### 3/5 — Royal Kingdom ad locks up app

*2025-08-17*

I have been using Crosswalk app for several years with no major issues. NOW, the Royal Kingdom ad locks up the app. The only way I can get out of it is to delete the app and reinstall. That has worked in the past but today after reinstalling the app it won’t load. I switched internet connection and it still won’t load. Very disappointed. Guess I will have to find another devotionals app.

### 2/5 — Blue Links don’t work

*2025-02-24, version 2.3*

And when selecting specific devotional categories )e.g. Devotional for Spiritual Growth) the resulting page is blank blank

### 2/5 — Devotionals blacked out

*2024-09-05, version 2.3*

Devotionals won’t open up to listen to the scriptures

### 2/5 — Love the layout, hate the ads!

*2024-03-23, version 2.3*

I would be willing to pay for an ad free experience. Keep working on it. We’ll see about later possibilities.

### 3/5 — Search bar

*2023-09-11, version 2.3*

I would definitely give this app a solid 5 if I could access a search bar to locate specific subject matter.

### 3/5 — Crosswalk Devotionals

*2023-08-10*

Devotionals are often difficult to open. They keep going blank. They also have too many advertisements and blank areas. I miss the previous versions of Crosswalk which offered 2 Devotionals everyday.

### 2/5 — No search option

*2023-06-19*

I downloaded this app to search for a link to an article that I saw on a Facebook reel, and there is no option to search for that article. I was unable to copy the link on the reel or click on it to get there. I’m sure the app has some good features but I haven’t found them yet since I was unable to use it for the reason I downloaded it.

### 3/5 — Tithe

*2023-06-09, version 2.3*

I just wanted to make a tithe but can’t seem to.

### 3/5 — Needs update bug fix

*2023-06-06*

In reading articles it cuts off very often after page 1 and I cannot see the rest of the article. Please issue update to fix this bug.

### 3/5 — Confused

*2023-04-17, version 2.3*

I find that the process to fix your password confusing. 🤷‍♀️

### 2/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-03-13, version 2.3*

I have a iPhone 11  when I opened the app a advertisement shows up  and the app doesn’t seem to load up. I guess it only works for iPhone 13 or 14   To bad I always enjoyed this app

### 3/5 — First Time User

*2022-08-18*

Today I downloaded the Crosswalk App. I found the material both Biblical and uplifting. Unfortunately, many of the links appear broken. I clicked on an article and it took me to the home screen on my phone.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t Work Well

*2022-03-31*

I have to keep deleting the app and then download it again. Also, the articles & prayers sent to my inbox are incomplete, then you have to click on the “Continue Reading” link, but it does not link to the app and open it up.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t really work

*2022-03-17, version 2.3*

I’m not sure what’s going on but this app has too many non-responsive links and empty pages. It’s disappointing

### 2/5 — Good content but constantly crashes

*2022-01-08*

Good articles but difficult to read because app always crashes when trying to open links. Ads will pop up but app closes tried restarting phone and deleting and reinstalling app.

### 2/5 — Scbrucin01

*2022-01-03, version 2.3*

App is very user unfriendly 
Even after joining Plus and getting a reading plan you can never find it again

### 1/5 — Billing

*2025-09-29, version 2.3*

I was billed twice for the app and I never asked to be billed.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2025-07-03*

I’ve never seen an app as bad as this one. I’m a paying subscriber and I have to create a new password every single time I try to login. There is no way that I can find to bypass the pop up adds. I’ve reached out to the company several times with my concerns and they refuse to respond. What is really frustrating is that when I can get in I enjoy the content without the annoying ads. I only want what I pay for, why can’t this app get it right? I will not be renewing. Disappointed

### 1/5 — Not happy with it

*2024-08-08, version 2.3*

I wish I had never paid the money for the year subscription. This is nothing like I expected and will definitely not renew

### 1/5 — Ads everywhere!

*2024-06-03, version 2.3*

Ads everywhere!! I don’t need distractions when I study the word!! The link to the app was like click bait to download app, just to see more ads! I can’t get to the content so how do I rate ads? That’s why 1 star!

### 1/5 — Technology is lacking

*2024-03-03*

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app twice and it still doesn’t fix the functionality. The articles repeat the verbiage of the paragraphs multiple times and it won’t allow you to continue reading. There is no search function in the app. So disappointed and it was a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Crashes and ads

*2023-02-24, version 2.3*

I downloaded the app, ads immediately. Then I found an article I wanted to read and it kept crashing and closing so I uninstalled. Too bad.

### 1/5 — Not able to use

*2023-01-11, version 2.3*

Looking to sign up for bible reading plan but completely unable to locate or sign up

### 1/5 — ads are killing my experience

*2022-11-15, version 2.3*

I hate the pop up ads and i paid for the subscription

### 1/5 — Ads

*2022-05-07, version 2.3*

Uninstalled has way to many ads

### 1/5 — Changed from free to a pay subscription suddenly. I’ve had free for years.

*2021-12-30, version 2.3*

Changed from free to a pay subscription suddenly. I’ve had free for years.

I love this so much..me and my son read it everyday!

### 5/5 — God influenced

*2023-05-09*

Just a wonderfully detailed app that is very easy to use and navigate. A one stop shop sort of faithful tool for today’s world.

### 5/5 — Pretty good so far.

*2023-02-19, version 2.3*

Scripturally sound so far, which I am always looking for. Abundance of resources for a wide variety of interests.

### 5/5 — Easy To Use

*2021-02-05*

When you download this app, you will find that after you create an account, you will be able to pick your favorite topics such as Single Moms, Parenting, Teens, Seniors, and much more. You will see that these topics’ articles are easy to find and share. Also, on one part of their app, you will be able to download all the apps that are from Salem, who is the developer of this app. God bless!

### 5/5 — Love this app! Thank you!

*2020-03-12, version 2.3*

### 5/5 — Update please

*2017-10-18, version 1.2.1*

Update please

### 4/5 — Almost Perfect

*2023-08-06*

I love this app and all it has to offer. My one complaint is there appears to be no search function. For example there is a very interesting article on Emnity in the web site but no apparent way to search for it in the app. Hopefully this will be addressed in a future update.

### 4/5 — Great. BUT

*2020-03-29, version 2.3*

Can you please enhance the font size in articles for persons of low vision?
