Pros and cons of 12 Steps Companion AA Big Book app for iPhone and iPad

12 Steps Companion AA Big Book app good for

I am so grateful that I found this great companion. Ill be showing this to all my friends!!!
the notes I so studiously made in meetings don’t “travel”. What I put in my iPad, doesn’t appear in my iPad, and when I stopped using my iPod, all those notes suddenly disappeared from my iPad. I lost everything! grrrrr
One of the MOST QUOTED STORIES in a meeting, Acceptance Was the Answer ( Dr. Addict Alcoholic) is not included in the personal stories. Perhaps you could do an app update to include it. I carry my iPad to meetings and rely on it for my Big Book. Also, when will the 12x12 be one of your apps?
This app provides me with everything I need. Got my big book and everything else .
This app is solid. The notes and highlight options are great! My only complaint is that the italicized words in the book are not present in the app. Please make this identical to the text! Italics!
Search feature is great but result remains highlighted. Unable to un-highlight it.

Some bad moments

I have used the 12 Step Companion for more than a year now, and I loved it. However, it seems the latest update has rendered it utterly useless for me because when I move from the Day counter to the Big book it lets me read only the last open story and none of the navigator buttons works anymore. I might as well delete it and go back to my real Big Book. Bummer.
This is a very well put together and useful app. But if Im not mistaken this is only the 2nd addition of the big book. The current version being give out in AA meetings is the 4th addition. I would love to keep using this app but I hate having to refer back to my actual big book to make sure I am getting the most up to date text. I would definitely give this a 5 star review if the Dev were to update the text. Also a bookmarking feature would be nice so I could bookmark multiple pages for study purpose.
when i first open the app it says to enter sobriety date but when you touch the screen it jumps to the big book and that is it. you can read and search the book but nothing else. none of the other features it claims to have are available. a waste of my money. do not download!
I would like my money back please. The title made me expect guidance through the steps. My bad. But I would still like my money back please.
Sobriety tracking function? Not working on my iPad. Says to enter date but doesnt give you way to do it. No text box, keyboard doesnt come.up. Click screen, opens up contents but not way to enter date. Any advice?
I wrote my first two personal notes on my journey to sobriety and it didnt save them.
