Exactly what I’ve been looking for!!!
I know it’s still in the beta stages but this app is what I’ve been looking for in order to do Bible study/sermon prep. Can’t wait till it’s got all the features that apps like GoodNotes and Apple Notes has.
Remember…
“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord”
Keep up the good work Team!
Good concept, just need a few more tweaks
I really do love this app. I’ve been wanting to annotate the Bible with my apple pencil for a while. However, my annotations keep moving, which make them useless, since I don’t know what I initially highlighted or circled.
Did not work
I signed up account and does not match pics anyhow can’t add notes.
Great foundation
I really enjoy this Bible app. I’m very much a mark up reader, so having the ability to do so is really nice. The layout and bible creation are great, and the pencils/highlighters feel great to write with.
Some gestures and other features are needed, but I believe they’re in the works!
Overall very pleased with it, and looking forward to its continued development.
Somewhat Okay
Good concept. Not liking the eraser feature, there’s not much control as to what I want to erase. Not enough translations to choose from.
