I read the ODB app every morning before breakfast and also share it on my Facebook page and text it to each member of our family and my siblings every single day. In fact, if you’re one of my friends, the ODB is the only thing you will see on my Facebook app. No -believer friends and relatives read my ODB post everyday and once when I was in a dark place I planned on deleting my Facebook and Instagram accounts and a lot of my non-believer friends asked me not to because reading my ODB post everyday has become part of their morning routine. I have been having problems with the app for a while now where I can’t share the picture at the top of the page. When I try, it shows me the last picture that is from a different date. So I always have to delete the app then download it again in order to share the picture. The picture is very important as it draws people to read my post when they see it. I pray this problem will be fixed real soon. Many blessing to all behind the ODB as you are touching so many lives with your hard work and prayers :)

Freezing

My husband and I read ODB every morning after breakfast. Im sorry to report that on most mornings it freezes up and we cannot finish the reading. I have deleted the app & then downloaded it again but we still have this same frustrating issue. Please advise me on what else I might do to correct the problem. I used the hard copy of ODB for many years but chose the on line app as a more environmentally friendly alternative. I would think it might be my internet server, but we do not have this problem on any other app & it appears others are experiencing the same issue. Maybe it can be addressed soon. We are indeed grateful for the inspiring & timely devotions & those who write & produce this publication. We have gotten to “know” the writers & can sometimes guess who is writing from the content. These Godly & talented people have become our “friends”! Thank you for providing these devotions that help us focus on spiritual ideas that encourage us in our walk.
Love the app, when it works

Ok, this is really getting annoying! When the app received its newest update version the app would not open! Realize everyone that updated to the new version was also experiencing the same thing! Wrote a review and the developers advised to delete the app. Once that was done the app worked. Now as of April 1, 2021 the app is blank for today’s reading, and when you click on the month it opens and the spinning wheel just continues to spin like it’s trying to open! VERY FRUSTRATING!!!! I thought it was a April fool joke but this is getting annoying because the next day it’s the same! Someone on the develop team is/has been slacking on working out the quirks to this app!!! And other main issue is when the new version was updated you all took away the motivation count of how many days being read! This was a cool feature and very motivating!! WHY?!??! Not liking none of this. And when mentioned about the day count on my last review complaint, the developers only address the crashing of the new version, and failed to mentioned about the day count. Could address that as well please?!?!?!? God bless!!!

Amazingly on point

It’s always nice to start the day with some motivation. Or even durning the day if I need a little guidance or a reset. Sometimes I keep reading the past devotionals until I find something that moves me. Daily Bread has been around for as long as I can remember and it’s sooooo nice to have the app available. You can read past devotions, from years ago!!! Reading plans that challenge you to accomplish yet inspiring for journaling session. It costs nothing for the app. Thank you for changing my life and those authors and persons that contribute to make this app a reality. You have blessed me and will continue to bless others. Ps I love how you can comment on the days reading and read others comments in a totally different section for that day. That was really really cool to keep that divided. It allows for individual interpretation first and optional to readOthers interpretation.
