About this app

The NKJV translation project was conceived by Arthur Farstad. It was inaugurated in 1975 with two meetings (Nashville and Chicago) of 130 biblical scholars, pastors, and theologians. The men who were invited prepared the guidelines for the NKJV.

Ratings and reviews

Awesome. Very easy to use. The books on one page with links is great. The ease of simply touching a verse to touch copy or share is excellent. And i havent even touched all the options yet. Highly reccomend it. After using it a while the one thing i really dislike is they added to scripture notes concerning what is coming next and it is not set apart from the scripture itself.

I couldn't find the app that I had on my other phone so I downloaded this one. It's okay but has some issues. For example, they didn't separate sub titles. They included sub titles as part of the previous verse. If you have not read the Bible 30 times like me, you wouldn't know that. You'd just be confused when you read it because it doesn't make sense in the context and is not always formatted in a proper sentence (because it's supposed to be a sub title, not a verse.

Some minor issues. In the middle of a chapter, if there is text that would normally be the heading for a page, that text will appear tacked onto the end of the last verse. Until you figure out why that's there, it is pretty confusing. Also, the contrast between the text and background in night mode isn't great. Other than that, this is a great app. There are ads at the bottom of the screen in the free version, but they are very unobtrusive.
