Reviews

Awesome app

Very inspiring! I love it. Great talks by great speakers!


Podcast issues
GregJep

Podcasts will only play when the app is open and don’t have an option to resume where you left off. So when screen locks the audio stops. If you close the app you have to manually search for where you left off.


Needs to be updated
Lizby 09

I loved listening to Hank Smith! And it was free!!!! The only problem was that when my phone would turn off so would the podcast. I was doing the dishes so I couldn’t keep touching the screen. Ahhh! Please fix this! I also couldn’t change the speed of how fast I could listen to the podcast. Please update your app! It’s 2020!!


The best!!!

I love this app!! Nothing more inspirational than having Hank, John, and Meg along for drives in the car. Or company when folding laundry. Or just to feel happier. Love it!


Love it but it needs to be updated!
brin01

I usually don’t write reviews but I love this app! I love listening to the talks! It does need to be updated because when my phone turns off the talk stops. Other than that highly recommend!


Clunky App
Jadcock

I subscribed but everything is still locked. Tried subscribing multiple times, still locked. Super clunky app. I know the speakers are great too bad the app gets in the way. After deleting and reinstalling I was able to get to the content, but it is still super buggy. Videos play with no audio. Reset password never sends the email with the new password. I am a paying bug tester ? Very poorly executed. Still waiting on a new password. If you run a subscription business it is important that your users can get access to what they have paid for. ?‍♂️


Good content but not as user friendly
kes.sorensen

I love listening to the content; it is uplifting and fun. However, I wish there was an option to auto play next item or that you could just go to the “next podcast” rather than having to scroll through the entire list again to find the one you need. Otherwise great!


Continual bugs and issues
Jedwarda

I love the concept of this app. I love the content. I love the speakers. I would love to use this subscription across several devices for our entire family. But the app just gives problem after problem. There always seem to be challenges downloading videos (this is key for the moments when you are out of wifi or cellular range), the audio rarely plays correctly on the videos, frequent password reset issues. Unfortunately I will have to cancel the subscription because it’s just not worth the money for an app that doesn’t function 100%. I think this app needs an overhaul.


Great subscription, ok app
NicNac00

Love the subscription. The app is ok. Seems some of the bugs have been corrected (it used to stop playing if your screen went to sleep), but I still find the app lacking. My son likes to listen to a talk while falling asleep, but the app doesn’t seem to have any options to only play the one talk. It just keeps going, until I wake up at 1am to the sound of talking, just to discover it is still playing. Overall, the app has little in the way of settings, and generally I just the Browser instead.


Great app! Even greater content!
George Appley

The talks are gospel-centered and richly applicable to families and individuals in many cases. I expected it to be slow or to feel difficult to navigate, but that’s not the case; it struck me that it was easy to navigate. That’s part of what made it easy to tell what kind of content they have!
