Top Pcmac Reviews

  • One think I would like to see fixed.

    By wcmopackrat (Pcmac user)

    I love the app and it is one of the best resources I have. I especially like the translator's notes as well as the study notes. One thing that is a minor annoyance on the iPad and iPhone apps is that when a verse is highlighted, the page normally changes and it is necessary to go to the other page to highlight any additional verses. Sometimes this happens more than once when trying to highlight a passage. Like I said, I really like the app overall, but this is something I would really like to be fixed in a future update. It's the only thing that kept me from giving a 5 star rating.
  • Pretty good

    By DerwP (Pcmac user)

    Very friendly design, very readable, and good notes. There are some visual quirks/flickers, and UI is funny in some areas, but overall one of the best Bible apps in the App Store. Only wish you could space out the line height for better readability.
  • Great

    By Yoshiyahu262 (Pcmac user)

    It’s great to have the the app translation with Notes on my phone. The app is great, especially when one considers that it is free, after all. As others have mentioned, the one drawback is the handling of the notes. Since the extensive notes are one of the main draws of the the app, it would be better if there was a way to have the notes accessible in a better way than the pop-up form, like a separate area of the screen or something. But again. Free app, and everything else is elegant and intuitive.
  • A must have app for bible students

    By Malik blishtar (Pcmac user)

    This translation is my second favorite behind the NRSV since it's hard to find a readable, accurate mid-functional translation. The OT is translated w/o interpretation from the NT. And done so by Protestant evangelicals no less! Talk about an trans. honest to the text & not theology. And don't get me started on the fairly neutral( though sometimes conservative) notes! So helpful and informative! Only drawback is the lackluster psalms. If they update the poetry some more & this may be my first choice Bible.
