### 4/5 — Love content

*2023-11-02, version 10.0.15*

I love the content but the app does not seem to work very well.  I have to delete the app and reinstall after each message.

### 4/5 — Good Enough

*2022-04-15*

The layout isn’t great but the app serves it’s purpose. Like any new app or website, you have to go exploring to figure out where everything is or you can just use the search bar to try to find something a bit faster. Thank you Elevation Church for providing this resource to help me in furthering my relationship with God. 🙏❤️

### 1/5 — Blacked out app

*2021-09-15, version 9.0.24*

Love the church but the app doesn’t work. I’ve deleted it and added it back on. Same problem with it just showing a black screen. Hopefully it can be fixed!

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2021-07-23, version 9.0.20*

Every time I scroll down in the sermons to continue where I left off it freezes, crashes and restarts. I can’t listen to the sermons because of it. Before the update it worked perfectly. Please fix

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2025-10-31, version 11.3.4*

The ATV app continues to crash upon launch. Developer plz help

### 1/5 — I THOUGHT THIS WAS ACTUAL ELIVATION

*2025-01-24, version 11.3.4*

Scrolled through the app options, this app is so dark with smiling faces….

### 1/5 — Fine on iPhone

*2025-01-02, version 11.3.4*

App works fine on my phone, immediately crashes on AppleTV

### 1/5 — False teaching

*2023-09-16, version 10.0.15*

Anyone who believes anything Steve Furtick teaches does not have a solid grasp on what the Bible teaches.  Steve Furtick is just another prosperity preacher who once openly declared the he was god almighty.  You all need to wake up.

### 1/5 — Horrible Experiencs

*2023-07-14, version 10.0.15*

I’ve enjoyed Elevation Church quite a bit, so I downloaded the app, so I could see Elevation Church sermons more frequently. After several attempts to use the app, I am deleting it again. The app dimply will not play the sermons. Again, several attempts. It may be user error, but not a single one of my other scores of apps “don’t work” like this one. Huge disappointment. Boo!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2022-09-25, version 9.1.4*

Doesn’t work at all on my phone. All I get is a black blank screen. ☹️

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2022-04-19, version 9.1.4*

I love this app and then it stopped working … please fix whatever happened so o can have it back on my iPhone 😫😫😫

### 1/5 — Use this app all the time! Need/Love the content

*2022-02-27, version 9.1.4*

Lately Iv been having to delete and re load app every time I use it. Anyone else having this problem?

### 1/5 — Update is horrible

*2022-02-04, version 9.1.4*

It is so frustrating that it looks like another social media platform. You can’t post, you can’t tell the difference between a post and a sermon. None of the channels work or load properly. I quit. I will go to YouTube to get my sermon.

### 1/5 — Horrible App

*2021-11-16, version 9.0.29*

Trying to search sermons on the app is about the worst experience possible. Extremely small selection of past sermons. No way of clicking through topics or series. Trying to type in the search bar is a nightmare. After typing each letter you have to re-click in the search bubble. For a church that prides itself in the “experience” they seem to not put much effort into their app.

### 5/5 — Issues

*2023-05-27*

Let me say I love hearing Pastor speak but don’t like how I have to keep my phone open to hear it.. As I am driving down the road it won’t play for me to hear him.. I have tried the headphones and nope it is the same it closes after a minute and goes off… Not sure why… As before I was able to close it and listen..

### 5/5 — Great App

*2021-07-13, version 9.0.19*

A fantastic app that works well every time.

### 5/5 — Favor & Saved by Grace

*2020-12-22*

My name is Ashley Brooke Ritter I have been watching Bro & Sis Furt & elevation for about 7 years now. The last two years mostly. I am so thankful that you brought the word to my living room where we’d have church together even before covid. 
Without elevation online & pastors I can handle it, the do it again track,  without in this I must be confident & his real ness, I truly believe the enemy would of convinced me to end my own life. From giving my daughter up for adoption, toxic relationships, addiction, bars, casinos and random men I was a mess! I feel as if I know you guys & you helped save me. Last year my word was GraceWorks I now have an established business called “GraceWorks” still working on the details and whether or not the lord wants it to be a non profit, my story sounds unbelievable but he’s never left me one time, he has ran after me.
It didn’t click until a couple months back that grace doesn’t just work I am saved by grace. I’d love to join a group maybe even do more. I have let fear get the best of me without going into too much detail. I was born into a spirit filled family, strayed away for over a decade and I’ve returned home where I belong! I’m sorry I could’ve done more but will commit most definitely 2021. I can’t he can, he can through me!

### 5/5 — Please fix app. I love it so much!

*2020-09-21, version 8.0.5*

I love this app!! Since the last update my app doesn’t work. I’m hoping it gets fixed quickly I really miss it

### 5/5 — Yooooooo

*2020-08-26, version 7.2.6*

🪀!!

### 5/5 — It’s a yes from us!!!

*2020-08-22, version 7.2.6*

I love GOD/JESUS/HOLY SPIRIT//YAHWEH
and the only pastors I really ever listened to was Joyce Meyer & T.D Jakes. 
I came across Stephen F in the middle of looking at something completely different and wasn’t even looking for another pastor/preacher as I had my two favorite and didn’t even think that I could find another one that I loved listening to and I could relate to. Hold on there bcuz then I found STEPHEN FURTICK and now I am always listening to his teachings & now I have three. 
It’s funny bcuz I found this app & Stephen FURTICK in the second most difficult time of my entire life, Autumn of 2019. When I just found out that the person who I was looking forward to spending the rest of my young life with, was deceiving me BEYOND IMAGINATION and that I also had been charged with his crimes and paying for his wrongdoing, bcuz a year prior I covered up for him bcuz he is an Illegal alien and NOT supposed to be in the USA and instead of turning him in, I shut my mouth and didn’t tell on him which resulted in me getting accused of his crimes and getting punished for those crimes. In addition to that I also found out that he was having relationships and screwing around behind me and with prostitutes male and female as well as gave me diseases. The list goes on and on. So obviously I was screwed over pretty good and not to mention the fact that he had PLANNED IT ALL. 
All I can say is that I really appreciate finding Stephen and the Elevation app bcuz who knows what I would have done if I had not flipped my focus towards GOD and his words versus acting on ALL that Sergio Santana aka Sergio Gutierrez aka Genaro Vasquez Valladares(z) dob 8.7.1981 aka Sergio Mendoza aka Sergio/ Genaro the walking premeditated devil that purposely & premeditatedly screwed me over had done towards me. It’s a blessing to find such a great teacher and I found that with this app!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-04-20, version 7.1.8*

i love this app they have so many good sermons that really just impact your life. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!

*2020-04-12, version 7.1.8*

Pastor is on fire for God; filled with the Holy Spirit, bringing the true word & messages of the Bible to young or old. Talking in a manner we can all understand in this time in our lives. Praise & Glory be to God for filling this man with the Holy Spirit.
