My husband and I have been reading this daily devotional each and every morning for the last seven years! It is amazing how God speaks to us through his word through this devotional! It is like a playbook for our lives. Each word from the Lord through Pastor Ricks devotional is customized to what we are experiencing that day in our family, and it offers such a wonderful encouragement from the Lord! Highly recommend this.
I am reading reviews from two and three years ago and finding that some complaints from then still apply today. Why is that? Is no one paying attention to the feedback? How sad! I first downloaded this app about two months ago because I love Rick Warren. Unfortunately the devotion that opened up for me on my iPhone was from the previous day. Today I opened the app again to see whether that had been addressed or resolved and found that the issue remains the same. Please fix this! I would like to be able to open the app at 6am to the current day’s devotion and not the previous day’s one. I will try back again later in the year - maybe - but in the meantime, I’m off to use a more reliable devotion. This is so disappointing!
Regardless of whether you consider yourself as religious or not, this message is simply one of hope. Sometimes life just gets hard and hearing the right message can get you through one more day. The messages are practical advice for everyday life Try this for a few dats and you’ll be hooked.
I absolutely love this app. I need this App to start my day the correct way. I listen at work but now that I download the app, I will be listening on my way to work instead of the radio. I would give this six stars if I could.
Praise God for this app and Rick Warren’s gift of speaking truth to millions of people through this app! I recommend this app to all the people in my circle as well as students across my college campus! This app is a daily practice for me along with my other daily devotionals and readings.
I listen to Daily Hope in the mornings while I am getting ready for the day. It’s wonderful to hear Pastor Rick’s voice and to learn various insights from him to apply to daily life. So thankful for this app!!
I love pastor Ricks style of preaching! Everyone has 20-30 mins to spare to listen to a great message of Gods word! He explains Bible verse’s using relatable stories and you walk away completely understanding the true message of Gods Word for your life!
Love it but I wish there was a way to know which podcasts I have already listened to. Sometimes I lose track and I don’t see a way to mark them off. But I love it. I’ve been learning so much!
Thanks Daily Hope team for improving your App. I can now adjust the font size and the font is dark and easy to read. This is an awesome App if you want a convenient way to read Pastor Rick’s amazing Devotional or listen to the wonderful audio teaching. In a troubled world, Pastor Rick’s Bible teaching gives me true hope.
Thanks for the app and it's a great start. Especially the small group piece and streaming. Please add the beauty to the app that the email has (pretty image with verse) Please consider larger and darker font. (I'm 40 and it's too light) also consider settings to remind you to read (like you version) also consider the ability to invite friends like in you version. This can especially be great for accountability in small groups. It sparks for conversation after you have read and draws everyone in. It's also encouraging to see the people in your group have read it. Lots of potential here keep going. I will check back.
I would rate this higher, however since the most recent update, the intro video plays each time you open the app. It wasn't always like that in the past. In the past it would play the first time after an update and then not play again. Not sure what happened but it is very annoying. The video says "it opens to the devotion of the day" which technically is incorrect since the video plays first. You can skip the video, but that doesn't line up with the into video.
The app is great and the in app purchases are worth the money. I use it daily. Only problem is that the Daily Hope reflection is always a day behind and there's no way to move up to the correct day, so if I want to be current with friends who use the website I have to go to the web also. Other than this glitch -- and it's not a small one -- I'd give it 5 stars.
I am so impressed with the response to users’ frustrations! I am so thankful for your willingness to continue to improve this app as it has been such a beneficial daily devotion. I appreciate Rick’s down-to-earth approach in applying God’s word in a way anyone can understand. He’s sincere, kind, but totally honest, and I appreciate that. Great job to all!!
I love the devotions, but every time I launch the app a loud introductory video blares. I enjoy reading on sleepless nights and having quiet time early in the mornings, but I cannot open this app unless I go in a separate room because the video automatically launches and wakes up my husband. Otherwise, this is really a great app. I’m not sure why there are not any setting options to control the launching of the video.
I loved this app, but, as I and several others continue to say, ever since one of the more recent updates for the iPhone version, the font size makes the daily devotionals unreadable. It won't even allow you to expand it to make it readable. I would rate this a 5 star app, if it were readable!
Please offer an option at least to turn off the intro video. It is totally annoying! There are too many other great devotionals to put up with it much longer!! Otherwise I would love this app!
I love this app so much. I use it daily and it’s often a conversation point for me and my husband. But it’s not been working for a long while and needs an update. By the reviews others are greatly missing this app too. The app is so much easier than the podcast, and they are sometimes not the same Topic, and I would love to be able to use it again. Please update it
I found the app to have good content but the small font and light color of the font made it difficult for me to read. If they would use a larger font it would be helpful.
The intro video is annoying and most days I read before getting out of bed while my spouse is sleeping, unfortunately the video has woken him more than once
Please turn off the intro video. I hear it over and over every time I start it. I love it for everything else and use everyday. Intro video still on. Excruciating. Please. Off.
I love the daily devotionals. Unfortunately, the app stopped working about two weeks. When I try to open the daily, I receive the following message: "The operation couldn't be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 42.)". Please advise!
This display is way to small for the iPhone. Please make it smartphone friendly. I can't expand text. I Love Rick Warren - so happy he is using technology to reach us!
Broke right now. When you try to listen, this is what you get. 404 - File or directory not found. The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
I keep my ipad on a stand and it has a keyboard case so anything that only displays in portrait view won't work for me. Will check back now and then to see if they offer more views.
This app has turned out to be a huge disappointment. It worked great for awhile, but now I get weird error messages and it won’t open at all, so I have deleted it.
Every time I open the app the video plays, then as soon as I click on the “My Daily Hope” button this error message shows: NSXMLParser ErrorDomain error 4.2
This is a execellent daily bible app that just stoped working 4 days ago it is the best out can you fix it or do I need to delete it a real bummer I can’t use it.
