### 3/5 — 한국어성경 내용이 나오지않음

*2025-11-10*

잘 사용하다가 기기변경후 앱을 설치해서 사용하려는데 다시는 성경약어는 한글로 표시되나 내용은 일본어와 중국어 등이 기본적으로 나오면서 설정을 한국어로 변경해도 되지 않습니다.
답변부탁합니다.

**Developer response:** 새 기기에서 앱이 작동하게 되어 기쁩니다. 앱 자체에서 소리만 잘 들리면 모든 내용이 한국어로 제대로 표시됩니다. 한국어 성경만 설치하시면 됩니다. 기본적으로 한국어 성경 샘플이 설치되어 있지 않습니다. 죄송합니다. 한국어 성경의 EPUB 버전을 직접 찾아서 설치하셔야 합니다. Equipd 성경 앱은 수백 가지 언어로 된 성경을 지원합니다. EPUB 형식의 성경을 앱에 다운로드하고 설치하는 방법에 대한 도움이 필요하시면 웹사이트를 참조하시거나 support@equipd.me로 문의해 주시면 자세한 안내를 도와드리겠습니다. 행운을 빕니다!

Glad you could get the app working on your new device. So the app itself is correctly showing everything in Korean by the sounds - you just need to install a Korean Bible. There are no sample Korean Bible's installed by default sorry - you need to locate and install the EPUB version of the Korean Bible yourself. There are Bibles in hundreds of languages that are supported by the Equipd Bible app. If you need help in how to download and install Bibles in EPUB format into the app you can refer to the website, or please reach out to support@equipd.me and I can provide further instructions. All the best!

### 4/5 — Love this app!  Such a blessing!

*2025-05-11, version 4.1.3*

I have used this app for decades, from it's earliest development.  How wonderful it is to have more access to more Bible translations,in particular the ones that actually have God's name in them. And i LOVE the Bible book/chapter/verse Pickers!  As it makes it so much easier and quicker to navigate the Bible(s); As well as, the Font Size enlarger, since I'm legally blind.  My prayer is that the developer of this  invaluable app will continue to support having this app  available, accessible and updated when needed for all users, including blind users who use screen-readers on their devices, such as, VoiceOver on iPhone and Talk Back on Android.  Thankyou SO much!

### 3/5 — 환불해주세요

*2024-02-15, version 4.1.3*

한국어로 번역 되지 않네요. 환불 부탁드립니다.

### 5/5 — Excellent App!

*2024-01-14, version 4.1.3*

I absolutely love this app, but unfortunately I cannot download the NW Translation on my new iPad since there is no longer an option to download the Bible from JW.org. This app does deserves 5 stars though because it’s that good. If there is a workaround for reloading the NW Translation into the app will someone please let me know?

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP

*2023-12-19, version 4.1.3*

I have been enjoying Equipd for several years — to copy and paste scriptures; as I  take notes during talks, assemblies, conventions, CO visits, theocratic schools, etc. It’s a wonderful tool! Love it :-)

### 5/5 — 너무 유용한 앱이에요

*2023-11-20*

중국어 발음이 보여서 처음 사게 되었는데 이제는 성구 복사, 붙여 넣기가 너무 좋아서 필기할 때는 이 앱만 사용하고 있습니다. 오랜만의 업데이트 소식이 너무 반갑네요. 잘 쓰고 있습니다~!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-11-11, version 4.1.2*

This app makes it easy to get to each Bible book and to go directly to each chapter and verse.

### 2/5 — Translations

*2023-11-11, version 4.1.2*

Only two Bible translations are available on this app. I expected more than that.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2023-11-10*

I really wish that the provider would keep working on it and improving it. Although I have no problems with it. I could only imagine what his mind would come up with. I love the copy and pasting, the search,and the access to the different translations. THANK YOU!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-11-04*

I continue to use the Equip Bible and love it, the one feature that I really enjoy is the fact that when I look for a scripture it takes me to the chapter AND verse without me having to scroll to the verse. I updated my equipd Bible app and now when I open a book to read and go to scroll the page it bounces and won’t scroll. I am on the latest update on my iPad, 17.1 Any suggestion?

This is absolute the best app around for Bible study and research. I had a problem with an update and notified the developer and he jumps right on it and the problem was addressed and fixed within hours not days or weeks. Thank you so very much Matt.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback Glenn. I am hoping this issue is now fixed with the v4.1.1 update?

### 3/5 — 업데이트 후 성구창 고정

*2023-11-04*

성구를 여러개를 클릭해 보면 성구 창이 커지면서 모두를 볼 수 있었는데 업데이트 되면서 성구창은 그대로라서 글씨가 숨겨집니다. 
불편한데 해결 부탁합니다

**Developer response:** 앱에서 이런 일이 발생한다는 소식을 들으니 정말 안타깝습니다. 이는 원래 의도된 방식이 아니며, 더욱이 이 문제는 소수의 사용자에게만 국한된 것으로 보입니다.

이유와 방법을 파악하지 못했지만 대부분은 다음을 통해 문제를 해결했습니다.

1) 앱 내부에서 수동 백업을 사용하여 메모와 북마크를 백업하세요.
2) 앱을 삭제합니다.
3) 기기를 다시 시작하세요.
4) 앱을 다시 설치하세요.

그러면 문제가 해결된 것 같습니다.

이 단계를 시도해보고 어떻게 진행되는지 확인하시기 바랍니다. 그래도 문제가 해결되지 않으면 support@equipd.me로 문의하세요.

불편을 끼쳐드려 다시 한번 죄송합니다. 위의 단계에 따라 문제를 해결할 수 있기를 진심으로 바랍니다.

### 5/5 — 너무 좋아요 非常好的软件

*2023-11-04*

너무 잘 사용하고 있습니다. 이렇게 잊지않고 업데이트도 해줘서 너무 고마워요. 잘 쓸께요

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2023-11-03*

Been using this app every day in the ministry, meets my needs completely. Love it. Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Super useful

*2023-11-03, version 4.1.0*

The bookmark categories functions serve very well on shepherding calls. It is also nice to be able to vector right to the verse(s) so as not having to scroll through the chapter.

### 2/5 — Letztes update

*2023-11-03*

Seit den letzten update wird die gesuchte Bibelseite bei meinen IPad 12.9 nicht mehr korrekt angezeigt und es lässt sich auch nicht runter scrollen.

**Developer response:** I am sorry to hear that this happened for you. I pushed another update and all issues now seem resolved for users. Is it resolved for you as well? Some users have had to delete and reinstall the app, but hopefully this is not necessary in your case. If you are still having issues can you please reach out to support@equipd.me for further assistance.Es tut mir leid zu hören, dass Ihnen das passiert ist. Ich habe ein weiteres Update veröffentlicht und nun scheinen alle Probleme für die Benutzer gelöst zu sein. Ist es bei dir auch gelöst? Einige Benutzer mussten die App löschen und neu installieren, aber hoffentlich ist dies in Ihrem Fall nicht notwendig. Wenn weiterhin Probleme auftreten, wenden Sie sich bitte an support@equipd.me, um weitere Hilfe zu erhalten.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — 한국어 성경

*2025-11-26, version 4.1.4*

방금 Equipd앱을 구매했는데 한국어 성경은 안뜨네요. 
앱 설정> 성경 아래에 “더 많은 종류의 성경을 다운로드 하시겠습니까”에 들어가봐도 한국어가 없어요. 
파란색 작은 글씨로 “다시 설정”에서 영어를 지우고 한국어 성경을 입력해 봤지만 안됩니다. 
예전 앱은 3.0버전인데 새로 구매한 앱은 2.0버전이네요. 
저는 일단 환불 요청을 했습니다. 
빠른 해결 부탁합니다.

### 1/5 — 没有韩语圣经

*2024-10-06*

被骗了

**Developer response:** 리뷰 감사합니다. 앱이 설치될 때 한국어 성경이 포함되지 않는 것은 맞습니다. 앱 번들 크기가 너무 커지지 않도록 하기 위해서입니다. 하지만 JW.org에서 EPUB 형식의 한국어 성경을 설치할 수 있습니다. 도움이 필요하면 support@equipd.me로 이메일을 보내주세요. 그렇지 않으면 앱이 기대에 부응하지 못하면 앱 스토어 환불 절차를 사용하세요. 완전히 이해하며 혼란을 드려 죄송합니다. 최고의 결과를 기원합니다.

Thanks for your review. You are correct that the app does not include a Korean Bible when it is installed, to stop the app bundle size from being too large. But you can install Korean Bibles in EPUB format from JW.org. If you need help with this please email support@equipd.me. Otherwise if the app does not meet expectations please use the App Store refund process, totally understood and apologies for any confusion. All the best.

### 1/5 — Not an improvement - -

*2023-11-03*

I use three Bibles (English, Simplified Chinese, and Pinyin Chinese) that are displayed in their own separate windows. Since the update, it no longer uses the entire window to display the Bible text. Even ONE verse, I now have to ‘scroll’ in order to read the text - before the update, I could simply read the text without having to scroll. The display windows for each Bible version are now extremely small - this is highly annoying!

**Developer response:** Hi again. I haven't figured out why or how, but most users have solved the problem by following these steps:

1) Backup your notes and bookmarks using manual backup inside the app.
2) Delete the app.
3) Restart your device.
4) Reinstall the app.

I encourage you to try these steps and see how it goes. If this does not resolve the issue, please contact support@equipd.me.

I apologise again for any inconvenience.

### 1/5 — 한국어버전/환불요청

*2021-10-22*

한국어 지원이라고 해서 구매를 했는데 한국어가 나오지 않는군요. epub 화일을 다운받아서 해 보려해도 어렵기만 하구요. 수고스럽겠지만 환불 요청합니다.

**Developer response:** 의견을 보내주셔서 감사합니다. 앱 인터페이스는 모든 문구가 한국어로 표시되어야 합니다. 이것은 장치에 대해 선택된 기본 언어를 기반으로 합니다. 한국어로 된 기본 성경은 없지만 JW.org와 같은 사이트에서 EPUB 형식으로 호환되는 성경을 직접 다운로드하여 설치할 수 있습니다.

환불에 문제는 없으나, 개발자가 아닌 Apple에서 앱을 구매한 점 참고 부탁드립니다. Apple은 판매 및 환불 절차를 관리합니다. Apple에서 환불을 요청하는 방법에 대한 Google 검색을 수행하십시오. 프로세스는 간단합니다. 모두 제일 좋다.

Thanks for your feedback. The app interface should be showing all wording in Korean. This is based on the default language selected for your device. There are no default Bibles in Korean, but you can download and install compatible Bibles in EPUB format yourself from sites like JW.org.

It is no problem about getting a refund, however please note that you did not purchase the app from the developer, but rather from Apple. Apple control the sales and refund process. Please do a Google search on how to request a refund from Apple, the process is straight forward. All the best.

### 1/5 — Problème

*2021-10-01*

Avant j’arrivais à télécharger des Bibles epub, et restaurer mes sauvegardes que je récupérais sur ma boîte mail sur Equipd Bible Maintenant il impossible que je puisse faire ses opérations sur mon téléphone et sur mon iPad. Lorsque je souhaite télécharger une bible en epub, seuls iBook et d’autres applications sont proposées pas le votre. Pouvez-vous résoudre ce bug ? Svp

**Developer response:** Désolé pour toute confusion. Apple a modifié le fonctionnement des téléchargements dans Safari sous iOS 13 et a depuis lors dérouté de nombreux utilisateurs. Il télécharge EPUB et d'autres fichiers dans l'application Fichiers > dossier Téléchargements. Et vous devez suivre un flux de travail spécifique pour que ce fichier EPUB s'ouvre dans une application autre que l'Apple Books par défaut.

Donc... après avoir téléchargé le fichier EPUB dans Safari, veuillez passer à l'application Fichiers séparée, puis allez dans le dossier Téléchargements, puis localisez le fichier EPUB et appuyez + maintenez sur le nom du fichier. Un menu devrait apparaître qui inclut une option "Partager", et vous devriez essayer de choisir l'application Equipd Bible dans la liste des applications avec lesquelles partager le fichier. Si l'application Equipd Bible n'apparaît pas dans la liste des applications, vous devez faire défiler et utiliser le bouton "... Plus" pour y accéder.

J'ai créé un article pour essayer d'aider les utilisateurs :
http://www.equipd.me/install-ios13

Veuillez lire attentivement l'article et voir si cela a du sens, car le processus vous aidera également avec d'autres fichiers que vous téléchargerez à l'avenir, pas seulement pour la Bible Equipd. Petit conseil : si vous trouvez toujours le processus déroutant, essayez plutôt d'utiliser l'application Google Chrome.

J'espère que ça aide. Sinon, veuillez envoyer un e-mail à support@equipd.me pour une assistance plus personnelle.

Sorry for any confusion. Apple changed how downloads work in Safari in iOS 13 and it has confused many users ever since. It downloads EPUB and other files to the Files app > Downloads folder. And you need to follow a specific workflow to get that EPUB file to open in an app other than the default Apple Books.

So ... after downloading the EPUB file in Safari, please switch to the separate Files app, then go to the Downloads folder, then locate the EPUB file and tap + hold on the file name. A menu should appear that includes a "Share" option, and you should try to choose the Equipd Bible app from the list of apps to share the file with. If the Equipd Bible app does not show in the list of apps you need to scroll across and use the "... More" button to access it.

I created an article to try and help users:
http://www.equipd.me/install-ios13

Please have a good look at the article and see if it makes sense as the process will help you with other files you download in the future as well, not just for the Equipd Bible. Quick tip - if you still find the process confusing, try using the Google Chrome app instead.

I hope that helps. Otherwise please email support@equipd.me for more personal assistance.

### 1/5 — Tolle App Aber unter iPad OS 15 keine Open in Funktion

*2021-09-23*

Tolle App Aber unter iPad OS 15 keine Open in Funktion. Ich kann keinen Support erreichen. Vielleicht wird es hier wahrgenommen?

**Developer response:** Hallo, danke für die Kontaktaufnahme. Ich konnte keine Nachrichten im Support-Posteingang sehen - der Support kann über support@equipd.me erreicht werden. Ich kann bestätigen, dass die Equipd Bible unter iOS 15 gut funktioniert und auch das Installieren neuer Bibeln funktioniert.

Die Art und Weise, wie Safari Dateien herunterlädt und verwaltet, hat sich in iOS 13 stark geändert. EPUB-Dateien werden jetzt in den Ordner "Downloads" in der separaten Dateien-App heruntergeladen. Sie müssen die Datei-App öffnen> gehen Sie zum Ordner Downloads> suchen Sie die EPUB-Datei> tippen Sie dann auf den Dateinamen und halten Sie ihn gedrückt, bis das Menü erscheint, und wählen Sie "Teilen". Sie können die EPUB-Datei dann mit der Equipd Bible-App "teilen", um sie als neue Bibel zu installieren.

Eine Support-Seite mit weiteren Anweisungen gibt es hier: https://equipd.me/install-ios13.

Als zusätzliche Option finden es einige einfacher, einen anderen Browser wie Google Chrome auszuprobieren, um die EPUB-Datei herunterzuladen und zu installieren.

Alles Gute. Wie bereits erwähnt, können Sie sich für zusätzliche Unterstützung an support@equipd.me wenden.

Hi, thanks for reaching out. I could not see any messages in the Support Inbox - support can be reached using support@equipd.me. I can confirm that the Equipd Bible works fine on iOS 15, and installing new Bibles also works fine as well. 

The way that Safari downloads and manages files changed a lot in iOS 13. EPUB files are now downloaded to the "Downloads" folder in the separate Files app. You need to open the Files app > go do the Downloads folder > locate the EPUB file > then tap+hold on the file name until the menu appears and choose "Share". You can then "Share" the EPUB file to the Equipd Bible app to install as a new Bible.

There is a support page with further instructions here: https://equipd.me/install-ios13. 

As an additional option some find it easier to try another browser like Google Chrome to download and install the EPUB file.

All the best. As mentioned you can reach out to support@equipd.me for additional support.

### 5/5 — 2026 it’s still working great

*2026-03-02*

I had the old app & used this since the beginning. Sometimes I get a new phone & forget how to set it up so I go to fb & message the brother there & he helps. Best app for comparing versions, cross references, languages & copy/ paste. I use it every day even to quickly pull up scriptures to compare & share.

**Developer response:** Sorry for any confusion. I can clarify that the installation of new Bibles in EPUB format is working fine on iOS 15.0.2 which is the latest version.

Apple changed how downloads work in Safari in iOS 13 and it has confused many users ever since. It downloads EPUB and other files to the Files app > Downloads folder. And you need to follow a specific workflow to get that EPUB file to open in an app other than the default Apple Books.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2024-10-30, version 4.1.3*

Amazing 🤩 used it for 10 years or more.  Had so many people & languages at the meetings with me. I could show them at all the same time 🤩.                       Jw.org.       Great website take a look 👀❤️

### 5/5 — Wonderful Bible App!

*2024-08-25*

An excellent and flexible Bible App.

I use it in bible study to add notes, internet links to reference works, related scriptures, and links to Watchtower Library articles.

You can even link your notes to the Hebrew or Greek dictionary definitions from Strongs Concordance if it is installed.
For example: G2316 for the Greek word theós often translated God.

You can add an "internet link" to a verse note simply by putting the url internet address in the note.

If you put a word from the verse you are commenting on within quotation marks, it will be highlighted in the main text to show that it is commented on in your note.

If you put a related scriptures within parentheses and save the note, the related scripture will popup within the note.

If you tap on the underlined scripture within the popup. You will jump to that verse in the Bible.

I also appreciate the ease of copying selected scriptures from the Bible, enabling you to paste the copied text of the verse or verses into whatever you are working on.

There are other excellent search and Concordance features as well.

You can also install multiple versions of the Bible by importing epub files of whatever Bible you wish to install.

Many Bible versions are available.

Thank you so much for your wonderful App

### 5/5 — Greatest Chinese pinying apps

*2024-03-17*

I have been trying to find a Chinese pinying bible app for a long time now, and has never able to find a bible combine with a pinying. 
But this app it doesn’t just Chinese but all languages with it. The best app and worth the money to spend.
