It is an amazing supplement, and is so helpful! I usually don’t use Bible apps, but this is one that I will be using often. ### 5/5 — Amazing App for Biblical Guidance! *2025-02-19, version 1.2.54* This app is truly a blessing! I love how it allows me to ask questions and receive answers rooted in Scripture. It makes studying the Bible so much more engaging and helps me grow in my faith. The responses are insightful, accurate, and always point back to God’s Word. Whether I need encouragement, clarity, or deeper understanding, this app delivers. Highly recommend to anyone seeking biblical wisdom in their daily walk with Christ! ### 5/5 — Awesome for depth and personalization *2025-02-19, version 1.2.54* Devote is a fresh new way to look at the Bible delivering fresh insights to verses. It is a great way for me to go more in depth with my scripture reading as well as personalize what I want to study! ### 5/5 — perfect for bible studies *2025-02-19, version 1.2.54* so helpful to learn the bible in context. i love the visuals to help me understand each verse better. the guided devotionals are so helpful to my walk with God! ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2025-02-18, version 1.2.54* This app is perfect for deepening your relationship with God and devoting more time to Him! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unable to use *2026-01-06, version 1.5.3* I really wanted to try this Bible app. I couldn’t get past the greeting. I tried several times. I’m disappointed ### 1/5 — Time To Say Goodbye *2025-12-22* I absolutely loved the concept of this app and the daily devotionals catered to personal details was life changing! However, the latest updates are telling me it’s time to go. I understood having a premium version as all apps do but $6.99 A WEEK is crazy. A month? maybe. A WEEK? insane. But, I was still willing to use the free version and maybe give premium a try during Lent. However, now the search feature (the whole point of the app being different from other apps) is a premium feature. I’d rather just read my physical Bible and the occasional Google search once again. App is not worth it anymore. **Developer response:** hey Sonag sorry to see you go, if the price is an issue we soon plan to have a pay it forward to allow people who can't pay. You can still use the Bible and chatting with the Bible all for free. Currently our custom trained Bible AI models are very expensive but as a small self funded team we are working hard to bring costs down to make it one day 100% free. ### 1/5 — You have to pay to use the chat *2025-12-21, version 1.5.0* Very disappointing update. Now we have to pay just to use the chat feature. This is supposed to be a Bible app, but it feels like everything is being monetized now. Faith and scripture shouldn’t be locked behind paywalls. It’s really annoying and takes away from what the app is meant to be. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-04-25, version 1.3.79* For some reason when I try to sign up after going into the app, there’s a section to give a review. But I can’t press any buttons or do anything to go forward. Thereby.. I cannot use this app. It literally won’t let me. ### 1/5 — Nothing will show up *2025-04-14, version 1.3.73* i got this app because there was a really good review online and i think it is really good but none of the words would show up. i could click things and use the app like normal but the whole screen was blank. please fix this, i wanna use the app so badly!! ### 3/5 — I tried *2026-01-07, version 1.5.3* I heard about this app on tiktok and downloaded it but unfortunately it would not respond after the initial greeting 🤷🏽‍♀️..I tried deleting and reinstalling multiple times but still frozen..whelp🥲..I really couldn’t give it a low review as I really never got to experience it but based on the reviews and the developers responses it seems promising. ### 3/5 — I can’t tell why you have to pay *2025-12-10, version 1.4.17* Do you have to pay? Also, are there options for pre-made devotions for each day? And can you view sermons from your favourite preachers? Maybe I just can’t find these, but I guess these are suggestions… ? ### 3/5 — We really have to pay for a devotional app!! *2025-03-30, version 1.3.68* This app is awesome, other than you have to pay to have it. I wish instead of having to pay, there could be an option box for anytime some wanted to donate some money, so teens trying to get this app to help them with their walk with God that have parents that aren’t willing to let them spend 40 bucks on “an app” could still have an opportunity to use this. ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2026-05-31, version 1.6.3* Really great app! The devotionals are amazing! And I love the voices for the AI ### 5/5 — Best Bible app 🙏 *2026-01-22, version 1.5.4* I use this everyday for my quiet time, It makes learning Gods words so much easier! ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This is not like the other Bible apps! *2025-10-17* Devote is the best app ever! It has helped me deepen and grow my walk with God. I love the personalized devotionals I use it everyday! If you’re contemplating downloading the app DO IT! ### 5/5 — Best AI Bible app *2025-09-30, version 1.4.6* I now use Devote everyday for my quiet time and devotionals. It has replaced all my other apps. I use it to understand the hundreds of scriptures, questions, and topics I don’t understand. Because of its true unwavering biblical foundation I’m able to understands God’s heart and Word better! ### 5/5 — Loving this app *2025-09-27, version 1.4.5* Devote is so good, love getting personalized devotions, and getting to see clips and thoughts from pastors I’ve selected and added into my devotions, the ability to ask devote questions and help me study the Bible easier than ever in a way personalized to me is amazing! ### 5/5 — It’s a must! *2025-09-26, version 1.4.5* This app has been an absolute gift from God. Considering reading a traditional book is difficult for me due to my lack of focus. This app has made Bible study so easy. Not only that with the addition of the AI allows me to ask deeper profound questions and get the responses back by biblical scripture. I’m so appreciative. ### 5/5 — Daily scripture + encouragement *2025-07-08, version 1.3.98* This app is set apart when it comes to the Bible world and tech. I love how personalized the devos are, without compromising Biblical integrity. The teachers you can choose from are a great selection too. Loving this so far! ### 5/5 — Loved this app! *2025-06-23, version 1.3.98* I don’t know how, but I feel like devote always brought me so much understanding, and relief, and I’ve definitely gotten closer to God since I started using it! Somehow the app always seems to understand what I mean, and that makes everything 10x easier! ### 5/5 — It is absolutely splendid! *2025-06-10, version 1.3.98* This app has helped me so far with getting in the word and also understanding it. The notifications also help😉 ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-05-03, version 1.4.81* Perfect for Bible study --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
