I Want to Like it … MORE

I want to like this app more than I do. There are just some quirks I have been experience and some improvements I think need to be made. I find note taking to be the most challenging. If I highlight something I cannot take a note … it doesn’t give me that option. Clicking certain areas of scripture cause the app to close. I cannot highlight text with my mouse or touch pad … I have to double click a word and then use arrow keys to highlight. When I copy a paste I get that annoying church of text that tells the world this was copied from the Lutheran Study Bible, which I then have to delete. These things make using this app very inefficient. I am actually considering finding another app without a subscription … not sure if it’s worth it.

TLSB App

This is truly one of the best apps I’ve ever used. The links and ability to traverse through them and back again with memorization, notes, and articles are phenomenal!

No offline capability?

How is it that this will not work offline?

Too long to open

The paid app regularly takes between 10-20 minutes to open. While I enjoy the footnotes and commentaries, I find myself oftentimes opening up another ESV Bible app for the sake of convenience.

Helpful

The search feature is very, very helpful. And the text is presented in an accessible, understandable way. Thank you Concordia
