Urgent changes need
I’ve had this app for years, it’s been one of my favourites!
With the recent update we have seen a new feature allowing us to visibly highlight verses, thank you! So helpful!
The update also has created some short comings, please can you change them for a better experience for phone users:
- Scrolling between chapters, was a nice slide, you could see where you were going, now it just jumps and is hard to control!
- I suffer from Dyslexia and the mono-font style text that was used before made reading so much more easier, helped me read my Bible with ease, this is the only app that has catered for Dyslexic people!
- The verses followed along highlighted as David read aloud, it was very easy to follow along and pause so I could reflect. So very helpful due to having dyslexia my eyes would easily skip lines, having it highlighted makes following the words so much more easier and enjoyable!
- When you press the play button, it plays where you were last at rather than the chapter you’ve selected, you have to manually click on the verse and tell it to play, causing a hinderance.
My thoughts are if you make the app as easy to use, not only people will want to use it, but will encourage others to read the Bible more as it’s easier to access!

Mr
This app won’t do anything
What have I got todo to open it’s?

As a VoiceOver user, very disheartening
For a VoiceOver user, it is being generous for me to award two stars.
The following things were not accessible to me at all: – Apart from the navigation bar at the bottom, almost everything else was in accessible. I could not start the menu. I could not change books without unloading the app and reloading.
If you are blind or a voice over user, this app is not for you.

Great potential but falls short
I agree with all the challenges reported. The reading and emphasis is great but text does not follow reading for long and loses altogether when phone goes into battery save mode.
The highlighting when I’d does follow is hard to see. Moving forward or back is clumsy. At end of book, it stops and now does not automatically move to next book. I use it when driving so the lack of following or of changing books is a real issue esp on a long journey and across the shorter books.
I have raised the issues repeatedly by email, and to no avail. Come on guys, to a programmer this is not rocket science. You need to do better….

Okay but with missing basic features
Thought I’d give this app a go as an affordable way to have access to NIV audio Bible offline, but the lack of ability not to skip/rewind audio is very frustrating! The only options are to skip/rewind a whole chapter or to go into the app and then select a verse to play from. Quite disappointing given that this is a feature in pretty much every other audio app.
Developers, can you please add this basic feature? That would make the app so much better! Thanks
