Pros
Very basic Bible.
Has a great names window which lists the names in the Bible with what each name means.Th
Cons
The installer is corrupted.
I used 7-Zip to extract the installer into a folder, and then I clicked on the installer in that folder.
I do this for all files I am testing, before I install anything.
I do this to try to avid any unnecessary installations.

CNET has added their own installer to our software. It seems now that in order to install Bible Buddy and get to our installer, you must now first go through theirs which can lead to toolbars being installed. We were never asked about the addition of their installer nor did we ever give permission for it to be included as part of the installation process of Bible Buddy. Our intent was to make a simple install program that only installed our software without any add-ons being attatched. We sincerely apologize for this and would warn anyone that downloads this software to be advised that the CNET installer will (by default) install other software unless you remove the checkmarks in their installer. Our beleif is that God's word should be and is free to all without any addition of toolbars and / or ads.
Once again, even though it was done without our consent, we sincerely apologize to all thiose that have had issues with CNET'S added on installer.
Pros
Basic functions of most Bible programs
Cons
See the summary below.
Summary
Be warned: The cnet installation program that accompanies this program wants to install a tool bar and change your home page. You are given the option to not do this, but it could possibly catch you off guard. No desk top icon, no uninstall option. I couldn't even uninstall it from the Windows uninstall under the control panel. Small interface rather than a full screen window to work in.

Summary
I use multiple bible study programs and this has become one of them. I used to use Bible Analyzer but after a good debut it quit running on my computer (?) I also use Bible Seeker.
BMS Bible Buddy has a lot of features and information so it greatly assists my studies. It presents 8 version of the Bible for comparisons, and has a dictionary. Another feature I like is the Random Verse, which, every time you click it, presents a random Bible verse (this invites you to study it and interpret it...you are never bored).
I would like to thank BMS Bible Buddy for offering us such a fine bible-study tool. It runs flawlessly and has a wealth of information and features.
And it's free, like those of us who follow Yeshua are free...!

Thanks for your review. We're conidering coming out with an updated version. Since screen resolutions have drastically increased since we first designed the software, a larger screen would be nice.
Pros
this product was easy to download,and easy to understand and use, and better than some previous software of the same nature i previously purchased.
Cons
i would rather have a full blown screen to work with.

Pros
This program was user friendly, gave you many choices how to look up information. The randon verses was an awe-inspiring feature to greet everyone when they use the program. I feel this will meet the needs of either the beginner looking to understand the Lord's Word or the Biblically knowledgeable individuals who seek to learn more. The search engine is of special expediance for me when I need verses or chapters in a hurry. I feel everyone should try this program and see what a difference it can make in their lives and their relationship with God!

Pros
If you are looking for ease in studing the bible and advancing your walk with God then this software is very beneficial. Everything you need on one screen, without flipping, losing your place, scattered books or papers. I love that you can study one subject, search for parts of a verse or verses pertaining to one theme.
Cons
Nothing negative to say! I love everything about Bible Buddy!
