I used to read this devotional for years as a small magazine over 20 yrs ago at my home church in MD USA. We moved to Bolivia to serve the Lord & received it in Spanish for our church for several years via their translation ministry in Spain & Brazil. Due to problems w/transportation & mail service here we no longer receive it which was do disappointing. We gave it out to the campesinos & other friends here in Bolivian who also enjoyed it! I was so thrilled to find this App. This devotional is still uplifting & anointed & biblically based. Iโve been receiving this App subscription for over 5 years now & it still ministers to me even though Iโve read it for so many years! Can you please develop a Spanish App? Thank you to all your ministry team! God bless you all! Pastors Angel & Lydia Salguero

Today 7/29/25 I tried opening the app to read a devotional. All I got was a blank screen. I tried going into my bookmarks, again I got a blank screen. I deleted the app and reinstalled it, again I got a blank screen.
Canโt listen to Older devotions! Audio option is MISSING๐
Iโve been a reader of this devotional for a really long time (probably 20 years) and this app is my favorite way to take it on the go! Iโm regularly encouraged by the devotions, often I think it was written just for me. They updated the share feature a while ago so that when I share a devotion with someone and they can actually read the entire thing without signing up (used to only share partial day, which was not the best for me.) I was excited when that finally changed. Especially when I read something that I know would really help a friend. The calendar has been a big help because it helps me go back and see if missed a day and during busy weeks, thatโs been a big help for me. It used to be a bit harder to find. Oh and bookmarking days - like in my Bible app - I use bookmarks constantly. Iโve kept bookmarks over the years and now I really love being to go back and read all those devotions (I bookmark days regularly.) also when they added dark mode, it really made it easier to read early in the am or late at night so thatโs been super helpful.

Love the content, but when listening to the audio, the screen will go to sleep in the middle of the audio, causing me to constantly tap my screen to prevent it from doing so.
Application should check for new content when opened. Should not need to go from Home, to Settings, which download updated content, and the back to Home/Calendar.
I like this app, I have been using for a while. With the latest iPhone update, the app stops when the phone locks, so I have to keep the phone on to hear the full message.
As of March 9, the play button no longer does the audio read. Probably a new update on the iPhone. but it is not working.
This is a very useful app and I have no issues when I do use it. However I would like some support for like a daily notification or some other integration w/ widget or other iPhone components.
The app works fine. Itโs basic and straightforward but lately the number of ads has skyrocketed! Also every time I open it thereโs an ad. I pay for this subscription so I expect not to see ads. Put them on the free version. It makes me want to just use the books instead. Please remove or reduce the ads! Iโm here to meditate on the word of god, not shop.

I am new to this app and I find it very encouraging. I love the audio version and the fact that I can sometimes read or listen together. I plan to give an annual subscription as gifts to friends.
I have to delete and upload app each day to get the current days reading?
the email version was much easier to use. If I missed a day , it was easy to catch up .I like to copy them to my notebook for future reference but the copy function is locked now. The Australian version is still great but I I may have to find another devotional service.
The reading does not update daily. Today is June 18, 2021 and the latest reading shown is June 15, 2021. This happens often. If you click on the date the calendar appears but you are not able to click on todayโs date and get the current reading.
Love the app! Until the day doesnโt advance. This just started for me, not sure if itโs because of new phone or what but no response when contacted the company last week. Every couple of days it might jump ahead a couple of days! Disappointed this was my go to in the morning. Will find something else.

When my current date doesnโt come up I turn my phone off and then back on. Yesterday it wanted me to sign in. I didnโt remember the password and it wouldnโt let me reset it. SoI tried with another email address and it came back telling me it costs $.99 per month. I know thatโs not much but when something has been free it just doesnโt seem fair. I guess I will find something else to read. I enjoyed it. I canโt always get a book from the church as it is 200 miles away.

I used to read the hard copy until a church member informed me of the app. Itโs much more convenient however it is annoying when it gets stuck on one day and doesnโt advance to the next day. This happens at least 2-3 times a month. Please fix this so that I donโt have to delete the app and reload it.

For some reason I canโt access todayโs devotional. Normally, it would automatically update but today I can only view yesterdayโs and past devotionals. When I attempt to change the date to todayโs date I canโt. The date is grayed out.
Our church has the print version with the code to enter in the app. However I canโt find where to enter the code.
