Very Powerful

### 3/5 — App does not seem to be working

*2026-01-26, version 5.2*

I was enjoying the program greatly up until yesterday. I had stopped halfway through “Bill’s Story”. When I went back to it, the app dropped me out. This happened several times. Before you ask, yes I did pay the $14.99 to get access to all of the chapters.

*2024-07-10, version 4.7*

I enjoyed the Joe & Charlie Big Book 12step tapes when I was newer in AA. I now have them on my phone. I’ve been sober 37 yrs this Nov. 17th.. Sometimes, I can attend a meeting of mostly old timers that uses the Joe & Charlie tapes. After they listen to part of the chapter they talk about it. It’s a great meeting. Joe and Charlie were good AA and good people.
