It is the first time I have been able to stick at reading through the Bible (I have ADHD) and I am now 62 years old! I have reached Day 34 without a break. Nicky’s teaching is really helpful and upbeat, and it makes the listening so much easier to digest and explained with useful insight, although his voice can be a little over-expressive at times and perhaps with too much repetition of the preceding passage. Unfortunately, the voice for the Old Testament passages is depressingly doleful and melancholy, making them very hard to endure at times. (Please edit with a different voice.) ‘Pippa Adds’ hasn’t really added anything for me, but some may get something from these additions. It is certainly nice to have a woman’s input. ### 5/5 — A Blessing Every Day *2026-02-05, version 24.0* The Bible with Nicky and Pippa (FKA The Bible In One Year) is the best part of my day. I love both the format and the content. The 3 short readings a day - Psalms/Prov, NT and OT - keep it moving along, but what makes this exceptional is Nicky’s teaching. He doesn’t just help me understand what God is saying - he brings God’s love and joy into my life every morning. It’s like spending time with your favorite friend that puts a smile on your face. And I love the audio. The Bible narrator is fantastic and Nicky’s humor, joy and lovely British accent make it a joy to listen to. Reading and listening to The Bible with Nicky has become an indispensable part of each day. ### 5/5 — It’s helped me with my faith *2026-02-05, version 24.0* It’s really good I listen to it everyday I fell sad when I haven’t read it I feel closer to god every day because of it this app has really helped me in my faith (I am only 11) ### 5/5 — Rabbit watcher *2026-02-02, version 24.0* Which version of Scripture is used here? It’s as it says daily reading, intersected with explanations and prayers ### 5/5 — Excellent way to start each day. *2026-01-29, version 24.0* Thank you. Andy. Manchester ### 5/5 — A great resource for going through the Bible *2026-01-24, version 24.0* I find this is a helpful way to be led through the Scriptures each day. Unfortunately it won’t let me reset the app or start from a different day. Resetting doesn’t accomplish this - on logging back in I resume from the day I was on from a previous year. It would be nice to just be able to set this without resetting the app. ### 4/5 — Great *2026-01-22, version 24.0* I love the way the sequence is laid out, it is easier for me than the way it is on the You Version Bible app, where I’m following this plan with a group. Things that would improve this app are ability to make print bigger and the ability to stop and start the read aloud function on a highlighted word. Overall, I like this app a lot and use it in conjunction with the book and You Version Bible App. ### 5/5 — Fantastic help *2026-01-22, version 24.0* Switching from old to New Testament and including psalms with an excellent explanation by Nicky with help from Pippa make this a must read for all ### 3/5 — Amazing *2026-01-11, version 23.0* This app had helped me stay on track with my reading. I have tried several times to read the bible in a year but stopped because it didn’t make sense or I didn’t understand. Nicky and Pipa have helped to explain each of the readings and because of this I am 67 days into the bible. ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2026-01-11, version 23.0* This App the THE BEST. Even though I was a practising Christian, listening to the Word of God together with Nicki and Pipa’s reflections, had opened my heart to the real presence of God. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great job with this app *2026-01-07, version 23.0* They did a tremendous amount of work putting this together. I am currently on day 177. I love Nicky’s comments and explanations. I like how you are able to read along or just listen. Just like Alpha another great job at spreading the Word. I do wish there was a way to reference a Bible book to a day for example search for Luke 3 and have it tell you to go to Day 79. I was thinking of going through and making a spreadsheet. That would be very useful in using this app for Bible studies. ### 5/5 — DOWNLOAD IT NOW! *2026-01-07, version 23.0* It makes reading your Bible straightforward! You can actually understand AND use what you learn to grow as a believer! This app will definitely help me to read the Bible in a year 😎 ### 5/5 — Great bible *2026-01-03, version 23.0* Love this bible app it is complete and awesome and also comes with the audio that you can listen whilst walking about ### 3/5 — Audio *2026-01-02, version 23.0* I have used the Bible in one year app every year since 2019 and I love it. It is the best I’ve ever used. However, the new 2026 version doesn’t seem to have an option to listen to the devotional beyond the short video presentation. It was there on January 1, but doesn’t seem to be there for any other day after that. One can still listen to the scripture passages, but not the devotional. ### 5/5 — Ich hab‘s geschafft *2026-01-01* Mit dieser App hatte ich echten Erfolg! Das Wort Gottes und die Kommentare von Nicky haben mich in das Wesen Gottes eintauchen lassen. Zuversicht und Vertrauen, dass ER da ist, ist enorm gewachsen! ### 3/5 — Bible In A Year *2025-12-18, version 23.0* I've been doing the Bible in One Year for at least a decade according to my FB posts. I'm curious why I'm having to leave my Bible app where I've been making notes for a new app I don't really have room for. Will the Bible in One Year still be available in my Bible app? ### 3/5 — Current events- should be timeless *2025-12-11, version 22.0* This is great and should be timeless. Disagree with the choice to talk about “current events” as these events have now passed. ### 5/5 — One of my favorite apps *2025-11-23, version 21.0* Love the commentary! God bless you and your ministry ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Audio *2026-08-16, version 29.0* This app will not play audio and control panel to access the audio play functions will not open. ### 1/5 — Glitches *2025-09-05, version 18.0* audio keeps stopping. No response from bug fix team ### 1/5 — App crashes every time! *2025-09-04, version 18.0* Started this plan a few days ago, worked well for 4 days, then no audio commentary, app crashed, deleted, reinstalled, wouldn’t load, reinstalled, logged in, crash, reinstalled, logged in, error message! Not great. ### 1/5 — Bible *2025-01-23, version 14.0* I want to find Bible references. Where is the Bible in this app? I’m not interested in the rest of it. ### 1/5 — Great content but can’t auto advance *2024-08-26, version 10.3* I like to listen, but impossible to use hands free. I want the option to play continuously in order to catch up or to listen to more, but the reading for the day ends and assumes I don’t want more. It requires too much hands on attention, so I often have to use another app. Please have an auto play option to reduce frustration. Sometimes we want to hear more! ### 1/5 — No sound. *2024-04-02, version 10.3* I’ve been loving it until this week, when there has been no sound. I can read it, but it’s not the same 😢 ### 1/5 — Crashed - no sound *2024-04-02, version 10.3* Today the app has lost sound across 3 devices and cannot send a bug report. Will not play ### 1/5 — Won’t load *2024-04-02, version 10.3* Used to work fine and now won’t play 🥺 ### 1/5 — Audio no longer works no matter what I did *2024-04-01* Yesterday I would have given app 5, now audio not working and it is so sad, I loved this , the audio works on the information on the conference but not since April 1 ### 1/5 — Frustration with this app *2024-04-01, version 10.3* I have done everything I can, and nobody is speaking when I play this. I have deleted the app and reinstalled the app. I have checked my volume. I have to turn my phone off and on three times. I am so frustrated. I am never going to listen to this app again. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Finding *2026-08-04, version 29.0* I’m still finding my way around this beautiful Bible. ### 5/5 — Daily Bible reading *2026-06-23, version 28.0* Wonderful daily routine with Nicky and Pippas friendly knowledgeable approach ### 5/5 — It’s the best! *2026-06-13, version 28.0* C’est tout ### 5/5 — Bible reading *2026-06-10, version 28.0* The commentary is so helpful and this app helps to make the bible easier to read and understand. Although I do still have so many questions and wish I had Nicky and Pippa on hand to ask questions of. ### 5/5 — Thank you. *2026-06-02, version 28.0* I have been following BIOY since I did Alpha in 2003. It changed my life. When I am struggling I look for a Topic that I think can directly help me and it has so often. Thanks again N&P and of course our Lord🤗 ### 5/5 — Great resource *2026-05-09, version 26.0* I am on my 6th year in a row reading BIOY. Thanks ### 5/5 — Excellent reading and commentary *2026-04-12, version 26.0* Nicky and Pippa join up the dots and relate each reading (Psalms, Proverbs New and Old Testament) to everyday life in a world thousands of years on from the time the books were written. The advice given is down to earth and relatable and relevant. Thank you so much. Will recommend to others. A* ### 5/5 — Trust *2026-04-02, version 26.0* I’ve listen to The Bible with Nicky and Pippa for the second time. I acquire new knowledge to share with people. ### 5/5 — Incredible!! *2026-03-09* This app is amazing I can listen to this every morning and I actually look forward to it! Bible reading has never been more understanding than this! Totally recommend!😊 ### 5/5 — Life changing! *2026-02-07, version 24.0* Wow Nicky And Pippa, being gods word is such an assessable way unpacking and exploring every chapter in a way ordinary people can understand --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
