Review summary

The Cepher app is appreciated for its faithful translation and restored original names, along with useful features like lexicon, highlighting, and notes. Users value its affordability and range of books. However, multiple users express dissatisfaction with the lack of an audio option to listen to scripture, intrusive ads, and significant bugs introduced by updates including crashes, navigation problems, lost notes, and failed cloud sync. Additionally, issues around device transfers requiring repurchase and a worsening search function are noted. Despite these, many find it a valuable resource for study.

2025-01-02	Na*****	I already have a Cepher bible at home, I wanted to download this app because I thought there was an audio part to it. If there is an audio app for the Cepher please let me know. It would be great to listen in the car, i do drive over an hour 5 days a week.

2024-12-09	Ty*****	Imo, this translation is one of the closest we have to the real information in "English" format. As an American Indian, I really enjoy this translation. HalleluYah! Praise Yah!

2024-12-05	Ta*****	TOO MANY ADS! This is being done to push paying for ad removal. Wicked ! I have the printed Cepher and wanted app to use when physical copy is not available or practical. But ads are so intrusive and even open my other apps without permission. You may be losing a user very soon. 12/04/2024- This was very unprofessional response to customer experience. If you wish to investigate my issue further instead of attacking me I am open to it. Shalam/Peace unto you.

2024-11-10	Do*****	I found this app through watching videos of jontruth on Instagram, I am amazed at the work you all have done! Thank you so much for making this available and restoring the real names of scripture! I started down my path of seeking truth only a few short years ago, and I am so blessed to have come across your work! I'm saving now so I can purchase the printed edition. Hopefully, I'll be able to buy your collection of works. Thank you again!!

2024-11-09	Pi*****	It's a great Bible app to have, but for whatever reason you can't just simply download it to you new/other device(s) even if you're using the same account from the old/original device it was installed on. You have to purchase it all over again. I started to give it one or two stars because of this, but I'd give 5 stars otherwise and will when, if ever, they change it. But to everyone reading this, it actually is a great app and or book to have and worth it.

2024-10-27	We*****	I love to have all these great apographa and pseudepigrapha downloaded on my phone for such a good price! The translation is a bit... biased? I don't know if that's the right word. It's not wrong exactly, just not what I expected.

2024-09-16	GL*****	Before the last update, I enjoyed being able to navigate through the books, chapters, and verses with ease and quickly. Now, I get frustrated trying to navigate through the app. What happened?? I've had to use another app to find what I need in an efficient manner. In the search, I could type in the book, chapter, and verse, and it pulled it up immediately. Now, there's no telling what comes up. Please, make better like it was - Please!

2024-09-02	mb*****	I LOVE the restored, original Hebrew names and cities, but the search has gotten worse with this latest update. Most times I search for a book & chapter, I still get 'No results found' Ex ..search Job 1. The old app returned Job Chapter 1. The new app does not. I still see 'an unhandled error has occurred' when using the back button. Thanks for restoring the swiping! I added a star! Sadly, searching is still an issue, though. Some books are fine, but others are not found. See example above.

2024-08-17	Jo*****	The best and most accurate Bible app What would take it over the top, or if you guys can add or offer also. Is the other books from Mr. P's collection. So many times I've needed them on hand when I was not home.
