The LifeDiscipler; Reviewed


The LifeDiscipler was a very cool and interesting product that I had fun reviewing. It's unique, and intuitive, and pretty cool-looking, as well. So what exactly is it?

The LifeDiscipler is a pocket guide to the Bible. Basically, you pick a topic that's relevant to you (such as money, the future, etc.) or completely randomize it, then set a time limit for every 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Once that's done, you simply go through your normal life and you will be alerted to a different verse that's relevant to you in your current life struggles, or it simply lifts your spirits.

The Good:
-The design itself resembles an mp3 player, so I had a few people asking me what the brand was, and I was able to share a bit of the gospel with some of them.
-The interface is pretty intuitive and easy to navigate; within 10 minutes I had fully explored all the functions and was able to navigate without any problems.
-It did what it advertised and helped me through some days in which focusing on God was near impossible.

The Bad:
- The main problem I had was the alarm. Being a college student as well as working nearly full time, I constantly had to shut off the alarm, which basically rendered it useless other than typical browsing of the Bible. A vibrate function would be much better suited for a constant on the go lifestyle. However, I understand that it was created to be affordable to anyone, so I can't really complain about that.

All in all, I found it to be a decent product that did what it advertised. It helped break up the monotony of my day-to-day life and at times provided just the right verse at just the right time.
