Our Review
Catholic Vietnamese Holy Bible is a free Bible reader with the Catholic canon in Vietnamese, plus a few English Catholic translations and some audio.
You get the full Catholic Bible — Old Testament, New Testament, and the deuterocanonical books that Protestant Bibles leave out (Tobit, Sirach, Wisdom, Baruch, the two books of Maccabees, the longer sections of Daniel and Esther). Several English Catholic translations are also available — the New American Bible, the Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition, and the Douay-Rheims. There's audio for some sections, bookmarks, search, and font controls.
What I appreciate is that it actually delivers a Catholic Bible in Vietnamese, which is harder to find than you'd think. The audio adds another option for older readers, for commuters, or for anyone whose eyesight has started to slip.
Useful in any Vietnamese Catholic household, parish, or RCIA setting. Also a fit for Vietnamese-American families who want their kids to read Scripture in both English and Vietnamese — switching between translations is a few taps.
The interface is plain. It does what it needs to and not much more. There aren't reading plans, daily devotions, or social features. The audio quality varies. And if you don't read Vietnamese, the English translations are the same Catholic editions you can get in many other apps, so this isn't the one to download for English-only reading.

App Store Description
The Catholic Bible includes books of the Old Testament and New Testament and several books excluded by Protestant Bibles. The specific richness and history of our Catholic faith can be found in several Roman Catholic Bible translations. One of the most popular Catholic Bibles is the New American Bible (NAB). Some earlier translations include the Revised Standard Version - Catholic Edition (RSV-CE), the Douay-Rheims (the earliest translation from the original Latin), and the Navarre Bible.
The Bible in the Catholic tradition differs in the number and order of books from those typically found in Bibles used by Protestants, because it includes the deuterocanonical books, which Protestants call the Apocrypha. Its canon of Old Testament texts is somewhat larger than that in translations used by Protestants, which are typically based exclusively on the shorter Hebrew and Aramaic Masoretic Text. On the other hand, its canon, which does not accept all the books that are included in the Septuagint,[16] is shorter than that of some churches of Eastern and Oriental Orthodoxy, which recognize other books as sacred scripture.
