I’ve tried closing it and opening it again and sometimes the full devotion will appear. But most times I just waste time opening and closing the app. Fix this guys! ### 5/5 — NIV Bible 50th Anniversary Version *2024-05-09* I truly look forward to reading the daily verse and daily devotion ! They often provide insight for the situation or challenge with which I’m dealing with that day or that week. I usually read the entire chapter and not just the individual verse. I also read the inset commentaries for thoughts and related stories from others. Many thanks, YBIC, Mark ### 5/5 — NIV view *2024-03-07* I had app before and all chapters appeared of old and New Testament: that version no longer appears as vanished from app selection. On trying to download again n it comes up with some wheel method I do not like. How do I get old method that displayed a view with all chapters of Bible on one page. You could then select the book you wanted and the select a verse? ### 5/5 — Extremely Amazing! *2023-12-17* Love this app. It’s very helpful for church, but it sends a daily reminder to stop and read…which I need. I have been using this app for nearly a month, and it’s perfect. Simple to use and easy to manage BIBLE verses per our pastors messages! Thanks so much! ### 5/5 — My comments *2023-10-08* I am thoroughly enjoying this Bible Version because of the ease with which I can find a passage and also the way it scrolls when I am reading. It is very helpful and also the audio version of it is good also when I am walking and listen to it on my phone. ### 5/5 — What better to look at on your iPhone *2023-05-04* This is a great app! I know enough about the Bible to just go find parts to read and it’s renewed my interest in reading more because my phone weighs less than my good bible. I like the daily messages too. ### 5/5 — Praise the Lord!! *2023-03-14* Thank you very much for the use of this app! One of the better Word of God apps in my opinion. Elegant design and easy to use. NIV is my favorite translation. When the Lord blessed me with His Spirit I was new to reading the Word and the NIV translation , mostly , was written on my heart. In all translations I know the meaning stays the same but I prefer the NIV. Treat others as you want to be treated, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you , Love thy neighbor as thyself. You truly have by making His Word available to the Lords people! Keep up the good work! May God our Father bless each and everyone of you in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen! ### 4/5 — Good app it can be a little more study material. It would make it a five star. *2023-02-02, version 8.0.2* You can ### 5/5 — Kudos! *2022-11-12, version 8.0.2* I like the changes, makes it easier to find Chpt. & Vers. ### 5/5 — Love the new app *2022-11-03, version 8.0.2* I had been having trouble with the new Tecarta bible app transferring my notes correctly but when I downloaded this 50th anniversary app and logged in with my Tecarta user name… it transferred everything and synced them! Using them in tandem is the best way to go. I can edit the notes in the NIV 50th anniversary app and they automatically go into the new Tecarta app. ## Frequently asked questions about NIV 50th Anniversary Bible ### What is the NIV 50th Anniversary app?
