### 5/5 — Essential to my daily life

*2026-08-07, version 2.1.15*

Makes easy to read the messages that God has for me thru His word…. Thank you for this app!!!

### 4/5 — Scrolling

*2026-07-26, version 2.1.15*

Scrolling is annoying when view changes so quickly

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2026-07-22, version 2.1.15*

My step mother started me with the Word Among Us about 40 years ago. Then there was only the paper edition that came through the mail. The App offers the same plus more. I love the music which always seems to fit nicely with the readings. 
There is always an inspirational message which many times is applicable to my life. Thank you. God bless all of you and thank you for creating the App.

### 4/5 — Suggestions

*2026-06-25, version 2.1.15*

I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and love the app but am reluctant to give it a 5 star rating for these reasons:
1) The top and bottom margins are too wide and take up more space than necessary.
2) The constant animation caused by my scrolling up and down is distracting.
3) The banner pointing to the meditation is not required since most readers are aware of its location and is not hard to reach.
Otherwise every other feature is wonderful especially the change to the psalms where the response is provided after each section.
Thank you.

### 5/5 — My access to the Daily Readings

*2026-02-10, version 2.1.6 (5)*

This is a wonderful app which I use almost daily seven though I subscribe to the print version! It's perfect for when I am on the go or if I have a few minutes during my lunch break. I have even used it on occasion during Mass at our church.

### 5/5 — Best App I Have

*2026-02-02, version 2.1.6 (5)*

Listening to the daily readings and meditation is a great way two start your day.

### 5/5 — Saving the Day

*2025-12-12, version 2.1.5 (1)*

This app starts my day, everyday - without fail, I’m connected to the Father, the Son, the Holly Spirit. Thank you God, Almighty Father for loving us and me!

### 5/5 — Please fix the application!!

*2025-11-30, version 2.1.3*

This is a wonderful app, I always use at every Mass.
But lately the app shuts down every time I want to access the monthly readings and publications

### 4/5 — Bookmark

*2025-11-02, version 2.1.0*

The Word Among Us is a great daily spiritual support for anyone. 
The only thing that the digital edition is missing is a bookmark…. Otherwise I love it as you can use it wherever you are.

### 5/5 — Faithfully

*2025-10-20, version 2.1.0*

I have been using The Word Among Us for over 40 years. It has been a constant guide in my life and is always just what I need. I now use the digital form but also pass along my book to grandchildren and others I think will benefit by it. Thank you for being SO real and not too lofty so that we normal people are able to relate!!    God bless all of you!!
