free version is a good sample
I have not subscribed to premium, but the free version is not complete. Most of the books are there, but not all of them. For most listeners, the included books should be adequate. The reading plans are well done. The app is easy to use with VoiceOver.Reading enjoyment, yes. For a reference to prepare a sermon, no.
This Bible reading app.
I'm not sure what version of the Bible is used. The readers are good. But, I am so used to Alexander Scourby. He's my favorite Bible (King James Version) reader. Maybe he could be added?
the bible version
from reading the website of dwell, it seems the ESV (english standard version) is being used, but they intend i believe to add more bibles and languages.
More books and versions coming
I can say for sure that more books and versions of the bible are coming. Can't say when. Also memorization options will eventually be added as well. New background music is added each quarter if memory serves...
adding Alexander Scorby
I doubt if he could be added. He did his reading in the nineteen fifties, and is now dead. I doubt if that reading could legally be added to an app that is not specifically for NLS patrons. Another reason is that he died.
I don't see why not.
I think I've seen his narrations being sold on-line, so I don't see why they couldn't be added to the app.
Thanks,
Shersey
Re: adding Alexander Scorby
I don't imagine he'd be added to this app as he has his own app in the app store which if memory serves might already have a review on AppleVis. As for the Dwell app I've recently discovered and am strongly considering purchasing the paid version as it does seem very accessible. One can never have too many tools at one's disposal. Here's to having options.
