So much potential, failed execution
This app could and should be a great resource but the bugs make it useless for its most basic function. For many weeks now it hasn’t updated or even shown the daily broadcast. When it was working the download for offline listening was useless because in spite of having the broadcast downloaded when trying to play it offline it just gives a message that you’re offline.
Please spend some time working out the bugs. For now I’m using Apple Podcasts app to listen because this app is useless with these bugs.

Functionality
Not very functional. The app and the study information are top notch. But I have to restart my iPhone every other week because the app stops loading. I have deleted it and reinstalled the app several times. That’s not a good thing either, because now there is nothing showing what I have listened too in the past or what studies I have done myself. I listen every single morning and I use the weekly email that shows the weeks schedule so I can stay on track with the program. The problem with that is that I don’t get to hear the ministry updates. I donate to the program monthly, and believe that the app should not have so many issues
Love the program either way

Very Meaningful
I am on my second 5 year trip but have listened for many years when I could catch it on the radio. I love and share the app whenever I can with someone, the more you ride the Bus the deeper your understanding becomes. Come ride the Bible Bus with us.

3.0.0 won’t play
Since the 3.0.0 update yesterday the app doesn’t play at all. I have a iPhone 17 Pro with iOS 27.0.1. I closed all other apps and just did a fresh reboot of the phone and when I launch Thru the Bible, it looks like the app started, but it won’t play any message
Fantastic App
This app is my daily “go-to” for my spiritual feed. The ability to search out and listen to any part of the 5 year program is invaluable.

Great but having problems playing messages
It’s very well organized and contains lots of resources. A couple of problems:
1. I have found the app frequently has problems playing or loading the Bible messages. Sometimes nothing plays and I have to redownload the app to try to get it working. Other times, I have it playing and I pause it or maybe the app crashes but I lose my place. Can be pretty frustrating.
2. The Mark as Complete function doesn’t always work. There is a point while working through a book that the button stops working, and I can’t mark my progress, so I have to remember which chapter I left off.
I hope these can be fixed sometime in the future

Have to give phone number now to listen.
App used to work great, now they require you to give your phone number to listen to the Thru The Bible segment . Not an option , a requirement. Why should they need my number? Deleting app now.
TTB—a Lifeline
Dr. Mcgee’s 5 year systematic teaching from Genesis through Revelation has been my daily companion for over 20 years. The Through the Bible app enables me to access the teaching on demand—anytime/anywhere. Dr. Mcgee’s Bible teaching offers the richest in-depth study of the entire Bible that is available. Get on the “Bus” and be blessed!

Great teaching thank you very much.

Love Dr. McGee, wish the app wasn’t so glitchy
I listen to two lessons on my way to work, currently in 1 Peter. I’m on iOS 18.5. It takes several seconds for most things I tap on to respond, and getting the lesson to play usually depends on which menu I play it from, switching menus and trying again, and rebooting the app several times. It sometimes will and sometimes won’t automatically play the next lesson, (again often depending which menu is open) and very often won’t save or remember which lessons I already listened to. Very frustrating when I’m trying to get it to work in the car. But the actual lessons are wonderful, my whole family loves Dr. McGee

Amazing
Love this app
Used to be great
The new app is linking far too much personal information. My family is not allowed to download it or use it. Thoroughly app was not nearly so invasive. A simple web search on Thru The Bible. Also try to link to my phone, preventing me from downloading, free booklets and Resources. Something has changed and we are no longer able to use vernon mcgee’s resources on our cell phones because of this. … I’m back to the bookcases and old recordings on my desktop. Too bad the app is demanding so much private information. it’s sad to say goodbye, after listening to vernon mcgee since 1981

Horrible App
I hate complaining about something free and with teaching I thoroughly enjoy but this app is plagued with bugs. Half the time it won’t load the content, it sometimes won’t check off where you stopped and started listening making it hard to track your progress. Also though this has improved, sometimes it won’t hold your place in a particular teaching if you had to pause it. I’m debating deleting it altogether as it’s too frustrating on a daily basis to use. It’s a shame as I thoroughly enjoy Dr. McGhee’s teachings.

Broken?
I have LOVED this app and use it multiple times daily to study multiple books of the Bible, however, this morning something is wrong!!! The app is very sluggish and will not allow me to do anything/navigate at all! Help! Thank you and God bless!
Great resource!
I recently started using the app after listening on the radio for years. I find it easy to use and a great resource. Also looks great and it brings honor to God and Dr. McGee’s teaching. If you’re going to do something for the Lord it should be done with a commitment to excellence. They have certainly done that. Thank!

Awesome
The app works flawlessly on my older tablet too. Great optimization.
Ditto Wendy Panhandle…
I have to “re-do the app” to play it over. I like to play it more than once. It is definitely worth the inconvenience, but I wish I didn’t have to do that.
Absolutely love this app! Recommend 1000%
I'm gaining a much deeper appreciation for the Old Testament laws and ceremonies.
Still Good
Runs a little slower than other Apps But a very good App
