There are so many good, free, Bible apps available, that this has not been a focus for us, but if we get enough votes for it, it might be considered.

We've had this feature in the iOS version of the app for quite a while. Recent versions of Android OS now support playback speed options so we'll look into implementing it on Android as well. Thanks for pointing this out. Our team primarily uses iOS so sometimes Android differences don't get as much attention.

Caleb - regarding organizing the hymns by book, we'd love to do that but are currently prohibited from doing it for most of our hymn books since the compilations themselves are copyrighted.

Glad to hear reinstalling fixed it for you.

iOS or Android? Try deleting and re-installing the app and reporting back. We have not had any other reports of this, but if other users are experiencing the same thing, hopefully they will vote up this potential bug.

Glad to hear it is working again for you!

We have not been able to replicate this in our testing. We'll leave this post open for a little while longer to see if others vote on it. If not, we'll close it as it appears to be specific to your device or internet connection.

The elders now have a system in place for submitting prayer requests.

This sounds like a different issue unless there were actually churches live streaming on a Tuesday, which is highly unlikely unless you were listening to funeral services. Could you reply back to confirm if you were listening to archived sermons or listening to sermons live, as in, as they were happening in real time?
