Missing the text
Missing the front text part of the hymnal as well as psalms
Description
The description is misleading. Most songs that I selected didn’t have an audio file.
Great app for sure
Love it

Add written responses, please. Make keys available for modulation. I would pay $9.99 for those services...
Hymn App review
I wish it noted the hymn tune, composer, or lyricist. Which are very important when planning to sing hymns
Good but missing stuff
As a clergy person, I love having this app on my iPad. I also have a Bible app and the two are invaluable when I am on a retreat or visiting sick or home bound. That being said, I wish this app had all the pages including the Psalms, the Creeds, the Communion and Baptism services, as well as all the indices in the back which are useful when trying to tie hymns with scriptures. I know this is an “unofficial” hymnal app and maybe that’s why the entire hymnal isn’t included. So maybe this is the UM Publishing House opportunity to create an official hymnal app. It would be nice to also have an official Book of Worship app.

It's ok
It just doesn't have everything in it! It makes it frustrating
Why does it jump out of the app back to my home screen when I try to enter a hymnal number. I tried deleting app and re-download but it hasn’t fixed it. Please help

Love this app
I use this app on a weekly bases. Initially I had a problem with it but turned out to be an IOS issue. Customer service responded in a timely manner and checked back with me to make sure my problem had been resolved.
Worship Leader has some reservations.
I like the app and use it multiple times during the week. As the music minister at our church I have found the app to be very helpful, but, as others have pointed out, there are no responsive hymns in this version of the hymnal or anything else having to do with the order of worship.
My "little old lady and gentlemen friends from the places I play really enjoy singing these hymns and when I'm outside, I don't have to worry about music blowing away or out of place.

Very good app!
I got this app to help me in selecting hymns for my services when I'm preaching. What would make it great is if it had more playable samples of the hymns! Though, overall, I am very happy with it.
Great app
It's a great out that way I don't have to carry the whole him know with me with my choir music
METHODIST Hymnal
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy this app. I'd love to have some piano also, but the organ is great! Recently I sat next to a dying friend and sang to a few hymns in her last moments. What a holy time! Thanks!
Too much missing
Wish I had read a few more reviews. There are very limited audio files it says about 100 many seem missing. Also no readings, Since I purchased because I can no longer turn pages in hymnal I was very disappointed with how much isn't there.
Not bad for a partial hymnal
Only the most familiar hymns have audio files and, where are the responsive readings? I give it 3 stars; if ever the complete hymnal comes out, even at more money, I'll give it another rating. Until then, it is better than nothing but could be better.
Great (and portable) Resource
I like being able to have the UM hymns everywhere I go. It is also much easier than lugging a hymnal along with loads of music into worship service.
Outstanding
This app is great. It doesn't have audio for the more contemporary songs, but those don't set up well for a traditional arrangement anyway. I typically rearrange the more contemporary songs (like the ones by Bill Gaither or others written in the 1970's, for example) more to my liking anyway. You're more likely to find versions of those songs on iTunes. For some of the much older traditional hymns, this app is the only place I've been able to find any audio. Plus the purpose of the app is to provide the music for playing an instrument, not listening to an audio file. This app had to take a lot of effort to write because every song had to be individually charted. Definitely worth the price.

Nice but missing
Having the book available on my tablet is great but it's missing a lot that is only in the printed copy. As an example, today we were to read aloud page 885...but it is not there...actually most of these readings are not available...if I wanted to grab the book to read from, I wouldn't have purchased the app. So it is a little misleading. As for having the songs available, yes this was a great purchase.

Disappointed
Where are all the audio files???!
What I've been looking for
I've played at my dads church since I was a little kid. When I visit another church, Its is a great resource to take if I'm visiting & a church needs something on the fly. Many churches now have gone to lyrics only and do not have hymnals. Thus this is a GREAT resource.
Can't view just lyrics
According to the "help" section you can view lyrics only but doesn't show that option in settings.
