Using the app isn't as intuitive as the older version. Each time I open the app recently, a window states new app being developed and out of date books need updated for format. Each time it indicates 2 books need updated with a data of 37.28MB. Same data amount and same number of books each opening of the app. I think there is a glitch. Beyond that issue, I am happy to have access to these writings as they are a blessing to read.

v7.0.1 is really, really good. I just upgraded a few days ago, and all the previous complaints appear to be addressed. (I haven't been able to test the sync between multiple devices in a while, so no comment on that...) I do have a new gripe, though: I used to be able to make and copy a huge selection, with the URL, without issue. Now, it copies a subset of the selection, adds ellipses, and the full URL. I would really like an option to restore the previous behavior, even if not the default.

This is a great app for those who want to study the writings of Ellen White or the other pioneers of our faith. I enjoy the audio feastures. Study center has been improved and I'd helpful. Most of the bugs have been worked out of the app. But I'd love to see some more features added. I would like to see an option for auto scroll. And I'd like the app to automatically open every book to where I was last reading (or listening).

Very useful app. So enjoyable to listen to chapter after chapter while working around the house or traveling. Organizing notes, bookmarks, underlining and highlighting into folders in the Study Center is very helpful. The EGW Children's Stories in the Reference section, along with all the other study materials, is wonderful to have available at any time. So many books and articles available for free! I highly recommend using this app often.

LOVE IT! Every book, letter, and statement can be found. it even has books from the pioneers of the Advent Movement. I love especially the Scriptural references with EGW quotes. And if I don't feel like reading, a lot of the books have an audio version I can listen to! it takes a little time learning how to navigate but well worth it. I only have one criticism is the the last update the citation is no longer included when you copy and paste.

I love this app!! I own quite a few of Ellen White's books, but definitely not all. And it's nice when having my devotions to have access for research. I love the Audiobooks section. My suggestion for something that needs to be worked on is this, it would be nice to have a selection of the Bible Audiobook that read the scripture without saying the number before each verse. I like to listen while I drive and it's distracting when they say the number before reading the verse, it doesn't flow.

Content and selection is good. I enjoy reading from the numerous options. One inconvenience is the highlights and bookmarks do not stay put. When I want to save my spot for next time. I place a bookmark, so I can pick up where I left off, only to find it missing next time I read. I also like to highlight certain good points, but those disappear too. So inconvenient and annoying.

I absolutely love this app. Great inspiration at one's fingertips. It has a great number of options for highlighting, note taking, referencing, search...I have hardly scratched the surface. The only thing I have not discovered...is how I can remove a highlight. I like to color code my topics, and once in awhile, I would like to change a choice to a more appropriate choice.

I love this app as a resource! However, I have to give it 3 stars because of some HUGE bug issues that NEED to be fixed. 1. Whole sentences and sometimes paragraphs are missing at random intervals as you read through books on the phone app. For some reason the computer version does not have this problem. 2. When I highlight or note something on my phone app, it does not save it to the computer version even though I am logged in with the same account. This makes study inconvenient.

I truly cherish this app. Having all of the spirit of prophecy books at my fingertips is priceless. I love that I can highlight and save special passages in the study center. The search feature allows me to look up hard to find passages for which I can only recall a word or phrase & this is one of the things I truly appreciate about this app. Once in a while, it may freeze but it's never a huge issue and doesn't last for long. The daily subscriptions are a plus. Very easy to use & nicely done.

This is such a great app for using Mrs. White’s writings. It does crash or not open occasionally but I don't know if that's the app or my phone. It can be difficult to search if you don't know the abbreviations. Would love more flexibility with the audio but overall very good. Love the ability to sign in and have a study center where I can save items!

Pretty good app overall. Search options are good for different writings. One thing I think is lacking is there is no way to search bookmarks, notes, etc. within the Study Center. Sometimes I don't have time to keep making new folders for different topics I'm studying. But I remember phrases so it would be nice to be able to pull those up.

This app meets most of my expectations. It is certainly better than the previous one and its search function works much better. The ability to bookmark and also save highlighted references so I can easily find them and return to them later is very good. The only drawback I have discovered is there is no way that I found so far to bookmark the audio books to go back later and continue listening where I left off. When I reopen the app it wants to start at the beginning of the chapter

This would get 5 stars if the data were saved on external memory. It is now 2 years later and although there is a choice to install it on external memory, it does not work even with a fresh install. It is buggy at times when listening to the audio and will stop on its own and later in the day it will begin reading on its own even with the app closed. Love the content. Keep with it since this is still a great app in spite of the small quirks.

I love this app. The only thing that bugs me is that when listening and reading along, if you stop and try to find where you were, it's almost impossible. It either does keep the same place or because it isn't divided into divisions you have to keep going forward or back to try and find your spot. I just end up relistening several times to stuff which is good for me but frustrating sometimes.

I love having access to all her books and I really like all the tools that come with this app. The only thing I would recommend upgrading is the audio reading. It sounds like an ai woman and it makes it hard to stay focused while listening due to her plain tone it's almost like listening to the dry eye commercial back in the day. Also being able to control the speed of the audio would be nice as well. And having an option to allow the audio to skip verses and references to other books.

A great app for personal study! I just wish the search functions weren't so specific and would be able to find something when you can't quite remember the wording used. It also needs some improvement on how to access the audio functions, both to start listening and to be able to skip ahead or skip back 10 or 15 seconds during playback or to be able to slide to a specific spot in the track. Also, it has been crashing a lot lately and the last two items available in the library refuse to download.

Great app, i enjoy using it. I was reluctant at first because i liked the other one but this one is great. Two things i wish can be improved are: I miss the ability to select an entire paragraph just by tapping the sentences like in the old app. And i wish in searching you can select the specific book that you want to search in (maybe it's there but i haven't figured it out) Keep up the good work 👍

I use this app almost exclusively for the audio books on my Android S9. This newest app version is way better for this purpose! When you close the app, you no longer lose your place, because, when you go to your listening history and select a book, it will resume playing wherever you left off. My only recommendation for improving is to make it so you can close the app and still have the audio running in the background, controlling it from the notificats menu. Overall, great update!!!

🙋‍♂I'll give it FIVE stars with a little caveat... Personally, I use King James version exclusively. But every time I want to look up a verse, I have to go through FOUR steps: 1. ALL COLLECTIONS 2. BIBLE 3. VERSIONS 4. KJV ➡️ It gets annoying... wasted motions... Maybe I'm missing it, but I'd like to be able to make KJV my DEFAULT look-up version EVERY TIME... I LIKE how you can designate certain portions of the text to be COPIED to OTHER LOCATIONS... The app is NOT PERFECT, but GOOD ENOUGH...✅
