So glad to know the app is working well for you. Feel free to get in touch anytime regarding bugs or suggestions! ### 5/5 — Overall experience *2020-12-25* Great app. Very beneficial when needing quick information. Only issue is I can’t log in to the page which has the parkers, movers, etc. It keeps telling me the email is not valid, so I’m not sure if I need my department email or personal email is fine. But overall, I enjoy using this app. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! The page you're referring to is a 3rd party website not affiliated with the app. The app just links to that site for convenience. However, the webmaster of that site should be able to help you with any account issue! Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ### 5/5 — The Best *2020-12-16* This app is superior to Cop App and the FOP app. It's easy to navigate and has many options that can assist you. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Glad to know it's more useful than certain other apps xD The goal is for this app to be a "one stop shop" for officers. Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ### 5/5 — Great App *2020-12-16* Definitely useful and full of info. The calendar is great and very organized, better than the “other guy’s app”. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Glad to know it's more useful than certain other apps xD The goal is for this app to be a "one stop shop" for officers. Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ### 5/5 — Great CPD application *2020-07-07* The features available in this app is definitely a huge improvement from the FOP app. I’ve used it primarily for the calendar features showing day off groups, court keys and dates you aren’t keeping tabs on. Just for everyday use, it’s been useful for quick ucr codes or directories if you don’t want to lug around fop/rainbow books. Has everything you’d need for a quick reference. The search feature puts everything within reach without having to dig through paperwork. I would definitely recommend this app for anyone on the job especially the newer officers. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Glad you're making use of all the app's features. Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ### 5/5 — Great App* *2020-07-03, version 1.1.2* Great resource for officers, conveniently on both IOS and Android. Would recommend to have it as it has lots of info and free to download! ### 5/5 — Phenomenal Job *2020-06-25* This is an extremely convenient and practical app. Great app to reference quickly. Glad it works offline. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t access *2024-07-29* I filled the form to have my department added to the app so I can login and also emailed the support but I haven’t gotten a response back since April. ### 1/5 — Mass data collection *2024-06-08, version 4.1.24* Used app one day and checked privacy report in settings, against my permission app contacted sent my data to bunch of Google websites and Amazon. Data not collected is a lie. If you value privacy on your own device do not use. If you use dept phone then app might be of some use. Data not collected is a lie. ### 2/5 — Need Access *2024-04-21* I have emailed the developers two times to have access to the app but I have not gotten any response back in the last 10 days. I hope to resolve this issue asap ### 4/5 — Update *2025-03-24* Needs to be updated with latest salary increase ### 4/5 — Good app *2022-06-28* Is there an email to contact developer. Having problem logging in **Developer response:** Hello, you can contact the developer at bluebibleapp@gmail.com. If you're having trouble logging in, please try a password reset from the app login screen. ### 4/5 — Overtime *2021-01-20* Be able to add in comp time even for holidays too **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! The holiday time/pay option has been implemented in version 2.1.1. Also, an update is forthcoming which will take into account holiday time and pay for users working 10 and 12 hour shifts. It should be updated in the next few days! ### 4/5 — Solid app *2021-01-09* This is by far the best app out there for this market. The only things I think need to be done is the ability to add a starting balance for compensatory time. I have quite a few hours on the books and can’t add them. Also the ability to use BFDs, P-Days and V-Days. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for the feedback! You can now add a starting comp time balance in the app. BFDs, P-Days, etc will be coming very soon! Glad you like the app! ### 4/5 — Great work tool! *2020-07-05* This is super handy for new and veteran officers. The ability to see your days off without waiting for a web browser to load is awesome! I love the calendar note taking function and the GOs at your finger tips. Easy access to numbers for Notifications is a huge plus! **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Feel free to get in touch anytime with any suggestions or comments! ### 5/5 — App support/ add option *2026-07-28* Please add the options to edit your post and comments. Post pictures, link previews. ### 5/5 — Blue Tutor Study Guide *2026-02-26* This is an honest review. I opted to purchase the blue tutor study material for the 2026 Detective Exam - Part 1. As someone who only used this material and NO other study aids, I am extremely pleased with my test performance. I also didn’t devote a ton of time to it. Life. I can only imagine what my score would be if I actually studied consistently. This was a great tool to prepare for the exam. I’ll be anxiously waiting to purchase Part 2! ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Handy App *2026-01-20* One of the most useful resources I’ve come across. All within a tap or two on the screen. It’s very convenient, great OT tracking, and I like the access to the community when I or other officers need help. ### 5/5 — Blue Bible *2025-12-19, version 5.0.2* Great app helps me a lot on the field ### 5/5 — Greatest app ever. *2024-04-23* A very helpful app for a PPO just coming onto the department. ### 5/5 — Best App *2022-01-03* Great app for all your needs, it's your one stop shop for a well designed guide. I would recommend this app to all those in the field. ### 5/5 — Blue bible *2021-07-01, version 3.0.3* This is great. Very helpful. ### 5/5 — If you’re a Chicago cop download this app *2021-05-29* This is your rainbow book and fop book combined with extra features. The developer is always open new ideas and features. With great updates that come out every month that just make the app more useful. **Developer response:** Thanks Kevin, I'm so glad you like the app, and thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I look forward to continuing to put out regular updates with more useful features, and helpful feedback from users like you helps make that possible! ### 5/5 — Everything at ur fingertips!! *2021-02-17* This app is awesome! A coworker told me about it and I will never go back to using the book again! Everything that I need and more is available! THANKS BROCK! **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! I'm so glad you like it. I'm always looking to improve the app, so if you think of any ways that it could be better, please get in touch! Thanks, Brock ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2021-02-14* Great tool for cpd officers to have! Has just about everything u need! Keep the updates coming! Love the calendar aspect of it. Only bug I found so far is that sometimes the Notes we add in the calendar don't appear on the dates. If I type in the note again, then it shows the 2 notes. (The original one put in and then the new one I add) Edit: Note bug is still present on the latest version :/ **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! I've been unable to reproduce this bug on my end... In any case, I completely redid the coding for the notes feature in v2.1.1 in the hope that the bug would be eliminated and I'm very sorry to hear it hasn't been! Would you kindly send an email to bluebibleapp@gmail.com with your version of iOS and any other details you can provide that might help me reproduce the problem on my end? I'd like to get this fixed!
