What are users saying about HCSB Digital Text Edition

V70%
by V####:

Cannot bear the font. As mentioned by others, the letters are just outlines, and it is hard on the eyes. I can't seem to fix this through the options menu. Otherwise I would give it a better rating, but I can't bear reading the font unfortunately.

X70%
by X####:

Hate is not the description. Failure to function reliably causing me to be forced to use another version while the class is reading from printed HCS version.

F70%
by F####:

The menu key no longer works the way it used to. I realy liked this on the old operating system. I hope they can fix it.

X70%
by X####:

Font is bad and no way to search the bible- it just starts you in genesis- good luck spending all day scrolling to the book of John when sharing the gospel

X70%
by X####:

Text poorly colored and cannot scroll through the books. Starts in Genesis and have to scroll all the way through. I love this book in Google books but the app is terrible.

D70%
by D####:

I love His word. I do not love the font....is there no way to change it?

X70%
by X####:

There is no way to easily navigate through books of the Bible and the font size and type cannot be changed, which makes this app virtually useless.

E70%
by E####:

HCSB bible is a good App. At first it looks like its to hard to use. But play with it and it is a good bible app!

U70%
by U####:

Font supplied with app renders it unreadable and useless. App menus hard to navigate and seemingly still designed for older Windows machine. Not an Android mobile handset.

K70%
by K####:

The app is tough to navigate and it has a terribly difficult-to-read font. I downloaded this thinking it would be handy to find a verse when I'm on the go, but finding a passage was harder than necessary, and then I could hardly read the text. Uninstalling.

K70%
by K####:

Font is unreadable and my effort to change it resulted in unreadable micro text and the app was unclosable. Just awful.

K70%
by K####:

Default font color is nearly impossible to read. After fixing the color, it was too zoomed out to read anything at all and no way to go back to previous view format. :(

J70%
by J####:

It a great read but its hard to get the next chapter with complete one chapter it like reading a regular book.

K70%
by K####:

HCSB is highly recommend by well known pastors like Charles Stanley etc. This app makes it hard to read. Font is way to light and goes off the page, if your going to provide a free ver please make it usable this is Gods Holy word.

K70%
by K####:

I like this app It is working very very well

S70%
by S####:

Great it's free, but just a little more work on it would be good.

N70%
by N####:

Please fix, will use kindle version instead UPDATE: FONT IS STILL BAD... I am starting to think they do not listen to the reviews

N70%
by N####:

The font shown on the screen shot is not the same as what you're stuck with when you use the app. It is very hard to read and of poor quality. It ruins an otherwise excellent product. Please fix the very poor font!

N70%
by N####:

Could not get font to be readable. Letters show up as hollow outlines of letters. Makes it hard to read. No adjustments made any difference. Have hard copy but want e-version on tablet. Font still not fixed. It's unreadable!

N70%
by N####:

Text is not adjustable for size and reading, and there is no menu that I could find to navigate to other verses other than scrolling and waiting forever for it to get to a passage I want to read

N70%
by N####:

The only way to navigate is to start in gen and scroll down until you reach the book and verse you want. Takes way too long. I even reinstalled it. There is no menu page for ease of navigation. Please fix.

X70%
by X####:

Wish I could highlight the scriptures as I read them.

W70%
by W####:

The text is impossible to read because for some reason it is only in outline.

N70%
by N####:

The font is just the outline of the letters, making this very difficult to read. This is probably a very ready fix. I'm not sure why the publisher is allowing it's reputation to be tarnished by a little big.

T70%
by T####:

Installed on Note 2 in 2012 and worked great. After an android update the font became difficult to read. Now updated to Note 4 and font unusable. Too bad, I hope they update the version soon it was my favorite implementation

X70%
by X####:

The font is all bubble like it's not actually solid characters and I can't seem to change it. Makes the font hard to read even at larger sizes.

T70%
by T####:

Great no-frills app of the HCSB. Terrible font display and selection. C'mon Thom Rainer. We expect better from Lifeway.

R70%
by R####:

Cannot use notes or bookmarks when i try screen flashes solid white and app logo. Fix and i will change my rating. I love this translation and look forward to reading it

T70%
by T####:

This does not meet LifeWay's quality standard. They need to do something about it.

S70%
by S####:

Please fix, will use kindle version instead

F70%

This app has issues that needs to be resolved.

S70%
by S####:

Font issues with many others. Don't waste your time with this app!!!!

T70%
by T####:

This is a superbly simplified edition

W70%
by W####:

Needs new font.

Q70%
by Q####:

I have installed and uninstalled and reinstalled this app 3 or 4 times. The font has become unreadable with outlined white text. This could be such a great app if the font selection actually worked. It is so frustrating!

Q70%
by Q####:

Some update caused it to have a sort of outlined font now. It's impossible to fix and impossible to read. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times. I love this app so much, HCSB is my favorite and I can't find another good one. Please fix this

Q70%
by Q####:

There are display issues that are so extreme as to make this app unusable. It's a pity, because the translation disserves a far more polished presentation.

T70%
by T####:

From day one I have been unable to navigate, just scroll. I've tried and tried to navigate it, but no success. And I'm NOT going to scroll from Genesis all the way to Revelation! !!
