About this app

This NLT Bible app is an English translation that has been around since 1996. The New Living Translation Bible (NLT) originated from a revision of The Living Bible. What makes this version of the Holy Bible stand out from other editions is that this one relies on critical editions of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. This resulted in a translation of the original text that is easy to read, accessible and manages to convey the message and thoughts of the original text.

This app of the Holy Bible is engaging and is rich with features designed to make the user read the bible in a way that is personal to them. Listed below are the main features available to the user.

Ratings and reviews

I have low vision so I have to turn the font and zoom all the way up on my phone. even with the settings this way the app seems to work pretty well. I've been looking for a app that has the NLT version and this seems to be okay so far. I'd like to be able to choose from more different fonts that are easier for me to see, so maybe they'll add that in the future. sucks that the ad at the bottom takes up a lot of screen space that I could be using to view the text. I need a larger font than 40

I enjoy it's a word for word translation as I feel it gives a better idea of what is being said. I also like the search feature for finding specific scripture. I would like to have an instruction chapter in the front of the book telling how to use all the computer features. As an older user, greater than 70 years old, I find it more difficult to use the Help feature or figure it out on your own, compared to younger people. Other than this, it's a VERY GOOD Bible version to read.

This Bible app is not like youversion where you can reach out to other people and have them like your Bible verses that you highlight and post. This app allows you to make notes on the verses you want to underline, search keywords in different scriptures, and follow Bible plans to read the entire Bible in one year. They have three different ways that you can read the whole Bible in one year. There are so many features that I didn't have time to explore. I would definitely get this app.
