User Reviews

Users praise the app for readability, easy chapter navigation, and built-in notes/highlighting, plus cross-device use and optional audio. However, drawbacks include not being the original 1966 edition (1985 revision with gender-inclusive language), ads with no ad-free option, monotone audio, highlighting limitations, and incomplete indexing/notes compared to the original edition.
Pros
  • Easy-to-read translation with simple language
  • Clear navigation and easy access to chapters/verses
  • Notes and highlighting support for study
  • Works well on iPhone and iPad with readable text size
  • Optional audio feature available for listening
Cons
  • Not the original 1966 Jerusalem Bible; uses 1985 New Jerusalem Bible with gender-inclusive language
  • Ad-supported app with no ad-free option
  • Audio can be monotone or poorly produced
  • Highlighting can be difficult or inconsistent
  • Indexing misses content (e.g., Maccabees 1 & 2) and some notes from the original edition are absent
