VerseWise Bible® (Douay-Rheims, Challoner Revision) is the Catholic Bible (with deuterocanon and notes) at your fingertips. It is optimized for easy, convenient reading.
Douay-Rheims is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate. It was the Bible of the majority of English-speaking Catholics well into the 20th century and is still popular among those favoring a more traditional translation.
VerseWise Bible DR includes the 73 books of the Roman Catholic canon. It uses the original introductions to each book and footnotes.

Pros and cons of VerseWise Bible DR app for iPhone and iPad
VerseWise Bible DR app good for
This is the most functional app containing the complete Douay-Rheims text on iTunes. Ive tried the rest at the time of this review but this is the only one that has a word search and landscape mode. The "Bible Douay-Rheims (Catholic)" for $2.99 is also very good. It lacks the word search, but it is well organized and has a nice look. This app is much more straightforward.
Love that it has all the books...love that it is reasonably priced...would REALLY love to see the same in an NAB version: The NAB is so much easier to understand... Unfortunately, the only NAB for iPhone right now (BibleReader app) is $27.99... Please make an NAB in your DR price range....Thanks!
An incredible Catholic Bible application that won’t break the bank. I am enormously happy with this application and recommend it to everyone searching for a Catholic Bible. I no longer need to carry my heavy bible everywhere I go, I have it in the palm of my hand.
As an added benefit, VerseWise gives great customer support. Prior to purchase, I contacted VerseWise and they were extremely helpful in answering my questions. Thanks Bruce!
First - its great to have another Catholic Bible for the iphone. I also really like the hints and tips the application provides and how easy it is to navigate between chapters. I appreciate the thought behind the design of the app.
Great bible at a great price. Well worth what I paid for it. Now lets see some other versions of the complete bible!
Seems like a great Bible app, but why in the world is, for example, Psalms 23 in the section for Psalms 22?! Can this be fixed, please? Are there other errors? Not good at all. :(
Some bad moments
I was using the copy function sometimes to do text message or emails. Now they have disable that feature!!! Its funny! Are you selling this only to make mony? Use your talents to spread the kingdom of God!!!!
