Blank Screen
Just about every time I open the day’s devotion, I get a blank screen. I have to force close the app and restart it to get the devotion to show up. Other than that, I’ve liked it.

Is not reliable
I never know when I open the App if I will see the current day’s devotion or a blank screen. Most of the time I can “find” the devotion but sometimes I cannot. The same is true for the daily prayers. I like the convenience of using the app and Bible on my IPhone especially when traveling so I put up the the blank screen sometimes.
love this app!
Please keep the audio and the music that you have kept since 2017. I am glad it is there.

I was introduced to this publication when it was a quarterly booklet avai9lable from Lutheran Churches. Sincve then I progressed to the quarterly onoine subscription, and now an annual subscription. I'm not a Lutheran but read the daily devotionals and morning & evening prayers. I've marked so many messages "Favourites" they could make a book in themselves. They keep me grounded in the Word, and are a great source of comfort in any situation. PTL!
Voice is repellant.
In a world of podcasts, you think you can get people to listen with that live? Cmon, you can do better than that. I literally had to stop the voice and just read. Very disappointing. Overall, I rate a 3, as the rest of the app is ok. Would like the option of setting up notifications for daily devotions. But all in all, I think the app is good and will continue using it. I hope you can improve on the narrator, possibly give the option of audio speed. That would be great. Thanks for putting this out there, with a little tweaking, it could be something id share outside my Lutheran family.

I love the chance to be able to have my portal of prayers with me everywhere! in the morning I read it like at 4 AM from my phone! Thanks
Does not work
I downloaded this app and paid my subscription, but it does not work. I cannot get anything to work.
Ginoko
I absolutely love this app. I read paper versions I received from church, tore out my favorites from those smaller books and piled them up. Nice to have the app with archives. I found my paper copies, the devotion on the app, then marked favorite and threw the paper version away. I like having a reader. Living alone nice to hear a voice reading to me❤️
Wrong Voice
I was so excited to purchase this app until I heard the first devotion. The person reading the devotion is NOT the right voice for voiceover work. Hire Larry Conners, or at least a professional announcer. Sorry, but this poor man is boring and needs to step away from the mic. Thank you, God, that I still have the ability to read. 🙏🏻✝️😇🎄🙏🏻
Thank you
Thanks for addressing all the problems.
