The basic app is free to install and use, but it offers paid
subscriptions for additional features such as audiobook readings and
devotional music.

It's not random, the selection of passages and reflections is themed.
For example, it's currently doing advent readings, as you might expect.
It is also useful as a basic Bible app. As well as the daily passages
and quotes, it also has the full text of the NIV, ESB and NASV.
A lot of work has clearly gone into it, and I think that many people
will find it useful. I'm not entirely sure, though, that it will
generate as much revenue as the investors think it will.
