Can I Edit the Bible passage.
I thought I had found the right lectio divina to journal, but I cannot edit the passage. I get a different passage every day from a group I am in doing the lectio Divina and this app it’s almost perfect, except it will not allow you to edit the Bible passage. Please change it to be able to edit the Bible passage.

Unresponsive
I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the app over the last week but, a couple days ago, upon opening the app, I was presented with the sign in screen. The app will not accept my password and when I click “forgot password” and request a reset link, there is an “unknown error” message that appears. I have tried multiple times over the last few days. I also tried to click on the “app support” link from the App Store but that link did not work either…any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Great app
I am finding this app very useful wile I’m finding my way in Lectio. I had no trouble at all registering and signing in. One small suggestion is to disable screen lock when the timers are running, because at the moment if the screen locks it pauses the timer which extends the time indefinitely. Other than that I’m glad I found this app. It’s especially good when I cant decide which verse to use for my lectio practice.

Cannot edit bible passage?
I want to love this app. But I am getting ready to do an Ingnatian Retreat where they give us specific bible passage to reflect on using Lectio Divina. I’ve tried to edit the provided passage to accommodate the passages I need to reflect on but that seems to be the only thing that cannot be changed in the journal entry. I am able to look up another passage to read, but it will not document that new passage in the app, it goes right back to the default passage for that day. I completely value the passages that are auto populated for those who need help knowing what to reflect on to keep up with a daily routine, however, I will have to resort to using a simple journaling app so I can insert and document my own passages until this app allows the opportunity to edit the provided passage. I hope you are able to make this happen, because there is great value in this app... except for having to be tied to specific passages each day 😉

Love the app!
I’m so glad this is free now. Thank you for making it available for free. I love this version because it connects right with the passage. The printed journal does not have the Bible verses in it so you need your Bible plus the journal. This is really great and easy to take with you wherever you go!
Exactly what I was looking for
Love that I don’t have to carry a journal around. Everything I need is in the app.
Yasss!
I've been using the hardcopy version of lectio for a few years and wasn't sure how a digital version of this would be but man, it's been a great alternative when I'm on the go. It's sleek, convenient, and allows me to start my days in a great reflective space. And I love how this app saves my reflections so I can pull them back up whenever I want to review them. Such a blessing!

A few bugs
I love how this app is helping me and so many study and spend time in Gods word. I only gave this 3 stars to get developers attention to fix small bug. The timer to spend time at the beginning and end does not work. It seems to pause if the phone goes on suspend or alert comes in. I’ve tested it. I would imagine this would be easy to fix. Keep up the great work and God bless.

Also unable to sign in
You cannot create a new user, only sign in with an existing account - no instructions or section to create one though!
App promising but couldn't register
I think this app could be great, but it's there no way to register as a new user or as a guest on the app? Didn't see it.
Unexpected Cost
This looks like an excellent app for guiding the practice of lectio divina. I wish, however, that you had been up front about there being a $10/month fee. I’m currently in seminary, living on a pastor’s salary, and have a family of four. I understand your need to cover your costs, but I cannot take on any new costs at this time. $10 isn't asking much, but it is more than I can currently shoulder.
Update: thank you for your response and the added information. $1.99/month is much easier on our tight budget.

Change of 2 stars to 4!
My frustrations with this app were answered by the developer within 24 hours. The directions were clear and easy to complete. I am impressed enough to change my rating!
Subscription interface
I agree with the other review below about having to subscribe for an account through a website rather than directly thru the app, as most other apps do. And that I cannot find a way to contact anyone about my subscription, cancellation, or other - no “contact us” link to be found (red flag, IMO). I’d very much like to use the app, but this policy makes me say no thanks. Hopefully I can obtain a bound and printed journal in the future. App is a good idea, but subscription method is a no-go.

Bad UX Choices
It is really inconvenient to not be able to sign-up through the app itself (you have to go to the main website), but it is the manually entering in my credit card information, which gives me pause. There’s no way to ensure that my information is protected (at least from the perception of the interface). I understand your cutting down on costs by not using a middle man, but I honestly think that choice will kill the app before it even starts, which is sad because the idea is great!
I am more than happy to pay the monthly subscription, but I would rather do it through something like Apple Pay for 1) ease and 2) ensured security of my credit information. It is also easier for me as a user to manage in terms of my subscriptions.

Can’t access app
Disappointed that I can’t access the app. It tells you you need to subscribe to access to readings in app but 1. doesn’t let you create a login and 2. Doesn’t give you an option to use the app without a login.
So I have no idea how somebody can use this app?
Worked it out...
So, you have to go to the website and hand over your credit card details without knowing if the app is any good or the provider legitimate. It just seems to be a workaround to avoid paying the AppStore.
And after all that, I’m not feeling like exploring Lectio Divina through this app.

Unable to sign in
Can only find log in/sign in but no where to sign up as a new user!
Love this App!
I am pleased with this app and it’s user friendly interface. For someone who does everything digital and archives digitally it’s a step in the right direction of keeping my daily study easy to access from my phone or computer!
Great Daily Devotional
This is a great app for doing a daily Bible study devotional. The Lectio Divina process works well to help prepare you to study and put you in a place to listen. I like that all my thoughts are saved on my phone and I can go back and review them easily.
Wonderful app!
I love that it saves everything I journal and has a calendar to look back at dates and easily review past entries. The built in timer is a great feature as well.
