I really like this APP, but it needs a bit of help. You need to add a Plus, and Minus on the readings pages so I can speed up, or slow down the page scrolling, so I can get a better hold on the hearing, while following the text with the scrolling pages. When I set the text size, and the Speaker's voice speed. The reading of text should now have my pages scrolling at an equal pace. So I can follow along, as I hear the Word. APP! Enjoy! GODSPEED to YOU AND YOURS. Amen!

App was great and I was depending on it more and more. However, I followed the One Year Bible plan, got to the end, had one chapter to read to finish and the app froze. l it will not let me finish my plan. Tried getting out of the application, rebooting the phone and still it will not let me finish. so I went to the app on my tablet and finished it there. app says you've completed your plan feel free to start another one. however the app froze and won't let me. I've emailed twice, no response.

Love it!!! So much study material available at your fingertips: numerous commentaries, interlinear comparison, additional translation comparisons, etc., etc , etc. It's taken a little time to get to know how to access some features (which options to select to see/view/find additional features) but well worth the search. A must-have for anyone desiring to understand GOD'S Word in-depth.

I'm unable to move backup files to a safe location in the cloud because they're no longer saved in my phone's storage. If I lose my phone, I'll lose all my edits since 2022, when backups stopped. (Essentially, backups are useless.) Please fix. 11/14/23 edit: Lost all my edits, as predicted, since I had to reinstall the app. How sad that developers didn't address this in a full year's time. Down to two stars. Pretty egregious.

I love having a non-intrusive app that has so much of what I need! I love the access to multiple versions, the ease of comparison, the Strong's Concordance to take a deeper look, and even the commentators, at times. I love that I can highlight verses with a variety of colors, each with a name I choose (eg. Blue-faith, yellow-encouragement, etc.)

Update- 1-3-23 I have noticed for a while now that it is no longer completing the chapter readings on audio. Please fix this. I love this app! Although, I'm not sure why there are different features and more features on the iPhone and iPad... the only reason it gets 4 stars and not 5 is that this app Lacks is the ability to store your notes and highlights on a cloud! It is stored on the device and if you do not store constantly you could lose all of your information.

Great app! Favorite feature is turning off chapter and verse marks so you can read it as it was written. PLEASE!!! Can the developers please add permissions or some sort of fix for the audio bible. Anytime I get any kind of notification the audio immediately stops the reading and I have to manually play again. In the shower, cleaning, driving, this becomes annoying and I'm starting to use YouTube to listen to the Bible because it doesn't have that problem.

Great Bible app! It has so much in there—Strongs, Lexicons, Bible narration, etc. That most other apps don't have. The UI could be cleaned up a bit. It's a little clunky looking in places and can be slightly confusing to navigate but it's worth it. Developers if you're reading this, I would suggest that for a lot of the navigational icons you put text with them - it's not always obvious what they do. Also, I think the Home button should be a Bible button, since that's what it navigates to.

Best Bible phone app I've used. I've always felt ham-handed trying to study or prepare a class using phone apps. I've been MUCH more comfortable using a PC. The BLB has changed that. It has most all of the study tools I use. You can even do an Englishman's search even though it doesn't technically have the Englishman's concordance. What could be improved? The ability to flip back and forth between search result screens. Nevertheless, navigation is pretty good... once you learn how to use it.

This is a phenomenal app. This has replaced both YouVersion and AndBible. It has everything I need from both, none of the unnecessary (and sometimes annoying) features from YouVersion, and I love the navigation. My only hope is that whatever licencing from HarperCollins to get NKJV and NIV available for offline use works out. In the mean time my other go-tos have already been downloaded (NASB95, ESV, CSB, KJV) so I can make do.

Excellent Bible app. Especially for exegesis of scripture, it allows you to study the Hebrew and Greek meaning, and has audio pronunciation of the words, which is awesome! I downloaded it on my tablet. P.S. I never had any problems with it freezing up on my phone it worked really well. I just choose to take it to my tablet for greater study. Thank you. And I believe this is the best Bible Study tool out their! Try it, you will never give it up, especially if you love the word of God! 📖

I've tried several Bible apps before, but this one has become my go-to! The interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy to navigate and find what I need. The daily devotionals and reading plans are so helpful in keeping me on track and deepening my understanding of God's word. Being able to go into the eytomolgy is a great help to understanding the scriptures

Have never been prompted to review this app. App is run on donations, so I've never been bothered by ads. Really like that I can compare 2 translations at a time. There are many translations to choose from. The spoken Bible feature still works even if I turn off the phone so I can listen to the Bible at night without being bothered by the screen light. Easy to navigate. Can't seem to get help for when app glitches. Just referred to Google group. Last thing I want to do is utilize another Google

I love it !! This has replaced YouVersion bible app. It is so much easier to use, and it doesn't lag like the other app and love the colors to highlight the bible scriptures so much brighter. Also, it has a parallel side by side view of two bibles, and you can select a second one to view them and study both or look at the different translations, for example, NIV and KJV. It's incredible ! I think you should try it ! ♥️

80% of the time I use BLB for the Interlinear function to convert words to original language txt to find out the original meanings of. The 20% of the time I use it as a regular bible, I get frustrated by it. The back button skips 2 menus to the previous chapter and not back to the search results. The search function is also a pain, as it is part broken. While it can ONLY search for exact keywords, and not suggestions (like the more popular YouVersion can), not all keywords are searchable! 😡

I use this app multiple times a day. It's easy to use. The search function works well. The interlinear function provides easy access to the underlying Greek, Hebrew, or Aramaic text, it shows where those terms show up in English by reference, it provides the MGNT and TR text for the N.T., and the Hebrew and LXX for the O.T., and it also provides the root and inflected versions of those underlying the words and describes the parts of speech. This is an indispensable tool for Biblical study.

Well, I USED to like it! A few days ago it froze up but, after a couple of hours it started working again. Yesterday 5/26/24 it froze AND it is still frozen!! I know, I have an older phone Samsung S9+ and it still works great! I'm most upset because my highlights will be gone. Oh, I've had this app for a few years. I'm sorry to see it go
