Pencil Bible

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!

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.

I signed up account and does not match pics anyhow can’t add notes.

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.

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.

First off, I love the concept behind this app, truly. And I am thankful to the developers for making this app for people who want to study God’s Word in a traditional way with a nifty device. However, without zoom capability I feel as though the app is very hard for me to use. I like to be neat with my writing, but in order for me to be neat I have to write fairly large on my iPad screen. If I had the ability to scroll I would be able to write large and not take up a bunch of space per page, and the experience would be 100 times better. I’m disappointed because I bought the lifetime access and yet I now feel as though the app is useless, literally only because of the fact that its missing zoom. Please give ear to this and add this simple feature in so that I can adequately use the app :(

You came along a bit since the last time I tried the app, glad to see you are getting more bible versions. Love the dark mode. Writing pencils and highlighters are primitive but satisfactory. This is great for journaling, note taking, highlighting. I am seeing growth, and there is so much potential here! Money isn’t a deterrent for me, and money I spend to draw near to God is a good investment in my eyes, but still not enough to pull me from my other bible app. My other app lacks the ability to write in the margin or a side page and that is what keeps me drawing me back to check on the app, but the other app offers a lot of study tools like Strong’s, commentaries, dictionaries, cross reference, more bible versions, the ability to study multiple versions side by side or to swap back and forth. it also is a costly app but again that is not a deterrent for me personally and I have a lot of money invested in the other app already so to leave it at this point I still the more options. Keep going, this app is still the only one I have found that allows writing with my I pencil in a nice wide margin and I can’t tell you how much I love that feature!

Please help it wont work for drawing or anything. it still dont work. Ive tried everything you can think of, restarting the ipad. And deleting tha app over and over. Everything it wont work. Please help.

The ease of use and visual aesthetics of the app are really nice. And in the short time I’ve use it it gets the job done. But considering some missing features that I think are essential and how this app is priced, I can’t give it more than a passing review. You have to pay $10 for each of the more popular translations and if you’re someone who likes to switch between translations you have to pay for each one. On top of paying for translations that most people would use, to make notes on more than 10 chapters, you have to subscribe and either pay $60 one time or $30 yearly (there are more options but you get the jest). Seems a little pricy imo. In terms of missing features, switching between landscape and portrait is a little clunky. You have to wait a couple of seconds for the screen to reload (with a loading bar and everything). In landscape mode the amount of blank space you have is often more than you actually have. Meaning if you draw outside of a marked area, it will not carry the image over if you switched back to portrait. The result is it feels like a lot of waisted horizontal space which is kinda of the point of switching to landscape orientation. My biggest gripe, though, is that many drawing apps allow you to erase or undo an action by tapping with two fingers or double tapping with two fingers. It is a little annoying to have to go all the way to the eraser and back again to the pen to undo a small mistake. BUT overall it’s a nice app. A little expensive, but it gets the job done.

I love the way the app is set up but I wish it had the NKJV.
