Create an original-language panel that will switch between preferred Hebrew and Greek translations a

Is there a way on mobile (iPadOS) to have an English translation in one panel of a split tab and the other panel linked to an original language version where the original language version will automatically switch between a Hebrew version and Greek version depending on the verse/pericope selected in the English translation?

I don’t think so. On desktop, you can create a “series.” When you move from book to book, any related book in the series will follow along. This feature is not implemented on mobile.

Thank you; I was afraid of that. I use the series feature on Desktop, and find it supremely useful. I'll make a request for this in Feedbear.

FYI it does work on Android but not on iOS.

Interesting. I think that’s promising. Out of curiosity, how does it work (or how does it get enabled) on Android?

In the mobile app there is nothing you have to do (or can do). If you create a custom series on the desktop it will automatically sync with the Android app. I tried it out this morning by setting a new series (Greek OT+NT) and it was immediately working when I reopened the Android app.

I use both iOS (iPad) and Android (phone). IMHO both operating systems have their advantages and downsides. In the following post I have listed the differences relating to the Logos Bible app that I noticed between iOS and Android: https://community.logos.com/forums/p/204917/1192056.aspx#1192056

This is great. It works the same way resource prioritization works from Desktop --> Mobile. So, if this eventually makes it's way to IOS, then I could expect that the series I have set up on Desktop should come over automatically. If this gets implemented in this manner on iOS, that would be wonderful.

+1 [Y] would appreciate series working on iOS.

Work around idea is opening a Bible twice in two tabs with split screens: one tab has Hebrew & Aramaic while the other tab has Greek New Testament. Link the Bible with original language resources for syncing location. For Old Testament reading, use tab with Hebrew & Aramaic split. For New Testament reading, use tab with Greek New Testament. Workflow has an extra swipe to change tabs when changing between Old & New Testaments.

I've played around with this. It's pretty manageable. Thanks for the thoughtful suggestion.
