Hi,

I’m super keen on using the interlinear bible feature.

I wondering if the Interlinear bible works on both android and iOS mobile devices?

Due to financial and logistical circumstances I can only use a mobile device and can’t afford a tablet or laptop. 

Thank you in advance,

God Bless

    Hi - and welcome to the forums

    Interlinear resources are available on both iOS and Android devices.

    On iOS you can control which interlinear lines appear, on Android you can't.

    But you may be talking about some of the tagging you get with "reverse-interlinears" in Logos, some of which is available on mobile devices and some isn't.

    Can you clarify what particular features you are interested in?

    Thanks, Graham

    I did not know that! Any idea how to turn it on?

    I believe (might be wrong!) that the actual interlinear display only works with a very small set of resources with titles in this format: "Lexham [Hebrew/Greek/Latin]-English Interlinear [Text - e.g. Bible, Vulgate,Septuagint etc]" - access additional lines through the view settings. They're available whether you're online or offline.

    The normal pop-up options for word lookups (when you double tap on a word) where you can bring up interlinear-style info for individual words work offline for original languages, but require an internet connection for English resources.

    Ah yes. Thank you and you are correct. I must have missed that new feature somewhere

    Hi, thanks so so much for your response.

    In terms of features the main thing I am after is the OT and NT to be displayed in line by line with the English and then either the Hebrew or Greek lines underneath on the same page. I was hoping for this in the NASB translation.

    Is this possible on an iPhone as well as an Android Mobile?

    Thanks

    Not at the moment, no - you can look up any word (provided you have an internet connection and you have reverse interlinear datasets) by long-pressing or double-tapping the word, but you can't get interlinear lines displayed for them on screen. Hopefully it will arrive eventually, but I wouldn't get your hopes up for it in the short term.

    I use a layout with the English, Hebrew and Greek texts as separate tabs that are synced with each other. It allows me to get similar information without too much effort, and it has it's perks over interlinears, but it's not the same, obviously.

    Ah ok, thank you for letting me know brother. Shame it’s going to be a long wait for it. I’ll have to look elsewhere. 

    Thank you and God Bless

    I just took a quick sweep through this thread and wondered if this layout would help in any way...

    I noticed in my iOS iphone, using the Logos mobile app, I can add a layout/screen, and select the Exegetical Guide to fill that layout/screen.

    The Exegetical Guide has a "Word by Word" section that provides all the same information as the Interlinear, and it actually gives more information than an interlinear view, because it shows translations from multiple lexicons/dictionaries

    Below is the Exegetical Guide on my desktop.

    It is similar on my iOS iphone, using the Logos app, where only my top 3 prioritized dictionaries appear, and I don't have the option to expand to all 20 dictionaries I have on my desktop.  But the top 3 prioritized dictionaries are enough when mobile, and this is more than I get with an interlinear.

    Below is the Exegetical Guide on my desktop.

    Below is the Exegetical Guide on the Logos mobile app on my iphone

    Hope this helps users looking for the interlinear view on their logos mobile app

    Hi, this is really cool and looks like it’s the closest we can get on mobile to the interlinear view. However, the primary thing i use on the inter linear view is the “sense” feature. Do you you know of another way to get the sense of a particular word, in a particular verse, other than interlinear view?
