Mobile App Verse Scrolling

When tapping on a verse link that contains more than one verse I don't see any way to scroll through the remaining verses. The only option that I see is to "Jump to Reference" which opens a new window. Am I doing something wrong? The popup window that displays the verses should scroll through to the end of the link.

    When tapping on a verse link that contains more than one verse I don't see any way to scroll through the remaining verses. The only option that I see is to "Jump to Reference" which opens a new window.

    1. It can happen with a single verse

    2. Scrolling occurs, but only to show the "jump to reference" link

    3. "jump to reference" doesn't open a new tab/window (on Android). I have to use the "back" button to return.

    4. If it does open a new tab/window (version 6 app), you can return by a horizontal swipe (one finger or two fingers depending how you scroll thru a book).

    So you are not doing anything wrong - the Android apps have been this way for several versions.

    I also use the Olive Tree Bible Software on my iPhone. When tapping on a Bible verse link a popup window appears for the verse. Then you have the option to scroll in the popup window the verse or verses no matter how many there are. I'm really surprised that Logos doesn't offer the same option when opening Bible verse links. With Logos I only get the first verse to popup. If there is more than one verse I have to use the jump to reference option which opens a completely new window. Then I have to swipe back and forth between two windows. When using this option for numerous Bible verses I now have a bunch of windows open that need to be closed. I hope Logos changes how Bible verse links work. Thanks for your reply.

    I hope Logos changes how Bible verse links work.

    It would help if it was the same on iPhone and Android; which is why you need to report the device in your first post.

    I have noticed the same thing running the Andriod app on a Chromebook.  Using the browser app on the same machine, when hovering over a verse link, the entire verse reference shows up, not just the first verse.  I prefer the Andriod app but that one feature works better in the browser app.
