I have used this app for years It is my favorite Bible app I love the drop down method to find a reference much easier than e swords Recently though my iPhone alerts me when I open PocketSword that it needs to be updated and that it may no longer work when I update my iPhone and to please contact the developers and ask them to update That is not word for word but that s the gist of it I don t want to lose this app please consider updating                     Please update TracyinOhio

Love this app But if it is not updated it won t work on iOS 11                     Love it Please Update it Gitarzzan
This is the best SWORD based product out there It s easy to use and very intuitive unlike others Best of all is the price Great work Nic Update 2017 App works great with iPad Be sure to download additional modules such as dictionary and commentary for an in depth enhanced study experience I have been using this App for a few years now and it is by far my go to bible app for looking at scripture more closely such as Hebrew Greek clarification and bible study The integrated Strong s Greek and Hebrew is awesome Download a good dictionary from Crosswire which built within the app and have the app index it The more you use it the more you will appreciate its powerful capability and no I am not a pitchman for any company or the developer I just want people to be blessed as they trove the treasure of God s Word                     Serious study tool Mr_Movie
Please update this app I would hate to lose it                     Great for non English versions Bry Jay
Live the app with a plethora of bibles and tools The search feature does not work Constant reminder that it won t work with future iOS updates unless developer updates This program is one of my two bible apps I pull up when I m reading searching on the phone                 Good program with failing drinkKavaKava
Great app historically But installed it on a new iPhone and the search function does not work It asks about downloading an index then crashes             Used to love it but IReViewerHWM

I really love the app but it need to be updated                     I love the app azubel
Just curious as to when this app will updated With Apple s new feature that lists apps that will not be available for use due to a lack of updates this app shows up It would really be a shame if it s not updated and able to be used                 App Update Life with Steve
UPDATE I need help getting my years of bookmarks into my new phone and I haven t found developer contact info They have always come in with a restore until this 7 plus upgrade Please post some help or contact me if possible When I want to bookmark a verse I use THIS APP because it allows users to make and name color coded folders When a bookmarked verse is stored in a COLORED folder the text of that verse is always displayed in that color when reading any version of the Bible You can also bookmark verses without assigning them to a specific folder What makes this bookmark system so very helpful for me is that every time I bookmark a verse I can make a personal note which for me is the reason or specific value if this verse to me When I first bought my iPad mini I loaded it with lots of Bible apps I now have eliminated all but 3 which are Pocket Sword for bookmarking eSword because it s the best of the best for study and Holy Bible by YouVersion because it offers the best SPEAKER option When you download versions with the speaker icon you can have any part of the Bible read out loud setback and relax and listen listen while driving or listen to a pleasant voice read passages at your bible study Many people do not enjoy reading aloud so this is a perfect solution to that All three APPS I use allow me to download everything I want to use so it is always available OFFLINE                     Great BOOKMARKING System AskLifeCoach
I enjoy using this app But I had never received an update are there any available Having an iPhone 6 Plus it alerts me that this app needs to be updated                     Updates 2shopper22
This was once my all time favorite Bible app In the past week it started failing to provide search results for words and Strong s numbers I ve tried deleting and reinstalling multiple times Please fix this It was once so great and such a blessing I ve sent a request with no reply back Help I miss being able to use this app     Once great app what happened Motormouth111
This app is good if you need it for some languages The app that works the best for me and has recourses and videos that help with your personal study and with the family is JW org They have there own website and app and I highly recommend the JW org app         Looking Huffs object
I like everything about this app First choice all day The only thing is I used to be able to search which is one of the big parts of the app for me But as of a few months now or so I can t search When it asks to download the search module and I accept it just freezes up and closes                     Great app Spirit>Flesh
This is the app that every Bible Student must have It has an incredible amount of offline resources to use                 Supersedes All
This Is My Favorite Bible But Has Big Problem For Me For Example in Persian Language All Chapters Name in English And i Cant Understand Please Update And Change Chapters Language When We Chose Another Language thanks                 The Best But
Love the commentaries and dictionaries feature Please update the icon this one doesnt look very nice                 Nice to see an free software Bible app
The amount of information you have access to using this app is beyond what one would expect from a free app But I have the KJV MHCC commentary as well as entire concordance and that is just some of what is offered in a very simple cohesive format for one to casually read or embark on deep Biblical studies It is truly priceless                 The best Bible app by far
The commentaries is what I use the most Rich deep very useful My major source for bible study                 The Absolute Best Bible study tool
Praise Yahuah that this app is in the App Store Highly recommended The ISR version is found here plus KJV with what looks like a very thorough if not complete Strongs Concordance                 A must have for anyone looking to walk the narrow path
Love the updates you guys made                 One of my favorite apps
I like it allot but I would LOVE to save my bookmarks to transfer to other phone with the same app Yes              I like but
Very good app and extensive study features but just wish I could find a NKJV in one of the modules              Great app
My favorite bible app                 Best best ever
They removed Calvins Commentaries dont respond to queries        Disappointing update
So Thankful for this app                 Bible Reading
Great But Please change your icon And maintenance mode bug D                 Lovely but
Great Bible app Module maintainer mode is not working for this version on my ipad air2 and mini 2 Iphone version in OK though Please fix this error Thank you              iPad support
Thank you for the app I use it for the Arabic Version of the Bible                 The best
Most flexible app                 None
This is by far my favorite Bible app It is easy to use and I love being able to download extra Bibles in the original languages that have Strongs Concordance numbers as well as morphology info One thing that would make it better I think would be iCloud backup When I update my iPhone it doesnt save all the data for Pocket Sword such as which modules Ive already downloaded and which dictionaries are my preference If it could sync so that the modules could be saved even after software updates that would be great instead of having to redownload them every time                 Favorite Bible App
This is a great app but it needs the function to HIGHLIGHT Once it has HIGHLIGHTING Im going to give it a 5 Star              Great app
The review says it all The Sword Project provides a wealth of multi language content It will absolutely give you the tools you need But it looked cheap and dated on release looking even creakier now after the release of iOS7 Time to bring it in line with Apple standards maybe              Great content needs a facelift
This is app is without a shadow of a doubt one of the richest treasures I have With it I have free access to Gods Word in many faithful translations and commentaries by faithful bible teachers like Matthew Henry John Calvin John Gill and Charles Spurgeon Your soul will thank you for downloading this gem                 Purest Gold
Ive been using this app on my iPhone for some time and I want to download it to my iPad but there hasnt been ANY updates in some time now I mean even a cosmetic update would be nice              I like the bible app but how about maybe updating the thing
Best                 Gooooooood
it is as good as the droid app this app has been such a blessing i was able to read the torah the first 12 books word for word translations if you study surely you know how valuable that would be                 i can only hope
This app and it Mac counterpart have been such a massive blessing to me and my Sunday School ministry I cant always carry my Bible with me but I always have my iPhone in my pocket                 Like MacSword this app is amazing
The developer along with the Crosswire Bible Society have made a great open source Bible for everyone It makes me very happy that theyre one of the few to make non proprietary Bible software that will never be limited closed have in app purchases ads or any other bloatware such as the other mainstream Bible software If you want to support an app that will be publicly available forever since its code can be found online this is the app for you                 Great open source Bible
Excellent resource particularly for digging in the Word                 Excellent resource
All levels speedy searches excellent translations wonderful commentaries Bookmarks allow phrase entries After 20 years of experimenting with all the Bible programs I found this program to supersede them all I suppose this could use some charts and atlases But other lesser Bible programs have these options                 The best of the best
It is great to be able to switch between translations and see Strongs                 Great Bible App
Please update with a new iOS theme and optimized for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus Also An option to backup installed modules is needed since they do not backup Thanks              Update needed
This is the best SWORD based product out there Its easy to use and very intuitive unlike others Best of all is the price Great work Nic                 Serious study tool
This is the best Bible app I have ever used So much information Try to add the Expanded Bible Its pretty good Thanks for such an effective app for Bible study                 THE BEST
Pockets word is the best Love the bookmarking for witnessing PRAISE GOD                 THE BEST BIBLE APPPERIOD
This contains a basic Englishlanguage Bible dictionary and commentary not exactly geared for serious study in runon unformatted hardtoread text If you want other more substantial addons youre supposed to connect to some sort of module download system that they tell you with emphasis poses security risks in order to download modules that they tell you beforehand are in many cases just junk     Horrible at best
This app is amazing I really enjoy doing my Bible study on this app My favorite one is the ESV version I would like to be able to highlight and write notes as well just a suggestion the next time you do it update What a wonderful app this is                 Love this App
Keep up the Good work Your app is a blessing and easy to use I love how you dont charge money or attempt to profiteer off the gift of Gods word For this I favor this app over olivetree I use this often as my main on the go bible source                 God Bless you
Pocketsword gives you an amazing amount of stuff in so many languages                 Perfect
I much prefer the Tecarta Bibles        Powerful but nonintuitive
Best App Ive found for reading multiple translations of the Bible and its commentaries                 Love it
This has been my favorite app extremely convenient and powerful It looks awesome on my iPhone 6 plus Thank you guys sooooo much for this update I love you all in the Lord                 New version finally arrived
It offers different study methods as in commentaries word search Greek and Hebrew word usage dictionaries etc all linked together through Bible verses and opened separately in a different window but viewed together The only thing I would suggest to offer in a future download is the ability to open a second translation in a parallel view but in the same window of course                 Excellent Bible study app
Such a blessing to have all these resources available for Bible study and church services I keep several of the lexicons and commentaries installed all the time                 Amazing resource
This app is perfect if you want several versions of the bible on you at all times as well as a few of the best timetested commentaries a pretty good search feature and some other handy tools However one very simple feature that would make this app worth 6 stars in my book would be the ability to look at two translations of the Bible at one time sidebyside The ability to look at multiple languages sidebyside would make this an incredible tool in the hands of anyone eager to share with their friends who have a different heart language than their own Regardless great work              One major thing missing
When I want to bookmark a verse I use THIS APP because it allows users to make and name color coded folders When a bookmarked verse is stored in a COLORED folder the text of that verse is always displayed in that color when reading any version of the Bible You can also bookmark verses without assigning them to a specific folder What makes this bookmark system so very helpful for me is that every time I bookmark a verse I can make a personal note which for me is the reason or specific value if this verse to me When I first bought my iPad mini I loaded it with lots of Bible apps I now have eliminated all but 3 which are Pocket Sword for bookmarking eSword because its the best of the best for study and Holy Bible by YouVersion because it offers the best SPEAKER option When you download versions with the speaker icon you can have any part of the Bible read out loudsetback and relax and listenlisten while driving or listen to a pleasant voice read passages at your bible study Many people do not enjoy reading aloud so this is a perfect solution to that All three APPS I use allow me to download everything I want to use so it is always available OFFLINE                 Good BOOKMARKING System
Ive been using this program on my MacBook for some time now Started using it on my iPad Mini around 2 months ago I have to say Im impressed with how everything works together took about a day or 2 to get the feel of it Yet it has been wonderful to have all my study programs on my MacBook available on the iPad Mini Only two things I would suggest 1 A notepad in the program 2 Posting to Facebook twitter and such All in all wonderful program                 Wonderful program
I really like this app but recently when I was reading switching back forth from the Bible to the Commentary I noticed that the commentary of Proverbs 111 does not line up with the Bible The commentary of Pro 1031 is about the virtuous woman starting at the commentary of Pro 121 its about all is vanity which is suppose to be Ecclesiastes 1 If you can fix this I would definitely give the app 5 stars              Grama
Wow this app includes some really useful commentaries that you wont find with other apps It help me unstuck with bible reading                 Really powerful App
I am so happy to find an easy to use app with a Strongs Concordance There are other great features too but I was specifically looking for an app in which I could read the Bible and have the Greek or Hebrew numbers beside the words so that I could click them read the definition for that word and search all instances of that word I highly recommend this app It makes study even more fun                 Love It
There is a wide variety of Bibles and commentaries available I mostly use the KJV bible and Clarks commentary but there are many others available Clarks commentary in PocketSword is my first goto when I want to better understand something obscure in the Old Testament I like the ease of navigation This app has been a solid performer                 Lots of options
This is the best Bible app for bible study that I have found on iOS so far                 Best Bible app
Great tool for anyone                 Pocketsword
