However, when using the links on words to Strong’s Concordance, then use further links found in the definition of the word, there is no back button. So you need to go back to the bible, find the word again, click on the link to return to where you were(!). Sometimes there is no way back at all (typically when you go to dictionaries). You need to shut down the app and start again!Would be so much more helpful if, when using a link in the reference under a Strong’s number, you could easily return to the original or previous number. A ‘back’ button would be so amazingly useful! :) and the navigation buttons at the bottom works be helpful on the dictionary/lexicon page :) Thank you for a great app!
Better than anything else, but...

A marvellous app but after paying I soon realised its not compatible with my iPad version, they’re slightly different, iPhone is LT & iPad is HD, this makes no sense at all. I didn’t mind paying twice because overall it’s excellent and wanted to support it, but it was a shock that they’re not compatible. The iPhone doesn’t have an editor button so I can’t put notes in, again useless. And, on both there isn’t a go back button so you have to find your own way back, a bit time consuming. Despite these flaws it’s excellent, but would you the developer please consider fixing these issues as they’re a big deal.
Let down by lack of iCloud sync

A much loved app, that in the many years I have used it has become an indispensable aid to Bible study. But it’s such a pity that the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps are all quite separate with no syncing of content/settings between them. For example, notes/highlights added to one device require repeating a laborious backup/export/import workaround to be replicated on the others, which are instantly out of sync as soon as another note/highlight is added. Would be such a blessing to see iCloud sync enabled in a future update.
Fixed random audio Bible issues and improved access reliability!
