GO BACK TO Graph Selections
Use this app all the time. Was really great until they decided to change how you select book, chapter and verse. Takes a lot longer now to scroll thru to get to selections you want. If you want to go to Titus you have to scroll all the way thru the Old Testament to get there for example! The graph method was sooo much better and faster where you see all the selctions on one screen without scrolling. PLEASE GO BACK TO THIS! Also, how 'bout a back button so you can go back to the last selection you made. Sometimes you want to stay in the same book but only go to another chapter. Thanks.
The best there is
This is the best Bible app by far. The ability to have a split screen, and to choose what goes in which screen, is amazing. For example, you can have the normal setup of, say, ESV text in top pane and ESV study bible below. But you could also have NIV text in the top pane, and KJV text below. Or ESV study bible notes with KJV text.
Highlighting and bookmarking functions are ample and effective. Search works very well. Navigation is easy.
App is nearly perfect. Only two suggestions: add a spoken bible feature (basically, the Bible as an audiobook). The Crossways ESV app has this (but that app is inferior in all other ways). Secondly, please add Windows support. I've spent a significant amount on content and it is frustrating to be forced to use the IPad when I am home on my desktop PC.
But those are minor gripes/ suggestions. Olive Tree is an amazing app.
Happy user
I am enjoying this app. It seems to be the best on an iPad of its kind.
Now just looking for the Windows version said to be out this winter.
Only complaint would be the price of the resources. Some resources come with much more free resources. Everything here seems as expensive as buying the full printed versions.
