Bible App.
07/24/2019

Just recently got this 1Bible app and am well pleased with it. Now I can choose my preferred Bible translation (NASB) and daily reading is much easier. I can adjust the print size, the color of the background for the print, mark the Book and chapter as read, switch from Old Testament to New Testament in a matter of seconds, and still have the words of Christ in traditional red letters for easy recognition. I have the Bible in my Kindle library, but this app makes reading on a daily basis much easier. Many thanks to the creators of this app. For me, it is a Godsend. I still have my print versions of His Word in my book shelf at the head of my bed to use anytime I choose, but for my daily reading, this app is wonderful.

Hot garbage update

The more these “developers” “develop”, the more they screw up the app… now on the October 2024 update I have to push on “Done” to switch between books and verses! It adds one more unnecessary step that wasn’t needed before, when I chose the verse, it navigated automatically. Why can’t you just work on only iOS compatibility and leave the input interfaces alone!? I’ve got too many years invested on the OneBible app, but you keep ruining my readings every time you update it. Lastly, I see you finally removed the Auto-lock disable button in the settings that never seemed to work. That’s one development could not seem to get to work so throw in the towel! Thumbs up… not. The May 2022 Update v. 4 is a huge step backwards. On their push for subscribers and accounts, I lost all my bookmarks, highlights, and books completed. The header font is too small and hard to read. Switching between books doesn’t allow alphabetical searches any more. The icing on the cake may be opening the app in church and getting an ad with audio…

Been using for 10 years. Not a good app.

brent, frustrated
I originally purchased the NASB app ($30) almost 10 years ago. I have thousands of highlights and notes. I was basically forced into using the new app (OneBible) a while back. I’ve had issues with both apps since the beginning. I’ve contacted support multiple times and it isn’t good. The sync feature doesn’t work right for multiple devices, the dictionary lookup doesn’t work anymore, I bookmarked a page and couldn’t clear it and kept pressing the bookmark only to see a dozen bookmarks for each time I tried to clear, I now have to pay to remove adds that blare out when I’m trying to be quiet, and I could go on. It seems every time something is fixed, another issue arises. I have been a software developer for over 30 years and I know how software development and quality control should work and it isn’t like this. I’m so many years and so far into this app that I hate to change now, but I’m almost done! There are other options and I would definitely recommend you search for something different.

Hi Brent, this is Kyle from the app support team. The same Kyle who has been replying to your emails. If I were in your position I would feel the same way. In fact, in many ways I too am frustrated with the app recently. Our team is passionate and dedicated to making the One Bible app the best it can be. It's frustrating for us to find many unexpected issues when upgrading the app to the latest technology. I am truly sorry to lose an app user. However as long as you continue to read the Bible, it's okay. The mission of One Bible is to bring scripture to the hands of people worldwide and we will continue to pursue that. I pray that you will continue to study scripture no matter the app or device you do it with, and perhaps one day you will return to the One Bible app.

Was great. Now frustrating. Don’t buy this app.

I’ve had this app for many years (10 maybe) when a while ago an “update” undid all I liked (and paid for) about it. Originally, I paid $25 because this app had the 1984 version of the NIV and there were no ads. After the update (maybe 2 years ago) it started making me watch an ad before getting to the Bible which has been super inconvenient when sitting in church trying to flip to various verses, plus I paid for ad free! So I emailed the apps contact. No response. Emailed again. Still no response. Is there anyone there?Despite this, the NIV84, which is specifically what I paid the $25 for was still accessible on their app so I stuck with it. But as of recently, the NIV84 has disappeared. I couldn’t feel more taken advantage of. I emailed one more time this morning. Hopefully I’ll hear back. Don’t put yourself through the frustration of this experience. This app is no longer worth it. They just want your money but aren’t there for you and don’t stand behind their product.
