iPhone 4

I hope those that got the new iPhone 4 are enjoying it!

I am working on updating the assets, including the application icon. As you can see, it will be quite an improvement over what is currently displayed on the iPhone 4.

I hope to have this out soon, along with the iOS 4 fix.

iOS 4

Those of you updating to iOS 4 today, you may notice a minor bug in VerseWise! The first time you run the app every day, the network indicator does not turn off.

This is slightly annoying, but nothing is happening -- the indicator is just erroneously staying on. I'll have a fix (along with some other minor fixes I need to do) in the store soon.

Bug fixes

Thank you to Andrew, John, Henry and Fr. Patrick for reporting bugs that will be fixed in the next update.

• Incorrect search results on more common words
• Chapter header sometimes incorrect when viewing text in landscape mode
• "Message of the day" under some ISP conditions causes app to redirect to Safari, unable to run

2.2.1 on the way

Hey all, sorry for the recent lack of information!

Working on a 2.2.1 release for all translations. I had released 2.2 for RSV and RSV-CE, but Apple asked me to change a certain function call I was making for future releases. I've addressed that and decided to work on the 3 or 4 (minor! :) bug reports users have sent me in. Hope to have something in the store soon!

Facebook for RSV & RSV-CE turned on

For those of you that have downloaded the 2.2 update for RSV and RSV-CE, I have just taken the Facebook interaction out of "sandbox mode". So now scriptures should be appearing correctly as you post them. My apologies, it was an oversight of mine when the 2.2 update appeared in the store.

RSV & RSV-CE 2.2 now in the app store

Added features:

• Email selected verses or post to Facebook
• Highlight verses
• Easily copy verses (with reference) to clipboard

I will submit the other Bible texts in the upcoming days.

2.2 update

Has it really been that long since my last update? Unfortunately "real life" intrudes on my VerseWise development. I'm still here and am starting to ramp up a real 2.2 update to the store.

I had been considering Twitter integration, but at this time it's too much work for too little gain. Maybe later! In consolation, I have added an easy "copy to clipboard" option that you can use to paste scriptures into your favorite Twitter client (or whatever other app you'd like to paste scriptures to).

Still debating what else to include in 2.2. I'd like to add user notes and reading plans, but the more stuff I add the longer it takes before release! I don't want it to be another two months before I can surface for air. There's always 2.3.
