    Amplified Bible With Audio. The male voice talked so fast that I couldn’t understand anything.I gave this one star.8-20-25.

  3. ★★★★other

    No audio. Can’t get audio

  4. ★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    Accuracy. Hosea 11:12 has been changed from Hosea 11:12 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints. To not faithful. Bad form to change the word of God.

  5. ★★★★other

    Bible. the content of the scriptures as written are very informative and the message is clear!

  6. ★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    Change. Why did you change. It apppeara you moved from classical amplified version to something else.

  7. ★★★★the audio sounds robotic

    Artificial Intelligence Voice needs help. A I voices are horrible for outloud reading.

    Psychic Reading 🚩. I find it disturbing that there’s a “Psychic Reading” add at the bottom left of this app when I open to a scripture, can you explain this?

  9. ★★★★other

    Faith comes by hearing. This app would be perfect if there was someone reading the Bible to me out loud.

    Planned Parenthood ads. I opened the app for the first time and there was a pop up ad at the bottom for planned parenthood. If the developer allows this in their app they are not someone I wish to support. “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF: from such TURN AWAY. 2 Timothy 3: 1-5. App deleted.

  11. ★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    Super bummed. I noticed a difference, so I’ve got this app open on my phone sitting next to my paper copy & I’ve checked the Bible gateway app also. I don’t like that this version of the amplified is different from my physical copy or other app. This is nowhere near as amplified.

  12. ★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    Search. Can’t figure out how to search for a specific scriptures?

  13. ★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    Very difficult to use…. I deleted the app

  14. ★★★★the audio sounds robotic

    Disappointing. The audio is the equivalent of a female robot reading at 1.5 speed. No inflection. Pure monotone. Deleted it after 30 seconds.

  15. ★★★★the audio sounds robotic

    Selection Of Audio Voices. I installed this app for one reason: because it has an option to hear the Amplified Bible read for you. However I found that although many choices of different male and female voices with either British or American accents can be selected, irrefutably, and distractingly not a single one of them even is a real person they are all of an archaic artificial computer generated type that because of that fact unavoidably grates on my nerves, and is very, very disruptive making the capability completely useless to me. Apple’s SIRI in comparison is far more real sounding than any one of those artificial ones you have on here to chose from. Please take the time, and resources to create audio of even just one living, breathing American male, and/or one living, breathing American female even to choose from instead of all those nerve grating primitive artificial voices. To me they all have the same highly distractive “fingers being scraped down a chalkboard effect on my nerves, and I’m sure I’m not alone in that regard!

  16. ★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    Fraud. I’m really surprised that you can see GODS name in the dictionaries, many Bible Translations but not in this so called Bible. This version doesn’t even use capital letters indicating the differences between the many names such as Molech but the divine name JEHOVAH. MISSPELL HIS NAME AND THE SPELL CHECK WILL EVEN CORRECT IT FOR YOU. Many buildings throughout Europe and other places. But to even consider that God’s name taken out of this so called Bible is absolutely appalling. I wonder how Jehovah God himself feels about it. Wait, wait!!! We don’t have to wonder. He tells us at Revelation 22:18,19

  17. ★★★★amplified unpacks the meaning of the word

    Detailed perspective. The Amplified version of the Bible indeed makes for a clearer appreciation, both the readers thought and the informed exposition by scholars.

  18. ★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    App does not work. : (. I love this translation, but this app doesn’t work. It is maddening. It has sent the same passage to me for my daily reading at least 50 times in a row. It isn’t possible to fix this. I’ve written support, and I have never gotten a response. I’m thinking of deleting the app. It is very sad.

  19. ★★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    App recommendations. I really enjoy the ease of use of this app it’s intuitive and makes note-taking simple and efficient. One improvement I’d strongly recommend is reconsidering the placement of the delete button in the notes feature. Having it available while actively writing has led to several unfortunate moments where I’ve accidentally lost hard-earned notes by lightly grazing the delete option. It would be much safer to move the delete function to the main notes list, placing it to the right of each note instead. Additionally, adding an undo feature would be incredibly helpful, along with bullet-point formatting options for better note organization. If removing the delete button from the writing screen isn’t an option, I suggest adding a confirmation step such as a “Are you sure?” prompt before a note is permanently deleted. These changes would greatly improve the user experience and prevent accidental data loss.

    All Flesh. Jesus was given power over all flesh, not just man- kind. John chptr. 17. Would you say, Jesus had power or dominion over the fish whom had the money in its mouth. Didn’t he have power or dominion over riding a colt that was not physically his.

  21. ★★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    ???. It’s easy to use, however scriptures don’t match actual amplified bible text, either from 1965 classic version or the updated 1987 and 2015 versions. This should be clarified in the description of the app. It does expound on text but I don’t quite understand where this version came from.

  22. ★★★★★other

    The icon is at the bottom, so you just click on it. I don’t know if it’s the verse or the chapter it so long

  23. ★★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    No instructions. I was happy when I found this Amplified Bible app BUT after going to setting and choosing a voice for playback there are no instructions how to use this app or get it to Read to you

  24. ★★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    I know I would like it if I could figure out how to go from book to book. I know I would like it if I knew how to look up different areas of the Bible I wanted to listen to I cannot figure that out so I don’t get to use it hardly at all some days I want a read or listen and Peter and Sundays in Isaiah have no idea how to do that I’ve tried Tryon couldn’t figure it out sorry amplified is a wonderful Bible I love it for references

  25. ★★★★★the audio sounds robotic

    Poor quality. The words and names are often mispronounced. The inflection is incorrect. It sounds more like a recording from a telemarketer. Not conducive to Bible study.

  26. ★★★★★text differs from the original and parts go missing

    Missing parts. I’ve been reading 1 Samuel and I have found that it is missing several chapters in this book. Not sure in the other books because I started reading this book first in this app. Not fond of not being able to have all the information.

  27. ★★★★★cannot figure out navigation and audio

    Listening. I don’t understand how to get this app to read to me. It only begins at Genesis and no other book, I need tips or directions to know how to get other books to read out loud ?? Please help ! It’s also preventing me from highlighting as well c&p to log into my notes ? Thank you

  28. ★★★★★ads at the bottom of the page

    Sadly Disappointed. This app appeared to be what I was searching for to help me on my spiritual walk, however, I noticed the ads praised Trump. If this bible app is for politics, you're deceiving the people. I want a study bible, not your support for Trump.

    Audiobooks. I was looking for the entire bible to be audio. Had to keep searching when i realized it wasn’t.

  30. ★★★★★amplified unpacks the meaning of the word

    Suggestion. I appreciate being able to access the amplified Bible. I would suggest more user friendly navigation and search tools. And it would be great to be able to tap a verse and reference another translation. Thanks.
