### 4/5 — Great app. Two problems.

*2026-08-25*

The app works great, but can improve. 
The WEB translation is missing lines in the psalms. Psalms 100 and 101 is where I noticed it. Please fix this.
The appeal to subscribe to support with donations feels manipulative. You have to completely shut down the app and open it again to skip it, and the options for donation amounts are steep. I believe some will just delete the app before discovering the workaround and miss out on the blessing of this app.  Also, if you offer lower tiers for donations, I’m sure more people would donate. 
Overall a very good app.

### 4/5 — Mr Simz

*2026-08-25*

A reading should match the the length of time selected, if I choose a 15 minute timer, I should also be provided with a 15 min reading content. Otherwise I love the app.

### 3/5 — A great concept but needs a little refinement

*2026-08-24*

I would have liked to try briefly for free and was a bit disappointed about the choice of versions for reading. The NIV would be my go to. Finding some functionality was hard e.g. adjusting how long the block lasts for if and when required seems a good idea but wasn’t easy and obvious. Overall though I am sure it soliloquy help me

### 3/5 — Cool

*2026-08-24*

You don’t really have to read the word you could just open the app and wait until the time runs out but it’s a great initiative

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-08-23*

Amazing app that helps with scroll addiction.

### 3/5 — Good potential , more room to grow

*2026-08-23*

App with a lot of potential, would need some extra features and more Bible translation for me to to subscribe

### 3/5 — Intentional blocking

*2026-08-23*

Hi, I love the idea of the app but I believe it could do better. Firstly, it only has a maximum of one hour App block, that leaves 23 hours for a social media addict to do what ever they want.
Secondly, the app can’t track if someone actually reads the Bible, someone can literally just open a page on the app for the duration the app block last and after that, all apps are open again.
Thirdly, I see that that app block only functions in the morning. While I understand most people tends to check their social media in the morning, there are other times of the day they can also check it. If the app only blocks it in the morning, then it leaves the remaining  23 hours for addicts to use the media.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-08-23*

Simple and easy to use! Helps you to read the bible every day

### 5/5 — Regaining hunger for God’s Word

*2026-08-23*

2 days in but I’m getting a hunger to read more and go deeper.

### 5/5 — Paris

*2026-08-23*

I can’t believe it I was wasting my time on social media , this app is so good , so now I read bible everyday and I am quitting social media .

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2026-08-22*

Pros: I spend time in the word first thing in the morning and not waking up via death scrolling social media. 
Cons: I’m not a fan of the translations that are offered—I’m an ESV or NIV gal and what’s offered isn’t my thing. I also wish that you could set up several “lock-outs” in a day and not just one. Example: 15 minutes in the morning, 10 minutes in the afternoon, and another 20 or so minutes at night. Those are typically the times I find myself on social media. I paid for the year long subscription at $60. If I had known about the translations available, I wouldn’t have purchased it. (They may have had those translations in the description, but I didn’t see them)

### 5/5 — A true blessing

*2026-08-22*

The app that was missing to create a Bible reading habit. As a suggestion add foreign language Bibles like Portuguese and Spanish

### 3/5 — Language Option Missing

*2026-08-22*

Overall cheap at 19ct/day for a whole year. I have no problem with the App beeing in english but the Bible Verses need an Language option. Remembering something u have read if it is not in ur nativ language is hard.

### 5/5 — So good!

*2026-08-22*

Excellent way to keep on track with getting a daily dose of the Living Word!

### 4/5 — Great concept but a little buggy

*2026-08-22*

Help get back my priorities but my installation won’t unblock the apps I have blocked after completing the set reading time and could not find a link to get help anywhere in the app. Please help as we love the idea of what this app is aiming to do

### 4/5 — Needs ESV and NKJV

*2026-08-22*

Such a good app but needs the ESV and NKJV versions available to read in.

### 5/5 — So helpful to be intentional with time spent with God

*2026-08-21*

This has been so helpful to be intentional in spending time in the Word before I use other apps

### 4/5 — Contact

*2026-08-21*

Hello I’d like to contact the developers directly but I do not see how .

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-21*

It is helping me a lot

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-08-24*

The page does not move after selecy the Apps. What's happening?

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2026-08-15*

I support the mission of this app and encourage the creators to keep working on it, but I have serious issues with the current execution. 
Trying to get the app to function properly with other apps is an issue. Customer support is none existent. And the cost for the service provided is poor.

### 1/5 — Can’t get past Blocking Apps

*2026-08-13, version 1.1.13*

I’d love to use this app, but it’s not letting me get past the option to select which apps to block until I read scripture so what’s the problem?????😡

### 1/5 — NOT WHAT IT CLAIMED

*2026-08-08, version 1.1.13*

The add said it would change my algorithm and I would scroll the Bible instead. That was misleading. And the timer starts when you open the app you don’t actually have to read anything open the app and the timer stays going even if you switch to a different app. I AM OUT $60 BECAUSE I TRUSTED A CHRISTIAN SITE! This is why people hate us Christians. SHAME on you!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work as Advertised

*2026-06-27*

First, it doesn’t turn the apps back on. 
Second, they give you the option to “donate”, but don’t give options on the amount. They only give annual and weekly, which is not a donation it is a subscription with a pretty bow on it. If you were to provide a way to donate however little or much we can as often as we want that is a donation. You should do it like Rocket money used to. 
Third, and finally, there are only 4 translations to choose from. None of which are common translations most people trust. I was under the impression that I could read my own Bible or maybe the regular Bible app, but even if not at least NIV, ESV, or NASB1995.

### 1/5 — Email

*2026-05-25*

I love it, however I chose the wrong payment and can’t afford it so the app keeps trying to charge me. I did not get a verification through my email and it says unsubscribe at anytime but doesn’t let me do so .. I love the app and that it makes me put God first in my morning but I need to unsubscribe…..days latter I still can’t unsubscribe and falsely advertised app support

### 1/5 — unable to cancel or delete account.

*2026-05-13*

🤷‍♀️

### 1/5 — Did not receive reminder that trial was ending

*2026-05-11*

I didn’t receive my reminder to keep or cancel subscription as promised and was charged I would like my money back please

### 1/5 — Subscription model = bad

*2026-05-10*

Need to pay $9.99 weekly to read the bible

### 1/5 — Cancel Subscription

*2026-04-30*

I decided to cancel immediately. No options for cancellation Had to contact Apple. Waiting on what can be done.

### 5/5 — Best decision

*2026-08-25*

I saw this while scrolling. I thought it was such a great idea so immediately downloaded it. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Helps me put God first

*2026-08-25*

There is nothing better than starting your day reading the word. Thanks to this app instead of brainrot on reels for hours in the morning I instead start with reading the masterpiece and I’ve been feeling so much better in the morning because of it.

### 5/5 — Building habits

*2026-08-25*

I initially got this app probably for the same reason as many have, to help break the hold that social media seems to have over me. I am only 4 days in but already I am finding that when I get my phone in the morning, I am opening up the Bible app and reading, not just to gain access to the apps I have restricted but more to find out more. The Daily reading really helps and then the option to read the chapters is fantastic. I am already finding that I a reading for longer than the time I had set. 
I am only just at the beginning of using this app but I will be continuing because it is holding me accountable and helping me to start my day the best possible way…. By reading God’s word. Bless you.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2026-08-25*

Amazing app! This is just my first day and I’m enjoying it. God bless the heart that was filled with such concern. 

One suggestion for the creators. If you give more content in daily reading (for those who want to read more), it would be great.

Thanks!!!

### 5/5 — Great initiative

*2026-08-25*

Fantastic way to start your day and be consistent with the word

### 5/5 — Starting your day right

Perfect for helping you break bad habits in the morning. It helps you focus on God first before anything else. I highly recommend

### 5/5 — Cool

### 5/5 — Life Changing

*2026-08-24*

This is such is an amazing idea. Reading the Bible everyday has brought about a change in my attitude, renewed my mind and broken addictions. I would totally recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Very helpful & good discipline

*2026-08-24*

Helps to focus on the Word of God before anything else! Involves discipline.
