User reviews

Very cool app

This is a really cool app, and I think it could help a lot of people. I do wish there were more Bible versions on the app, though. For instance, I read the message Bible version, because nothing gets lost in the words. It would be nice if that version was included.

Response from developer

So glad you like the app. In order to include The Message bible I would need an xml or json file with the entire bible to include in the app. I have not been able to find a version of the Massage Bible. I am also going to rewrite this app and hope to do that this coming year. Thank you for the review.

Spoken Verse

Spoken Verse, latest available.Can you provide instructions to command a book like 1 Kings, 1 Samual, etc. It is not clear to me how to request books like that.

Response from developer

Spoken Verse is not designed to read an entire book at a time. However it can read a chapter at a time by just speaking the book and chapter. You can read an entire book but currently only a chapter at a time. Sorry for any misunderstanding. There is a pause and resume button if the chapter is long (ie, Psalm 119). Some books are very long and difficult to read at one sitting (ie, Psalms). What is the best solution?

Amazing app!

This is such an amazing app for reading bible verses, either by verse or by chapter. Plus with it being totally accessible, it’s very easy. Congratulations on making this amazing app for looking up bible verses using your voice and navigational buttons which are clearly labeled with VoiceOver totally accessible. One issue I’ve discovered is voiceover is rooted to the internal speaker rather then the earphone.I think it’s a bugg. Could you look into resolving it in next or future update? Overall, excellent app.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your excellent review. If headphones are plugged in, the app appears to work fine. If they are unplugged the app reverts to the small speaker (used for the phone). You must reboot the app, completely shutdown and restart afresh. Then the big speaker works again. Not sure why? Is this the problem you are referring to? Thank you again. I have added a pause and resume button to the new update. Any other comments to make app more usable? Thanks.
