Still plugging away! Here's Settings.

iPad actions

Had a little spare time to work on the iPad this week. Since the last update:

• I've added the "Additional" tab on the left (below Bible and Reading Plans) for things like a Preface or other additional materials.
• I've added the Action button.

Most of the actions are working as-is, but there are a couple that need to be tweaked for iPad.

So ... it's coming along! I apologize for those who were hoping for a speedy iPad release (I certainly was!) but it is what it is. I very much want to get this in the store and will keep you updated.

4.1.1 update

I have submitted an update to the store. Issues addressed:

• Updated share-to-Facebook logic so that scriptures are displayed correctly when viewing from official Facebook app; single-sign-on also now supported
• Fixed infrequent crash that could occur when rotating device after displaying footnotes
• Fixed minor search bug that excluded words with footnotes 

Will let you know when it's available in the store!

UPDATE 6-JUN:

Now available for download from the store!

Viewing shared scriptures in Facebook app

Thank you to Mike B. for pointing out that if you view scriptures you shared from VerseWise in the Facebook app, the text of the scriptures are not displayed.

This was certainly working before! Perhaps Facebook is getting back at me for not keeping up-to-date with the FBConnect libraries. Updating to the latest should solve the problem.

3 Maccabees in KJV

A King James Version of 3 Maccabees is available, so why doesn't VerseWise KJV include it?

The source I used for KJV did not include it, so I did not know it was available!

Update:

Turns out my original conclusion was correct. The 3 Maccabees source I thought I found turned out to be 1 Esdras. And viewing this list of books in the King James, 3 Maccabees is not there. Case closed.

3 Maccabees is in the Revised Standard Version, so if you are interested in it take a look at VerseWise Bible RSV.

iPad reading plan

Still plugging away on the iPad. The "tab" interface is now fully implemented so you can easily bounce between Bible and Reading Plans.

Having the extra real estate does make the interface more complicated. The hooks that I have in the iPhone app for saving your place when a screen was exited do not apply here because that portion may very well stay visible on the screen while you do other things.
