Best Paralell Bible app available. I find the layout clean and simple. There is more here than meets the eye. Word and verse studies are really nice. Some have complained about the interface being outdated. I find it refreshing AND not distracting. I dislike dual screen apps that force new screens to compare. This app is almost perfect. Make sure auto rotate is turned on. I use this on both my phone and PC. I keep it handy while reading my paper Bible. Hoping to see the UASV in the app.

It has the main feature I am looking for, which is having different versions of Bible and languages side by side. However, the format seems crude compared to other Bible apps (It feels like I am looking at an Excel document.). To give an example, one outdated app had split windows for each Bible that I could change sizes of. Also, the app crashes when I switch from the Catholic version to the Protestant version. I was unable to access the app until I deleted the app cache.

Thank you for your response. Would you please describe the problem of switching from the Catholic version to the Protestant version in more detail? For example, which Bible versions were in your versions set when the problem occurred? Please contact us at support@thebible.org so that we can assist you better.

I used to think this was 5 stars. But for several months now, l have only been able to get the 3 versions in portrait mode. When l turn my phone to landscape mode, all l see are the same 3 versions, but they are sideways. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, powering my phone off and on, but nothing changed. (I get landscape mode for other things, so don't think it's my phone.) If l could get the 5 versions in landscape mode again, l'd give this app 5 stars.

Thank you for your feedback. Please make sure that auto rotate is on, on your device. Here is how: 1. Swipe down on the Status bar (at the top) twice to expand the quick settings menu; 2.Tap Portrait (or Landscape, or Auto rotate) to turn auto rotate on. If it doesn't help, please contact us using Help > Contact support in the Parallel Plus app.
