I would like to be finished by September. It’s not telling me how much I need to read daily. It’s just a reader with no timeline. Developer need to sign in and fix it. ### 4/5 — Great motivator *2023-02-18, version 1.4* I love how simple this app is! It’s very intuitive. I wish it did something to track progress, like keeping track of how many days in a row you’ve read, or telling you what percentage of the BOM you’ve read so far. But overall fantastic! ### 3/5 — Suggestions *2022-07-18, version 1.4* I wish there was an audio option to listen to the information. I also wish it included the chapter headings. I’ll probably listen on the official LDS app, but use this app to keep track of where I’m at and my goals. Seems sort of silly, but whatever. ### 5/5 — Love! *2022-01-19, version 1.4* I really love this app. My goal for 2022 was the read the Book of Mormon cover to cover at least twice, and this app makes it SO easy to do that. Pick an end date and the app will do the calculating for you. I really love it. 5 stars! 🌟 ### 5/5 — Best ever for keeping mind focused *2021-12-23, version 1.4* Enjoying this app! Helps me from all the distractions around me. ### 5/5 — Book of Mormon and D.C. *2021-06-15, version 1.4* Best books to read ### 5/5 — Love this! *2021-04-30, version 1.4* With the Come Follow Me program I do daily, this helps me reach my yearly Book of Mormon studying goals also. This is so easy to use. THANK YOU so much for this Awesome app! I absolutely love it!!!! ### 3/5 — Not working correctly *2021-01-21, version 1.4* Sometime the reading skips way ahead. Other times there are no written words but there are spoken words. ### 5/5 — Thank you so much! *2020-12-12, version 1.4* I love your scripture reading apps! Thank you for making them free. Thank you for making them auto-adjusting. Thank you for linking them to the gospel library app. When I finished the Book of Mormon this year I was a little sad to not have your app’s help for my D&C reading schedule - but I just looked in the App Store and you’ve done apps for all the standard works! Thank you so much. 🧡 ### 5/5 — Mormon reader *2020-12-06, version 1.4* I love this app, it allows to be actively reading the scriptures even if I am not sitting in front of a book! ### 5/5 — Scriptures are Great! *2020-09-27, version 1.4* I use my scriptures to both study the Scriptures and to listen to them whenever I can listen to them for further understanding. I enjoy them and especially the Scriptures App. ### 5/5 — Book of Mormon app *2020-07-27, version 1.4* I really love theThe convenience and it has bookmarks from the time I start a church up until this day so I really think it’s a great app! ### 5/5 — Perfect for family study *2020-05-24, version 1.4* We wanted to set a goal to read the Book of Mormon by Christmas Eve as a family. This is the perfect app for us as it sets our daily verses so we can get together to read and not figure where we left off or how far we need to go. It’s made our study so much easier. Thanks! ### 5/5 — This is just what I needed!!! *2020-04-22, version 1.4* Thank you so much. Simple, easy, adjusts daily reading to help reach the goal. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Needless App *2025-01-03, version 1.4* Scripture reading goals are reading the Word like it’s a board game. Instead, why not just read one chapter a day — linger with it, let it drip over the heart like molasses, savor, meditate, talk with God, listen, feel. ### 1/5 — What am I doing wrong? *2021-12-23, version 1.4* I must be doing something wrong because no matter what I read it says I need to read 1st Nephi chapter 1 ### 1/5 — no option to turn off *2020-05-24, version 1.4* I really wish that this app had an option to turn off the calendar reminder. I simply just want an app to read the Scriptures. I know that is not the goal of this app. However I wish he would give that as a simple option. ### 1/5 — Butt poop *2020-04-28, version 1.4* 💩 ### 1/5 — Not good *2018-11-13, version 1.1* It doesn’t work ### 2/5 — I wish the App could be paired with another device *2024-02-08, version 1.4* I have the App on my iPad and my phone. I read from both devices and wish they could be paired so I wouldn’t have to change the bookmark on one manually. ### 2/5 — Scripture *2020-02-28, version 1.4* Love it ### 2/5 — Great, but missing most of Alma *2019-01-02, version 1.1* I like the idea of this app, but for about a month I couldn’t bookmark anything between Alma 22 and Hellman. I was trying to finish a Book of Mormon challenge, but had to ditch this app for something else. If they could fix this glitch I would gladly hop on board again. ### 2/5 — Mormon Reader *2018-12-03, version 1.1* It’s difficult to mark where you stop if you listen through Gospel Library. I don’t have a measure of where I am and how much I need to read if I only read 6 days a week of if I don’t stop at the marker. Just a graph or “you have ____ verses to the finish”. ### 2/5 — Good Idea, has issues *2018-11-11, version 1.1* It’s not the most intuitive interface (took me a while to realize I had to hit ‘Done’ in two places for it to keep my bookmark. But the biggest problem is when I’m trying to mark my place, it only goes to chapter 22 (in the Placemark section), no matter how many chapters are in that book. It actually has all the chapters, but you just can’t mark them. So after I’ve made it through chapter 22 on a book, I have to guess how many chapters I have to read a day for the rest of the book. (I’m on an iPhone X, with the latest update). I loved the simplicity of the app Circle BOM, but that doesn’t work with Apples newest update. So I’ve been struggling with this one and trying to make it work. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Track your reading progress *2024-01-18, version 1.4* This book helps me a lot as I tried to finish it this year. I wanted to bring about its blessings that I got regarding reading this in my life. The book of Mormon is the same as the bible. It is not an lds book. It’s god’s warning to its people. Jesus Christ never stops wanting us to be safe, so he always reveals his secret to his servant the prophet. Prophet are seers and revelators, they are Gods hands in our life. If we follow his prophet we will be safe. ### 5/5 — Great *2024-01-15* We read these together every day. Would be nice to have the head titles though 😘😘 ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-08-08, version 1.4* It doesnt use a lot of space, it sends reminders and it can work offline. Its very user friendly. ### 5/5 — switching *2023-06-19, version 1.4* I have Gospel library open when I start reading; even so I can switch to Gospel Library from Mormon Reader, if iwant to listen to audio of the Book of Mormon. I in Gospel Library I can switch back to Mormon reader an Bookmark my end spot so when I received the reminder “It is time to read I know where I left off. Good feature. ### 5/5 — Love the app, please do an Andrew version *2023-01-22, version 1.4* I use the app everyday and have recommended it to many but it is not available on androids. Please work on that!! Thanks ### 5/5 — Accomplished My Goal *2023-01-01, version 1.4* I accomplished my reading goal of finishing the Book of Mormon before the end of 2022. I enjoy the simplicity of the text (no extra footnotes to distract etc). ### 5/5 — Please get this *2022-11-22, version 1.4* I really Like this because it lets you put bookmarks. And is really easy to read. It shows what Nephi you are on, what verse you are on,etc. you can underline and highlight sentences. ### 5/5 — I love this app! *2022-10-18, version 1.4* It keeps me on track to accomplish my reading goals. Love it! It’s always there to remind me. ### 5/5 — Easy beautiful *2022-05-31, version 1.4* An easy beautiful way to read scriptures on a set schedule . The book mark helps keep you on track ### 5/5 — Jesus saves *2022-04-30, version 1.4* I recently found Jesus and My life has done a 180 degree turn around,this book is awesome. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
