In general, I really like this app. I've used it for years, and it has always worked well. It is a little frustrating that the search feature is translation specific. Recently, a loud advertisement will play when you start a search. Even if you have your phone on silent. the music plays loudly. Very annoying.

I have enjoyed this app for some years now. It is wonderful to have all those translations available and comparable so they can enrich each other. Recently though, in an attempt to make a reading plan work, I had to reinstall the app. This new version is not as good as it was. Limited reading plans, can't change the font, but worst of all it no longer keeps my place. Every time I open the app I'm back at Genesis 1. I wish I hadn't reinstalled / updated.

Thank you for your feedback, Gabi! If you click on the "Read the Bible" button on the main page, it will always go to Genesis 1:1. Tap the menu button and "Bible" and the app will return you to the last place you were. If you're having other difficulties, please reach out to support@biblegateway.com so they can assist you properly!

I used to love this app but I have a few issues with it. First, the app never used to have ads now before I can start reading I have to watch an ad. Mainly, snap chat ads which one day showed a big busted woman in bikini. Then there's the fact that when you finish a book, it doesn't go to the next one it randomly skips. The app needs alot of work and the ads need to be better filtered.
