Works great, and this might just be the killer feature now that makes me buy that large tablet!

Can't open the Bible! beta app on a Chromebook (not sure what Android version it's running, though). I know that's probably doubly unsupported, but just a heads-up. It shows the splash screen, adds the navigation bar up top for a second, then closes.

EDIT: I think this is actually an issue with my Chromebook. All my Android apps are misbehaving. False alarm!

These work well, however I have noticed the following issues:

1) Verses which are added by pressing enter after a verse do not show correctly formatted in the document in the Android app. Whereas blockquote text does

2) Questions are not formatted correctly in the text - they appear without any styling.

Other than that all looks good

Thanks for the report - both of these issue are already fixed in developer builds.
