### 5/5 — A Gem of an app

*2026-05-19, version 50.0.3*

Such a really great Bible study app. I’m really gonna miss it when it gets replaced. Much easier for me to understand versus the logos app that is replacing it. an example would be Hosea ch. 6. This app clearly states,  “6:1 -7:16 This passage emphasizes Israel’s sin and injustice, especially its failure to truly repent, acknowledge its guilt, and seek Yahweh for help.” The new logos app is more extensive, but the point is lost on me. I think I need a Bible study app for “dummies”. I’m sad to see this app go. And I’m not sure what I’m going to do now.☹️

### 1/5 — Cost

*2026-04-09, version 49.0.1*

I had been looking for a good Bible study companion and I found this app which I started to like. I was searching for some information and then received a message I had used the maximum amount of queries and I would have to get a subscription to continue, so I deleted the app. Charging people for something like this may discourage people from building their relationship with God, so zero stars.
