You're totally right. Looking to add more Bible translations. Got a grant from eleven labs so used it for KJV to start.

I was unclear. The "Truth and Life" dramatized audio New Testament that I referenced, is not made with AI but with excellent voice acting work from names like John Rhys-Davies, Malcolm McDowell, Neal McDonough, Stacy Keach and other people that AI will never be able to compete with. I recommend dropping the audio bible feature and just pointing people to this one, which is cheap, and the Gospel of Mark is eve free.

Interesting! Thanks for the rec.
So great job making an app to make this easier.
For your core features, the "instant verse lookup" and "reading progress that sticks" look very useful.
But KJV audio? I think you'd be competing with the excellent dramatized audio book Truth and Life (RSVCE), which nobody can top.
