### 5/5 — KJV

*2025-01-24, version 1.4.1*

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Really good Bible app

*2024-01-17, version 1.4.1*

I have only had this for ten minutes and I really like it. Its simple, clean, and focused. I do not mind only having the one translation because I understand the developer not wanting to pay for license for other transaltions. 

I do have some complaints. There should be a way in the settings to make the text bigger. And while I understand wanting to maintain the clean and focused aesthetic, I think including other things like a side-navigation scrollbar to help find other books would be helpful. Other than the font size and minor navigation issues, this app is great and I would definitely recommend it. I also really like the logo, curious how the developers came up with it.

### 5/5 — A preliminary review to get this app some exposure

*2023-11-02, version 1.4.1*

So far Quiet Time is exactly what it should be: a minimal, readable Bible that is easy to use and even easier to read. Highly recommend. Sincerely hoping for further development.

### 5/5 — Great Bible App

*2022-04-07*

I would like to add a suggestion to add NKJV next and also a feature to make the text bigger on mac. Wonderful app. Thanks again

### 5/5 — Wonderful App

*2022-01-31, version 1.4.1*

This is the best Bible app I have ever used, and I have gone through a lot of them. What I found most discouraging about all of the other apps, is that they have adds, subscriptions, or other context added into its layout. This is not the case with this app. It’s just the words of God, clean and simple. I especially love that you can switch easily between reading and studying. I can’t recommend it enough!

### 2/5 — More versions

*2021-10-05, version 1.4.1*

This app would be perfect if it had more versions than King James. Please add NIV NLT and ESV. The app is pretty much unusable to me (and I'm sure otehrs) in this current state because even if I do use it I need to go to blue letter bible to look at NIV or NLT to make sure I'm correctly understanding the kjv on the app. So it defeats the purpose of an un-interupted bible source. I would even pay for this app if you had more versions of the bible.

### 3/5 — No Option to make text accessible

*2021-07-26, version 1.4.1*

Font is small and in the inaccessible times roman type font, with no option in settings to enlarge or change.
I wish those who do bible apps would think of those of us who have visual impairments - we like to read our bibles too.

### 5/5 — Simply Magical

*2021-03-24, version 1.3.0*

I could not recommend this app more! The seamless UI, the quick load times, the bookmarking?! (Don’t get me started on the bookmarking 😍)
What a magical experience.

### 5/5 — Beautiful application

*2021-03-19, version 1.2.1*

Such a great experience, something I have been looking for! 

Thank you.

### 4/5 — Beautiful. Hard to search.

*2021-03-03, version 1.2.1*

Downloaded for first time today (March 3, 2021). This is my favorite Bible app in approach, purpose, appearance and simplicity. Search function yields zero results when searching for book, chapter and/or verse. For example, type in “Proverbs 1,” “Proverbs 1:1,” “Proverbs 1-1” or anything similar, and it will not take you to the beginning of Proverbs. Type in “Proverbs,” and the search function yields 8 verses that contain the word “proverbs” in the text, (only 3 of which are actually in the book of Proverbs). If the search function is fixed, and especially if I can not only get to the search function by typing cmd F but also have my cursor active in the search field (so I never have to take my hands off the keys), this becomes an app that I not only will rate five stars but would also easily pay $10 for. Thank you to the developer for all the work that you have put into this app (which IS free) so far.
