Audio option is MISSING😔 ### 4/5 — Great content, functionality could use a tweak *2025-02-05, version 4.5* 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. ### 3/5 — Needs auto-refresh of content *2024-11-03, version 4.5* 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. ### 3/5 — Great app, needs update *2024-05-05, version 4.5* 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. ### 4/5 — Ads ads ads *2022-12-13, version 3.0.4* The app works fine. It’s basic and straightforward but lately the number of ads has skyrocketed! Also every time I open it there’s 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! I’m here to meditate on the word of god, not shop. ### 3/5 — App is not loading for daily readings *2021-08-11, version 3.0.4* I have to delete and upload app each day to get the current days reading? ### 4/5 — Daily reading update doesn’t always occur *2021-06-18, version 3.0.4* 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 today’s date and get the current reading. ### 2/5 — Works great until it doesn’t *2021-04-04, version 3.0.4* Love the app! Until the day doesn’t advance. This just started for me, not sure if it’s 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. ### 2/5 — Current date/now fees *2021-03-08, version 3.0.4* When my current date doesn’t come up I turn my phone off and then back on. Yesterday it wanted me to sign in. I didn’t remember the password and it wouldn’t let me reset it. SoI tried with another email address and it came back telling me it costs $.99 per month. I know that’s not much but when something has been free it just doesn’t seem fair. I guess I will find something else to read. I enjoyed it. I can’t always get a book from the church as it is 200 miles away. ### 3/5 — Need to correct glitches *2021-01-08, version 3.0.1* I used to read the hard copy until a church member informed me of the app. It’s much more convenient however it is annoying when it gets stuck on one day and doesn’t advance to the next day. This happens at least 2-3 times a month. Please fix this so that I don’t have to delete the app and reload it. ### 4/5 — Today’s Devotional won’t load *2020-12-30, version 3.0.1* For some reason I can’t access today’s devotional. Normally, it would automatically update but today I can only view yesterday’s and past devotionals. When I attempt to change the date to today’s date I can’t. The date is grayed out. ### 2/5 — The update needs to be updated *2020-02-05, version 2.3.4* I like the old version. The new version doesn’t automatically adjust to the current date. If I want the current day’s devotional, I have to turn the iPad off and turn it back on again - very frustrating. Please fix this. ### 2/5 — I’m on the fence *2020-01-22, version 2.3.4* I have the paper version but started to use the app. It worked fine until one of the up dates. Now it won’t go to the next day until the next day and the other writers the check mark is no longer there where u left off. I thought if I were to delete it and reinstall the app it would work. Now it wants me to pay for an subscription well I’ll just go back to my paper form from my church. It was nice while it lasted. ### 4/5 — Preferred older version *2019-12-15, version 2.3.4* It no longer has the ability to mark the ones I’ve already read. Occasionally I’ll miss one or two days, and I’d go back later to read them There used to be an orange dot by the ones you’ve read, not there is nothing to show where you left off reading. Please bring this feature back! ### 2/5 — Love it... but no copy text function *2019-11-22, version 1.9.5* I love this app, use it everyday... But the lack of a copy text function really upsets me. My journal is on my iPad as well. When you give me good scripture that means something to me that day, I want to copy it to my journal, and make some comments. Going back and forth between apps is frustrating. Please enable the copy text function. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Gone *2025-07-29, version 4.6* 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. ### 1/5 — Used to work great *2024-03-11, version 4.3* 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. ### 1/5 — not user friendly *2021-07-06, version 3.0.4* 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. ### 1/5 — Can’t enter church code *2020-10-18, version 2.9* Our church has the print version with the code to enter in the app. However I can’t find where to enter the code. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2020-06-06, version 2.5.7* There is no way to enter organization app access code. ### 1/5 — Update *2020-04-08, version 2.4.5* Why isn’t this website updated? It’s supposed to be a Daily devotional...but today is April 7, and April 1 is the newest devotional posted. I’m not happy with that.. and this is Not a free app ### 1/5 — Does not acknowledge my account *2019-12-06, version 1.9.5* This app continues to behave as if I don’t have an account. It is the season of Advent, but there the content is totally different than the paper version. Apple has acknowledged my payment, so why doesn’t the app? Stick with the paper version and save yourself the cost and the frustration of this app! ### 1/5 — Not interested 👎 *2019-12-01, version 1.9.5* I will not 💰 💴. ### 1/5 — Buffering Away *2019-11-04, version 1.9.5* I’ve installed the app but it’s buffering and never opening. I have an iPhone 11 and know certain glitches have been dwelt with. I’m up to date on the software. I don’t know why it’s not opening on my new phone. ### 1/5 — Not happy. *2019-09-10, version 1.9.5* II’m very upset that they the app does give you the option to cancel your subscription. I’m not using it and do not want to pay for something I’m not using. Feels like robbery. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Word for you today devotion *2026-05-24, version 5.2.1* 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. I’ve been receiving this App subscription for over 5 years now & it still ministers to me even though I’ve 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 ### 5/5 — my favorite way to take devotions on the go! *2025-03-15, version 4.6* I’ve 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! I’m 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, that’s 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. I’ve 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 that’s been super helpful. ### 5/5 — Minor Suggestion *2024-01-12, version 4.3* 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. ### 5/5 — Word for you today devotion *2022-10-04, version 3.0.4* I used to read this devotional for years as a small magazine over 11 yrs ago at my church in MD USA.

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. ### 5/5 — Love it *2020-05-01, version 2.5.7* I love the WFYT and have read it in paper and app. So many practical Biblical tips. I would like to share at times and can’t without screenshots even though it says I can at the bottom link. Please make it shareable. Otherwise I love it and the option to have it read aloud if I’m driving. Great content. Please continue! ### 5/5 — Awesome. Rewarding and blessing. Thank you *2019-07-24, version 1.9.5* Beginning my day with this reading makes my day. ### 5/5 — TWFYT *2018-11-14, version 1.9.0* Great devotional! ### 5/5 — Great Encouragement *2018-09-13, version 1.6.0* Love getting these daily reminders! These quick devotional are nice because I can read them at anytime in the day. And for just $.99 a month? Even a broke college student can afford that! ### 5/5 — Amazing enhancement *2018-09-13, version 1.6.0* The print is good. The app is great! Well executed. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
