The Book of Mormon

I was hoping to use this app to listen to the Book of Mormon like an audiobook. Two important features need work before this will be useful. I wonder if any of the app developers are paying attention to these reviews... Firstly, there are only three play speeds: 1x, 2x, and 3x. 1x is too slow. 2x and 3x are too fast. Most audiobook apps allow for 1.25x, 1.5x, and 1.75x. Secondly, bookmarking. If I have to stop listening for awhile and the app gets closed, my place is lost the next time I open it. Would be nice if the app would remember where I left off, or at least allowed me to place bookmarks.

I Love the reader, but every time I go back to listen to the next chapter, it starts back at the title page and then introduction. I have to scan ahead to the end of what he’s saying then go and re-input the chapter I’m on. If I have to stop in the middle of a chapter, it doesn’t save my spot. I switched to this version because when my other app updated, it switched to a different reader that I can’t handle listening to. It almost made me cry! (Ok, I teared up). I was so thankful to find the good reader here!

The Book of Mormon is amazing! It’s similar to the Bible except it’s the testimonies, prophecies and teaching about Jesus Christ from his prophets on the American continent. It even has a section that details Christ’s visit to the people on the American continent after he was resurrected from his death and crucifixion that happens in the Bible. This book goes along with the Bible and testifies that Christ is the Savior for all people, doesn’t matter the color of our skin or our race. If we follow his teachings found in the Book of Mormon we will find lasting happiness.

Even tho' I am no longer a member of the LDS faith, I still have many family and friends who are. This app makes a very good and peace-making gift to the. The app is faultless. It has very nearly every translation available, maybe all of them. Plus, for several languages, it includes audio recordings that you can listen to. Finally, for non-LDS researchers, it provides an accessible resource for study. Go ahead and get it if you are interested in a unique, American religion.

When my friend suggested that I should read this book at first I was hesitant but after reading it I had a desire to know more. This book’s contents just make sense and I can tell that this book was especially made for our day and age. This app is not a scam, there is no ads or money traps. Read it and you might be surprised to find the level and truth and peace you receive.
