Great cross reference function
Beautiful design and text
Suddenly glitchy
I used to find this app very useful indeed. I’ve been taking sermon notes on it, linked to the passage, for what seems like a decade. Sadly the last month or so it appears to have caught COVID and stubbornly refuses to all me to annotate Bible passages. Please (please) fix this soon, as I’d hate to lose so much valuable info…
What happened to the Study version?
I’ve been using the ESV app for years as well as the ESV Study bible app. But the Study version is no longer supported on the latest iOS or in the App Store. This was a great resource. What happened to it?
Readability
Contrast or font weight is lower in this update. It makes it harder to read.
Gorgeous & intuitive app
Simple, elegant, and so intuitive! Perfect for those who can do without the clutter and enjoy the clean presentation, but still has all you could need tucked away for when you need it!
Amazing!
Why did it take me this long to discover this!? Combined with the cheap subscription and access to study and devotional bibles, reading and devotional plans and ability to highlights and take notes, this has transformed my study and devotional times. Thanks Crossway! My only request is please add more highlight colours, 2 or 3 more (like purple and yellow) would help with Study a lot!
No bad I guess no the best but................................men
Not bad I guess but men are pretty cool
Good app, but can be improved
This is a great app. I love all the study features that are available on this app. Just an area of improvement: I like making multiple notes in a Bible app, and it's a bit annoying when the Bible app I'm using (this app) doesn't let me do that. Can you please make it so that you can add more notes to a particular passage? That would be amazingly helpful. :)
