This app was great at first. I love the concept. It has great ideas. Sharing a plan with a friend or relative. Seeing one another's input would be great encouraging. Unfortunately the app does not work, no help either.. it's too bad. It would be nice to have others to communicate with. Any ideas, I'm sure open to it

Ik vind het gebruik van deze bijbel -ap wel fijn. Je kan snel een bepaald bijbelvers opzoeken of door middel van een paar steekwoorden vinden wat je specifiek zoekt. Maar de luister versie van bijvoorbeeld een leesplan is uitgevoerd door middel van AI. Dat is io zich niet erg maar doe dan wel een eindcontrole alvorens het de mensen bereikt. Zodat het ook helemaal klopt. Bijbelvers nummers uitspreken alsof het ineens een tijdsaanduiding is, getuigt niet van veel kwaliteit en doet afbreuk aan de Bijbel, hetgeen is Gods Woord: Heilig en Waarachtig. Liever hoor ik een echt persoon die de overdenkingen uitspreekt met intonatie.

Some of us don’t even have extra $10 every month and asking us for $25 every month to spread the word of God is not welcoming. It turn off new born again and sinner’s alike. Let people donate if they feel like.

I like the ability to highlight and take notes on verses. I don't like to highlight my physical bible so if I'm reading in that and find a verse that I want to highlight or write a note on, I just open up the youversion app and make my notes there. I do agree with others who've mentioned some questionable teachings for some of the bible plans. This is a great place to get into scripture regularly, but not a great place to learn sound doctrine. For example, I just read in one of the devotions today that Jesus spoke in parables because "there's power in a story". That is completely unscriptural and Jesus himself states why he spoke in parables. I don't know if the people who write these don't actually know scripture, or if they are misusing it for the sake of making a point in their devotion. But someone should be proof reading these to make sure that they are not teaching lies.

Tell Rachel Scott to slow down! I love your app but remember that not everyone can understand your USA accent when your words tumble out at 100mph!! I speak here for all the kiwis in NZ. Ngā mihi nui. Gary

I’ve noticed that within the Plans, some Bible verses are repeated. For example, the devotional and verses for Day 1 and Day 15 were the same. This is a bit disappointing, as there are hundreds of verses throughout Scripture that could be used to convey the message for that specific plan.

I agree with others - why do they keep adding functionality/complexity to the youversion app? Seems like every week, something new to deal with pops up. It's getting so cluttered, I'm starting to consider other bible apps.

I used to love the simplicity of having the Bible app tailored to my needs like the different versions, audio choice and a plan here and there. What has happened in the last couple of years is it has become so cluttered with plans, the UI is confusing, I dont know where I’m going if I tap somewhere and the random people talking is just confusing and takes me away from what I came to the YouVersion Bible for THE BIBLE. I understand the Bible has to reach people where they’re at but no amount of talking, blogging or discussion will be useful if the app is not designed to ACCESS the Bible quickly and navigate it easily always directing you to God’s Word. It’s all just NOISE and we all know that noise is confusion and confusion does NOT come from God.
