We are honored to have been reivewed by a prestigious site like AppAdvice, who called Glo Bible “The most extraordinary iPad book app of the past year”.

“The most extraordinary iPad book app of the past year isn’t The Civil War Today, Ultimate Sharks or even The Monster at the End of This Book. No, while each of these titles are great, nothing compares to the Glo Bible + app, released earlier this year by Immersion Digital.

Unlike other digital Bibles that look, well, like Bibles, Glo is something new entirely.  Sure, Glo’s focus remains on offering text written thousands of year ago, which is studied by millions across the world, as it should.  However, Glo also readily accepts that most of today’s readers need more than text to get excited about a subject.  Therefore, the app also includes plenty of media features as well, such as interactive videos, photos, and the like.”

Glo Bible tops the list for “The 10 coolest book apps for Fall”, according to USA Today.

“Lavishly enhanced with more than 700 images of religious art, 2,300 full-color photos and 500 virtual tours of Biblical sites, 140 interactive maps and study tools, the interactive Glo Bible is a state-of-the art book app. Integrating digital text and media in a mesmerizing experience, and already named the 2010 Bible of the Year by the Evangelical Publisher’s Association, it’s now available with new features for additional platforms. The free “Glo Lite” version includes the King James and New International Version, and samples of the eye-popping reference tools in the premium edition. New iPad and iPhone versions also include an atlas linking Bible verses, articles and media to detailed maps with zoom-in capability. Click here to view the app trailer.

The verdict: One of the most impressive book apps available – and you can sample it for free.”

Nice little Glo overview over by Kirk Hiner at Appletell.

As a kid, my interest in the Bible began not in church, but in this huge, old hardbound edition my parents had sitting next to the encyclopedias. Before I could read, I was fascinated by its gory, baroque depictions of decapitated giants and its brutal imagery of the crucifixion of Christ. That was the coolest Bible I’d ever seen…until perhaps now.

Glo features zoom technology and an intuitive touch interface to present a rich interactive database of historic as well as contemporary information including photos, video, maps, artwork, 360-degree virtual tours and more.

“As content moves from paper to digital it is not enough to mimic paper in an electronic form,” says Nelson Saba, CEO of Immersion Digital. ” We need to exploit the full potential of interactive digital media to enhance how such content is experienced. That is the idea behind Glo; a digital publishing platform that offers an enhanced user experience of the content through media.”
