Niv Study Bible App Reviews

Edited: ever since the last update, this app freezes every time I open it. I’m no longer able to use the app. Please fix this! I have appreciated studying the word with this app. It's really helpful to be able to read the word and glance over at the study notes without having to hunt for the related note. The app has made Bible study more pleasurable for me, specially since my vision is not that great, so reading a print Bible can be uncomfortable. However, I recently bought one of the commentaries. Ever since, I have had a lot of difficulty figuring out how to display the Bible, the notes, or the commentary when I want them. I think I may have figured it out now, but it literally took a couple of weeks. At first I could just see the commentary, then I was able to get the commentary and the Bible next to each other, but I couldn't get back the study notes. I guess once I figure it out, I will enjoy, but right now, it's annoying.

LOVING IT.

I have used the hardback paper edition this study Bible for years and always found it useful. Especially on controversial passages it is usually quiet fair in presenting differing viewpoints. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to navigate the app version of this very helpful book. I heartily recommend it.

I love this app. The only improvement I would like to see is the ability to use my Apple Pencil to write notes. It is awesome to have the study notes to look at as I read the text!!

This is an excellent application for phone use. It allows the user to access to the Bible any and all times of the day.

If there is a way to see more than one translation at a time, I certainly can’t find it. Using an iPhone X, I can only see one version at a time. I find no access to any help features. Basically, this is not useful to me.

Do not like wheel for book, chapter and verse. The old method was much better and a lot faster. Otherwise very good. Is it possible to change back to the previous method of selecting book, chapter and verse?

Great UI

This is the best study bible out there, and I've tried several. The regular Bible app is a good freebie, but this beats the Glo Bible app if you're willing to pay for the extra resources.

In iOS this app is terrible. The interface does not allow easy change between translations. If there is way to change Bible translations, it is not intuitive. If don’t need to use more than one translation this is a very good app and access to different books of a particular bible is easy.

Love this app. Makes daily bible study so easy. I can see multiple translations and study guides at the same time while I'm taking my own notes. Fantastic. Then, later if I want to remember the study I did that morning on my ipad, I can open my iphone and read it there. Great job.

This is a very easy to use and intuitive study Bible. Took me less than 5 minutes to figure out and use the study features and there is so much more.

This Bible app is wonderful. The study guide is so helpful and gives you the other places in the Bible on a given story . This app makes it so much easier to study the Bible. I had another Bible app that just wasn’t as easy and helpful to use. So glad I have this one now.

When I purchased your bible app I did so believing that you get what you pay for. I tried free apps with the audio feature but it didn’t last long before they shut it off and advised me that I had to start paying for it to continue. So I payed about $17.00 for you’re app and about a week later you told me the same thing. That I would have to start paying to continue the audio feature. I don’t have the words express my disappointment in you’re tactics!! I mean really! A bible company using sneak attack tactics like this! There was no mention of this in you’re add! I will be deleting the entire app within 24 hours and I want my money back!!!

This app fixes what Apple broke when they separated and the podcast and audio apps

I use this app several times a week to check references in scripture. I love that it is always with me.

I can't say enough good things about this eBible. It has so many useful features, and I seem to discover new ones or new combinations frequently. I particularly am impressed with how I can go through a chain of notes and cross references by finger touch and then return to my original location instantaneously. When I was having difficulty trying to use one feature, I used Help and got an email response within hours. Clearly a lot of thought went into this product.

I love having this bible in my phone and it can tag so many of my good things.

While using the app, if my iPad goes to sleep, any open resource on the right side will jump back to the beginning. I have the preachers commentary and some of the sections can be long. If I am teaching and don’t keep my iPad awake, when I resume I’ve lost where I am at. I’ve turn off the sync with bible and that didn’t help.

Tecarta’s NIV Study Bible is technically sound, regularly supported, infinitely expandable and easy-to-use. Whether one wants only to read the Word or deeply study and compare events surrounding the scriptures, this application will not disappoint. Make side by side comparisons to other Bibles, navigate to cross-referenced passages, highlight verses, review furnished study notes highlighted by icons, organize and save personal notes, enjoy maps, illustrations, photos and videos ... so much but so usable for ANY user. Though I could write much more, I recommend reading the fact sheet to see if the features meet your needs .. and then having confidence that you can easily use this application even if you’re a technology novice.

Love the verse of the day and daily devotion

I feel so blessed! Even though life is hard; knowing that HE is in the heaven waiting for His Own, makes it a great deal smoother. But, mainly I am thankful that you guys made the NIV Bible available online, so everyone who seeks comfort and truth can pick up an electronic iPad and find their God!

I absolutely love this app and its functions with multiple translations and study materials. I use it every day. Fantastic! If there is any chance for additional improvements, I look forward for that. Like to see hyperlink capability for the personal notes. God bless! J. Abraham

This makes studying so much easier which makes it more likely that I’ll actually study. And after all, isn’t that what it’s all about? I have the devotional of the day turned on and read that every morning and that gets me started. From there I start cross referencing verses from different books with the easy to follow guides and read notes along the side that help clarify difficult to read passages or give information about the time period. Before I know it I’ve been reading for 30 minutes to an hour. I love it.

the book is awesome, but the low resolution of audio bothers me a lot to pay arrentiin to the bible meditation.

This ap is so easy to use! I take all my notes on it and I now can do my life group studies without having to find a bunch of papers!

This Bible app is much more than I originally thought it would be when I first purchased it. And I keep discovering more ways to use it! It's great for just reading, of course. Easy to search for what book and chapter I want to read and easy reference for topics. Plus here's a bit of the "so much more": * A verse of the day, daily devotional, and tip of the day. I set these so that I see them when I first open my iPad, so I can read any of them, all of them, or none of them that day. * Very interesting and helpful charts that teach me things about both the Old and New Testaments. * Historical and cultural context before each new book in the Bible and, if you would like, a running guide to the chapter and verses that accompany any part of the Bible you are currently reading. I'm guessing that what I just wrote is already in the description of the app. But I haven't seen that since my purchase. So I'm simply telling you what I've discovered that is so helpful and enriching for me. There are likely more things I have yet to discover. :D

Great

I serve in a bilingual church and it's wonderful that the app allows me to have two languages side by side along with notes and other features that are easily accessible and easy to use. All my personal notes, highlights are always there for me to reference and print. I would highly recommend!

Love the app still

Best thing that has happened in my life. This has changed it forever...

Once you get the hang of it you can maneuver all over the Bible study notes, etc. These folks did a really good job in putting this app together!

This is an amazing app!!!!

I LOVE 💘 this Bible version and print.

Just like the print version only better. Interactive definitions and commentary. I have this app on all my devices.

I use this app regularly for every day Bible usage. Perfect for reading, searching, studying, note taking and posting.

I love it!

There are many bible apps, and I have quite a few on my phone, but this one is my favorite. All the options they provide make you feel like you have your Bible open on your lap with pen in hand. I highly recommend this app.

Definitely worth the money..My favorite app

Love the app and what is provides. The capability for specific notes or folders is great. Only improvement item is better instructions for how to share multiple notes at one time. My desire is to "select all" to download all my notes but I can't find instructions to do this, versus selecting each not individually.

I cannot say enough good about this app SOOOO WORTH EVERYTHING ❤️

This app is useful in so many way......1 I don't have to carry my bible around. 2 the definitions l& cross refs. 3 The search button. 4 being able to change to audio. You can bookmark things. 5 take notes. You change font, fine size, you highlight in different colors, audio speed & more....and lots of different bibles to try! A lot at your finger tip, actually to much for me....lol

Easy to use and navigate throughout the Bible. I love how easy it is to click on a verse that is referenced in the commentary and immediately be able to read it. It's also great to be able to select a word and get it's definition. Nice commentary as well. The pictures and maps are a great compliment as well.

This app is truly an amazing tool for all Christians to use in their daily Bible reading & study. The ability to add different study bibles & devotionals into 1 app is truly exceptional.

I use my iPad Pro for all reading. This app gives me everything I want to keep in touch with what is most important.

I have really enjoyed using this app. Has good features and good commentary.

This is a wonderful bible app. The cross references, definitions, maps and images, and study notes/commentary - it has everything. Very thankful and worth the purchase.

I truly love this program. The more I use it the better it gets. There is one thing that would be nice and that would be to be able to write notes with the pen or write in the margins.

A real blessing in my life. Struggling with indifference in my life...I thank you for this ‘gift’ of the Bible on my iPad, phone and computer. I really like the new audio reading of the scripture.

If u need to study the Bible, don’t look further, this is it!
