Ratings and reviews

This app is brilliantly made. The ui could use a little work cause some buttons are hard to press cause they're small. And there could be a tutorial for beginner users. but having the ability to scroll through multiple versions of the Bible alongside each other is amazing.

Best Paralell Bible app available. I find the layout clean and simple. There is more here than meets the eye. Word and verse studies are really nice. Some have complained about the interface being outdated. I find it refreshing AND not distracting. I dislike dual screen apps that force new screens to compare. This app is almost perfect. Make sure auto rotate is turned on. I use this on both my phone and PC. I keep it handy while reading my paper Bible. Hoping to see the UASV in the app.

Best Ive used for in-depth study. Very good search functionality--some of the best I've found. The Greek language search is snappy and one-click awesome. Where it really shines is the ability to read multiple versions in parallel, and run diwn other references while keeping your place in rhe root passage. My only complaint is that the GUI is a little clunky when going to a specific verse. If not for that, I'd give it 5 stars.
