find my devotional so am in the middle of. Many times it crashes in the middle of using it. The old app used to load in a split second, often times this takes half a minute to what the old one would load in a second. The new update doesn’t seem to keep track of what I have already read in the devotional. I will tap mark to read and it will show as marked and then most times when I enter back into the app at a different time that marking will be gone. It is just really a bummer that an app I used to love now I don’t use as much because the functionality is very frustrating. I just wish the app returned to functionality and usability over now what seems to be an over emphasis on designShow lesstaytayh2014
The problems with the app distract from the studies
I think it’s a little silly to ask people to pay for the app, but make the exact same devotionals available online/in your email for free. However, I like being able to go through all the different plans I have downloaded on the app and read more than one at a time. I also like that I can go back to plans I’ve finished and reread specific devotionals. However, (and I know lots of people have said this!) I wish that they would make an option to favorite a specific day’s reading and devotional...that way if I’m looking for one I loved, but don’t remember which day it was from, I can go to my favorites and see them all. Also, this app drives me insane sometimes with its weird glitches...I was almost through a study and it suddenly no longer showed that I’d read the first 15 days of the study. It didn’t have them marked as completed anymore. And the “tap to share” doesn’t work. Ever. So as much as I love the devotionals, I think I’m either going to have to switch to using the website, or find a different app.Show lessMadelineF

We appreciate you sharing this feedback. The app is quite costly to update and maintain, so while most all of the features are free (including some older reading plans), there will be a small fee for the current community reading plans. In other words, the fee is not for the content itself but for the convenience of reading it within the feature-rich app -- and it's completely optional. We're grateful that you're a part of our community! -The She Reads Truth TeamApp has problems
She Reads Truth is a wonderful service, but the app has, for me, been going from bad to worse. It worked OK for me at first, although being an iPhone app it forces me to turn my iPad on its side. After finishing the Titus study, however, it began to prompt me to continue with the study after I had completed it. I found that several days were not marked as completed, and I marked them complete again, and it has continued to prompt to this day. Over the last week or so, however, it has failed to record any day from the current (Judges) study as complete. I tried logging off and back on, and now it will not let me even log on. The app is, as we say in the software business (I am a retired developer), “toast.” I will delete it and see if re-installing helps, but work is needed here. Perhaps it is incompatible with the iPad or iPad Pro?Show lessclearmiddle
