Needs routine updates for bug removal. I purchased the current plan and the app says owned in the store. However, there is not any content showing including previous purchases. I did delete the app and download again as well. Still no content despite showing owned. Going to request a refund and find a more reliable study plan ### 2/5 — Previous Features Removed *2019-05-28, version 2.10* What happened to the ability to Highlight text? Also, what happened to the ability to copy lines. Please bring these features back! Are these Reviews passed on to the publisher and app developers? Does anyone care, including Apple App Store? PLEASE RESPOND! Thanks. ### 3/5 — Devotional Terrific. App horrible *2019-03-01, version 2.10* Everyday I delete the app and reinstall it in order to get my readings. I do it because I love the devotionals. Of course, my favorites are erased. Can’t you fix this??? I can see I’m not the only one having problems. And I can’t find who to contact. ### 3/5 — No updates for Winter 2018 / Spring 2019 *2018-12-06, version 2.6.3* I use this app everyday and the content is great but there are often technical glitches especially when new updates should come on stream....I can live with this but what is so frustrating is that there is no email address given anywhere to report technical problems with the app....For example I haven’t had access to the current readings now since the last readings finished on the 25th November 2018 and it’s now 6th December 2018...I’m just waiting / hoping (dare I say praying) everyday that the problem will be noticed and fixed.... 1/ Why can’t the new content be added in good time before the old expires? 2/ Can you please add an email contact for reporting problems with the app both here in the App Store and within the app itself 3/ The daily bible verse references aren’t opening the bible text for at least 6-months I have been reading them from another bible app. ### 2/5 — No update for winter 18 *2018-12-03, version 2.6.3* Are you not doing the electronic any longer? ### 3/5 — I can’t link to bible verse *2018-09-04, version 2.6.1* I can’t link to bible verse ### 2/5 — Broken Bible Link *2018-05-31, version 2.6.0* I really like this app until recently the Bible links to the versus stopped working. I suspect it’s related to iOS update, but the support page for Abingdon press does not appear to work anymore ### 2/5 — Content not uploaded *2017-11-06, version 2.5.7* GREAT content, poor administration. What’s the holdup on content upload? ### 3/5 — It Has Been Updated and Fixed *2017-09-12, version 2.5.6* Version 2.5.5 has issues loading the current quarter's material. I've purchased the material for Fall 2017 but the app tells me I haven't purchased it and I haven't been able to access the material. This is not the first time I have encountered this problem. I go through this each quarter. Needs some work. App is great when it works, but is not reliable. UPDATE: Version 2.5.6 has resolved the issue of loading Fall 2017 content. Thank you for resolving that issue. ### 1/5 — Paid download does not work *2017-08-31, version 2.5.5* Bought the Fall 2017 and app shows those readings. When I open any one of them, they are empty! Called Cokesbury and was given a number for Abingdon Press who said I needed to call Cokesbury technical support. Called Cokesbury tech support number. Person answering phone told me he would pass my problem to a tech. NO RESPONSE back! I really liked the app but am deleting and moving on to another. ### 2/5 — Daily Readings do not update. *2016-09-09, version 2.5.0* I would love this app but the daily readings do not update. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2016-09-04, version 2.5.0* I love this app and enjoy reading it daily, but it would be great to get the new content on time. It's 4 days in, and no new content. Will be looking for a different app that keeps their content up to date. Update: September 11th and still no new material Finally have the new material after waiting again, and we are not able to purchase it. Please fix the bug in the app! ### 1/5 — DIFFICULT !!!! can't get anything to work *2016-08-29, version 2.4.11* Just purchased and got the two week trial. Thankful I didn't purchase any because nothing helps you figure anything out and only says not downloaded and go to store which again tells you absolutely nothing and no help what so ever ! By the time you try to get anything out of this you NEED a devotion ! I had to give it a star to be able to send review or wouldn't have! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No scriptures *2021-01-02, version 2.12.1* This quarter’s lessons did not download the scriptures. This app has never worked correctly. It is very frustrating. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-02-25, version 2.12.0* Paid for daily reading download today and saw them once, now unable to restore. Complete rip off!! ### 1/5 — App problem *2019-06-12, version 2.10* Please fix the app. I have to delete and reload it every day. ### 1/5 — Where is the winter 2018 data *2018-12-10, version 2.6.3* I am still waiting for the winter 2018 data. I have tried everything. Called tech support they did not know about the app. It was a very neat app but a wast of time. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2018-11-20, version 2.6.3* I downloaded this app 2 days ago and it doesn’t work. I was able to access scripture the first day. Today it says it can’t load the daily verse, so I’m deleting the app. ### 1/5 — No content, do not Download *2018-10-29, version 2.6.3* I was excited to add this to my collection of study resources on my phone. Downloaded and everything was blank. Calendar did not work. All other areas had no content or didn’t function properly ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2018-10-20, version 2.6.1* I keep having to delete the app, reinstall each day to read the daily Bible study. Some days it will not open at all after I install it. I cannot rate this app since I have only been able to open two daily readings since August because it has become such a hassle. Since it freezes I cannot even reach technical support. ### 1/5 — Mr N Patterson *2018-03-26, version 2.5.9* Enjoyed this app up until 31 August 2014. Since then I have bought new readings but none of them will download. When I try the search date it always reverts to 31 August 2014. Loved this app before but am now very frustrated with it paying for content through the apple store that I never get. Extremely disappointing as the previous readings I did get were very good ### 1/5 — How to update? *2018-01-04, version 2.5.8* Got yesterday's first reading without a problem, but it does not automatically update each day. It is a mystery how to get the next reading! ### 1/5 — Favorite, but.... *2017-09-01, version 2.5.5* Historically this has been my favorite daily resource - love the direct link to the specific Bible reading. That said, there continue to be tech issues, most recently with the Fall 2017 issue. Hoping the issues are addressed and resolved quickly. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love love love this app *2023-09-07, version 2.12.1* I wonder if you can add social media links to share a days commentary to gain attention to this app ### 5/5 — In Jesus' name, please update this App! *2023-03-20, version 2.12.1* These are the best Bible Study lessons I've found but the app is broken. I understand technology might not be your calling, but it is the platform GOD gave you to spread His Word. I pray that you update the app so GOD can continue to bless us through you by His Word. GOD Bless You All! ### 5/5 — Please Keep Content Current *2017-11-28, version 2.5.8* Update: The Winter 2017 content was available for purchase four days before it was needed, and it downloaded perfectly. Thank you! I am updating my rating from 1 star to 5 stars. September 14...still waiting on Fall 2017 content to download... I am updating this review. The content of this app is still very good, however, same issue with new content not downloading at purchase. The update indicates Fall 2017 content was added on August 24, 2017. Six days later, no new readings!! The content of the daily studies is very good (which would rate 5 stars), but the inability of Abingdon Press to upload them in a timely manner is very discouraging (hence, the 1 star rating), especially since this has happened two quarters in a row. After almost a full week of the new quarter and still no daily readings, I am looking for another daily devotion. ### 5/5 — Very interesting *2017-10-17, version 2.5.6* I am in love with this app and it's amazing. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2017-06-03, version 2.5.4* I so enjoy reading the daily on my iPad and phone. The Word is alway at my fingertips. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-06-02, version 2.5.4* I've had this app since 2010 on my iPad and my iPhone for some time as well. It's really great and I just want to say I really appreciate the creators and all their hard work giving glory to God. God bless ### 5/5 — Bible Study App *2017-02-18, version 2.5.2* Fulfills my needs spiritually. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Question *2016-03-25, version 2.4.11* How do I get the new reading of the day, it says to download in App Store but not sure where to get it? ### 5/5 — Blessing *2016-01-04, version 2.4.9* Love this app. Daily uplifting verses from the bible that remind us that we don't need to be perfect to be loved. <3 ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2015-11-29, version 2.4.9* This Bible study is just what I was looking for....short and to the point and very easy to use.
