We've added the missing books in the new version. Thank you for your honest feedback — and you were absolutely right! We're happy to let you know that the full Orthodox canon, including all Deuterocanonical books, has now been added to the latest version of the app. We truly appreciate your patience and hope this update brings you a richer and more complete experience with Scripture. ### 1/5 — Bible is not complete *2025-04-09* I counted 66 books in the bible part of the app. Why call it orthodox and say it has the bible when you only offer a part of the bible? Just call yourself protestant. Now i feel deceived and like i dont know what i can and cant trust from this app. I was excited to read some new things and explore but i think i will just delete, i dont need any confusion theology-wise. Just call it protestant or specify you only offer the protestant version of the bible, that was the main reason for me downloading. I wasted my time :( **Developer response:** We've added the missing books in the new version! Thank you so much for your honest feedback — we truly appreciate it. You're absolutely right: the initial version included only the 66 books of the Protestant canon. We're happy to let you know that this has been fully addressed! In the latest update, the app now includes the complete Orthodox Bible — all 76 books of the traditional Orthodox canon. We hope you’ll give it another try and discover the richness of the full Scripture as preserved in Orthodox tradition. ### 1/5 — No longer free *2024-12-28* Once downloaded have to either subscribe yearly or monthly to access. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concern and want to clarify: the app now includes a subscription in order to support continued development and new content — but many sections still remain free to access. If you previously made a purchase, please tap "Restore Purchase" to regain access. And if something isn’t working as expected, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to help and want to make sure everything works smoothly for you! ### 2/5 — Doesn’t show fasting days *2025-05-21* Love the app a lot. I notice that it does not recognize Wednesday and Friday fasting days which clearly they are. The app just says “not a fasting day” which it is. This needs to be updated to show for accuracy **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind feedback! You're absolutely right — in Orthodox tradition, Wednesdays and Fridays are generally fasting days, and our app should reflect that. Currently, the app primarily checks for major fasting periods (like Lent), and doesn't yet flag regular weekly fasting days unless they fall within those larger fasts. We're already working on updating the logic to include standard Wednesday and Friday fasts, except on days when fasting is not required (like Bright Week). Thank you for pointing this out — your feedback helps us improve! ### 4/5 — Modern English? *2026-03-04* Love the app! Thank you for this wonderful gift. Is there any way to choose modern English in the app? If not, will it ever be provided? **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your feedback! We currently have no plans to implement such features. ### 5/5 — A Blessing *2026-02-09* I didn’t think I would use this very often, but I use it almost everyday. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words!
