I absolutely love this app, especially the direct access to cross references. However I wish there was option to click and open just 1 translation full screen when needed. Sort of like the Sermon prep, but with all the cross references and links. It would also be nice when you open a cross reference, you could read the surrounding verses without the being greyed out. Otherwise, great job!

Here is how to open just 1 translation full screen: 1. Tap the three dots in the upper right corner. 2. Tap "Select versions". 3. Use the toggle buttons on the right to switch off the translations you want to hide, to reduce their number to one. Then you can make use of the “Choose a version set” option to quickly switch between your version sets.

Granted, it doesn't have all the bells & whistles that some of the other Bible apps come stacked with; however, you can at least take annotations. That being said, this is the only Bible app I've used for years now which I've actually found useful during in- depth studies. Comparing languages, editions, side by side-- alll nice & neat, with a built in BDB to top it off. It's especially fun on a tablet.

Excellent Bible app. Ad free(as a Bible ought to be), offline, with several translations. I like using the 2016 ESV and the 1995 NASB, and there's some options for Hebrew and Greek too. The Hebrew and Greek is a little clunky though, it doesn't give the possible translations of a word until you tap it, hit word study and even then it doesn't always give translations for that word. Wish that it had a bookmark feature for finding my place after jumping around while listening to sermons or studying
