### 5/5 — Perfeito!

*2026-09-05*

Deus abençoe as mãos daqueles que fizeram! Tem sido fonte de vida para mim, muito bom de usar com Apple Pencil

### 5/5 — Perfeito, design maravilhoso!!

*2026-08-28*

Por favor tragam a NVI e a almeida! cansei de procurar um app de bíblia, o seu é O MELHOR! mas infelizmente não tem NVI nem almeida. se tivesse com certeza compraria o app

**Developer response:** Agradecemos muito pelo seu feedback! Ficamos felizes que tenha gostado da interface da Bíblia Notebook. Este projeto foi desenvolvido para ser um diferencial em sua usabilidade.
Temos o desejo de incluir mais traduções da Bíblia em português no futuro, porém, no momento, ainda não contamos com as licenças necessárias para disponibilizá-las. Estamos trabalhando para obtê-las e, assim que conseguirmos, avisaremos diretamente no aplicativo para que todos possam aproveitar. 
Deus te abençoe!

### 3/5 — 성경버전

*2026-08-25*

개역개정으로는 없나요??? 
카톨릭에서 만든건가요??

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 소중한 의견 감사드립니다.

현재 앱에는 개신교 표준 성경인 개역(KRV)이 포함되어 있으며, 카톨릭 버전이 아닙니다. 카톨릭에서는 2005년부터 한국천주교주교회의의 새 번역 성경을 사용합니다.

현재 개역개정(NKRV)과 한국 가톨릭 성경에 대한 사용 권리가 확보되지 않았으나, 추가를 위해 관련 기관과 협의 중입니다. 가능한 한 빠르게 지원할 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다.

감사합니다.

### 5/5 — Simplesmente amei

*2026-08-25*

App fácil de uso e da para fazer muitas anotações, tirar dúvida e o valor é muito baixo por tudo que ele tem

### 5/5 — Eu amei!

*2026-08-21*

Foi indicação de uma amiga e realmente é um app excelente, apesar de ser pago é bem em conta por tudo que ela oferece!

### 5/5 — A melhor bíblia que existe

*2026-08-13*

Ela é simplesmente linda e fácil de entender e usar!

### 5/5 — No other option on IPAD!!!

*2026-08-12*

This is the best most functional, cheapest bible notebook option. The dev is actively updating and building. May god bless you all! Highly recommend!!

### 2/5 — Good if you have money

*2026-08-09*

This app is pretty good but you only can note like 8 times before you have to pay. I liked it because it was simple and not complicated, but you have to bay extra to be able to note which I think is one of the main points.

**Developer response:** "Thank you for your feedback and for trying the app! We understand that note limits can be frustrating, especially since annotation is such a core feature. We'd like to invite you to explore the app's free features too, like the daily devotional, daily quiz, and annual reading plan, which are available without any payment. God bless you!"

### 5/5 — Great App - But I Have Hopes For More

*2026-08-07*

I really enjoy the app, the sleek design, the kind of built in “habit-tracker” style streaks. And the daily quiz is rather edifying. 

The thing I want to see most, it’s like a place to write down prayers. It would be nice to have like a prayer journal or something, so everything’s all in one place. It’s actually a near perfect app otherwise. 

I am grateful for the NASB version… however, I would really like an NLT. I do understand though, that all takes licensing.

### 5/5 — App simplesmente diferenciado

*2026-08-06*

Diversas funcionalidades, cada detalhe pensado, design muito bem lapidado, muito além de uma uma simples Bíblia super recomendo.
