Last update kind of ruined the experience by not remembering where one leaves off in your progress but I have been assured this is being fixed, so please don’t rate on this hiccup. As of March 30th we are still waiting for the fix. ### 2/5 — Useful features removed *2026-03-13, version 11.1.1* The quality of this app has gone down, way way down. Where’s the resume function for videos? I really really needed this function which I used daily? Oh, let’s just take it away. Next: auto rotate is DREADFUL. Far far far too sensitive. ### 2/5 — Code not working *2026-01-28, version 11.0.0* When you enter the website to activate it gives you a code BUT it does not give you anywhere to put it. It offers to enter your email and password and then tells you it’s not valid. It’s the same one I’ve been using for years tried it a couple of times it’s saved in my password, so you go around and around and get nowhere very very very frustrating. ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-01-25, version 10.000.1* Love it ### 5/5 — Sunday morning service *2026-01-25, version 10.000.1* God has blessed this entire service to His Glory and I’m so grateful to be able to receive this through SBN. ### 5/5 — I listen to SBN all the time *2026-01-25, version 10.000.1* The Holy Spirit led us to SBN have grown in the Lord from message of the Cross God has blessed us for giving to the ministry ### 5/5 — Frances and Friends *2026-01-21, version 10.000.1* God Bless you all and thank you for the wonderful network, I have grown leaps and bounds in my Christian faith and walk with the Lord. Frances and Friends provide very valuable information and Biblical teachings every thing I need is on SBN. I am a Media member and pray for you all. Love and God Bless, Judy Martin ### 5/5 — Saved *2026-01-11, version 9.100.1* Frances,Jill,and all of the singer’s are my favorite , and that includes Jane. The best speakers are Joseph, Gabriel and Josh. I do like Lauren and John but sometimes they get too loud. ### 5/5 — Awesome Church *2025-12-23, version 9.100.1* Great Worship, outstanding work, anointed Biblical teaching ### 5/5 — You Can’t Top SBN With Anything of this World. *2025-12-05* SBN has the best preachers, musicians, singers, and programs in all the world, hands down. Nothing can beat the anointing of God! And these folks are anointed of God! They are careful to invite others who are anointed as well. When you are listening to SBN you are listening to a little bit of heaven and the anointing rolls over and over your mind, body, and through your soul. The Holy Spirit speaks to you through the ministers and their teaching. I have learned what I didn’t know but knew was missing and that is the message of the Cross. I mean the full understanding that goes beyond the first step of Salvation and Sanctification at the moment you get saved. I’ve always in heart new there was something more and now I know what it is. You can know too if you listen to understand and not to retaliate. Just sit back and let the anointing take hold so your heart can hear the message these preachers and teachers are sending you. Is there a balm in Gillead? Yes! It is Jesus Christ and Him crucified just as Paul preached and SBN is spreading that same message. O taste and see that the Lord is good! He wants to be good to you. O too know Him should be our hearts cry and is mine. Let the ministers of SBN extend this massage to you. You will never regret it! ### 5/5 — William smith *2025-12-04, version 9.100.1* I love listening to this church I have learned so much listening to all 3 of the swaggarts ### 5/5 — Best Holy Programs *2025-11-29, version 9.100.1* Love It ### 5/5 — Blessed *2025-11-26, version 9.100.1* Such a blessing to be able to view SBN on my phone.

I attend a local church regularly so I watch your services from time to time on SBNNOW. I started watching A Study In The Word on SBNNOW as well. Then I started watching Frances & Friends. It seems that I am on SBNNOW several hours each day. Thanks for making it available. Keep up the great ministry. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Please Fix your app *2026-07-08, version 11.1.2* I get a white page when I try to access your app. I just got a new iPhone.
