I searched and searched for an inexpensive audio Bible app suitable for me as a Catholic and in this GNT app, I found it!! According to the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Good News Translation, Catholic edition, is acceptable for private devotional use. I love how you can easily bookmark and pick up again where you left off, and move easily from book to book and switch to a different chapter or book. I’ve only listened so far to New Testament books but I have to say that the person doing the reading does an EXCELLENT job (in my opinion). He reads as if he understands what he’s reading and this makes a huge positive difference! Show more

I have been looking for an audio that I can read along with. The only problem I have is paid for no ads but still getting them . I really enjoy the audio . It’s perfect! Thank you! Show more

The App said $3.99 for continuous play and ad removal but the amount charged was $4.99 and ads are still popping up after every chapter. Wish I could get my money back. Show more

Finding ads is bad enough, but to place ads that seem inappropriate have just made me delete this app. It analogous to a state legalizing marijuana because of a shortfall in the budget. Some things simply should happen especially with the Bible. Show more

After I paid the $4.99 for continuity of the Bible chapters and elimination of advertisements, the ads keep popping up distracting from my meditation. I am forced to turn to the add and manually turn it off each time. Show more

The voice is obviously computer generated. The computer does not always make the proper pronunciation choice when it comes to homographs. Also, some of the names are mispronounced. The voice is is rather flat without emotion and the Bible verses sound like a bunch of run on sentences. Nonetheless,I am grateful for this rendition and will continue to use it as some books in the Old Testament are quite boring yet deserve to be read. Thank you. Show more

I enjoy this app, but would like to have easier to get to the next chapter within a book of the Bible.

I read one of the reviews I have the same problem. Really love the Bible on my phone. But it’s hard to see the verses, they disappear and you kind of have to move up and down to find. I’m not sure what happened bible was perfect when I started. Show more

Can we have access to highlight our favourite passages or verses and they stay highlighted permanently? Can we slide or flip the pages to the next chapter as we slide to read the next page of a book? Thank you Show more

On the iPhone, the list of books can't be read because they overlap to the point of hiding each other. Hard to go to the book you want when you can't see them listed. Show more

I so muchLove the App. Let the spirit of God keep doing great job to you all working to spread the Good News of Our Lord Jesus. Carrying the world of God with me everywhere i go makes me feel secured. Improved my relationship with God as i can read the bible at any given time. So simple to read and i understand. This is 10 star app. Certainly i will try the audio version. Much love people of God God bless Show more

Great bible app, please include footnotes and deuterocanonical books. God bless.

Reads well and the audio worked okay. I didn’t like the sound of the computerized voice. It sounds cold and inhuman.

Great start every day reading with this app

So much easier to read due to not having to read it as originally written with all the “ Dosts” “believiths” type of words & it brings with it a nice updated flow for reading. Perhaps I missed this, I haven’t found where I can highlight a section to look up more clarification to its meaning in your app. I see where it can be saved. Otherwise it’s wonderful to read wherever I go. I’ve never sat down & read the Bible in my life & now at 67 yrs I am able to do this anywhere. Thank you for this opportunity to find I was not living as Christ-like a life as I thought I was. Now I feel I have a much better chance of getting into heaven. May Jesus Christ continue to bless your work. Show more

I love reading the Good News Bible, Especially the Beautiful stories about the book of Judith, I believed everyone should purchased a Good News Bible

The only suggestion I would make is to be able to transition from one chapter to the next with a “next” button.

It’s a very good book and makes for a very good read. It’s well organized and easy to use, especially when looking for a particular chspter or section to read. My only suggestion to improve is on the audio version. It’s rather dry and does not deliver the message well. It would be best if one can have a real catholic priest or lector who is familiar with the story, and has been a real Bible reader at a live mass like the ones who do the readings in The Sunday Mass of the Passionist Community and who know how to deliver the message in each passage, could read and deliver the audio version, it would be perfect. As it is, it’s good enough. I just turn off the audio, so I can appreciate the message and not be distracted by the monotone reading. Show more

Excellent

I Truly Love ❤️ this bible app. Especially because I’m able to read some Old Testament Bible reading such as the book of Tobit, Judith which is not in the King James Version Thank you so much!!! Show more
