Encounter with God

The Bible content and exposition is a huge blessing, God has used it to shape and change me over the years, deepening my relationship with him. The App itself is basic and yet clumsy with frequent unintended movement between pages, regular content update bugs as others have mentioned. Unintuitive setting access and fault reporting. Despite frequent recent update to fix bugs, I’m still not able to access the introductions to separate studies, being stuck on one from months ago. The Christmas Day reading was inexplicably missing.

Still got problems. I understand that they are building a new improved app. Thecontent (when available!) is good but the current app is rubbish. This is what I wrote recently to the owners:- 1. Every few days, the app informs me that I need a new subscription and won’t move to the next day of readings. If I click “ renew existing subscription” the request disappears but the app still won’t move to next reading. 2. The work around or temporary solution is to delete the app and its data, accept the keep subscription option, then download the app again from the iOS library. 3. That works but entails waiting for 5 or 10 minutes for the data to download again. 4. That works for about a week before same thing again. Interestingly, although the same symptom occurs on my iPhone, it happens at a different date! 5. Separately, the button that should say “Introduction to (the current series)” now daily says “Introduction to (the specific daily reading!)” but when clicked goes always to “An introduction to Acts!” I think I have explained the symptoms quite clearly enough now. I am certain that these symptoms must be experienced by ALL users of the app on Apple devices. Or are you really telling me that your tech support cannot see these symptoms on an Apple IOS device? Please FIX IT!

Despite having renewed my subscription in November, yet again I am being told my trial subscription has expired. I am having again to delete and reinstall the app. Not good enough.

I love the app but the days do not coincide with the correct readings, eg the Psalms are not on Sundays and the blue introduction box is still info about Acts. Today’s reading in the menu takes you to the correct date but the wrong reading. I have used this app for years and this has never happened before, please update properly!

Thanks!

Still not updating past end of September despite best efforts . Otherwise these are fantastic Bible reading notes when you can get them

Hi. The app won’t load October 2024. It is still on September 2024. I have done the app update and nothing happens. I have deleted and reinstalled it and still not updating.

Great notes for the start or end of a busy day.... both inspiring and challenging .... a great start to a busy day Dr John Prosser

I purchased this app bible reading yesterday but it’s still on April 2019. I paid a year’s subscription am not happy at all. A total waste of money. I’ve supported scripture union have brought their reading notes in the shops, through the post. Volunteered and helped on their children’s holidays have always thought them a great Christian company but whatever I try I can not get today’s reading up very disappointed

Bit more 'meat on the bones' in these Daily Bible Notes and all by some very knowledgable and diverse writers, from across the whole Christian spectrum. Helps give a bigger picture and a clearer understanding of God's Word. As opposed to some of the other popular Daily Reading Apps which can be a little lame in content or even juvenile, I find Encounter With God inspiring, informative and enjoyable reading. Well done and thank you!
