User Reviews

Users praise Accordance for its thorough Bible library, strong original-language tools (Greek/Hebrew), and ease of use for serious study. The app works well as a fast, accessible companion to the desktop, with side-by-side language views and quick translation switching. However, users repeatedly report stability and reliability problems: frequent bugs and crashes on iOS, freezing, and overall instability. Sync across devices is unreliable, with highlights and notes sometimes lost or corrupted after removing Dropbox sync. Mobile features lag behind the desktop, and the search syntax can feel overly code-driven. It’s powerful, but needs polish and stability improvements.

Pros

Comprehensive Bible library with high-quality resources and strong original-language tools (Greek/Hebrew) and dictionaries.
Easy to use with fast searches and the ability to resume where you left off.
Excellent companion to the desktop, especially on iPad, with cross-platform access and side-by-side language comparisons.
Powerful features for serious study, including Greek/Hebrew word studies and quick translation switching.

Cons

Frequent bugs and crashes on iOS, with app freezing and instability.
Sync across devices is unreliable; highlights and notes can be lost or corrupted after Dropbox sync was removed.
Mobile features lack parity with the desktop; limited tool editing and some modules missing side-by-side views.
Search and UX feel non-intuitive and sometimes code-like; formatting issues.
Module download/update processes can be flaky, with large batch downloads failing.

Recent reviews

I have used the accordance iOS app for many years. I have a very large library. It has many small glitches that are annoying at best and debilitating at worst, and the list grows as time goes by. For example: The split screen line doesn’t stay where I place it. When switching between Accordance and another app, like notes or something else, Accordance loses its place. Often, it can take about 5-7 seconds to open the dictionary after tapping on a word. The app keeps defaulting to context all searches. Which is annoying. It’s just plain and simple that the app needs some serious love and development. If the developers would spend some time using the iOS app themselves it would be obvious what needs to be done.

Despite promises by the devs to fix the problem, there’s been no movement for months. I currently cannot sync notes or highlights between devices. It’s cast a serious shadow over my ability to study. 1* until fixed
