Sad to say but really hating the new app, and Ive been searching on google to find any information on how to reinstall the old app 5.17.1 , which was really a great app that worked well for me but have been unsuccessful in finding any viable solutions. I would welcome any advice on how to install 5.17.1 , again to replace 6.0. I Tried reaching out to Apple for help but they were unable to help as 5.17.1 has been replaced with 6.0                                  It is a very, very rare occurrence for me to be on forums in the first place I normally just work around any problems but this is so distubing that Faithlife would realease a new app without any warning as to lost functionality so the user could decide if he would want to download the new app. Any help from a user would be very much appreciated at this point.

    Hi Trent,

    Concerning that the app downloaded without your express approval.

    Being a bit of a nerd I always expand the release notes on apps to see what is going to change - although I have never declined an update.

    I can't help with reversion to the previous release but would be interested to know what functionality you are missing?

    Trent:

    It is my experience (with the Android app) that although one can find old Bible APKs on the internet, I believe a kill-switch was programmed into the app such that older versions can't install at all after a revision is released. It produces a CRC or similar error. This happened to me once when I needed to reset an Android 4.2.2 tablet after support for that version had ended, and others have experienced the same phenomenon.

    Thanks Graham

    I can't seem to keep track of threads the way you do.

    I had seen the thread but hadn't associated it with the current conversation.
