### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-03-20*

Would like to have a Settings selection where I can have the app come back to a pre-configured configuration. Example, I would like to order items in a followed series by oldest first. Every time I restart the app, everything needs to be configured again. If I leave the app open in the background, it stays put. But if I reset the phone, etc., everything goes back to Ground Zero.

### 3/5 — Webcast Weaknesses / iPad formatting

*2026-03-08*

If there is going to be an option for viewing a webcast, then the format needs to be supportive of viewing on an iPad.  Viewing on an iPhone is silly because you can’t see anything and it’s a better device for listening.  Webcasts need to be formatted for both devices, but if for only one, for an iPad.

### 4/5 — Auto-play from downloads not working

*2025-08-19*

I love listing to sermons on this app. However the repeat all , shuffle and auto play from downloads does not work

### 2/5 — Random Restarts

*2025-07-24, version 3.1.28*

Sermons will randomly restart after 5-10 minutes. I have rarely been able to listen to a full sermon.

### 4/5 — Sermons stop/replay

*2025-07-24*

5 minutes in or so, the sermon just starts over and plays from the beginning and does this over and over. 4 stars for the word of God and a great resource, not sure what happened as of lately

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We have worked to correct an issue in our media delivery system and hope you will find that sermons are playing more reliably for you now.

### 3/5 — Strange restarts are annoying

*2025-07-22*

As another user said, the sermon suddenly jumps back to the beginning. It has done this anywhere from 8:27 of play to only a minute or two. It may go longer, too. The only way I can get back to the point I was listening to is to find another sermon, start listening to it for a few seconds, and then go back to the one I was on. It asks if I want to resume and it goes right to the place it was playing and goes all the way to end after that. This is highly inconvenient when doing dishes and my hands are wet. Or cooking and my hands are dirty. Or napping and I have to get my glasses on and go through these steps! And it also does not allow me to scroll back and forth anymore. It stays at the final end. Please fix this app.

### 2/5 — App skips back to start

*2025-07-20*

I love this App. BUT first version's sermons were not carried forward to new version. 
Now this version the sermon starts and 2 mins (or so)  into the message it stops and goes back to the beginning. There is no email to report any technical problems so I am writing this as a review. I hope creators of the App see this.

### 2/5 — Latest update broke new things

*2025-07-12*

Can’t see progress on sermons, time stamps disappear, forward and advance doesn’t work, scrubbing doesn’t work, and my sermon randomly starts over from the beginning in the middle of listening to it. On top of that, the buttons don’t appear to be more tappable and they need to be much larger and more spread apart, especially since there’s no CarPlay version of this app. Many of us listen in our cars. We need nice, big buttons to tap for safety reasons. This review goes for SA’s Church One app too.

### 2/5 — Unfortunate

*2025-07-09, version 3.1.16*

50/50 chance on whether or not the app will work. Very glitchy. Randomly crashes.

### 4/5 — Fantastic App, But Lost Some Minor Info With Most Recent Update

*2025-03-09*

I love SermonAudio as an application, and I appreciate what they are doing for Christ’s church. It runs smoothly, is graphically pleasing, and is organized. You can find a lot of great sermons on it. I use it often to work through my church’s membership class recordings—and that’s where my problem lies with the most recent update. With the app’s most recent update, the information regarding what sermon’s I’ve listened to or not reset (I’m not entirely sure why—it could’ve been because of the update or because they signed me out). Either way, I was using the listened-to icons to keep track of how far through the membership class I was (it has taken me months to get through them, which is why the icons helped). Sure, in hindsight I recognize my method was  fairly unreliable; however, after using this app for months (maybe even a year?), I just wasn’t expecting a change. 

Still, I really appreciate what this app is doing and highly recommend it—I just wouldn’t solely rely on it to keep track of things. And, I would suggest to SermonAudio to make an adjustment to keep listened-to/not listened-to information despite updates and/or sign outs.

### 1/5 — Can’t search

*2024-11-13, version 1.2.22*

I enter a search and it brings up the results, but as soon as I try to scroll through it disappears
This makes the app unusable

### 3/5 — Please fix

*2024-10-24, version 1.2.22*

I can't t follow

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No audio

*2025-12-08, version 3.1.36*

There’s no audio again on 12/6/25.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2025-10-19, version 3.1.36*

Just make me angry on Sunday, stopped working never connects. Deleted the added. Does not matter. Satan wins gods word is silenced. Great job new trash sermon audio app

### 1/5 — Bring back the Old

*2025-10-07, version 3.1.36*

Sorry to say this but I’ve tried finding some good sermons on here but since the new app it is very difficult.  I find my self trawling through lots of rubbish when I should be listening.  Old app had much better preachers.  I want quality and it appears you are losing your way on this front.

### 1/5 — No audio

*2025-08-24, version 3.1.32*

Every week a new problem. The good news it’s no sooner fixed than another problem. 
Yesterday 8/22 had audio and all was fine. Today 8/23 no audio. Same problem on my husband’s phone.

### 1/5 — Chronology

*2025-08-04, version 3.1.30*

Your most recent sermons were uploaded in such a hodgepodge manner that it's impossible to figure out what order to listen to them.

### 1/5 — Obnoxious Restarts

*2025-07-27*

I’m so glad others are expressing this problem. For awhile I thought I was doing something wrong or that the Speaker was uploading wrong. But ALL of my saved Speakers are having repeats in their audio. I can’t speak for videos. But I have listened again to previous audios from further in the past that I’ve listened to before and all have repeats that never were in the audio recordings. This is exceedingly annoying so as to be like an attack to divert distract from the Words of God. Also, the audio “finger slide track” is inconsistent for allowing one to “slide” to different location on the audio track.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We released an update this week to address the issues with empty sermon listings in the app, which was inadvertently introduced in an update last month. We hope you'll give it another try!

### 1/5 — Followed Speakers “show no results”

*2025-07-10*

This new update messed up listings of sermons so all speaker show “no results”. 
The followed speakers in Library shows “no results“ for a listing of sermons of that speaker.

Same problem in Discover. You can see all the speaker’s sermons under “Sermons” when you click “see all”. But on same Discover page under “Speaker” when you click “see all” you get the message of “no results”.

This was not occurring just 2 days ago no problem. Same problem for my husband’s sermon audio app under different account.

### 1/5 — Awful update

*2025-07-07, version 3.1.16*

They changed the app awhile back and it’s awful now. I access sermon audio through my browser now because the search doesn’t work in the app.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2025-05-08*

Was working well till it started randomly crashing every time I click on filter to look for topics, fix pls.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2025-02-11*

Had to remove 2.0 and go back to the original SermonAudio app due to 2.0 being so glitchy, especially in the search bar.

### 5/5 — What a blessing!

*2026-04-19*

Thank you for all the work you put into this app and to all the preachers who make the time to submit sermons. As someone who isn’t able to get to church, this app has been my “ride”, so to speak, to church. Thank you and may the LORD bless you.

### 5/5 — Great app but….

*2026-03-22*

This is a really great app but I had the other sermon Audio app but I inadvertently deleted it and I was just wondering could you make this app have the same format as the old one!?  Also there are some preachers that i can’t find by the way the old app I was using was gray but it still had sa with the lines over the a!

### 5/5 — Fantastic resource for the body of Christ

*2026-03-05, version 3.1.46*

Great app. Brilliant support

### 5/5 — New App Update Works Great!

*2025-10-08*

I love that the new app shows listen count for both audio and video! Fantastic update. I wish it still set apart the more popular sermons by showing the red text listen count. For that reason, I still will use the old app. (Thanks for still supporting the old app and legacy webpage btw). I wonder if that could be incorporated into the new app🤔 either way, great new app!👍

### 5/5 — Fixed quickly

*2025-08-02*

I’m so glad the problem of random restarts got fixed so quickly! Thank you! And I will add that the app on my tv works great for the sermon videos.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We are aware of the issues with audio playback and are working to address them. We are sorry for the inconvenience and ask for your patience as we track down the problem and develop a fix.

### 5/5 — Amazing Content

*2025-05-12*

This is a trusted source for sound preaching. The search functionality is superb!

### 5/5 — Form and function

*2025-05-03*

Great app that provides tons of useful features to access awesome content. Way better than the old app!

### 5/5 — Dynamic App Worth Your Time

*2025-05-03*

This app you will go to again and again. It is simple to use, but all the material is worth listening, reading and watching. A trusted company with lots of classic and modern material.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-10-06*

Please update it tho it seems glitching out

### 5/5 — God Bless the People at Sermon Audio

*2024-02-27*

Ten Stars for all the people at Sermon Audio 2.0 who made sure in-app access to the internet was corrected.  True Christians are in command of this app and really care about not being a stumbling block to their brothers and sisters in Christ. I have tears in my ears as I write this, GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
