An editorial reading of the saved reviews
People have valued the ESV translation itself for decades, and some with formal training praise its accuracy and a simple, powerful search. But the tech lets it down: bookmarks and plans do not sync across devices, the audio skips one verse at a time instead of a chapter, and after an update some purchased content moved behind a subscription, so people lost what they already paid for. The base text is free, everything valuable is paywalled.

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
When I was reading the Bible, I was in Matthew 17 and there is a verse missing, 21 and it’s a very important verse that we need.
