My Go To App

I really enjoy listening to Sebastian’s voice reading Steps to Christ. 80% of my bedtime routine is listening to this book. God has woke me up at specific paragraphs, especially when I was struggling. I found it so comforting.
Love all of the new stuff that has been added and I like looking back at my listening history.

My only complaint is buying a lifetime membership and using my Apple ID to sign in. I can not log in from my computer due to my initial choices. Not the apps fault.

Absolutely amazing

This is truly been a blessing not only in my life but in close friends and partners like too. When I first started using it, it was great, audio was good and the content was amazing! It’s so simple to use and truly blessed from this. Praying that this spread out more and blesses other just how it has blessed me! Super affordable. Truly amazing recommend buying it and owning it. Wonderful ministry.

Love it

Thanks so much. Love it!

Love it but

It’s a wonderful app I really love listening to good quality things especially since there are so many Ellen white books I really want to read, it’s just glitchy and slow. And it’s hard to select things without it taking forever to load. Other than that love it.

Best audio app for Christian content

If you want to deepen your relationship with Christ and further your understanding of the Bible, you have to listen to Luminate.

Best.app.ever!!!!

Thank you guys so much for making this. I can only imagine the amount of work and time that went into this! Thank you :)

Wish it Was What it Was Supposed to Be

I paid $100 to have lifetime membership during the kickstarter. This app is such a great idea but the functionality is really really bad. Every single time I restart the app it starts over from the beginning. If you try to play another book. It plays on top of itself two different tracks and never saves the track I listen to. I literally haven’t used this app for the last several weeks because it’s so frustrating. Such a great idea and if they get these books fixed, I will use it all the time. I’ve submitted several requests through their HELP page and had no response. Please get this fixed, so I can listen properly🙏🙏 Thank you!

Can’t get past name selection screen

App is non-functional. Upon first open the app says it cannot process the name selection request. There is no way to dismiss the screen to enter the app. Furthermore, entering a name in and tapping return does not dismiss the keyboard unless one hits the back button.

Response from developer

Thanks for the heads up! We have been working on this issue. Hope to address in an update this month.

No support

In April I paid the $200 for a lifetime membership. I still am listed as a free member with limited use of the app. Have tried contacting them through numerous ways without any response whatsoever. Am hoping that they respond to this. I want to love this app, but it’s hard when I’m $200 in the hole. Would not recommend anybody purchase this app yet. Hopefully things get fixed soon. Great idea and free content is excellent, just needs some more work.

Hello! So sorry to hear that you didnt receive your early adopter code. Can you email: info@luminateapp.io and let the support team know? They can help quickly and get you setup!

So far so good except…

I really love this app & hope to continue to love this app. Since the first time I downloaded this app, I’ve been running into a little bit of a problem. Once I download the app I start listening to it. Then when I’m done I close out the app until next time. When I try to come back in to the app, it always takes me to a page that asks what I want to be called. I put in my name & even change my picture then try to save it, but I always get the same message saying my request can’t be processed at this time so try again later. Then I can’t move forward or backwards and doesn’t allow me to do anything. So I’ve been having to delete the app and re download it just so I can listen. Then once I’m done & exit the app again to come back in, I run into the same problem. It’s been a cycle of downloading and deleting the app, but I’m hoping this can get fixed because I really like the app. I just don’t want to keep going through this just so I can listen.

This sounds like a bug we addressed. Can you email info@luminateapp.io and we can send a bug report form and get you squared away!

Such a unique app!

I’ve been an avid audio listener since I was a child and have always been fond of listening to audio dramas (e.g. AIO), audio sermons, podcasts etc. But this app in particular….there’s nothing like it out there. The designers have thought of just about everything when it comes to the listening experience. I’m even more elated that it’s an app dedicated to one of my favorite authors. This app has been mind blowing and life changing for me, and I know it will be the same for you when you download and share it.

Thanks so much! Keep us in prayer! Keep sharing! Many more experiences to come.

Bug in New Update

When you click on nature sounds, it automatically defaults to piano.

Response from developer

Yes true. We have updated the music with guitar but some creative stuff coming with the nature sounds.

Are the other conflict series books ever coming?

I’ve enjoyed what they have so far but suspect this project has gone bust. They’ve been silent for a long long time.

I love the idea

I like the options but sometimes the music won’t come on. Sometimes it feels super glitchy. It starts me at the beginning of the book over and over again. I just want to be able to pick up where I left off. I like it but I may end up deleting it if can’t get through the book .

Response from developer

Thanks for this feedback! We do have a bug reporter in which you can show us exactly what you're experiencing and how we can replicate and fix it. https://forms.bluecatreports.com/2sTQMRCa/bug-report

No code

I created my account it then wanted me to type in a code sent to my email but I could never get it to send me the code. I looked in my spam but nothing ever came to my inbox or spam. I tried several times so if you were lucky to get a code hopefully you can enjoy the app!!
Update: developer fixed the problem quickly and I was able to access the app - looking forward to trying it out.

Beautiful App with Tremendous Promise!

This app is in its infancy but it already has different voices you can choose from to read the truth. I personally like Charlene’s voice best.

Having recently given up secular entertainment, namely video games, I was praying for God to help me find something to do with my time.

A brother from Discord recommended this app and I decided to download it. What a blessing it has been to me in my free time!

I’d love to support the development of this amazing resource financially but I don’t know how to do so…. thus for the time being I will share it with others and pray for it.

Praise God for those who have made this amazing resource!

This is wonderful to hear! You will find in our full version that you will be able to Pay-it-Forward for others to get a free month or year or lifetime access to all the content on the app. We will also be launching our non-profit fundraising for adding more languages. SO be on the look out! But definitely spread the word!

Beautiful App

With 4 voices to choose from and 5 music options, this is definitely the most advanced app for listening to Ellen White content on the AppStore.

Response from developer

This is a blessing to hear! God be praised! We hope to continue to improve the experience!

Wonderful App

I’m truly loving the early stages of this app! The soothing voices of Sebastien, and Callie are amazing. My favorite feature and I think it will make this app standout is the ability to choose the background music. Although it’s in beta, when it’s working I found the music selections like Jesus Loves me this I know while listening Gods love for Man of SC was very impactful!

Response from developer

Thanks so much for this feedback and encouragement! You are right, we are just in beta and plan to add much more! With our most recent update, you can select the music label in the audio player and it will move to the next song within the category you are listening to. So if you choose hymns and want to skip to this selection, you can! But we will continue to develop these ideas☺️🙏🏽.

App is great

Great app! It has 4 different voices and 2 accents to choose from, as well as different soundtracks to choose from. It has some bugs as it was just released, but I’m sure that will be corrected as time goes on. I totally recommend this app!

Response from developer

Thanks so much Milo! We appreciate your support and patience as we work out some bugs in our next update!
