### 5/5 — Great app.

*2026-08-16, version 8.1.0*

I’ve tried some other apps. But this one is by far the best. It’s easy to set up and you have the best study resources.

### 5/5 — Holy Spirit

*2026-08-14, version 8.1.0*

I want to be closer to God Jesus The Holy Spirit. Staying steadfast praying on Him. Renewing my mind from what sin I’ve been living in. This is a good app that I can read right from my phone. Please pray for me

### 4/5 — Delete note and full page are in the wrong places!

*2026-08-13, version 8.1.0*

I love the new update in the Strong’s  Bibles, it is very helpful, especially the referencing part. There is only one update needed to make this app perfect.

Would you please move the (delete note) button, to the bottom of the function list, and the full screen to the top, where they belong? This is a very simple and logical change.

Thank you very much: God bless you!

### 5/5 — Robust, Resouding, Yes!

*2026-08-13, version 8.1.0*

Whenever I downloaded this, it seemed complicated. It's not complicated. It's very robust. I love the tag feature. You can create different tags for different topics.  Then there's the bookmarks very simple, elegant, and functional.  Are the footnotes and references are a built-in pop-up and within the pop-up and go to that verse I don't know why I didn't find this sooner!

### 5/5 — It’s exactly what it should be

*2026-08-11, version 8.1.0*

Simple, helpful, more functionality than I need. I love the lack of ads and simple presentation of the one translation. It does what it is supposed to well, not trying to be something it’s not.

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2026-08-09, version 8.0.17*

God word is wonderfully beautiful!

### 5/5 — Great study tool

*2026-08-07, version 8.0.17*

I love the way there are different places that I can refer to in the scriptures to better help me understand the word.   Most scriptures have a corresponding scripture that goes with it that breaks it down for me to say oh yeah, I get it now. I also enjoy the fact that I can switch to the different translations for comparison and clarity.

### 5/5 — Thank You!!!!!

*2026-08-04, version 8.0.17*

My Bible study lists the verses on a white board before the teaching. If I could put those verses on the app and then be able to toggle back and forth on them would be great. And maybe a button that would highlight each of the verses listed. Thank You all and God Bless your ministry.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-08-03*

Very good to read

**Developer response:** Thank you for your five-star review!

### 5/5 — Bible reading

*2026-08-02*

Overall an excellent Bible in a digital format. Easy to access and find scriptures

**Developer response:** Thank you so much!

### 5/5 — Love me some NKJV!!!

*2026-08-01, version 8.0.17*

I've been using this app for years. It's fantastic. But it does tell me there's an error when I open it. I just ignore it and keep going. But I wish it would stop popping up every time I open it.

### 3/5 — App is good BUT….

*2026-07-28, version 8.0.17*

It would be nice if it could read to me while I’m driving like the free Holy Bible app does and too, the highlight marker colors are to dull, the colors don’t highlight the verses bright enough for my vision so that could be better as well.

### 5/5 — NKJV Bible: Easy to understand translation

*2026-07-27, version 8.0.17*

I’ve no way gauge the accuracy of the translation since I am Bible scholar steeped in either Hebrew, Greek or Latin. Two things I’m sure of in reading this worthwhile translation, it is the word of God and you’ve done your best  you could in translating it as accurately from its original sources!

I appreciate your honest effort in that regard - God bless you  in your efforts that seek to glorify Him -  and thank you for serving Him faithfully in his vineyard! Amen men!!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-07-25, version 8.0.17*

I am very pleased with my NKJV Bible App.

### 3/5 — Delete note and full page are in the wrong places!

*2026-07-24, version 8.0.17*

When I pull up any of my notes (delete note) is right on top of the list of functions.

In most, I think almost all application, this function is at the bottom of the list. And for good reason.

Someone at 60 years or above, whose hands do not work quite as well as you younger folks, this is dangerous.

Sometimes I spend a long time working on my notes, putting together reference tools, and chaining together Bible passages. One slip at the top of the list, when I open it, and it’s all gone.

Full screen function should be at the top of the list. Delete note should be at the very bottom. Can you please move at least these two functions?

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2026-07-21, version 8.0.17*

I love that you can read and search offline

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-07-19, version 8.0.17*

Easy to navigate, enjoy using this everyday.

### 2/5 — Red letters

*2026-07-18, version 8.0.17*

Not a red letter fan

### 5/5 — му  ѕυggєѕтισηѕ

*2026-07-17, version 8.0.17*

### 4/5 — Two things

*2026-07-12, version 8.0.16*

First, please make it OPTIONAL to move the New Testament TOC to be put on top and Old Testament TOC to be placed on bottom when going to a book chapter verse.  For those who spend a majority of time in the NT won’t always have to scroll down all the time.

Second, please stop asking for a review every time I open the app.  Thank you

### 1/5 — Deleting app

*2026-01-19, version 8.0.7*

Don’t like your Bible app

### 1/5 — Cannot search

*2025-10-10, version 8.0.1*

The app keeps shutting down even when trying to update the app. Maybe the devil doesn’t want me to read the Bible?? Good thing I have a hard copy.

### 1/5 — Log in fail

*2025-05-10, version 7.18.5*

Please fix this. I have two devices and when I switch to the other device I get a log I failure. Then after I log I it logs the other out. My reading plan doesn’t sync. I have to do it manually.

### 1/5 — First Day:

*2025-03-28, version 7.18.1*

QC! This is no longer the Bible. I have not read much as there are missing words and phrases either at the end of one page or the beginning of another.

### 1/5 — Hard 2 Navigate

*2025-02-19, version 7.16.18*

Tap click swipe.  Freeze.  Work out the bugs

*2025-01-25, version 7.16.18*

The screen (ui) blocks part of the text. Changed font size and no fix.

### 1/5 — Difficult to navigate

*2025-01-02, version 7.16.18*

I cannot find a list of books to find the one I want to read. If you want to start at Genesis and read through you can do that….

### 1/5 — It’s ok if you like popups

*2024-12-31, version 7.16.18*

Lots of issues and lots of material, popups included. Great start though.
