Having the podcast to accompany the study has been such a blessing - Hearing Emma Dotter’s and her various guests’ insights on the Scriptures helps my understanding so much. We are enjoying it so much that we brought our journals and are currently listening to the podcasts each morning while we sail on a 15-day cruise to and from Hawaii! Thank you!❤️ ### 5/5 — Best devotional app! *2021-01-11* My husband and I love using this app and following along throughout the year ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing *2020-12-25* This is such a well developed and formatted devotional. One of my favorite things to help Keep me accountable and staying consistent in my walk with Jesus. This offers a bible reading every single day and goes along with its own devotional as well. Amazing. ### 5/5 — Very Life Challenging *2019-05-15* I love devotionals that challenge me to grow in my walk with Christ, and this app does exactly that. I could even see community groups going through this app at some point. ### 5/5 — Life changing *2019-01-01* Consistently being trained by God’s word has changed my life! And this devotional helps me not just stay on track with a plan, but unpacks the text and depends my understanding that leads to application. The other great benefit is the opportunity to engage with others through the comments section! ### 5/5 — Best devotional *2018-05-31* I’ve been doing JTJ for the past four years and have loved every bit of it! The first year I did it we walked through the whole bible in a year, the next year was the gospels, last year was Psalms/Proverbs & this year is the book of Romans.! Each day you’ll read a passage, have a central truth, a devotional written by a member of Watermark, and discussion questions. Before doing JTJ, I was not in the word on a daily basis and honestly didn’t understand what I was reading. Now I love the word, and understand it! So thankful for this app & Watermark! ### 5/5 — Solid Devo *2018-01-01* Thankful to have something I can rely on during the week that will point me to truth and give application. ### 5/5 — Free truth, wisdom, and hope! *2017-12-31* I have been reading this app daily for almost two years and it is life changing! I can not recommend this strongly enough. ### 5/5 — Thanks for a great app *2016-01-26, version 1.0.1* I love the simplicity of this app. Just one request... Could you add a night mode display option when reading the text. I'm up at 4:00 each morning in a low light room in the house. This option would be very helpful. Thanks to Watermark for all the ministry endeavors you tackle. I live two hours east of Dallas but use your church app resources like crazy. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2016-01-24, version 1.0.1* Hey guys, absolutely love this app. I have just one suggestion. Can you add an offline mode so that I can access the app from airplane mode during travel? I would also use it in airplane mode in normal life so that I could more easily avoid the distracting barrage of email & text messages pinging me during my Bible Study. Thanks for a great app! ### 5/5 — Add "share" *2016-01-23, version 1.0.1* Love this app! Only suggestion: please add a "share" button for social media. ### 5/5 — Legit *2015-01-13, version 1.0.1* Aesthetically beautiful, simple and elegant. This app should be on everyone's phone. Great way to read God's word. ### 5/5 — Finally! *2015-01-05, version 1.0.1* This is a real clean look and great presentation and flow. It's practical for people to read their daily devo with the body of believers now straight from their phone. Well done! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — App is not working *2025-04-13* This app was working for a good amount of time I have had it but for the last two weeks the main screen doesn’t load, if I want to check my progress it doesn’t load either. ### 2/5 — Having issues *2015-01-14, version 1.0.1* Good app. However, I'm having issues with only getting the chapters every other day. I have to uninstall and reinstall to get the chapters daily. It's annoying. ### 3/5 — Comment Button on IPhone *2018-01-13* At times, the comments button on the iPhone will take to a page that does not exist. Please fix!! ### 3/5 — Recent issues *2016-02-01, version 1.0.1* This is a great little app that I've been using for well over a year, but just since the first of the year I've had problems with it. The new entries will not load to the app, even if I reboot my phone. I have the same issues on my iPad. Was there a software change recently? ### 4/5 — Love it but..... *2021-05-24* I really enjoy this app for daily devotion. The most important part, listening to the Bible, doesn’t always work. Some days it plays and other days it doesn’t. I find this very frustrating. Otherwise it is great. ### 4/5 — Great content. Minor bugs. *2018-05-04* The content on this app is great. The layout looks great and I enjoy using it. I love it. Recently my wife and I both started experiencing issues where the devotional will stop loading new entries despite closing and restarting the app. Deleting and re-installing the app worked to refresh the entries to the latest. Wish this bug will be addressed, but other then that, I recommend this to anyone looking to spend intentional time with the Lord daily. ### 4/5 — Reminder *2015-01-04, version 1.0.1* Great app I absolutely love it but my reminder doesn't seem to work. That's one thing I was really looking forward to having is something to remind me everyday to read it. And it would be kind of nice to have it read it to you sometimes it's easier to comprehend. Other than that it's a great app ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-02-02* I have enjoyed Join the Journey. So easy to engage with and such good content! ### 5/5 — Excellent daily devotional tool *2025-01-31* It just keeps getting better! Love the functionality and intuitive UI. ### 5/5 — Daily devotional *2025-01-06* Such a blessing and wonderful daily devotional. Plenty of resources to gain additional context and knowledge of the word. The Podcast is the icing on the cake, a verbal dialogue to further gain understanding. I especially enjoy the special guests too! Huge recognition to Emma for hosting and for all involved in making this application available! ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app *2024-09-12, version 4.3.1* Helps wi tbh daily Bible reading! ### 5/5 — Great Daily Bible Reading Plan *2024-06-06* Join the Journey has really helped me stay consistent in my Bible reading. With app, I can read anywhere and that helps when I am busy. The devotionals after the Bible passages are helpfull too. Overall, Join the Journey is a great tool for getting to know God through his word. ### 5/5 — Excellent Resource! *2024-04-17* If you’re looking for supplemental info, a companion app or motivation and encouragement to start walking through the Bible, look no further. This app along with the JTJ podcast have been excellent resources providing nothing but scripturally sound teaching. I really enjoy hearing from the WM members they have do the devotionals as well as some of the elders occasionally 👌 ### 5/5 — Great Daily Supplement *2024-02-17* Thank you JTJ for putting these devotionals together with a variety of team members that share a bit of their own journey in life. The questions to ponder and the end are always right on point and meaningful for me. Most recently thanks for adding the foot notes! Cool add. Gig em Emma! ### 5/5 — Everyday since 2015 *2023-11-11* I have read and worked through The Journey every weekday since January 2015. It has been an indescribable blessing. The devo writers do a great job, the questions are thought provoking, Emma is a spectacular host, The guests have insightful and edifying observations And its all about the 800,000 word love letter the creator of the universe wrote to me and you. ### 5/5 — Where has this been all my life!! *2023-07-05* One of the best devotional apps I accidentally stumbled on. Oh how God is sovereign…. :) ### 5/5 — Life changing *2023-02-01* I have struggled with reading my Bible most of my life, I’ve started and ended a lot of plans, this one is different I think it’s because it’s a group of us reading through the Bible and Emma is awesome --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
