The app reviews start on 9/18/13 and I stopped checking after 55 loaded for that day alone. All were stellar reviews.

I have to admit that this app is actually very good. It allows comparison between the NWT and 5 other translations (Reference Bible, Kingdom Interlinear, Byington, American Standard and King James). I am actually surprised how user friendly it is...and that it actually allows these direct comparisons of verses. You can also view footnotes with a tap of the finger on the annotation .
I also see that there is an appendix featuring on specific subjects. I found the one entitled "The Divine Name in the Christian Greek Scriptures" to be interesting. The WTS is obviously sensitive to the criticism they have received for inserting Jehovah in to the New Testament. The answer is both ambiguous and arrogant, but they do take it on.
I think this app will be a very useful one to use in talking to our JW friends and relatives...it is hard to claim we are "twisting" words to deceive right hearted ones when those words come directly from the app the WTS has published and released!

It is actually a good thing that they have included the other translations allowing for comparisons.
