Wonderful Addition to my Study

This app is amazing. I love that I can get another breakdown of the scripture that I may have not absorbed. App is functional and savvy. I do have one suggestion though. For the hyperlinked verses, it would be nice if we could scroll in the pop up so that we can read the full scripture linked without leaving the page. This way we never lose our place. When you leave into the bible page and come back to the lesson of the day it starts back at the beginning of the page, causing you to have to search for where you were. Thank you for helping to keep me connected to God!!! 💖✝️🙏

Night Mode Please

Please give the option for night mode. I predominantly use this app to read before bed & it is SO bright despite my phone being in dark mode.

Loving this app daily for YEARS

The only app I found that offers entire Bible studies along with daily devotions and connections to community for free. Beautifully designed, user friendly, and geared towards women from all backgrounds. Save verses, graphics, and engage in thoughtful commentary from P31 writers and fellow Christians. No subscription whatsoever. Have found no other apps like this.

Text is too small

The app works well overall, but the text is really tiny. My phone is set to use larger text but this app is not one that adjusts to that setting, and there is not a setting within the app to change the font size or zoom in either.

Disappointed that it’s now restricted and requires sign up

When I first got this app, I loved it. It was open access other than making comments or asking questions about a study. If you wanted feedback and discussion, you could sign up. I didn’t have to create an account to view the whole study, such that if I missed a day, I could go back and review what I missed, or I could go back to a day that I wanted to spend more time with. I could see previous studies, so I could do additional devotions on my own. I love having something short and concise that gets my day off to a good start. I am an extremely busy person with almost no sit down time during my typically 18-20 hour day. Now, they have restricted all access except to the current day of study. If you miss a day, and you want to see it, sorry, you have to give them your information and create an account and sign in. I won’t do it. I don’t want an account. I don’t want things coming to my inbox. I don’t want to have yet another password to deal with. I can’t recommend it anymore.
