### 4/5 — Can you add more languages?

*2025-03-08, version 1.80*

Wish there are more languages.

### 4/5 — Love it but how do you highlight?

*2024-12-31, version 1.80*

Great app but how do I highlight a verse?

### 4/5 — Getting back to last passage written?

*2019-11-10, version 1.80*

Hello, I finally got around to getting this wonderful app; I ver much like how it is integrated with iMissal.  The one glaring issue I have discovered is that, say I am reading the Preface to the NT and I come to a linked passage in Scripture—I click on it and it takes me to that passage, of course, but I cannot see any way to return to the precise place I was just before?   Maybe you are all working to address that? Other than that, this is great! Thanks!

### 3/5 — Sliders?

*2015-04-18, version 1.1*

I have used this app for about two years and love it.  But for some reason the sliders no longer appear when clicking on a book.  So if I want to get to Chapter 23 I have to scroll over and over and can't get directly there.  I wonder if a fix is needed to keep up with new Apple iOS.  Without working sliders, the app is all but worthless - I hope it is fixed soon!

### 3/5 — No references or footnotes

*2014-07-20, version 1.1*

There are not any references. I like to look at footnotes and references for help while reading the Bible. Please add this in your next update.

### 4/5 — No dictionary support, otherwise a great app

*2014-01-22, version 1.1*

This app has everything you could want to seamlessly read the Catholic Bible. The way the program handles the footnotes in a pop-up box with its own back button is alone worth the price of the app. Only thing missing is the ability to highlight and define words using the iPhone's dictionaries.

### 3/5 — Ok, but only 3 stars for now

*2014-01-14, version 1.1*

This is a great add-on to iMissal at a reasonable price. But it is stuck on the iOS 1.0 world due to the out of date sliders used. 

I HATE HATE HATE the sliders used to find chapter & verse. A roller wheel or a scrolling menu would be better. 

Fix the sliders and this will be a 5 star app.

### 3/5 — Great! But....

*2013-09-22, version 1.0*

Highlighting doesn't work. Need it! Other than that it's a great app! Will change rating when highlighting is fixed.

### 3/5 — Smaller Text Size

*2013-07-18, version 1.0*

I love everything about this Bible app except for the huge text size.  Even at it's smallest setting, the text size is still too large.  Please let us make the text smaller.

Once we're able to make the text smaller, I'll update to 5 stars.

### 5/5 — IMissal Catholic Bible

*2013-02-26, version 1.0*

only had this for one day, but so far it is great. very easy to jump around and find a verse or book in the bible.  currently taking Jeff Cavins Walking Towards Eternity class and this app makes it very easy to find the many different verses needed for each days homework. well worth the money.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No support

*2025-12-04, version 1.80*

The highlight function quit working and there is no one to fix it.  They don’t support the product

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2024-08-10, version 1.80*

Such a shame, cannot navigate to settings, select texts nor see annotations as all of the above actions lead to crash on iOS 17.6.1

### 2/5 — No support

*2025-11-17*

I have had this app for ten years. The highlight feature quit working and there is no one to talk to about fixing it.  I purchased the app thinking if I paid for it, there would be support later if needed.

### 2/5 — Functional issues

*2023-11-12, version 1.80*

When viewing the tax on the top line is cut in half or not visible on some pages. This makes the app not very pleasant to use. I tried different settings, different fonts, different line spacing, but the top line seems to always be cut off by a header at the top of the page. also, the help button does not work. It brings you to a page that is not functioning on the web and therefore I could not contact the developer through the app. This was my initial impression and I have a lot more to explore but this point given the functional issues I’m not sure that I will continue to use the app.

### 2/5 — Works on iPad not on iPhone

*2021-03-29, version 1.80*

Works fine for iPad. Can’t change Eucharistic Prayer. Stays stuck on number 2. Would not recommend if buying strictly for iPhone. Needs to be repaired but does not appear programmers are updating the application any longer.

### 2/5 — Slide to select chapter does not work

*2015-05-25, version 1.1*

The slide to select chapter and verse function does not work yet. Looking forward to seeing this issue resolved.

### 2/5 — Not for iOS 8.3

*2015-05-05, version 1.1*

Loved it until I upgraded- now I can't get even get an answer. Don't buy until you do.

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2020-02-23, version 1.80*

I use this app almost every Sunday, but today is is crashing on me. Does it need to be updated for iOS 13?

### 3/5 — Update for iOS 8.3 needed

*2015-04-23, version 1.1*

Need update for iOS 8.3.
Sliders are now invisible, and you can no longer chance the font size.

### 3/5 — no syncing feature; difficult page swiping

*2015-04-21, version 1.1*

Unless I'm missing it, there's no sync feature. So if you bookmark, highlight, or write "margin notes" it's not going to carry over to your other device. And this seems to be the one issue they should jump on and correct. It's not user friendly to go back and forth from iPhone to iPad to make sure your Bibles match up. Page swiping could be improved as well; it sometimes takes up to three attempts to get to next page. There is a scrolling feature though if you want your experience more web based than book based. No noticeable issues with scrolling. These are all very straightforward things to correct, and should have been a long time ago.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-11-03, version 1.80*

Easy to use, helpful to navigate, excellent app.  Recommend it highly.

### 5/5 — Still the best

*2024-03-15, version 1.80*

I love this app and use it to get context to the daily readings. No wifi is required and it integrates with iMissal. It still works well, no annoying ad popups or someone trying to sell me something.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2015-06-19, version 1.80*

This is the best Bible app available! I love the integration with iMissal. 

Wish it had reading plans available, and I would add page turn animation as a "wish list" item, but it is overall a great app. 

Cancha make more faith based apps like this (e.g. Catechism)?

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2013-11-24, version 1.1*

I love this Bible app! It is a bit pricey but it runs very well and works like a charm. I love how it works with iMissal!

### 5/5 — What a Value!

*2013-10-14, version 1.1*

I have paid upwards of $20 for other NAB bibles and this app is very much on par with the top bible apps out there.  Great Job.  Looking forward to the iMissal integration too.

### 5/5 — Finally I have a Catholic eBible

*2013-06-10*

Awesome eBible with easy navigation.  This eBible is worth the price.  Now I will carry my own bible with me.  I love this eBible.  I really appreciate all the effort taken by the Catholic Church to develop this eBible for us the youth who always have their iPad or other electronics on hands but lack the eBible.  No more excuse for not having the Bible.

### 5/5 — Best Catholic app besides IMissal!

*2013-06-09, version 1.0*

Thank you soo much for this reader friendly app!  Does this have some color?  I can't find anything wrong with this!!!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2013-05-30, version 1.0*

This is a wonderful app that keeps Holy Scripture with me at all times.  The search feature is great and encourages me to study God's Word anytime anyplace!  Thanks.

### 5/5 — Amazing app, one flaw

*2013-04-15, version 1.0*

I love this app and I use it constantly. I like how easy it is to navigate and I like making notes and highlighting verses. My one problem is that you can't select more than the text that is on the screen to highlight or make notes on. If you try to scroll, it not longer selects anything. If that is fixed, this will, by far, be my favorite app.

### 5/5 — Awesome!!

*2013-03-30, version 1.0*

App is Great!!
