The Urantia Book - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Quietly, with little fanfare, this mysterious and thought-provoking book came about more than half a century ago — a book about life's purpose. Reviews from www.amazon.com...

"Both otherworldly and down to earth, both simple and sophisticated, both soothing and shaking... I can describe it using a thousand words and still not begin to describe it. There is nothing like it in print, that's for sure."

"A monumental piece of work that clearly was meticulously crafted."

"I most appreciate the wisdom in this book, both in quantity and quality, I have not read anything that even comes close."

"If you have been searching for inspiration, this book is alive."

"Best book on the planet — and has satisfied my every question."

(After 20+ years on Amazon and a combined 2000+ written reviews, 4.5 out of 5 stars.)

No person is credited as the author. How did this strange but relentlessly detailed and expansive book come to be written? Is it wisdom literature or sci-fi? In methodical prose, it lays out an epic story that has intrigued many people who have come across it.

The application includes:
- Full unabridged book in six languages (no network access needed to use, all is installed on your iPhone / iPad / iPod)
- Powerful search engine custom-designed for the book
- Random quotes feature with thousands of quotes
- Sharing through social media, text messaging, and email
- Text to speech - let the app read the book to you
- Bilingual support to show two languages side-by-side at the same time. Text-to-speech is also fully supported in bilingual mode for each language.
- Night mode and sepia for easier reading
- Options to adjust font type, text size, and margins
- Easy navigation system using detailed table of contents
- Reference numbers in the text optionally can be switched on, with multiple types of reference numbers to choose from.
- Page numbers for the English text that match the pagination of the most popular print edition (pages 1 - 2,097).
- Bookmarks
- History

Instructions:
- While reading, a bookmark is added by double-tapping on the navigation bar title (for instance, "Paper 160" in the screenshots you can see here on the App Store). Bookmarks can also be added using the History rows. Tap the blue star on the right side of a History row to bookmark that location.
- By triple-tapping on a navigation bar title, you can conveniently switch night mode on and off. This also works in the Quotes section of the app.
- Helpful tips while reading quotes: Swiping left and right gives you the next quote or lets you see a previous one. Alternatively, simply double-tap on a quote to go to the next one. These gestures are especially useful on devices with larger screens, compared to reaching for the "New" button.

The book is free to read. For app requests and comments, please send them to [email protected]. Enjoy.

Great app

This has been on my Home Screen for the last decade and I use it daily. Couldn’t recommend it enough and the developers have been consistently brilliant in making this app always relevant for whatever iOS we’re currently on. Thank you for creating and upholding this!

Astounding!

Blue Book app

Dear Developers of the app I downloaded the app and I am currently using in my iphone. For those who have studied this book to find words and paragraphs is very helpful, many times is necessary revise concepts in these book and a quick tool search for words in this app is really needed. I strongly suggest that to improve this app you have a look of all the bible apps and how they are designed, this app must be an acme of design, I wouldn't expect less of students of this book, however the fact is that this app is still underdeveloped, it lacks many features, as I said just have a look to the bible apps and you will know how to improve it, urgently. I hope you will actualize this potential. Remember the following, which can be applied in the simplest things such as this: 102:5.1 And in the time universes, potential is always supreme over the actual. In the evolving cosmos the potential is what is to be, and what is to be is the unfolding of the purposive mandates of Deity. Potential is always (emphasis add) over the actual. This app must be developed to be easier to find words, phrases and paragraphs, even authors, events, dates, figures, etc, etc, You who know the true nature of this book know very well the tremendous responsability about this. I very much thank to those who made this app I am using it but it is still incomplete, partial. 111:4.11 Evil is a partiality of creativity which tends toward disintegration and eventual destruction. All conflict is evil in that it inhibits the creative function of the inner life—it is a species of civil war in the personality. Then, be creative and make this app the best there is for the study which we do need presently. Regards E

False doctrine

What a ridicules concept of belief. Just as confusing as the Catholics theology on the subject. Sounds like a load of fictitious nonsense.

If you don't believe in God, don't bother

I thought I would give this title a chance and so I downloaded it, after all it was FREE! I immediately became aware as a long standing Aetheist that this was another way to Bible Bash. Cleverly concealed as a revolutionary new take on belief, the first quote started rambling on about GOD. This is nothing new and in fact is insulting to people who may just want some comforting, new, intelligent words from the norm. THIS WON'T DO IT. A total waste of device memory!

Don't mock without Reading

Having read this book a few years back after it found me, yes it's true it does find you, I would recommend to anyone who has an interest in science, space, sociology, ancient history and yes religion. Don't listen to those on here who review it as a religious book, it's much more than that and simply highlights the fact they have only browsed not read what it has to offer.

Misleading preview - don't download

This is just bible propoganda.

Curious book, indeed

In my experience, I can agree with the statement "you don't find this book, it finds you." Whether or not you believe it to be fact, it certainly gives you a great deal to ponder, research, disprove, etc and is definitely an interesting read.

You need help

If you read this book,I hope you get a life soon.

What a load of twaddle

Unless you are a Jesus freak, don't download.
