What's New in HebrewBible

8.1

December 3, 2014

This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included. Minor fixes. Note: A number of people have installed my Hebrew Bible app and have said that they just see a "blank" screen when opening the app. This doesn't seem to be happening to everyone; however, if you do experience this issue, it is easily resolved by selecting a Bible "version". Just follow the steps described on the HebrewBible Support page.

Buggy!

The iPad app is very buggy: shuts down spontaneously, hard to close, hard to navigate. The app on my iPhone works well

Zu instabil

An sich ist es eine tolle App, aber mit viel zu vielen Bugs. Immer wieder stürzt die App ab oder das schalten von einen Kapitel zum nächsten funktioniert nicht richtig. Wäre das nicht da wäre die App super.

Good tech support

I had an issue with the program on my iPad. I wrote the developer and received a helpful response the same day. Thank you.

Eh

When I attempt to highlight a letter it forces my app to close!!!! Every. Single. Time!

Garbage

Don’t waste your time or money on this app. It would work for only a short period of time.
