User Reviews

Users praise The Scriptures for its strong search across books and straightforward reading, but recurrent stability and compatibility issues hamper the experience. Crashes/freezes after iOS updates, D&C access problems, and loss of last reading position are commonly mentioned. Highlighting tools can misbehave or be paywalled, and some users report iPad compatibility problems. A few still consider it a longtime, dependable tool when functioning properly.
Pros
  • Strong, accurate search across all scriptures with concise results.
  • Long-standing, reliable app for reading and studying the scriptures.
  • Simple, clean interface that makes reading and navigation easy.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes/freezes after iOS updates; requires reinstall or restarts.
  • Doctrine and Covenants (D&C) and some books won't open; navigation issues.
  • Highlighting features often don’t work or are limited; readability/color issues; some features behind a paywall.
  • App loses last reading position and often returns to the home screen on launch.
  • Occasional device compatibility problems (e.g., iPad) affecting startup or access.

No scripture app has ever Topped this one for years. The search results are accurate and concise. Other apps are bulky and a mess. Honestly I truly love this app! I only hope he makes and update for iPhone 16 iOS.
