## Review summary

Reviewers consistently praise Literal Word for its clean UI, fast performance, and strong word-study tools (quick searches, organized results, and Hebrew/Greek lexicon access with highlighting). The app’s broad translation selection and privacy-friendly, distraction-free experience are also valued. A recurring concern is the desire for more translations, notably NKJV (and ASV), suggesting translation coverage is the main area for potential improvement.

### Pros

- Clean, user-friendly interface with fast, responsive performance.
- Robust word-study features: quick scripture lookup, results organized by Bible sections, history of searches, and easy access to Hebrew/Greek meanings while reading, plus color highlighting.
- Strong original-language lexicon support for deeper study.
- Wide selection of translations (including LSB) with appreciation for accurate, word-for-word translations.
- Privacy-first and distraction-free experience (no data collection) and the app is free to use.

### Cons

- Requests for broader translation coverage, especially NKJV (and mention of ASV) as missing options.
