  • Disappointing

    I recognize the challenge of working within the iBooks platform to provide access to footnotes, cross references, robust navigation, etc., but I don’t think this product succeeds at all, especially considering the price. Even basic options like displaying Jesus’s words in red simply don’t work as advertised. There appears to be no process in view for fixing bugs or improving the product over time. I feel a bit cheated by the publisher.
  • Good but needs improvement

    The words of Jesus will not stay red though the preference for it is selected. I miss the app.. I had to purchase it again because the app is gone and you moved to the Ibooks

    This book is easy to navigate. I have the Zondervan NIV, Reformation, and MacArthur Study Bibles. They are all good. The ESV is the BEST of them.
  • Great study Bible for iBooks

    With the limitations that iBooks has as an app, Crossway & the ESV Study Bible have found a way to be very useful and bring a book that can be navigated easily. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to click on cross-references and quickly go and read. (And for that matter easily go back) The study bible links are also helpful, so that the reading is not hindered by too much on the page. I have been pleased with this study bible and the products from Crossway.

    Navigation has alway been an issue. Especially when trying it on a page not on the main menu. No way to get to a specific word in the concordance. Way to much money for an inferior product.

    I love being able to have access to a digital bible with all the cross references and footnotes of the ESV study bible, that which aren’t available in YouVerison. It’s incredible to click the cross reference scripture to see it instead of hunting for it and then be able to bounce back to my original place. Thanks so much!

    This Bible has not worked properly since I down loaded it. I can only get to the first page of chapter one of each book of the Bible. The iTunes store indicates that there is an update published Oct 1, 2013 but I do not see how to down load it. This was not an inexpensive book, I should think someone would be trying to fix this so we can use it. It makes me wonder if I should try any other expensive books

    Unfortunately, the only study material I found myself working through was the users guide.. As someone else stated, you get the first page for the book reference material, but can't access the other pages. They did say it might take a few moments to index the study material.. But, it's not working... :(
