Sermons 3.0 App is Here?

WEBVTT

1
00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:06.000
Looking at our world from a theological perspective. This is

2
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:12.199
the Theology Central podcast making Theology Central. Well, we have

3
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:16.239
been waiting all day? Well, can I say we? I

4
00:00:16.239 --> 00:00:19.679
don't know if you have. I have been waiting all day,

5
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:23.839
really since around midnight. I've been waiting and checking and

6
00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:27.679
looking and refreshing and waiting and looking. I have been

7
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:30.920
waiting and looking for the sermons two point oh app

8
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:33.719
to drop the update so that we would get these

9
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:37.600
sermons three point oh app. Right, I've been waiting all day,

10
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:40.560
waited all morning. I did a little. I did a

11
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:43.799
broadcast this morning, at least giving you a description of

12
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.320
everything that is supposed to happen as of right now.

13
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:51.280
We looked at the information, kept waiting and waiting and waiting,

14
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:54.840
and then someone emailed me to do a review of

15
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:58.079
a podcast, so we did that. But still there was

16
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:01.359
no sermons three point oh app apps absolutely nothing, zero,

17
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:07.200
no update. Nothing. I don't even think I could be wrong.

18
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.680
In fact, let me look here. I don't even think.

19
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:13.200
Let me see if I can get to it. I

20
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:16.040
don't even think, my god, I may not be able

21
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:19.319
to see. Hang on, let me look here, Let me

22
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:20.879
look here, if I can get to it if I

23
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:24.239
can get to it, if I go to Yeah, I

24
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:27.040
think I can access it. Yes, oh oh wait it

25
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:33.840
is Okay. Six minutes ago on the sermon audio x account,

26
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:38.319
it says introducing Sermon's three point zero, the official app

27
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.439
of sermon Audio. The latest version has been completely re

28
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:47.359
engineered under the hood to deliver superior media playback stability

29
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:52.799
while getting a bold strategic direction for future development. Get

30
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:58.359
it now, So six minutes ago. So I'm I'm trying

31
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:00.200
to be as close to this as possible. If I

32
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.200
look full transparency, I don't necessarily want to be talking

33
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:05.680
about it now. I know that's bad. As excited as

34
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:08.520
I've been while I was trying to watch something on television,

35
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:10.919
but then I saw that the update had dropped, and

36
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.120
I'm like, well, I told everyone the minute it dropped,

37
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:17.240
I would go live. So I'm keeping my promise, right,

38
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.520
I'm keeping because I mean all of the people who

39
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:22.960
pay so much money for this brag. Okay, I'm a

40
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:25.080
little bit of joke there, but no, I said I

41
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:26.599
would do that, So here I am. So we're going

42
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:28.479
to look at it now. I have not I have

43
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:31.400
not done the update. I haven't done anything, so here's

44
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:35.400
what happened. I went to the I went to the

45
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.280
app store. Well, now it's hang on, oh, there it is, okay.

46
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:40.759
I went to the app Store. I did a search

47
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.319
for sermons two point oh, and I what it led

48
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:45.360
it led me to. It doesn't say sermons two point

49
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:49.080
oh anymore. It doesn't say sermons three point oh. It

50
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:55.400
says sermons by Sermon Audio, Trusted Library of Sermons. That's

51
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:58.000
that's what it says. So if you're looking for sermons

52
00:02:58.039 --> 00:02:59.840
two point oh or sermon's three point oh, you're not

53
00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:02.639
going to find it. You're going to find sermons Buy

54
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.919
sermon Audio is what it's actually called now, Trusted Library

55
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:10.599
of Sermons. Thirty five minutes ago, I guess is when

56
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:13.000
the update drop if I click now, I'm looking in

57
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.120
the Apple app Store, just for you know, so that

58
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:17.680
everyone understands. I have no idea what's going on over

59
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:19.960
in the Google play Store. I have no idea, but

60
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:24.159
as of right now, and please look, there's still just

61
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.319
sixty six ratings. Can someone, for crying out loud, go

62
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.759
to the Apple App Store and give it a new

63
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.560
review and new ratings something? All right? But okay, So

64
00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:36.479
thirty five minutes ago. Here's what it's saying here. Now,

65
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:38.840
I haven't I haven't done the update yet. What's new?

66
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:45.319
Complete app rewriting for superior media stability, entirely new, floating

67
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.639
player experience, auto play from one sermon to the next,

68
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:55.240
free user accounts to follow and bookmark content, cross device

69
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.639
play history, linked to user accounts, and proved offline mode

70
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:06.960
with downloading, deep linking support, dark mode support, Chrome cast support,

71
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.479
and more languages supported. That's the only thing that's listed

72
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:15.240
as new as of right now. So when they first now,

73
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.240
well when we knew this was coming and they first

74
00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:20.519
announced it. Now, I'm just gonna be honest with you.

75
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:23.199
In my mind, Sermon's three point oh a brand new app.

76
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.120
We were going to get a ton of new features.

77
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:29.240
That's where my mind was going, Right, it appears we're

78
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.000
just gonna get maybe that a lot of the changes

79
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:34.639
and the new is kind of behind the scenes. We're

80
00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:38.160
gonna get some things that's going to look differently esthetically, right,

81
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:39.800
But I don't think we're going to see a lot

82
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:43.920
of new features right now. I am hoping then we'll

83
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.639
get further up. We'll start getting updates on a pretty

84
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:51.439
regular and consistent basis. I'm hoping over the next few months.

85
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:55.800
Maybe I'm hoping really soon and we can start seeing

86
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:59.800
some new features, at least i'm hoping. But here we go.

87
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.319
I'm gonna update the app right now. All right, so

88
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.199
I'm in the Apple App Store. Here we go again.

89
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:08.199
If you do a search for sermons two point oh

90
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.600
or sermons three point oh, you're not gonna see that.

91
00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.240
You're gonna see sermons by Sermonadio. There's no two point oh,

92
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:16.240
there's no one point oh, there's no three point oh,

93
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.040
there's no four point oh, there's no numbers. It just

94
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:22.959
says sermons by Sermonadio, which could throw you off. All right,

95
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:27.959
so here you go. I'm gonna click update. All right,

96
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.160
I'm gonna click on update. Okay. It says open. Here

97
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.399
we go, Here we go, Here we go, Here we go.

98
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:40.319
All right. It says welcome to Sermons three point oh

99
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:43.240
right at the top. Now, everything is kind of I

100
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:45.240
guess you would call it dark mode. I guess kind

101
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.240
of hang on, let me go here, I'm gonna go

102
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:50.240
to more hang on, ooh more. You see here we

103
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:58.199
have settings okay, theme okay, if it's it's doing system default,

104
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:00.959
which is dark if I go to light Okay, now

105
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:04.160
there's dark or system default, so it is dark mode.

106
00:06:04.279 --> 00:06:09.199
So dark mode is there interface language, current device language

107
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:14.040
where I can pick which one. All right, you got Portuguese, Spanish, Swahili,

108
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.240
you've got French, Farsi, Hindi, a lot of different languages.

109
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:23.040
So that's cool. All right, So we have that, and

110
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:25.040
right now I'm under the more tab. I'm under the

111
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:30.759
more tab. We have him and Salter, which actually takes

112
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:33.639
you out of the app to the website. So it

113
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:36.040
actually takes you out of the app to the website.

114
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:39.199
I'm not a fan of that. I mean, I don't

115
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:42.040
I don't like that. Okay, so just just just I'm

116
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:44.639
just giving my first reactions here. This is real time.

117
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.639
I have no I'm looking at it in real time.

118
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.600
I'm under the more tab. So Himnal and Salter takes

119
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:55.439
you out of the app to the website. Well, I

120
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.079
wanted to open in the app, right okay, Daily Devotional.

121
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:04.839
It takes me to the website. It's taking me out

122
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.920
of the app. Why would I want it to take

123
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.279
me out of the app? If I have the app,

124
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.519
I want everything to be self contained within the app,

125
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:16.480
not take me to the website. Right. That just seems

126
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.120
I mean, if it's going to do that, I would

127
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.319
just go to the website. If things in the app

128
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:25.439
are gonna take me to the website, then I'll just

129
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:27.839
access the website. There's no point in having the app.

130
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:31.360
So so so far, those are two strikes I'm not liking.

131
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:35.519
This is under the more tab hymnal Insalter takes you

132
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:37.639
to the website, not to the app, not inside the

133
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:40.920
app Daily Devotional instead of opening inside the app, it

134
00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:45.000
takes you to the website. Church Finder takes you to

135
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:51.000
the website. It does not take you What is this? Okay,

136
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:55.639
so we've got three things that's leaving the app, so

137
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:57.399
you see it in the app, but it's leaving the

138
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:01.439
app now and just for full transparent. And see when

139
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:05.279
we had our own standalone app because we had this

140
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:09.120
great deal. There was this company in Austin who helped

141
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:11.600
build our app. It was and I had to do

142
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:14.319
a lot of work, but they kind of helped facilitate

143
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:16.720
it and we got our app going. Everything was great,

144
00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:19.839
and then they that company was bought by a bigger

145
00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:24.160
company that does apps for very big churches. Right, but

146
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.759
it was going to cost us like, oh man, I

147
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.279
don't even know remember how much money. It was crazy, right,

148
00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:32.279
And one of the things that bothered me was a

149
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.679
lot of the features would be like it would take

150
00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:37.200
you out of the app, and then like so for

151
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:39.480
like our sermons, they weren't going to play within the app.

152
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:40.919
They were going to take us outside of the app

153
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:44.320
to like to our Theology central web page or something.

154
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:47.000
I'm like, no, I'm not forget it, get rid of it.

155
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:49.639
I'm not paying money for it. If the stuff doesn't

156
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:51.159
work in the app and people have to leave the

157
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:53.759
app to go to the website, they can just go

158
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.759
to the website forget it. So I was very frustrated

159
00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:59.440
with that. So here we've got three things, and this

160
00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:02.799
is all the more. Tab Him and Salter does not

161
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:05.720
open in the app. It opens on the website. Daily

162
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.000
Devotional does not open in the app. It opens on

163
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.919
the website. Church Finder does not open in the app,

164
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:15.440
opens on the website. How about radio? Okay, radio opens

165
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:21.559
in the app. I'm gonna go to sermon audio radio. Okay,

166
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.159
gonna go to radio. Why see why hang gud does

167
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:30.840
it play? We don't need God, we will be God. Okay,

168
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:34.360
So there we go. So radio works good, Radio works good,

169
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:36.559
all right. So we're all right. We finally got one thing.

170
00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.440
I'm all on the more tab all right, so we

171
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:42.200
have dark mode, all right, And I went to the

172
00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:44.320
moretab and went to settings first. I'm sorry, I kind

173
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.279
of got ahead of myself. I went to the moretab

174
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.679
and went to settings first. We are in dark mode.

175
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.320
It looks a nice however, you go back to the

176
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:55.720
top of the more tab. Hymnal Andsalter does not open

177
00:09:55.759 --> 00:09:58.960
within the app. Daily Devotional does not open within the app.

178
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:02.639
Church Finder does not open within the app. The QR scanner,

179
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:09.320
that's just if you're trying to scan against the QR code. Yeah, okay,

180
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:13.720
then you got the settings, log in and sign up. Okay,

181
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.000
you see here, I gotta try to log in, try

182
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:22.960
to log in here from my account. I think it's

183
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:26.399
this password. I can't remember what my password was, all right,

184
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:28.799
it's been five hundred years. Oh that's definitely not it.

185
00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:37.279
All right? Hang on? Was it was it this? Hang on?

186
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:40.000
Let me see here. I'm hoping it's this, because if

187
00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:45.120
it's not, yes, there it is, okay, not now, okay,

188
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:49.120
account settings, all right, I have all that ready to go. Okay.

189
00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:52.279
Now I'm gonna go back to more, go to settings.

190
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:55.440
Of course, there's no notifications. Nevermind. I was going to

191
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:59.120
turn on notifications. All right. So we have out on

192
00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:01.840
the more tab. We have three things that do not

193
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.000
open within the app itself. It takes you to the website.

194
00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:11.000
All right, So go under library. Okay, it is pulling

195
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.919
the broadcasters I follow, so that's good. It is pulling

196
00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:18.240
followed series all right. It's pulling from that. That looks

197
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:23.200
all good. Downloads Okay, it has my downloads have twenty

198
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.639
nine currently here. Okay, that looks good. All right. I'm

199
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:30.320
gonna go to my feed tab. My feed tab looks

200
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:34.840
like it's working very well. In god, there's the mission

201
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:39.200
conference here. Open it up. That looks nice. Looks good,

202
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:42.360
all right. And the dark mode is kind of a

203
00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:46.240
it's not like a complete like really dark black. It's

204
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:49.320
kind of like a grayish color. All right. So the

205
00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:56.759
feed tab looks like it's working. Discover tab, Newest sermons

206
00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:02.039
all right, that looks good. Newest Sermons, category worries okay,

207
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:05.000
looks I mean those are the typical categories, all right,

208
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:10.159
there's nothing. Uh popular topics, oh man, Popular topics is

209
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:13.000
not anything updating if the first one is nine eleven,

210
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:15.440
So I mean, so I don't know how nine to

211
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:17.679
eleven could be the top popular topics. So they're not

212
00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:21.440
in any kind of order. I don't even know why, Like, okay,

213
00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:23.240
I don't even know what that's pulling from. So I'm

214
00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:26.480
still not a fan of that. Staff picks, great series, picks,

215
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.720
good newest series. Everything is just the way it's been trending,

216
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:37.600
trending hashtags, Jesus Gospel, Bible, okay, comments, speakers, broadcasters, featured sermon.

217
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:41.919
Looks pretty similar to the other one. I may be

218
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.720
missing something, but the discovery tab looks the simple, the

219
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:49.919
same homepage, Live webcast. Okay, how come we're not in

220
00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:52.639
the top. Why are we? Why are we in the bottom?

221
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.360
What is that nonsense? Okay, all right, the live webcast

222
00:12:56.440 --> 00:13:00.399
we're not to be seen. Featured sermon, staff picks, uh,

223
00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:04.720
local broadcasters. That looks nice. Oh there's the radio. Top tabs,

224
00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:10.279
followed series, followed broadcasters, newest sermons, newest videos, features sponsors.

225
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:15.639
So it looks pretty pretty similar. So right now we're

226
00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:18.080
not going to see any major thing. We're not going

227
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.279
to see any major thing. I'm going to do something here.

228
00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:24.720
I'm gonna hit newest sermon. I'm going to hit a

229
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:30.440
new sermon here. This is a new sermon. Let's go

230
00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:33.240
ahead and pray and we'll get started. Okay, Well that's weird.

231
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:36.279
Heavenly Father, I thank you for this Monday that you've

232
00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:39.240
brought us together. Okay, I thank you for the passage

233
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:41.360
that we've studied, and I just pray that as we

234
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:46.320
look at your laws. All right, So yeah, I'm able

235
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:48.960
to navigate away and look at other things and it's

236
00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:52.960
it's still playing fine. So that's that's that's doing great.

237
00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:57.919
I'm going to look here. Yeah, so everything as far

238
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.840
as Lisa an Apple device, everything looks fine. It's not

239
00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:06.200
cutting off if I if I navigate away from it,

240
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:12.000
so everything looks good. Yeah. So that sermon was Exodus

241
00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:17.159
twenty two, sixteen through twenty three to nineteen Women's Exodus.

242
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:22.559
That's interesting from a by Laura Westerman. Right. Caught me

243
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:25.000
off guard a little bit because typically we would not

244
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:26.639
see that. But okay, I'm assuming it's from like a

245
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:29.960
women's conference or something, but okay, whatever, Oh, there's it's

246
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:34.720
a women's exodus. It's an eight it's eighteen Sermons. So

247
00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:37.279
I don't really know what's going on there, but that's interesting. Okay,

248
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:43.120
So everything looks pretty. I mean, you're not gonna see

249
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.039
anything too dramatic right now other than the dark mode.

250
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.919
And if you've been waiting for dark mode. I think

251
00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:49.799
the real issue. I think the real thing is going

252
00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:53.559
to be for the Android users who say that I

253
00:14:53.559 --> 00:14:55.600
don't like the app, because if I'm playing a sermon

254
00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:57.759
and I go look at something else, it immediately turns

255
00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:01.519
off Android users. You're gonna have to confirm or deny

256
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:03.960
what is happening because I can't. I am going to

257
00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:08.120
go see if I can access the Google Play Store,

258
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:09.759
and I'm going to see if I can get to

259
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:11.639
the Google play Store. Hang on, let me see here

260
00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:18.200
Google Google play hang on, see if I can access

261
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.159
it Google play Store. Here we go. I'm going to

262
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.440
the Google play Store. I'm going to do a search

263
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:34.120
for sermons. If I go to sermons two point zero. Yeah,

264
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:37.080
now it just says sermons by Sermonadi. Okay, there it is. There,

265
00:15:37.080 --> 00:15:41.879
it is, and I'm assuming Okay. Updated on February the

266
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:43.960
twenty fourth, So this is it. So this is it.

267
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:48.600
The ratings are not good right there, hopefully other ratings

268
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:51.559
will go up their reviews. They only have a three

269
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:57.320
point zero stars. Hopefully that changes dramatically. So yeah, so

270
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:01.159
I'm hoping that goes well and you can go check

271
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:07.840
that out. Let me see here, are there any comments under? Yeah?

272
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:10.799
Hang on, I'm not seeing anything. Hang on, I'm trying.

273
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:13.480
I'm looking like fifteen different things here. I'm looking at

274
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:24.120
fifteen different things here. Okay, so far, yes, all right, Yeah,

275
00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:25.840
I'm not seeing a lot of I was seeing if

276
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:28.919
there was gonna see any comments or anything currently nothing new.

277
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:34.399
So so here's the situation at eight ten pm Central time,

278
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:40.639
February the twenty fourth, twenty twenty five. Sermon the Sermons

279
00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:43.360
two point oh app is Now if I go back

280
00:16:43.399 --> 00:16:46.879
to the app store, I'm gonna I'm gonna search for

281
00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:50.399
it together and the Apple app Store. Now, if I

282
00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:53.960
do a search for sermons two point oh, what's gonna

283
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:56.799
come up is going to be? So the Sermons two

284
00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:59.919
point oh app is not the Sermons three point oh app.

285
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:02.000
All right, So no longer look for Sermons two point

286
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:03.919
oh or Sermon's three point oh. If you want to

287
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.400
directly search for it, it's now Sermons by Sermon Audio

288
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:10.279
it's now sermons by It's not Sermon's two point oh.

289
00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:13.279
It's not sermons three point oh. It's sermons by Sermon Audio.

290
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:17.359
Even all they're even though everything that they're promoting says

291
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:20.240
sermons three point zero. And if you open the app,

292
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:23.039
it says welcome to sermons three point oh, which is

293
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.319
a little bit kind of confusing in my It's kind

294
00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:28.640
of confusing messaging, right because it says welcome to sermons

295
00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:30.920
three point zero. If I do a search for a

296
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:33.359
sermons three point oh, I'm not going to see sermons

297
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:36.119
three point oh in the app store. What I'm going

298
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:39.559
to see is sermons by Sermon Audio. So it's a

299
00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:41.720
little I'm not saying it's a major deal, but I'm

300
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:44.359
just saying you want it, like make it, call it

301
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:48.519
in the app store sermons three point oh. I mean,

302
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:51.119
if if you open the app, or if in all

303
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.799
of your promotion material you're saying sermons three point oh,

304
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:56.240
that's what people are going to search for. I'm assuming

305
00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:58.039
if I do a search, if I do a search

306
00:17:58.039 --> 00:17:59.720
for sermons three point oh, will it come up. Let

307
00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:03.400
me see here what happens if I type in sermons

308
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:07.000
three point zero Sermons three point oh. Let's see what

309
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:11.680
happens sermons three point oh. Okay, it will you will

310
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.279
find it. Okay, uh, you will find it. So sermons

311
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:17.400
three point oh will still get you there. But when

312
00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:20.000
you get there, you're gonna you're not gonna see sermons

313
00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:22.119
three point oh. You're gonna see something that says sermons

314
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:24.400
by sermon audio. So if you tell someone download the

315
00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:28.039
sermons three point oh app, they may depending on their

316
00:18:28.279 --> 00:18:31.640
technological knowledge, they may they may or you know, they

317
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:35.240
are their sophistication, they may call you back going there

318
00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:38.319
isn't a sermons three point oh app. So don't tell

319
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.160
people to search for a sermons three point oh app.

320
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:43.960
Tell people to search for sermons by sermonadio app, okay,

321
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:47.359
because that's what it's called. I at first it caught

322
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:48.839
me off guard because I was like, well, well, there's

323
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:50.599
the what happened to sermons two points I don't see

324
00:18:50.599 --> 00:18:52.559
sermon's two point oh? I don't see sermons three point oh.

325
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:54.799
I mean, but I immediately kind of realized, oh, it

326
00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:56.920
says update, So then I knew that was it. But

327
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:00.559
it's called sermons by sermon audio. So again, little after

328
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.839
eight pm Monday, February the twenty fourth, twenty twenty five,

329
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:08.319
Sermon Audio has updated the Sermons two point oh app

330
00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:12.119
to now be the Sermons by Sermon Audio App. It's

331
00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:14.039
not the Sermons three point oh app, even though you

332
00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:17.680
see that's how it's marketed. Once you open the app,

333
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:22.359
if you immediately go to the more tab, you can

334
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.799
set it up for the light mode or dark mode

335
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.279
or just your what is it called? Hang and let

336
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:32.599
me see here. You're it's under theme system default, right,

337
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:36.680
and you may like the dark dark mode better. It

338
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:39.319
is there that works perfect. However, if you look on

339
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:42.759
the more tab, you're gonna see hymnal and salter. If

340
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:45.160
you tap on that, it's not gonna open in the app,

341
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:47.880
It's going to take you to the website. If you

342
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:50.359
click on Daily Devotional, which you would really want the

343
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:53.359
Daily devotional to be able to access it through the app, right,

344
00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:57.559
And why wouldn't you have like on the Discover tab,

345
00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:03.240
why wouldn't you have a section called Daily Devotional? Right?

346
00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:08.920
And if the Daily Devotional, yeah, I can I fall

347
00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:10.759
hang on, let me see something and go back to

348
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:13.359
If I go to Daily Devotional, it opens on the

349
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:16.720
it opens on the website. And guess what, I can't

350
00:20:16.759 --> 00:20:22.079
follow it. I can't. If I could follow it, then

351
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:24.440
the daily devotional would show up in my feed tab

352
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:29.599
for morning, evening and the Daily Checkbook. It's Spurgeon's morning devotional,

353
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:32.119
which should show up in my feed tab when in

354
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:36.039
the morning. Spurgeon's Evening should show up when in my

355
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:39.079
feedtab in the evening and the Daily Checkbook. I say,

356
00:20:39.119 --> 00:20:40.640
I think they should have it set to show up

357
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:43.720
in the feedtab around noon. Then you would have three

358
00:20:43.720 --> 00:20:47.160
devotionals each day, morning, noon, evening, and if you show

359
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:49.119
up in your feed tab or you should at least

360
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:51.640
be able to follow it as a series. But you

361
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.480
can't follow it. You can't open it in the app.

362
00:20:57.720 --> 00:20:59.440
I mean, I guess it's cool that the app will

363
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:01.200
get me there, but why wouldn't it open up in

364
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.880
the app? All right, So, all right, I know what.

365
00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:05.839
I'm not trying to sound negative, but I'm just saying

366
00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:07.880
that just seems odd to me. Then the Church finder

367
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.480
again does not open in the app. It takes you

368
00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:15.200
to the website. Radio works, the QR scanner. Okay, that's great,

369
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:19.160
Settings works, account works, and in the account you'll want

370
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:21.839
to log in because here is the cool thing. If

371
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:27.400
you listen to something or save something on the website,

372
00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:30.920
it will now show up on the app as listen

373
00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:34.160
to saved, whatever the case may be. All right, then

374
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:39.640
there's the help tab. The feed tab looks normal. I

375
00:21:39.640 --> 00:21:41.359
thought there was going to be some improvement on the

376
00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:43.720
feed tab. I don't know exactly what that improvement is.

377
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:46.559
I'd have to try to dig in and see. I'm

378
00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:48.920
not seeing anything that it looks different. Maybe it's gonna

379
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:55.240
update quicker. I don't know. Discover tab looks the exact same.

380
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:58.000
I haven't done much with searching. I don't know if

381
00:21:58.039 --> 00:22:01.160
searching is going to be any different. If I type

382
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:06.160
in theology, see what happens If I type in theology, Oh,

383
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:09.400
I get sermons, I get broadcasters. We do show up there. Okay,

384
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.960
that's good. And then we get series that's oh, I

385
00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:20.759
guess these are series. That's weird. I do a search

386
00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:23.480
for theology, and the series I get Reading the Bible Daily.

387
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:28.559
Is it listed under theology or something that's interesting? The

388
00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:34.240
Christian podcast Spotlight. Oh, maybe because I have a message. Okay,

389
00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:38.559
maybe it's because hang on, let me look here. Hang on,

390
00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:41.559
Why is this one under under the theology Okay, I'm not.

391
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:44.119
I would have to do some searching, all right, that's

392
00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:47.480
just weird. Reading the Bible Daily shows up when I

393
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.079
do a search for theology under the series tab. But

394
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:57.359
I'm not seeing any messages in there labeled theology or

395
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:02.480
titled theology. So where is that coming from? Maybe in

396
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:07.480
their description somewhere? Yeah, I would have it would spend

397
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:09.519
I would spend a couple of hours looking through all

398
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:11.960
the show more. Hang on, Oh there it is, there,

399
00:23:11.960 --> 00:23:14.759
it is. It's in the description. Reading the Bible Daily

400
00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:17.920
with Dave is devoted to helping increase your daily exposure

401
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.000
to God's Word with a short scripture reading and brief

402
00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:23.519
commentary on key ideas. Hmm, that sounds kind of like

403
00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:25.960
Bible recap. All right. I bet you he didn't know

404
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:28.279
he can make a couple of million dollars off this idea.

405
00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:31.359
All right, But, according to the news article from the

406
00:23:31.400 --> 00:23:34.799
Christian Post, the Bible recaps idea to do well, they

407
00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:38.160
didn't even do a scripture reading. They just did the

408
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:42.359
little commentary. They're making millions. Okay, right, so, but it says, well,

409
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:46.039
a brief commentary on key ideas, themes and theology in

410
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:50.640
each chapter all right, I'm gonna wait, I can't Okay,

411
00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:53.559
I'm gonna follow Can I follow this? I'm gonna follow that.

412
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:56.480
I'm gonna I'm gonna try one out later. Okay, So

413
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:00.240
I'm gonna do that, all right, So the s which

414
00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:02.079
looks pretty good. I was a little confused there for

415
00:24:02.119 --> 00:24:05.160
a second. That looks good. So there you have it.

416
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:08.319
I'm going to click on so on the on the

417
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:10.480
very when you open up the app, at the very top,

418
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.519
it says welcome to Sermons three point oh. If you

419
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:18.920
tap on that, it takes you to the website. Oh

420
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:21.960
my goodness, gracious, I wonder how many things in the

421
00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:26.160
app are going to take us to the website. Because

422
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:29.039
here's here's the reality of it. If let's see, I'm

423
00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:30.680
not saying there's a lot of things, but let's say

424
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.000
there's multiple things that keep taking you to the website.

425
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:35.960
You're just driving people. The app is driving people to

426
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:38.880
the website. Shouldn't the website be driving people to the app?

427
00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:45.920
So there you have it. But if you'll tap on

428
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:47.960
the if you open the app and you see welcome

429
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:50.720
to service Street. But point oh, if you tap on that,

430
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:53.759
it will then't take you to the article. Giving you

431
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:59.000
all the major updates there, so I think the big one.

432
00:24:59.440 --> 00:25:02.480
So for me, if I go to the moretab, the

433
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:06.400
daily devotional, if I look the hymnal insalter. Okay, you

434
00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:09.079
can lead people to the website, but the daily devotional.

435
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:14.200
If you're gonna have the sermons by sermon audio app

436
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:16.079
not no longer the sermon's two point oh, no longer

437
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:18.000
the sermon's three point oh app. If you're going to

438
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.400
have the app, wouldn't one of the great features be

439
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:25.200
the daily devotional put together by sermon Audio, which is

440
00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:30.440
the text and the audio of Spurgeons Morning and Evening Devotional.

441
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.559
So you have morning, evening and his Daily Checkbook. So

442
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:36.200
wouldn't it be great you could follow that and then

443
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:40.680
in your feed you would get the morning, you would

444
00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:42.880
get the afternoon Daily Checkbook, and then you would get

445
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:45.839
the evening. Wouldn't that be great? Three different ones, three

446
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:50.160
different times, so your feed has content morning, evening, morning, afternoon,

447
00:25:50.200 --> 00:25:52.920
and evening of a day of a devotional nature. Wouldn't

448
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:57.000
that be awesome? Or at the very least you can

449
00:25:57.079 --> 00:25:59.480
follow it, so it'd be under your followed series and

450
00:25:59.519 --> 00:26:04.799
then each and it would be updated. There's got to

451
00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:06.640
be a way to pull that off, right, don't you think?

452
00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:10.279
I think so? So, there we have it. That's the latest.

453
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:13.799
I just wanted everyone to know and we'll keep track

454
00:26:13.880 --> 00:26:16.880
and see. Please, I am not I don't want anyone

455
00:26:16.920 --> 00:26:18.599
to walk away. And he was very critical. I'm just

456
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:21.400
pointing out what I see. I'm not being critical. I'm

457
00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:24.960
doing nothing but hoping for more updates, and I'm just

458
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.480
trying to give real time feedback, real time feedback. If

459
00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:30.480
I'm looking at this app and they, let's say they

460
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:32.039
handed me the app and say we want you to

461
00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:34.279
be a tester, that would be the first things I

462
00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:37.200
would write down. Why are these things not opening within

463
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:39.200
the app? Why are they taking me to the website?

464
00:26:39.519 --> 00:26:42.119
If I have the app, I don't want to use

465
00:26:42.119 --> 00:26:44.440
the app to get to the website. I want to

466
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:47.279
be able to use the app, and if I'm going

467
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:49.359
to be taken to the website, then I'll just use

468
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:52.119
the website. But I don't want to use the website.

469
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:56.160
I would rather just have an app on my device, right, right,

470
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:58.200
wouldn't that be better just to have the app on

471
00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:02.920
your device? So, at least I think so? Right, at

472
00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:06.599
least I think so so that that would be my

473
00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:10.799
immediate feedback. Now I'm waiting for those other features, you know,

474
00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:16.039
better discovery tools, notifications, right, some of those are some

475
00:27:16.119 --> 00:27:18.359
of the things that I'm definitely wanting I be. I

476
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:21.240
don't I have to look you see? Can I follow

477
00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:25.079
more broadcasters? Oh? Hang on, hang on, let me look here,

478
00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:27.480
Let me look here. I didn't even think about this

479
00:27:28.680 --> 00:27:32.720
because before I could no longer follow anything else. So

480
00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:36.200
hang on, let me go to newest sermons. When the

481
00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:40.359
dog next door is going crazy? Right, Okay, hang on,

482
00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:45.440

483
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:48.240
Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on,

484
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:52.279
let me see here. Let me go here. I'm gonna

485
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:57.480
go to this church. Follow Oo, Ladies and gentlemen, something

486
00:27:57.599 --> 00:28:00.200
is going on here? Hang on, hang on, hang on,

487
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:05.200
hang on? Oh go here. Oh I've been able to

488
00:28:05.200 --> 00:28:07.720
follow three? What is going on? What is going on?

489
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:14.000
Hang on? What is happening? What is happening? Follow? What

490
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:18.720
is happening? Ladies and gentlemen? Have they removed? Have they

491
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:21.440
removed it? They sure didn't? Are they sure not? Did

492
00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:27.359
not promote it? Oh? I'm not getting None of these

493
00:28:27.359 --> 00:28:30.519
are telling me I can't follow. Oh ladies and gentlemen,

494
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:32.240
we may you may be able to be able to

495
00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:36.960
follow as many as you want. Now, Oh, I am

496
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:40.480
not seeing a limit, ladies and gentlemen, I am not

497
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:50.200
seeing a limit. I am not okay, so far, there

498
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:53.799
doesn't appear to be a limit. There does not appear

499
00:28:53.880 --> 00:28:59.799
to be a limit. Hang on going here? Oh wow,

500
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:04.200
hang on, let's do a search for hang on. We

501
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:07.839
may be onto something. I had to delete myself, but

502
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:10.200
I used to like to see my stuff show up

503
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:13.759
because I wanted to know that it was showing up

504
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:16.640
in the feed, right, I wanted to monitor it. Right,

505
00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:21.160
it's for monitoring purposes, right, Okay, I was able to

506
00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:24.359
follow multiple ones, so maybe the limit has been removed.

507
00:29:24.359 --> 00:29:27.759
They didn't put that in any of the UH promotional material,

508
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:30.839
So maybe you can. You can see how many you

509
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:33.119
can follow. So if hang on, let me go to

510
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.720
my library followed broadcasters. Let me see how many I

511
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:39.839
have here. I'm going to count. I'm going to count here.

512
00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:52.920
Hang on, I'm going to count. All right, I have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen,

513
00:29:53.000 --> 00:29:56.039

00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:18.880
fifty nine, sixty, sixty one, sixty two, sixty three, sixty four,

521
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:22.960
sixty five, sixty six, sixty seven, sixty eight, sixty nine, seventy,

522
00:30:23.079 --> 00:30:29.000
seventy one, seventy two. But wait a minute, hang on,

523
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:34.480
something's weird here because the ones I just followed. Okay,

524
00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:39.279
something is not showing up. Okay, wait now it's not loading.

525
00:30:39.319 --> 00:30:44.319
Hang on, hang on, let me go here. Uh oh,

526
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:54.240
something happened. Okay, now it's not loading. Something happened. I'm

527
00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:57.200
going to close the app completely, go back in. We

528
00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:03.519
may have a crash occurring. All right, library followed broadcasters.

529
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:06.079
All right, here we go, All right, there we go.

530
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:11.920
It's loading. Okay, Uh, all the ones I followed are

531
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:16.519
not showing up. There's still more than thirty something here,

532
00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:23.359
but the ones I followed are not here. That hang on,

533
00:31:23.480 --> 00:31:27.640
let me do another search here, do it Theology Theology Central.

534
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:31.960
Go here. Oh see, I said follow, but then when

535
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:36.599
I went out, it may not be working. Oh man, okay,

536
00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:43.680
hang on, do a refresh, do a refresh. Yeah, it's

537
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:47.400
not working. It's not working. Now I'm going to go out,

538
00:31:47.519 --> 00:31:52.359
go back in. Hang on, I'm going to go back

539
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:57.599
to Discover. I'm going to do search Theology Central. I'm

540
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:00.440
going to go back to Theology Central. Yep. I'm hitting

541
00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:04.079
follow and then it's not following, So I don't know

542
00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:06.839
what's going on. It is listing far more than thirty

543
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:10.440
four thirty seven when I on the tab, but all

544
00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:14.799
the ones I'm following they're not showing up. So so

545
00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:17.599
something's up with the follow tab. Something's up with the

546
00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:20.279
follow tab. Either there's a limit and it's just not

547
00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:24.079
telling you there's a limit, or something's going on. So

548
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:26.920
we need to keep a track of that. So what

549
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:33.000
are our issues in the more tab? Hymnal, Insulter, Daily Devotional,

550
00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:35.640
and Church funder None of them open actually within the app,

551
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:38.799
the daily devotional, I think would be essential to have

552
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:41.119
it not only opening in the app, I can follow it,

553
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:45.680
and the content should drop more spurgeons morning, a devotional

554
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:48.920
in the morning, checkbook at noon, and evening in the evening,

555
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:51.960
and I should update every day on your feed, all right,

556
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:54.079
I don't know. I mean that to me just is

557
00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:56.920
a given. Everybody should want that, all right. So those

558
00:32:56.960 --> 00:32:59.039
don't open if you go to the home tab at

559
00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:01.559
the banners the top that says welcome to the sermon's

560
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:03.680
three point oh. If you tap on that, that doesn't

561
00:33:03.720 --> 00:33:05.640
even open up within the app, that takes you to

562
00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:08.680
the website. And not only that, if you try to

563
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:11.920
follow things, at least right now, if I try to follow,

564
00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:14.359
it's telling me it's following. But then when I go

565
00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:15.720
back out of that and come back in, it's not

566
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:18.400
following it, and it's not showing up in my followed broadcasters.

567
00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:25.240
Not only that, it's not telling me if there's too many,

568
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:27.599
too little, So I don't really know what's going on there.

569
00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:29.559
So we need to figure that out. Those are the

570
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:33.359
current issues that I am finding. You can tell me

571
00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:36.440
what you find, all right. Now, that's our very brief

572
00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:42.079
in real time reaction to it. The dark mode does

573
00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:47.279
look nice. I think the most important thing at this

574
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:50.599
very moment are not the things I just pointed out. Well,

575
00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:54.960
the following broadcasters is important. If that's not working. I mean,

576
00:33:55.559 --> 00:33:59.000
if you want go delete every broadcaster that you're currently following,

577
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:01.720
delete them all, and then try to follow anybody. And

578
00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:03.640
if it won't let you follow anybody, then that's a

579
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:09.239
major issue. That's a big issue. Okay, So hopefully they

580
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:12.000
get that fixed immediately, all right, But I guess the

581
00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:15.239
most pressing thing is for Android users. Can you start

582
00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:18.920
playing something, leave the app, go do other things and

583
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.480
it continues to play or does it close out? If

584
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:25.039
it does, then they have not fixed that problem, and

585
00:34:25.079 --> 00:34:27.880
that would be a huge deal for the Android users. Okay,

586
00:34:28.079 --> 00:34:31.800
I can't test that because you know, some of us

587
00:34:31.880 --> 00:34:35.079
have greater levels of sanctification than others, and we've moved

588
00:34:35.159 --> 00:34:41.400
past the worldly, ungodly, satanic, anti Christ inspired Android devices. Okay,

589
00:34:41.400 --> 00:34:43.920
A little bit of a joke, just a joke. Don't

590
00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:47.159
get offended, all right, So now is what some of

591
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:49.679
you are saying. But on my Android device, I can

592
00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:53.480
actually follow people unlike your Apple device. Okay, yeah, you

593
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:56.840
probably there's probably something that will actually work that's not

594
00:34:56.840 --> 00:35:00.119
working currently for me. That's the latest. We will be

595
00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:03.599
talking about the app more tomorrow as we get more

596
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:06.639
information and we see how it develops. I'm hoping that

597
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:12.400
we start getting updates, like I don't know, every other day.

598
00:35:13.400 --> 00:35:15.960
This is fixed, this is working better, We've added this,

599
00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:19.199
we changed this, you know, every other week. I don't know,

600
00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:23.679
something on a pretty consistent basis. So and you can,

601
00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:25.400
I mean, it's up. You may and not have a

602
00:35:25.400 --> 00:35:27.360
problem with it going to the website. Just for me,

603
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:31.119
if I have an app, I have an app because

604
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:33.840
I want to use the app. I don't want to

605
00:35:33.880 --> 00:35:37.039
use the app and the website. I have the app

606
00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:40.079
make all the content available within the app. And you say,

607
00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:42.400
well we can't make some content available within the app,

608
00:35:43.480 --> 00:35:46.079
Well then I don't know. I mean, then do I

609
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:48.800
really want the content even listed there because I'm going

610
00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:50.360
to have to go somewhere else to get it. I

611
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:54.760
don't know. I don't know. I'm conflicted on that. But

612
00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:58.119
the daily devotional that should be within the app, I mean,

613
00:35:58.159 --> 00:36:01.039
come on, I mean that's one of the and you

614
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:05.079
know what's crazy, the daily devotional I don't remember when

615
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:06.960
I found it, but I was able to get the

616
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:11.079
RSS feed for the daily devotional from Sermonaudio. And guess

617
00:36:11.079 --> 00:36:15.079
what I have that RSS feed plugged into different podcasting

618
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:19.320
apps pocket Cast, Overcast, there's a number of them, and

619
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:25.000
guess what I get the notification every evening. Here are

620
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:28.280
the daily devotionals from Sermon Audio, and I get them

621
00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:31.519
and guess what they play within the app? So I

622
00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:35.440
can take the RSS feed, plug it into another podcast

623
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:38.440
player and get the daily devotional sent to me and

624
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:41.840
a podcasting app that's not the Sermon Audio app. Is

625
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:44.840
that not crazy? I can't listen to the daily devotionals

626
00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:47.320
on the Sermon Audio app, but I can listen to

627
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:50.880
the daily devotionals from Sermonadio on any other podcasting app

628
00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:54.400
that allows me to subscribe via an RSS feed. That's

629
00:36:56.599 --> 00:37:01.480
that's ridiculous. Okay, that shouldn't be that way all right now, again,

630
00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:06.320
these are just I'm just making observations, right Still, download

631
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:08.239
it the app again, it's not the Sermon's two point oh,

632
00:37:08.360 --> 00:37:10.639
Sermon's three point oh. It's now Sermons by Sermon Audio.

633
00:37:11.000 --> 00:37:14.320
Download it, enjoy it. We'll talk more about it now.

634
00:37:14.480 --> 00:37:16.840
The show I was watching I've already missed about half

635
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:18.559
of it, all right, so I'm gonna go run back

636
00:37:18.559 --> 00:37:20.519
downstairs and try to catch up. All right, everyone, have

637
00:37:20.559 --> 00:37:23.559
a great day, a great day. What am I talking about?

638
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:27.519
Great evening, great night, great morning, whatever. Just use the

639
00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:30.519
app and see what you like. And hey, if you

640
00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:34.920
do email them right or you do post anything, please

641
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:37.800
do so in a respectful manner. Hey, I noticed this,

642
00:37:37.880 --> 00:37:40.320
and this. You may already I noticed this. You may

643
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:42.719
already be aware of it. If not, I would like

644
00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:46.800
this or like that, and a just providing feedback. Don't

645
00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:50.119
don't whine and complain. I saw this when sirius XM

646
00:37:50.199 --> 00:37:54.239
updated their app. People act like they had been beaten

647
00:37:54.360 --> 00:37:58.159
with a baseball bat and treated horribly. And they were

648
00:37:58.199 --> 00:38:00.360
mad because they couldn't find deep tracks and they were

649
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:02.239
all upset and they were mad and they were never

650
00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:04.639
going to listen again. And that's just it, and this

651
00:38:04.719 --> 00:38:06.960
is horrible. They can't find their favorite channel. When did

652
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:08.719
they move their favorite channel? I'm like, I don't know.

653
00:38:08.760 --> 00:38:10.800
You could just search deep tracks and there it is? Okay,

654
00:38:10.840 --> 00:38:13.000
but all right, So, and there was some things that

655
00:38:13.039 --> 00:38:15.719
at first wasn't great about the serious ExM app, but

656
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:17.800
it was a whole lot better and a lot of

657
00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:20.239
ways than the old one. So same thing here. We

658
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:23.519
have to be patient, but they need feedback, So there's

659
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:26.960
a you don't want to not send feedback because they

660
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:29.079
need it, but you don't want to send feedback where

661
00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:32.559
you're whining and complaining and being a jerk. So do

662
00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:36.559
so in a nice, constructive way, right. Hopefully if they

663
00:38:36.599 --> 00:38:38.960
hear this, they will take it in the spirit which

664
00:38:38.960 --> 00:38:41.079
it's meant. Hey, I want it to be great, and

665
00:38:41.119 --> 00:38:43.440
I'm doing everything I can to promote it. I've been

666
00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:46.559
telling people to download the app all of twenty twenty four,

667
00:38:46.760 --> 00:38:49.280
well going into twenty twenty three, all of twenty twenty four,

668
00:38:49.679 --> 00:38:52.320
and I can continue promoting and telling people to download

669
00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:54.880
the app into twenty twenty five. So I will continue

670
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:58.719
to promote it, and hopefully it'll get better and better

671
00:38:58.719 --> 00:39:01.920
and better and it'll be a great tool, great resource

672
00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:05.599
for everyone. Everyone. Have a great night, God bless
