Love the features this app has and how easy it is to navigate through it
This is the first Bible app I had that did not have zoom in options available. However, I received a work around: Tap on the three bars in the upper left corner of the app. Select Settings. Tap on Font and adjust the font size to your preference.
Best online bible ever! I have bible at my finger tips to read scripture and look up meaning of scripture. Also the dramatic New Testament is like listening to wonderful play!
It would be nice if language translation was available for free, everything cost money almost nothing is offered for free unfortunately.
Would be great if you all added a way to copy any given verse by tapping and holding any text and it highlights either the word or whole verse, then an option to copy it - just like how the iPhone functions when tapping down and holding on a word, and a pop up comes up to copy/paste/etcetera. This would be very helpful.
I have used a Ignatius study Bible for many years now. It has been valuable to my studies. Word searches throughout the entire Bible help me find verses very quickly. The podcast are low cost and have amazing insight into the Catholic faith. There’s only one flaw that has happened and that is the daily readings don’t match up with the actual daily readings, but even with this flaw, it is sup to all the other Catholic study Bibles. I have downloaded and I could not rate it less because even with this current flaw, it blows a lot of the other Bibles out of the water.

The app seems difficult to use and there is not much help for figuring it out. I paid the extra money for the full study bible and it is very awkward. The Protestants with the ESV app came up with something easy to use and free. Not sure why we can’t do the same or better, especially since it isn’t free.
The whole Catholic Bible at your fingertips! Great!
This app makes it very easy to follow whatever books and verses in the Bible that are important to the reader.
I paid for the audio downloads. I am only able to playback one of the gospels. I have asked support for help. The one person who replied has not been helpful and then stopped answering my emails for assistance.
I love this bible app on my macbook. It's easy to use and very helpful during my bible study.
The study Bible is excellent. The audio is good as well. There's a long standing very annoying bug that causes the app to scroll to verse 1 of the chapter when looking up an exegetical note.
I love this Catholic Bible app. I would give it 5 stars if it had audio for the Old Testament, but awesome app still. Hopefully, an audio Old Testament will come out soon. I’m most unfamiliar with the Old Testament and i find it more difficult to just open up and read the Old Testament. However, i really want to hear and know the stories at the same time. I feel like if there was audio for it, it would help a lot, even if it is not dramatized. That way I can just easily play and hear the stories in the background. I also just don't want to have to download a non-Catholic Bible app just to hear the Old Testament in audio which would take up extra space on my phone 😄 But, I love the app so far!
This application is a great help to me. It is easy to use and navigate. The hyper links open a window to connecting Old and New Testament passages and thoughts. When used with my bible and the daily readings, I am better equipped to understand the Word and comprehend Salvation history. This app is a boy. Michael A Cruz San Jose, CA
One of the few apps I’ve found with good study bible integration. However, after purchasing the full study bible, clicking on various notes seems to randomly navigate me through the current chapters, losing my place. Additionally, whoever you load a note, the note opens, then it immediately reloads into a different font each time. If these issues didn’t occur it would be fantastic.
This is a great app but it’s sad that we have to purchase certain things just to learn or understand what you want to know. The Bible is something sacred and you shouldn’t have to pay just to learn and have a deeper understanding of your religion and things as such
I use this at least 3-5 times a week in study, discussion, reference, etc., and it's the BEST Bible app I've ever used, including "non-Catholic" apps. I've been able to construct notes, highlights, and categorical citations with ease, and I am able to pull up verses related to content I need in seconds! Great App, and a great user interface!
I’ve used this app for awhile now and really like the layout, content, and all except whenever I listen to an audio program, I can’t see no “time duration” timeline indicating where I am on the listening program or if how many minutes are left to listen to. Would it be possible to add in a time line duration indication where I am when listening??
With all of the negative things that we have on my iPhone these days Ignatius Press and Augustine Institute have provided me with the Living Word of God anywhere anytime at my fingertips. WOW
Wonderful translation
Very good. Please make it more perfect by having the audio, not necessarly dramatized, for old testament. Thank you.
Great app to read and study Gods word! Highly recommend it. Also check out the content you can read and listen to.
Outstanding
I’m 62 years old and have read many translations, used many concordances, read many reflections and this Bible is the best, without a doubt. Insightful and thorough, connecting the dots like no other. I strongly recommend using this Bible as everyone’s “go to” Bible. You won’t be sorry.
Please add tile functionality to the app…Thx
It's just great. Only thing, we should be able to listen to the Old Testament as well. That would make the app complete.
What a great resource for bible study. So easy to find the verse you want quickly and easy to refer to earlier verses or continue your reading.
This app is supposed to contain the SECOND Catholic Edition of the RSV Bible; it does not. The text herein is that of the First Catholic Edition of the RSV. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED that this app wasn't properly vetted.
I am visually impaired and therefore have a difficult time reading. This gospel and dad’s audio ability is a lifesaver for me.
Love the app and the audio bible just wish the Old Testament was in the audio part as well
This app has audiobooks of the Bible Daily Readings and much more it’s perfect
I found this app many years ago. I journal, take notes writing articles and find this app a place to store all of my notes and thoughts. A few years ago I had to reset my tablet and when I did, I thought I had lost everything but after about a day it all came back. When God speaks to you and you keep a journal, it is good to see a pattern of how he is calling you in the journey. I recommend this for beginner and anyone doing biblical studies who wants to retain their thoughts and notes for a long period of time.
I love this artfully directed audio New Testament. How long will we have to wait for the Old Testament?
I don’t like that the New Testament audio skips words that I’m reading like, “then he said.” Also we need an audio for the Old Testament. And not those computer voices either because it sounds so off and words are not pronounced properly. Homely you can get this done soon.
This is a most valuable resource for any Catholic. The breathed Word of God at the touch of your finger tip. It is a daily blessing to have this available to me. I can share, instruct, study and be enlightened so easily at any given time of the day or night. I highly recommend this app to anyone who is pursuing a closer walk with God.
I use it often and love having the lighthouse media talks
This Bible app has it all. It uses the RSV-CE version, which is used by many Bible scholars. The ever-increasing explanations in both the New and Old Testaments are quite enlightening. The audio of the New Testament that is dramatically read is an amazing bonus. And lastly the ability to use tags, highlights, and notations on verses and access them so easily makes this my go to app that I use every day during prayer. An amazing resource for spiritual growth!
A powerful evangelization tool to allow the Holy Spirit to reach the hearts of all those who are exposed to this application. I would like to add something later when I have more time.
This easy to use and convenient app helps me stay on task with my faith… love the footnotes and ways to bookmark readings. I have been using it for years now and cannot imagine my life without it!
It’s wonderful to have instant access to both the Old and New Testament. Being able to listen to the New Testament fills time nicely when driving. I also enjoy the Daily Readings!
I can’t begin to thank you what a blessing this has been in my life. There is so much content to unpack here for any devout Catholic to learn scripture and the teachings of the church. It has Study guides, St. Ignatius notes, references to specific sections in the Catechism, Topical Essays, you can save and share favorite quotes with ease. But the notes have been the most helpful. I frequently utilize them and go to the CCC section it mentions. This Bible app is especially perfect for Catholic Bible studies and Catholic High school and College students. Keep up the good work. God bless.
I think this is disingenuous. The Ignatius Study bible is not free. It costs $20 extra.
I especially like the ability to corroborate verse with other scriptures ans read fine footnotes without losing yout place. This app allows you to listen to the NT with a timer. Just an all around perfect study guide with all the bells and whistles!
Why is the date for daily readings incorrect? Deleted and reloaded the app. No help.
The ‘unread’ bubble on the top right corner of the Related Content tab does not go away no matter how much I click through the content. The number will change but often settles on the number 6. This can be distracting. Otherwise, general menu UI needs polishing. Some of the boxes you click on when navigating the app look clunky and makes things feel not so smooth. Polish that UI!
I paid the $20 for what I thought was the full app. I only got the the Gospel of John read out loud. Do I need to pay $20 for each book of the New Testament?
Love the app and the dramatized voice ever feels like your there, the only thing I think would make it 120x better is the header and footer box Blue color, it’s very bright and annoying to look at when you are reading on the app, maybe if there was an option to change the color or just make it white or full screen text would be amazing
Great app Highly recommend it especially for Catholics.
