### 3/5 — Mid

*2026-01-14, version 3.1.8*

I love this app but it’s very hard to navigate and the Line Upon Line series makes no sense and is out of order. It’s very confusing

### 2/5 — App issues

*2026-01-10, version 3.1.8*

Though the movie content is great, the app has issues loading movies. You shouldn’t have to wait several minutes and keep closing and reopening app to watch a movie.

### 3/5 — Freezing up at sign in

*2025-12-02, version 3.1.7*

There’s currently something wrong with the iOS version app.

### 2/5 — Love the content when I can access it

*2025-09-07, version 3.1.4*

The content is great. Unfortunately, the app will randomly crash when going to some of the titles and it changes every day. Also, my kids are blocked from kids content when I have the filters on. Even if all that is filtered is anything PG-13. Some shows won’t even load.

### 4/5 — Glitch

*2025-05-13, version 3.1*

This app has a great selection of movies and shows. However, it often glitches and when I press on a show and try to scroll down it won’t let me. This is quite annoying and I constantly have to be leaving the app and coming back for it to go away. Other than that it’s a great app to access a lot of amazing shows.

### 4/5 — Glitches

*2025-05-11, version 3.1*

It glitches lots when trying to start a movie

### 3/5 — Ideas to add

*2025-04-18, version 3.0*

No contact button is on the app, which is really a let down. 

Also wish the series Animated Stories from the Book of Mormon was on it, or at least to purchase it digitally.

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2025-03-02, version 2.9*

I got rid of them but they still try to take money out my account.

### 1/5 — TRY FOR FREE:

*2025-02-22, version 2.9*

WHY does it say TRY FOR FREE but #obliges one to purchase a subscription plan before trying it out 🤷🏾⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

### 3/5 — Bad app good content

*2025-02-20, version 2.9*

App always crashes while listening to audiobook Bible stories and resets the story to the beginning. Some audio stories stop with 5-10 minutes left and you aren’t able to finish and just have to go on to the next one

### 1/5 — I don’t recommend this business

*2025-02-06, version 2.9*

Terrible customer service & policies. Had no idea I was being charged, they don’t give any notice or emails nor do they offer refunds.

### 2/5 — Caption/subtitle/Full screen

*2025-01-05, version 2.9*

Good movies but I prefer apps with captions and full screen options

### 1/5 — Too many errors in the app

*2024-12-05, version 2.9*

I would love to love this app however there are so many errors in it, and you cannot find movies that are being advertised. The search menu does not work at all. I don’t think I will be continuing service after the Black Friday. Deal is over. Unfortunately.

### 1/5 — Haven’t been able to access the app for the last 2 days

*2024-08-25, version 2.8*

Im mot sure what’s going on but the app has not been loading for the last 3 days. When I open it only has the words “who’s watching” and a blank screen and “edit profiles” in green. Nothing is appearing, its the latest version of the app and I am on the latest version of IOS so I don’t know what’s happening.

### 2/5 — No way to log in on my Apple box with Apple login

*2024-08-25, version 2.8*

I was able to download the app on my phone and sign up, but I have no way of logging in through my Apple box and connect to to my Apple login, which is why I’m giving this a low rating because I can only watch this on my phone and not my TV

### 1/5 — Major fixes needed for casting

*2024-08-25, version 2.8*

Trying to cast from my iPhone to TV. The movie stops and restarts when I turn on the captions, or turn up the brightness or turn up the volume. I cannot watch it because the screen is too dark. My TV is on Maximum volume. And I can’t even turn on the captions to read it.

### 3/5 — Still charging MONTHS after cancellation!!!

*2024-07-28, version 2.7*

So annoyed at how this company has been silently charging me for over a year without ANY notice!!! I canceled this in May of 2023 and have emails to prove my request to cancel because the prevent you from having any control over your own subscription. Just found out today they w been charging my credit card this WHOLE TIME!!!!!

The content looks like it's improved a lot since last year however I'm beyond angry at their business practices. Nothing trustworthy about it a company that holds your credit card hostage and prayers you with  constantly for reviews or to resubscribe even though they're already bloody charging you behind your back.

### 1/5 — Randomly Stops Working

*2026-08-03, version 3.2.3*

We love the platform, but the app is not working. I will select a movie, start watching, then shortly into it it will either stop playing the movie, or start playing a completely different film. I’ve reached out to support, but they have not responded. Now they just have a bot taking tickets.

### 1/5 — Paying for Nothing

*2026-01-23, version 3.1.9*

It has been forever since I have even been able to open this app. I think I’m going to have to cancel my subscription.

### 1/5 — Apps a scam

*2025-12-18, version 3.1.8*

Don’t download it, it’s a scam. They charge never stop charging you even after you cancel

### 1/5 — Love the content when I can access it

*2025-12-07, version 3.1.7*

The content is great. Unfortunately, the app will randomly crash when going to some of the titles and it changes every day. Also, my kids are blocked from kids content when I have the filters on. Even if all that is filtered is anything PG-13. Some shows won’t even load.

Also, they have it so if you have a firewall or use a VPN (even if the VPN is set to the same state) that it doesn’t load. In this day and age internet security is huge and they want me to be vulnerable just to watch their shows.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2025-10-10, version 3.1.4*

I have tried to open up the app for months, and nothing opens! Please help and fix this!

### 1/5 — Missing Content

*2025-08-17, version 3.1.3*

We have a family streaming service. When we were living in Utah we could access the Book of Mormon content. Our family moved to Texas and the rest of our family is still in Utah. However now we can’t access any of the Mormon specific content. No idea what happened. And now I’m trying to uninstall and reinstall and the app won’t let me login, like it literally will not let me push the login button, no feedback at all.

### 1/5 — Be very careful

*2025-04-27, version 3.1*

I canceled my subscription before my free trial ran out.  I am STILL BEING CHARGED $9.99 A MONTH. 
I have called, I am promised it won’t happen again, it is still happening. 
THIS IS THE 5 MONTH my credit card has been charged after cancellation!!

### 1/5 — March 2025 ROKU app major issues

*2025-03-17, version 3.0*

Love this movie app.  It’s just not working this month on the Roku tv app

### 1/5 — Stole my money

*2025-03-14, version 3.0*

I subscribed in Apple. It did not give me access to the videos. I contacted customer service. Nicole in LS customer service was only interested in getting me to subscribe directly through them and not Apple so they can make more money. I never got anything for my money, nor did Apple give me a refund.

### 1/5 — FIX THE AUTOPLAY BUG ALREADY!

*2025-03-03, version 2.9*

The app has a bug that has been where it will cut off the end of every video so that it can autoplay the next one.  There is no way to turn autoplay off. 

Either remove autoplay, or fix the bug. This has been going on for years!

### 5/5 — Help

*2025-11-27, version 3.1.7*

Will not let me sign in. Using saved password but says it’s not correct.  Sent for a code but never came

### 5/5 — My kids love Living Scriptures!

*2025-05-17, version 3.1*

I got the app on a whim, had my kids watch it a few times, and before I knew it they were turning it on themselves and not just on Sundays. There are different shows/videos that they love, they learn about the gospel, and stay up on Come Follow Me. When they watch they learned tons, they are entertained, and laugh ,and find it funny too. I can’t say enough good things about this app and then uplifting options it has.

### 5/5 — Love Love Love

*2025-04-05, version 3.0*

I’ve had a membership for MANY YEARS now and will forever be a LIFETIME member!! It’s the BEST!!!

### 5/5 — Por favor, melhorem

*2024-02-08, version 2.6*

Não é dublado. Não tem legenda em português. E não roda na smart tv

### 5/5 — Great for the whole family

*2024-01-05, version 2.5*

We all love it. There is something for everybody.

### 5/5 — This app is awesome and brings back so many memories

*2023-01-16, version 1.98*

I remember when I was little, I used to watch Helen Keller on living scriptures over and over, and also Alma the younger. I still watch episodes from time to time, and hope other people do, too! This app is totally awesome!

### 5/5 — Need to continue 7min Line Upon Line Videos.

*2022-09-27, version 1.94*

We have loved this app. But the primary purpose of the app for us is to watch the 7 min Line Upon Line videos. They are amazing and so well done. I learn something new in each episode. The last 2 weeks there has not been a new 7 minute Line Upon Line video. Instead you have put on the full Old Testament Animated stories. We are so disappointed! We used this while teaching my small primary class and my weekly FHE with my family. They are the perfect length and packed full of information and humor. Intriguing and interesting to kids and adults alike. I hope that you can bring it back ASAP. I don’t think I will keep with the monthly subscription without the Line Upon Line Series.

Update, Sep 2022. It looks like they just took off three or four weeks. They are back on with new ones on almost every week.
One other note, sometimes on Sundays or Monday evenings we can’t log in, as if the entire service is down. Maybe once a month. Not a big deal. Love the service overall. Well done!

### 5/5 — Thank you!!!

*2022-07-10, version 1.93*

There is a scripture that says it all, about the mission and service of Living Scriptures:

"But behold, that which is of God invite them and entice them to do good continually, wheretofore every thing which invite them and enticeth to do good, and to love God and to serve Him is of God."

### 5/5 — Outstanding!!

*2022-05-07, version 1.91*

Love this app! Having such a wholesome streaming service for my young family is such a blessing! I’ve been watching it on my phone and streaming it to my tv! I love being able to have the kids profile and mine. I’ve only had the app for a week or so and look forward to getting to know it more. Especially the CFM resources!
It would be nice if the screen rotated to both sides while playing on my phone though. Also knowing the year the video was made would be nice. And having the duration of the video just on the info screen would be really helpful in deciding a show for my kids at a glance.

### 5/5 — I LOVE this app

*2021-01-21, version 1.78*

I love this app because it has so many great movies in scripture stories, the stores are especially great for a little kids that do not yet know how to read or do not want to read, it keeps him entertained while learning about The gospel,It also has great choices for teens and adults I absolutely love this app and I encourage everyone to get it.
❤️❤️❤️
