New Version

I was a user of the previously version. I really enjoyed the old interface and resources. I had stopped using the app for a period while they were having some growing pains, but I just recently downloaded the new version. Itll take some getting used to, but its clean and easy to navigate (plus all of my purchased resources are restored, AMEN!). If you dont like the new interface, give it a little time, I think most will grow to appreciate it.

Please Bring Back Old Version!!

This new interface is horrible. I now have no access to videos, maps, etc. the ability to quickly jump to the books of the Bible and the verse much faster with the previous version. I am afraid if you do not revert back you will lose my interest in this app. Sad because I paid $40 for this and the entire design and interface has now changed. Sad day!!

Not understanding the change?

Its unbelievable to Believe that theres individuals thinking this might be a better version of the Glo Bible.

Love it!

I only ever had the new version. But I love being able to take the verses out and reading it sans verses. And the commentaries are really good as well! The only thing Id love more is more translations, but that doesnt take away from how much I love this app.

Horrible Updates

I agree with all the users that have used this app in the past and have seen it steadily decline in quality. It has hit rock bottom. The team behind this app seem to be striving to drive it into obscurity, and the customer support is downright horrible! I sent in a "ticket" to them complaining that the app froze at the last page I had been using and that if I even touched the screen it would close. The first response I got, over a week later, was that my ticket had been opened for review and stated "We havent heard anything from you in 7 days on Ticket (#xxxxx). We are considering this ticket Solved." Solved how? By being ignored?! This app is headed for deletion. What was good is now trash.

Very disappointed

This is not a "trade-up". We used to be able to tap each verse for more in depth study......just to name one missing element. I agree with many of the other negative reviews. This is not a step forward. I had previously purchased the premium version but now that ends up being for nothing. I am very disappointed. Update not working. Tried several times and nothing happens. Nothing good to say.

Also disappointed in "new" version

Currently I have an update from Nov 30 that will not load. I keep getting an error. I have plenty of space and my other updates are loading. Please get this fixed so I can use my app. Also this was my favorite app. Since the upgrade I have lost all my original sermon notes which irritates me greatly. I wanted them in an app so I could have them for review and comparison. I also used to have various versions accessible and now I have to pay for those options??? Extremely disappointed and I recommended this app to many people.

Disappointing since updates

GloBible used to be my go to app for everything, but more importantly the Virtual Tours, used to show my kids in Sunday School the Tabernacle as if they were walking through it, Noahs ark, so many awesome tours. Now they updated the app and its nothing more than another bible. So sad that they have chosen to handicap the app like this. I wish i could get my money back, i paid for virtual tours, premium. Extremely disappointed, emailed support and they still have no time frame for virtual tours to come back and they apologize, soon they will have NLT version? Keep NLT, i have that everywhere, dont need it. What i need are virtual tours or my money back. If there was half a star i would give this half.

Thieves

I have used Glo for 4 years. I paid to get the ESV study Bible. Now they say it is a part of their premium service that you have to pay $5 a month for. I want my money back! How can a BIBLE APP just take away something I paid for??? Very disappointing. Do no trust this company!

Best Bible App

I have been using this app every day and love both the design and the functionality of it. I love the concept of having resources and media that are tied to the verses that I am reading. The user experience on this are clearly thought out and I love the navigation and search engine. As someone who appreciates aesthetics, I love the artwork, fonts, and look of the whole app which makes my devotional time all that more inviting. Definitely would recommend to anyone serious about getting deep in the Scriptures and who can appreciate beautiful design.

Extremely disappointed and developer is a thief

I purchased the Glo Bible App Esv version in 2013 and now they have removed the app and linked it to a new Bible app that does not have the items that were on the last app. The maps, pictures and virtual tours are gone. I loved this app and it was a gift and paid $35 for it. I want my money reimbursed, please. Do not pay anything to these people. Very dishonest. Very disappointed and lacking integrity

I love this app when it works

I love this app! It has a great selection of versions of Scripture. I really use the journal and highlighting. I really like how it works between devices. However, this app also has some difficulties. It still crashes a lot. It gets frozen on the beginning page on my iPhone. The only way for me to fix it is to uninstall and reinstall. I would love to have an update that would keep me from have to reinstall the app.

Nice but very unstable

I like it when it works. The store doesnt work, and it crashes way too often. Would like to see bugs fixed and to be able to have our notes be Free-form, and not be only created to certain scriptures. Many studies use several scriptures

Screen Mirroring for Smart TVs

It would be nice if they added a screen mirroring feature on this app for Smart TVs.

Used this APP for 5 years

Love this APP- I have used it for 5 years without a hitch. Great study Bible and the added features have made it more enjoyable. I refer to it almost every day. Could not recommend it more highly.

Come Back! I love this App!

I love GloBible! Just lost it yesterday after I either updated the app itself or the iOS on my iPhone. Im not giving up hope - there must be a fix for this. Now the logo is just fixed on the screen and it stalls there.

Need updates

First I lost the john MacArthur study bible that I purchased. Now I have no other versions but NIVandKJV where I used to have the message ESV. I am getting very frustrated it needs an update very bad. Every time there is an IOS update it just does not catch up!

Excellent program

Its about time!! Excellent Bible program is back. May it stay healthy!! I purchased an easy $60 plus over the last year. During that period the app purchases sometimes were partially recognized. It seems like they have finally fixed this!! So Im going to again put faith in and believe that they will leave it fixed

Problem not fixed :(

I have happily used this app for years. Have spent money on multiple add ons. I know they said that they fixed the bugs, and my app does not crash now, but it does not actually let me into the app; like its frozen on the glo screen. I cant take the chance of spending more money on something that I cant even use. I will be deleting it and replacing it with a reliable bible app.

Best bible app Ive used

This is a great app that has easy-to-use offline access.
