### 1/5 — Has potential but the English is mistranslated

*2024-04-15*

Did they literally do a copy paste? I speak Latin, and there are verses that when translated to English are incorrect. Very misleading.

### 5/5 — Appreciative for a Latin Bible

*2022-07-29*

I am not downloading this app for the interface; rather, I care about the Latin and English translations. This is phenomenal. I am thankful I could download it.

### 4/5 — Wonderful App very useful

*2022-04-20*

The reason I didn’t give it 5 is because it lacks a note for the Bible. I want to find out the version of English and found it out only after I searched online. A detailed note about Bible versions or at least add website link for people to research is appreciated.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-12-09*

Amazong to know exactly what Scripture tried to say! so happy. Thanks to developers

### 5/5 — Good Latin Bible

*2019-11-18*

I have used this Bible before,
 I like it very much. And this is for free, thank God for giving me this free Latin Bible,
 I love it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful Bible,
 I really appreciate it!

### 4/5 — Latin

*2018-08-23*

It would be nice to be able to slow the Latin recording.  It moves too fast for a beginner!

### 5/5 — It fulfills a need.

*2016-06-12*

I give it 5 stars, with the understanding that there is always room for improvement in the ease of use. It's fantastic and it fills a void for those who are looking for a Catholic bible with different translations. Not hard to use, but it would be nice when I highlight a verse perhaps double tap on a specific traslation and be able to read the whole chapter in the chosen translation. It would make it easy on the eyes and it could be an in-app purchase I'm willing to buy.

### 5/5 — Poeta

*2015-06-08, version 1.5*

Great resource to help Latin be read quickly.

### 5/5 — Great for Ex-Latin Students/Possible New Catholic-Christians

*2014-11-13*

Thank you so much for making this app, it is exactly what i needed towards the end of a somewhat troubling semester.
