Ratings and reviews

Audio no longer works on Android 6. What a shame.

Don't waste your time. I was so excited when I found this app because I've always read the devotional booklet that I get at church, but when I discovered that there are only SEVEN total devotions on this app (they cycle through the same ones every week) I was soooo disappointed. What a useless app.

Suspiciously good customer service! There was an issue with the app that I reported, I got a quick response, they ask for further details to help and then even emailed me to let me know the issue had been fixed and there was an update available a few days later. Love the app, so worth the yearly subscription. Im just amazed at the quality of the service in this day and age.
