  • Doesn’t work!

    I was very excited for this app but it doesn’t even work. I open the app and the the loading wheel just spins forever. I can’t click on any of the studies or articles. I even tried deleting and reinstalling and it made no difference. Very disappointing.

  • Table of contents?

    I click a bible version and it takes me to the first book of the Bible. There doesn’t seem to be a table of contents. I can’t click to go to another book. That makes it pretty useless to me. I found it.

  • Straight up blasphemous

    This app goes against scripture and God Himself by affirming all sorts of sin, avoid at all costs.

    I was so excited to find this app and to read some devotionals that had perspectives I usually don’t see!! But like the other reviewers have said, the app has way too many premium only content and is 8.99 a month. I wasn’t sold on the three devotionals open for me, and since there’s no trial period, I’ll probably delete the app. Especially since it seems there hasn’t been much attention on the reviews. I’m disappointed but it was still nice to see as an app. Great idea, wish it was more accessible, understand that y’all need to get money somehow.

  • confused and disappointed

    umm so, i downloaded this app because i read that it was a affirming and inclusive bible app for LGBTAI2S+ community. the app is poorly made, and cannot function properly. the bible should be behind a subscription. this app and ALL its features should be free… this app needs to be open and accessible to everyone… i like the idea of this app but it was poorly made and executed. honestly, i felt really hurt that i have to pay to read about our faith and the content of the affirming app…

  • Unaffordable for the people who need it most

    I downloaded this app soon after it originally came out and I actually had a premium subscription that first year. But when it came time for my renewal, the price had gone up and it was just too unaffordable. I thought I would redownload it now and see if they'd gotten enough pushback and lowered the price, but instead the price has gone UP since the last time, and now there are NO free devos—their website is still advertising five free devos per month and a $4.99/month price point, but now there are no free devos and it's $8.99 per month. It's honestly sad, because there are a lot of marginalized people out there who really need this kind of content in the face of mainstream exclusionary Christianity, but they're being priced out here. If the subscription price was lower or if they offered tiers, they'd be more likely to have more people subscribing and they'd still be bringing in the same amount of revenue. But as it stands, looks like I'm deleting again.

    Read the real Bible. God loves everyone, no need to change His word

  • Not the right remedy

    There are some refreshing topics in here (especially regarding race), but there seems to be a lot of bashing against our more conservative brothers/sisters. If a devotional series on an ancient Middle Eastern book lines up with a modern, American (Western) worldview/movement it’s a cause for concern. Others are very Republican (not great). These come across as advicacy points for the Democratic Socialists of America dressed up in Biblical language (again, not great). Let’s deconstruct the right stuff, folx. Also, the paywall …

  • Meh

    It’s good to have a more progressive Bible app, but by now almost everything is behind a paywall, so if you have the free version, it’s barely useable.

  • A good app!

    I’m so glad a Bible app like this exists! I’m a LGBTQ+ Christian and I love that I can see people like me! There are a few gripes I have with this app though. First, and I understand why this is done, but I think there are too many premium devotionals and not enough free ones. I think it is important to support an app like this, but for the people who can’t support the app monetarily but could really use the devotionals, it’s a bit disappointing. The other thing, which is a technical error, is that I’m not able to join the LGBTQ+ Christian chat group. I was able to join other groups but every time I try to access the LGBTQ+ Christian chat it won’t change from the white join button to the purple chat button. Overall though, I really like that an app like this is available, and I do recommend it despite the things I don’t like about it. Thank you, Our Bible!
