DOES WORK FOR ME (My screen name was a mistake when I did my first review.. don't know how to change it)I have several bible apps on my iPhone. Now I can get rid of most of them because this app has almost everything I need. The only thing I'm missing is the ability to highlight text. I researched this app before purchasing it and I thought it had highlighting. But I guess I went through so many apps that I got confused. If this feature could be added it would be the perfect 5 star app. The split screen is awsome!!! I love comparing 2 versions without having to keep switching between the two. Its amazing how you can read and scroll each side seperately. The commentary is also a great addition and being able to read the bible verse and review the commentary on the split screen is GREAT!I was going to purchase a new bible because somehow, during my aging process, the writing in my bible seems to be disappearing. I kinda stopped reading it because I had to wear reading glasses to see the text and my reading glasses aren't always readily available. I find myself in church turning to the verse but either listening to the pastor read his visable verse, reading it on the big screen or pretending I could see it. LOL! A new bible was way overdue! But.... I can see the text on this app just fine and if I can't there's a bigger text option. Also, I always have my phone with me so I can read, study or review the bible where ever I am. Sometimes at work we get into discussions about the Word and now I don't have to run to my car, get my small text bible, find my glasses and read or verify what we were discussing. I was going to purchase a good bible and it was going to cost me from $30 - $50. I wouldn't have had all the different versions: NIV, KJV, TNIV ect... and I wouldn't have had the commentary to go with it. I'm very pleased with my purchase and have already started putting it to good use. I know that once I show this app to my Christian co-workers and friends that have a iPhone they'll want to download it. Hopefully the price won't stop them. Its worth so much more!Please consider adding the highlighting feature. I'm a big bible highlighter!!Oh and............ Big up's to being a offline bible, saving my battery and being able to use it when internet is not available.

I have never submitted a review of any product or app before, however feel compelled to do so with this app. This app has been life-changing for me. To have always at my side, the complete bible in a very convenient and readily accessible form on my iPhone, without having to carry around the actual book itself, has dramatically simplified my daily bible study. The ability to quickly and effortlessly change from one version to the next and to quickly jump to referenced passages, has helped me to achieve a deeper understanding of the scriptures, even ones that had been previously confusing. The ability to easily and conveniently bookmark passages and take notes with the note taking feature, has allowed me to be more organized in my study efforts. This app is so easy to use, and of course always keeps your place for you, enabling you to pick up and start reading right where you left off, even if you have only a few minutes here or there throughout the day to read it. I have never experienced a failure in the app to work properly, and OS upgrades and even transfers to new iPhones have taken place flawlessly, even my notes and bookmarks have always been preserved and maintained. This app has been so helpful in my efforts to read, study and understand the bible, that I wish everyone could also have it and likewise benefit from it. I have given all of my family members this app as a gift, in hopes that it can do for them what it has done for me. Hopefully, it can do the same for you. God bless!

Lots of ways to customize. Does do highlighting despite comment by another reviewer. Just tap the verse number and up pops a menu to highlight in one of 5 colors. Can change fonts and size. Scroll by up/down with finger slide. Chapter forward/reverse by left/right finger slide. Can clear the screen of top/bottom options by single tap in center. returns with another tap. Nice to have multiple books and can place side by side or top to bottom. If you prefer one book but your church uses another during Bible study then you can switch from your favorite and read from it then go back to your favorite or have both open side by side. Can store notes from Bible study. Search feature is user friendly. Selection of background colors, menu colors, etc. This is a well-thought-out app that takes advantage of the iPod Touch or iPhone user interface. No on-line connection needed. You can add more to it as time goes by. It's nice to have the Bible with me in such a small package. Now I have my Bible in places I normally wouldn't carry it. Waiting at the doctor's office or sitting in the car waiting on Johnny to finish practice? You can just pull it out and read. Very handy. I have used another electronic Bible for many years in my PDA and even though it is nice I find this app so much nicer with many more features. Finally, the version with NIV, The Message and ERV along with TNIV and NIRV consume less than 26MB on my 8GB iPod Touch. This equates to 10 or 12 songs. You do not need to worry about the space required on your device. I strongly suggest you take less than 10% of the cost of an 8GB iPod Touch and buy this app!

Thank you for completing my spiritual life with this amazing app! Truly it's the best of best bible app available!!Suggestions, if possible, i'd like to re-order my bookmarks/notes particularly in the folders. When you have more than 30+ bookmarks it's really a hassle to reenter all of them just because you need certain verse to go ahead of others. And occasionally, to redirect the bible study flow with different people thru all those bookmarks! I'm loving the yearly reading plan. Just wondering if the markings can be by chapters only on top of by dates. So that in case you are on the run and won't be able to finish all 3 or 4 chapters. You can still mark it down at which chapter did you finished and continues on later. Thanks for considering about these in the future updates! ^^ Please keep up the great work! May God continues to inspire and work among you guys to benefit all these users to walk closer with Him!!
