Dwell: Audio Bible

Thanks, love it

Blown back by the quality of the recordings! It has a beautiful interface and it’s wonderful to be able to shuffle the voice in repeat! It feels like I have a line of scribes standing for my disposal to read out the word as I please! Wow! However it lacks a key function to single out a verse or a collection of verses to be repeated rather than a whole chapter. I really hope this will be added soon. If this feature is added then I will recommend the app to all my brethren! Keep up the good work! God bless.

I spiritually cultivate everyday and this app was pivotal in helping me develop this habit over time, both in the morning and evening, as part of my routine. It perfectly supplements Bible reading and prayer, and I’m grateful to have such a thoughtful app. However, more often than I’d like I’m exposed to “concepts” and doctrines regarding Trinity which are not specifically mentioned in the Bible. In the Bible it does not say names of “Father, Son and Holy Spirit” rather name of. There is only one name under which we are to be saved, that is the name of Jesus. I do not pray to “the father, son and Holy Spirit” but Jesus Christ, neither do the disciples baptize in the name of the father son and Holy Spirit, rather in Jesus Christ’s name as cited in Acts through Jesus baptizing, his disciplines baptizing, including recordings of Peter and John. Regardless, I just prefer if the app could be noble enough as to not use the general belief in Trinity just because many of the developers believe in this or it’s common to many Christians to believe— the Bible (words of God) did not see a need to say “trinity” and neither do I. there is also the chance that when saying in the name of Father Son and Holy Spirit, the disciples at the time already know the name of these three. Though in different times and different planes they are not three different persons; Anyway that’s only my faith so I won’t expand upon that. In essence, as a non-denominational Christian I’d prefer not to have to brace myself for brainwashing everytime— to be severe. Because not everyone believes in Trinity. Just as people would prefer not to have Catholic teachings and saints inserted into their daily listening, I’d greatly appreciate if phrasings and subjective beliefs that are not specifically recorded or can be referenced from the Bible be considered the “status quo”. A writer myself, I never write reviews. however, today hearing the sharing state: generally it’s widely known that Trinitarianism” or something along those lines really offended me. However, I’m not writing a review to denigrate but in the hopes that devs can really stay more aligned directly with the words of God in the hearings and reflections, which is why I fell in love with the app in the first place. Thank you.

I have had the regular Bible app for years but this took it to another level of listening and diving deeper!

I stumbled upon this app and it has been what I’ve been looking for! I started the chronological plan and I love the dramatic reading as I follow along. (I also appreciate all the setting options available). God’s word is meant to be engaged with for it IS alive and active! I realized years ago that I am an auditory learner and so I’ve been trying to find an engaging Bible reading plan and this has been great so far! I also realize that early believers mostly heard the word and I wanted to sit in that this year and hear how they heard allowing God’s word to shape me.

I understand they have to pay their designers and their readers and all that, so I would understand a 1 time payment of 10 dollars or whatever (basically the cost of a real Bible), but putting a hefty monthly subscription on the Word of God is absolute crazy work. I rebuke ya'll in the name of Jesus

Trying to highlight in the reading portion and unable to which is pretty frustrating. Feel like thats a basic feature unless I’m missing something

I just recently was added to a family plan and find the app very soothing, enjoyable, and full of scripture! I feel the Lord giving me peace when I hear His word through this app. It’s very well designed and the audio is great quality too!

I wanted the app and was willing to pay $40/year to hear the Bible in a different audio translation that the YouVersion app doesn’t have. The YouVersion app doesn’t have great audio voiceovers in my opinion. However, it’s not as user friendly as YouVersion, you can’t highlight verses, making notes isn’t an option that I could find and I couldn’t start TBR plan early or ahead of January 1. I played around with the settings and there weren’t many customizable options either. I’d pay $20/year for this, but $40 is steep.

They don’t tell you, you must pay till you fill everything out … what a shame and waste of my time… NOT COOL… I deleted the app
