I love how you get to speak to something so it and help and you have personalized devotionals and prayers. There is Bible Verse of the Day too! There are things you can listen too and if your struggling you can pick something you need! The reason I picked 4 star is because of the paying. Just make these apps free. There is no point in paying money to them. ### 3/5 — Fun but must pay *2026-08-27, version 2.12.3* It would be very helpful but u have to pay 11.00 Canadian ### 3/5 — Good *2026-08-26, version 2.12.3* This app is good and it creates a prayer for you, but the only bad thing is that you have to pay which I don’t understand why people have to pay to get closer to God ### 4/5 — Sarah *2026-08-23, version 2.12.3* Great app but making people pay to be with Christ is wrong we like to be with Christ not pray to pay for haven to walk beside us that’s just messed up. ### 4/5 — I like this app *2026-08-21, version 2.12.3* It is good, but you have to pay just for entering in the Bible. He never said he had to pay, but it’s a good app. ### 5/5 — A Must Have *2026-08-21, version 2.12.3* A bible app that does not forcefully flood you with unnecessary notifications that don’t benefit you. This app does an amazing job of bringing you closer to prayer and understanding of where god is in your life today and in general. Love this app and have no problems at all paying whatever for this subscription. ### 2/5 — Pay To Know Christ *2026-08-20, version 2.12.3* The questionnaire at the beginning of the app was cool - AI powered answering and giving a computed prayer.. But I havent even attempted to use the app and a “free trial” pop up comes every time I try to re-open it. Why should I have to pay for something that apparently is supposed to help me get closer to God? 6.99 after the trial at that. and from other reviews its just scripture reading. I can just read my Bible and continue going to God personally for that. Not even worth the hassle to try and pay every week for what? extra perks? that doesnt help me get into heaven ### 5/5 — Best app ever!! *2026-08-19, version 2.12.2* Having a relationship with God is super important! With this app it provides, the Bible, talking with Haven if you don’t understand, or just have questions. It’s such an amazing app. It has gotten me closer with God and I am very grateful for it! ### 2/5 — Kinda bummed me out *2026-08-19, version 2.12.2* I was looking forward to this until I found out the app wants me to pay $6.99/week after I took time to answer some deeper questions about myself… ### 3/5 — Please make the basics free AT LEAST *2026-08-19, version 2.12.2* I love this app! I read scripture everyday and it’s helped me stay on track and it has lots of good features. The only let down is the pay wall, I believe everyone should be able to praise God for freeee! great app, but I’m not paying when the Bible app is feee. ### 3/5 — Why do I need to pay *2026-08-19, version 2.12.2* I didn’t even want to continue because why do I need to pay to be closer to god there is a ton of there aptitude could rather use but if this app changes and become free I would totally use it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-08-29, version 2.12.5* You use to be able to use this without paying , why do I have to pay monthly to grow my relationship with Gof ? ### 1/5 — not worth the price *2026-08-28, version 2.12.3* i’ve seen many people online advertising this app and saying it was “free” i was about to go inside the app thinking i will be able to understand Jesus’s word better but turns out it costs a $10 subscription, im honestly disappointed, if your reading this, please buy a real bible, it will be more worth it than this for the same price ### 1/5 — Annoy because paying *2026-08-27, version 2.12.3* When I have this app at first time this never ask me to paying then suddenly this app start ask me to paying for faith? This not help people grow up be Christian. I am not happy with this to paying for faith and please remove paying lets people use this app for free ### 1/5 — Ridiculous *2026-08-22, version 2.12.3* I really want a connection with Christ and it seemed like a place that would give that but unfortunately it’s forcing payment on a relationship with Christ when I’m sure enough people use it to make a free version. I also went to read terms and conditions and it couldn’t open the site. Worth it if you have the money ig. ### 1/5 — price😢 *2026-08-22, version 2.12.3* 6.99 a week ### 1/5 — How do you delete the subscription *2026-08-21, version 2.12.3* The app is terrible, you can only use it if you pay for it. And it doesn’t show up in my subscriptions so it keeps making my account go into the negatives because I can’t figure out how to get rid of it. It’s a waste of money. Nobody should pay to get closer to God.. ### 1/5 — Subscription require *2026-08-21, version 2.12.3* i don’t see why there can’t be a free version where i can just read the bible and not have all the extra features. Jesus>money ### 1/5 — Don’t Download *2026-08-20, version 2.12.3* This app should be free. It’s meant to teach people how to connect with God spiritually and the fact that I’m profiting off of it is disappointing. The app doesn’t even speak out loud. You have to read it so you can’t use it while driving and you can’t have a real connection. Pick up a Bible and find a pastor. It’s better that way. ### 1/5 — Not for me *2026-08-19, version 2.12.2* We out here struggling to pay things, yet the word of the Lord has a price. No thanks. The Father didn't create money that's the evil one. ### 1/5 — Pay *2026-08-16, version 2.12.2* You shouldn’t have to pay to to get closer with god ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Noemí *2026-08-28, version 2.12.3* Díaz ### 5/5 — Haven *2026-08-28, version 2.12.3* Thank you for helping me get closer to Jesus and God thanks overall I love this app ### 5/5 — Haven *2026-08-27, version 2.12.3* Vary good bible app ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-08-26, version 2.12.3* This app changed my life forever ### 5/5 — Haven *2026-08-23, version 2.12.3* It helps me get closer to god and have fun ### 5/5 — The best *2026-08-23, version 2.12.3* It’s going so good ### 5/5 — This is a great app *2026-08-22, version 2.12.3* This is helping me get over my troubles and brings me closer to god ### 5/5 — I recommend this to everyone! *2026-08-22, version 2.12.3* This is my first day on Haven and I’m already feeling a stronger relationship with God.
