This app is lukewarm. The verse of the day pops-up, then a secular commercial. Three things I would like to see improved would be: First, a few colors for highlighting [Example: Green, yellow, and blue. Second, more Bible translations. I thank you for making the Bible easier to access when I am on the go. I would rate this app a 5 but until I see these improvements, I will not change.

frustrating. constantly getting an ad when I open it and I can't shut the ad. I have to close the app and open it again. also, it was emailing my reading program to me and suddenly this week, it stopped. I've tried to reset it to no avail. I've written them about the issue. still nothing. I'm done.

I've used Bible gateway since before it was an app and am so disappointed with the ads totally taking over the screen and not letting you proceed for close to a minute. I used to x out and start over, but even that doesn't work anymore. I've pretty much swapped over to another app that doesn't have all the commentary resources I like because the ads are about the worst I've ever seen as far as no way to close out or get past them. Very disappointing - and they're not even Christian-related ads.

Thank you for your feedback regarding ads, Melissa. We're sad to hear the ads have been frustrating for you. All ads should have the option to x out of them after a few seconds. We'll pass your feedback along to the appropriate team. Ads let us make Bibles freely available world-wide; https://www.biblegateway.com/info/advertising
