### 2/5 — Bible is great. Configuring the site needs work.

*2026-04-30*

I have only had this app for a few days, I really like the content of this bible. The problem comes from the notifications I receive. A quote or passage will pop up on my home page and when I click on it, it automatically opens to Genesis 1. 
No matter what quote is sent, same thing.
More than a little irritating.

### 2/5 — Annoying ads

*2025-11-15*

It’s a great app but I find it irritating that you have to wait for an ad to finish before you can finally get to the scripture you opened it up to read in the first place. Then by the time the ad does finish I usually forget which scripture it was that I needed to read. Also the ads have sound and tend to be loud so if you happen to be in a Sermon at church and forget that you volume is turned up it can cause a disturbance. I don’t think it’s very fair that you have purchase something to get an add free version of the Bible. I’ll more then likely look for a different Geneva bible app that has no ads.

### 3/5 — Please update

*2025-06-30, version 1.0*

Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭27 missing last word.

### 3/5 — Interruptions

*2024-07-30, version 1.0*

I wanted to love this Bible, but one can’t do any serious reading due to the constant ad interruptions.  🙁

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2024-07-09, version 1.0*

The ads are ridiculous and so are the verses of the day. More effort in the app would help.

### 1/5 — Horrible typos

Too many ads

### 1/5 — Don’t know what this is… poorly written and disrespectful!

*2024-01-27, version 1.0*

This so called Geneva Bible is a sham.  Poorly written!  Spelling and grammatical mistakes in almost every verse!  Do not get!

### 1/5 — Where’s the Book of Enoch

*2024-01-27*

I got this app bc it should have the books of the Bible that were removed! Like the whole world MISLEADING AND FULL OF UNTRUE THINGS. Stop advertising to people who are trying to educate themselves and make them feel cheated so you can make money off your app

### 1/5 — Geneva Bible

*2023-08-09, version 1.0*

Optional features seem to be missing. 
No audio option. 
No modern spelling option, even tho the pics indicate otherwise.  
Please advise!

*2023-07-13, version 1.0*

I can’t figure out how to get it to read to me.

### 1/5 — The print cuts off

*2026-07-15*

I was looking to compare this Bible with the other editions I have. To see how much of the meaning of the text has changed. But with it cutting off near the end of the verse it’s hard to tell what is missing from the original text

### 1/5 — Bible verses incomplete

*2026-06-13*

Yea on my phone the actual bible verses are cut off like verse one it says “in the beginning God created the heaven and the” and that’s all for verse one I know the next word is earth but for someone who is reading for the first time it might be confusing

### 1/5 — A disappointed user

*2026-05-11, version 1.0*

ZERO stars and a BIG warning to potential downloaders: DON’T. I run the latest iOS yet the app comes bundled with FearWare, telling me my device has 70+ malicious viruses needing their ‘software’ installed. It does not. My iPhone is fine. App deleted.

### 1/5 — Missing books

*2026-03-19*

There’s no Psalms or Proverbs in this Bible for some reason. Possibly more missing but I don’t know the Bible back to front so an expert would have to look into it. But I’m most familiar with Psalms and Proverbs from when people used to hand out those pocket versions and I don’t see it in this Bible. Even the search says no results

### 1/5 — Othast

*2026-02-19*

Won’t work. I tried to open this app after I understand I purchased it.  I did download app but from their I can’t get it to open to do anything else! What would you suggest I do next??

### 1/5 — The words are misspelled?

*2025-10-20, version 1.0*

The words are misspelled which is unacceptable

### 1/5 — Feedback not working

*2025-08-23*

I have attempted 3 times to alert the maintainers of this app.
I tried to alert them that there was a problem with this app; that all the ‘one chapter’ books of the Bible have ONLY the 1st verse of each book listed.
Nothing else, and I made sure to send ‘feedback’ by the ‘feedback’ link.
All that has been given is a ‘failure notice’ saying that the feedback or ‘contact’ nessage could not be put through.
This needs to be fixed and rectified. BTW, the initial attempts sent by me are screenshot.

### 1/5 — Don’t do it!

*2025-04-27*

This app is garbage. Old Testament is mixed with New Testament. Random adds come up while you are reading. Words are spelled wrong. And how do you allow the use at 4 if you allow random apps to pop up. That is not safe for children. This is the first Bible app that I’ve ever seen with video adds that take up the whole screen.

### 1/5 — Not the Geneva bible

*2024-09-06, version 1.0*

This is not the Geneva bible. The real geneva bible has 14 more books, this is a scam

### 1/5 — Geneva Bible

*2024-07-13, version 1.0*

*2026-02-08, version 1.0*

Very grateful for this Bible show me original scriptures before the king James version🙌🏽📖👂🏽❤️🤝🏽⚔️🐜🥛🍯

### 5/5 — Straight out of the horse’s mouth

*2025-05-21*

Did Geneva Bible is the direct translation from the Hebrew writing. When you want the original writing, you go straight to the original copy.

### 5/5 — Missing scriptures.

*2024-08-24*

3 John and Jude are missing context. Was wondering why? Jude only has one versus in this app! Is it a mistake or intentional? Should I download a different app ? I’ve tried to reach out to app support through the app. It won’t let me!

### 5/5 — Really great app!

*2024-08-22*

Exactly what I need when I need it! Easy to navigate and has the tools needed to for a great Bible app. I use this often alongside my KJV Bible and Strong’s concordance.

### 5/5 — Insightful

*2023-12-24, version 1.0*

Very insightful!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-03-25*

This was exactly what I was looking for. It’s what your looking for too.

### 5/5 — Taco man

*2022-10-10*

I am reading this version because it is closer to the original before the King James Bible

### 5/5 — My breakfast in the morning, thank you Lord Jesus Christ my God.

*2022-04-06, version 1.0*

The word of the Lord is my path of my life thank you Lord Jesus Christ.

### 5/5 — Good read

*2022-01-07*
