Have you gotten the notes in some Bibles, like the NET, to work reliably?

By Lily Rose on Saturday, December 21, 2024 - 16:14

I use ESV and the can easily add and delete notes on that one. I didn't know the process was different for each version?

I do absolutely love this app. Only issue I've really ever had in the last few years is when trying to share a passage with multiple verses, even though I've double tapped each one, when I go to share or copy, only certain verses actually make it in to the selection. Any tips to know for sure what verses are selected before you either share or copy?

I use this app because I really like the broad variety of reading plans available, and there are enough to weed out the ones that are doctrinally questionable. I also like that you can set reminders because I have a terrible memory. I have, however, found quite a few issues. The home screen can be quite messy and cluttered. When you go to browse reading plans it used to be navigable by heading. It isn’t any more. You kind of get trapped in that screen and you have to move your finger around to try and get out of that particular section. For example, I was looking for the new plans, and I seem to get trapped in all the Christmas plans. I found it by moving my finger around the screen until I sort of got out of that section. if that screen was fixed, it would make an absolute world of difference. some nice headings back, or a category picker, would be really really helpful.

I also recommend the Blue Letter Bible app. All of the footnotes are accessible in that one, and there are a lot of other great study resources that are accessible. I also really like the way they have done their copy feature. It's completely accessible and works like a charm. The only issue I've run into is that sometimes the app freezes when swiping right or continuously reading when you go past what's visible on screen I think. You just have to go out of the app to the home screen and then back in to fix it.
I keep meaning to do an entry on Applevis for this app, but I keep forgetting. I'l try to do that tomorrow evening, if I can remember.

I'm sort of wondering when and why the name change for the app? But anyway...I downloaded it earlier last year and while I haven't used it much, I like it. I actually listened to the walkthrough on here done by someone else earlier, and I was unaware that you can create an account. Their website is not bad either with VoiceOver. I must admit though, that I'm not a huge fan of Joel Osteen for reasons which I will not go into on here.
