Want to love it...
I teach Biblical Hebrew to Seminary students. I would recommend this app if the BHS text worked. However the Hebrew text displays left to right, instead of right to left. In other words it is backwards. As it is, the BHS is useless.
Press On!
I've been looking for this app for a while now. Love the idea behind it. I've been playing with it for a few hours and while I enjoy it for what it is, it could be soooo much better! Some things that could be fixed/added.
Fix - When you rotate screen to a different orientation, your markups lose their position. (May be my device?)
Add - Ability to zoom in out on text.
Add - Scalable/movable Text Box for adding typed notes when your screen just isn't large enough to accept handwritten notes.
Add - Exporting options to other formats and platforms.
Add - Maybe some more colors like white (holiness) and a good purple (for royalty).
Add - Possible highlighter option.
And a final premium feature would be the ability to record your markup session and then present that to others with the ability to control speed, stop, pause, reverse, edit, etc - that would be awesome!
Great job creating this app. I really hope to see it improve with time. Press on!
Humbly,

Great! But...
This is a great app! But, it needs some serious updating. The only way I can undo something is by deleting the project and completely starting over. It needs to have an undo button and an eraser of some kind. Also, it would be beneficial if the text looked more readable and cleaner when it is pasted into the app.

Undo button added :)
Soooo good but missing one simple feature!
This is exactly what I was looking for, and it technically does what I wanted - to visually and colorfully mark up a passage while streaming to a bigger screen.
BUT, it's missing a very simple and fundamental feature - "undo". I desperately need to be able to clear all the lines, so I can start a new thought, or clear my last line if it's too messy or a mistake. Instead, all you can do is use the erase feature, which works but not great.
It would have 5 stars no problem if not for this absence.

Thanks for your kind words! I just added the undo feature! Enjoy! :)
Continue On!
Thank you so much for this! I also was inspired by the Look at the Book videos. Please continue to improve this!

Please check out the latest version, many improvements and patches. More to come!
Great idea, but not ready yet
I will be excited to re-review this app after it has been fixed up. Currently it is laggy, and you can only use ESV version.
Does Not Work! Please fix!!
This app does not work at all and provides none of the features advertised. The only thing it does is tell you "No Connection to Server" after searching for a text. Please update!
A start???
This app is a bit rough, but I'm hoping it is just a start for them. You have to look up scripture passages and make them a "project", and I am only able to get one chapter at a time into my projects.
Really annoying is that my projects disappear. If I mark up a passage, it is gone the next day.
There is a concept in the app for breaking up the paragraph breaks, but tap as I might, I can't get it to work.
BUT.. marking up my Bible while I study is incredibly fun and helpful. I hope these guys will finish the app. If they do, it would be worth it if it cost a few dollars.
