### 2/5 — Update reduces userability

*2026-07-17*

It used to be a great app I used the keyboard all the time when taking notes. However with the latest version the Bible book tiles are so big they make the app unusable, very sad. Can I revert to the previous version?

**Developer response:** Thanks, I’m glad you find it helpful.

One little trick that you can do when you selected a verse on the NWT Keyboard is to swipe up and down to quickly navigate between verses. When you ‘add’ adjacent verses, it should automatically format them like this: (Genesis 1:1-2)

Hope this helps you :)
-Henry

EDIT: Perfect, glad I was able to help. And thank you for the idea. Copying the current range of verses will (hopefully) be supported in version 2.3

### 3/5 — Lost a good feature

*2026-02-15*

Looks like they had to abandon the merger feature and removed it from the app. Quite a shame. It was really good.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for your feedback.
I'm really sorry about the merger feature. It just takes too much effort to keep it up to date at the moment. Plus, the entire design/approach I initially took doesn't sit well with me anymore and if I do decide to work on it again I'd probably change a few things about it, but sadly I'm unable to do that anytime soon. I know that doesn't solve it, but if you do have any more feedback feel free to reach out: feedback.thisisthefoxe@gmail.com

### 4/5 — One request

*2026-02-12*

Please add a button to the keyboard so I can instantly insert the displayed verse into the message I’m typing!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I've actually gotten a few requests for this and will consider adding an option for this. 👍

### 2/5 — Gave up

### 5/5 — Hey Siri…Play music on JWX

*2026-01-03*

Best thing about this app. It plays original songs hands free from Siri. I also love the new CarPlay integration. Genius!

**Developer response:** Hi, 
and thank you for the kind words and the heads up!
In fact, there’s been an update on how Siri handles user requests in iOS. Expect a new app version within next week… :)

I’m also sorry the keyboard isn’t working for you. If you want to, feel free to let me know where exactly you are having trouble: help.thisisthefoxe@gmail.com

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-12-17*

Just used and I’m in love! Did my first merge and it was sooo easy. Super excited. I’m in my 50s and maybe 4 taps total and my iPad and phone totally synched up. Thank you brother 🤟🏽👍🏽

### 4/5 — Good app

*2021-08-15*

Very useful app good for merging data files. Particularly like the NWT keyboard very useful when taking notes. It would make it even better if it were possible to look up a range of verses.
Thank you for your suggestion works well, is it possible to copy and paste a range of verses?

**Developer response:** Thanks, I’m glad you find it helpful.

One little trick that you can do when you selected a verse on the NWT Keyboard is to swipe up and down to quickly navigate between verses. When you ‘add’ adjacent verses, it should automatically format them like this: (Genesis 1:1-2)
