I downloaded this app to have it as a app to read the Bible. But, I didn’t do that until I had it for a year. And the actual verses are very short. Recommend if looking for a fun girly type app. Don’t recommend if looking for a app to really get into Gods word or ur trying to read the whole Bible. Also pls fix the glitch that has me not being able to like stuff! It’s so annoying! ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-11-14, version 1.0.9* The greatest but when I do this particular quiz it takes me out ### 5/5 — I love ReFyne! *2024-03-21, version 1.0.9* I love ReFyne. The app is awesome and a lot of fun. My favorite thing about the app is the quizzes and the recipes. It is a very good app for girls and it’s Christ centered.Oh,and did I mention I LOVE REFYNE!There are also daily devotions for girls to read and also I think that the app should have something brand new to do everyday and also more guides for being a better sibling. Overall it’s awesome and I love it. There is no better app for girls who love Jesus and want to be more like him.ENJOY! ### 5/5 — I love this app!!!😊 *2023-12-05, version 1.0.9* A few years ago my mom also bought me the ShineBrightly magazines and they were awesome. I loved that I could have fun stories and activities while also growing my relationship with God. So when they stopped making the magazines my mom showed me this app and it was really fun!!! I love the fun quizzes and the food and fashion articles. I also love the weekly devotionals and the articles and quizzes about healthy relationships and good self love. I’ve now also shared this app with me sister and we both love it! Thank you the ShineBrightly team and GEMS for help making such a great app! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2023-11-16, version 1.0.8* Hello, I absolutely love ReFyne. I love all of the devotions and Bible reading plans. I also love some of the recipes like the fox toast for example, is so cute and so fun to make it also very simple! I also love all the fun quizzes and games, also the fashion stuff is good because it’s it’s from a Christian perspective so all of its modest and good which I absolutely love. However, there are a few bugs I wanna point out whenever I click into the search function it shows a loading screen and it just doesn’t load and eventually I just click out of it because it never works. and the other thing is a couple of the quizzes don’t work like I can answer the questions and then, on the last question or in the middle of it before I get the answer the app just turns off like it just goes out of the app and I don’t really know how else to explain it.So please fix. but other than that this app is totally awesome. and you should definitely download it! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2023-11-15* Hello, I absolutely love ReFyne.

However, there are a few bugs I wanna point out whenever I click into the search function it shows a loading screen and it just doesn’t load and eventually I just click out of it because it never works also half the time when I try to items it works but it doesn’t save well. I mean it does but when I click out of the app and then come back into it it’s not saved anymore. Another thing is when I try to allow notifications. If I go out of the app and come back in it’s no longer allowed and I don’t get ReFyne notifications and the last thing is a couple of the quizzes. Don’t work like I can answer the questions and then, on the last question or in the middle of it before I get the answer the app just turns off like it just goes out of the app and I don’t really know how else to explain it.

It’s so much fun, I do have a suggestion. I think that there should be jokes to brighten a users day. I recommend this app to all the Christian girls out there! God bless! 🫶🏻🫶🏻 ### 4/5 — Howdy *2023-07-19, version 1.0.7* I would like it if you added a page of current trends to help social-media limited girls so they could keep up with the popular stuff. If it updated at least once a month that would be amazing! Otherwise this app is perfect. It’s fun, engaging, and true to Christian faith. Thanks so much!!!!❤️❤️ -Makayla ### 5/5 — I love ReFyne! *2023-06-08* I love ReFyne. The app is awesome and a lot of fun. My favorite thing about the app is the quizzes and the recipes.
