Good app but needs some small tweaks.

I really enough having the hymnal on my tablet but one thing that frustrates me is that when I select a song then open back up the navigational menus (Title or Hymn Number) it starts me back at the top (the "A" titles or hymn number 1). Would appreciate an update that opens those menus at the hymn you currently have open and therefore fixes this issue. It would be the difference in a 3-star rating and a 5-star rating!

Why can't this be updated? Is Lifeway just ripping us off?You would think that a Christian organization like Lifeway would deal more honestly. This app is pretty much a rip-off of those of us who paid 9.99 for it. Not to be updated in this length of time is unacceptable.Nothing new here, I guess. I'd like to add my agreement to other reviews on several items. 1. Make the app more like a book where you can page from hymn to hymn. A right swipe should take you from 622 to 623, etc. 2. Selecting either TOC should open at the hymn that you are viewing, not the beginning of the list. 3. The Setlist should page from one hymn to the next, you shouldn't have to go back to the index each time. The search function is pretty hopeless. Really difficult to use. Typing "What" brings up a whole list of titles including, Abide with Me. Function needs some polishing.I hope you will update soon. Our church no longer uses hymnals (sadly) but as a musician, I hate to sing off a screen with no notation.

This is a very powerful and helpful tool for personal and cooperate worship. I use it almost everyday. The search feature works very well. It allows us to search by title, key words, or hymn number. It is very fast. The only thing missing is the ability to make multiple lists. You will have to get the LifeWay worship hymnal for that. This is a great app to have during covid 19 at church where hymnal use is discouraged and at any worship situation where hymnals are not available but hymns sung.

I love this app. It’s easy to use by selecting him number or title. And it really helps to be able to set up a set list of hymns. You know you will use in worship. I set up my set list as I sit down and look at my bulletin, and then I’m ready to shift from one him to the next. Being able to use the app on an iPad or reader is a big help for those with vision problems like presbyopia and for poorly lit sanctuaries.
