User Reviews

Verbum is praised for its deep, Catholic-focused library and powerful cross-referencing, highlighting, and quick access to source texts. It’s valued for building a personal library and affordable subscription. However, users cite frustrating navigation after UI updates, a less intuitive search, performance issues (lag and highlighting crashes), expensive store content, and some platform stability differences. Overall, its strengths in depth and accessibility compete with notable UX and stability drawbacks.
Pros
  • Rich, cross-linked Catholic study library with commentaries, interlinears, maps, and Latin texts, plus quick pop-up references.
  • Easy reading and highlighting, with chapters opening where you left off.
  • Powerful cross-reference feature that pops up source texts and links to related church documents.
  • Builds a personal library with a wide volume of resources and an affordable subscription with a monthly free book.
  • Long-standing reliability and strong support from users who have used Verbum for years.
Cons
  • Frustrating navigation and a recent UI overhaul that requires many clicks to reach a purchased book and removed or obtrusive dashboard features.
  • Search functionality and general UX feel unintuitive after updates, with results that are not helpful.
  • Performance issues: lag, instability, and highlighting crashes, especially on iOS.
  • Store content is very expensive and the subscription changes are unwelcome to some users.
  • Cross-device inconsistencies and stability differences (iOS lags behind Android).

I cannot remember what it was like to write Holly or research texts or read the Bible before Verbum. I also cannot imagine doing those things now without Verbum. This has completely reinvented the way I approach the Sacred texts and engage my faith. on a few occasions that I have needed to get tech-support they have been fantastic. on one occasion, I needed to change my default payment details and again they were very helpful at Faith Life. I highly recommend this tool to any preacher or student who is interested in a well balanced / powerful learning and teaching tool.

I love Verbum, been using it for years in doing catholic research, study, personal reading and for writing homilies. With A1 becoming so useful I wonder if a Verbum A1 assistant might be on the horizon? It sure would be helpful to me.
