Highlighting not showing in some Bibles
This may have already been addressed, but I couldn't find it. In some of my Bibles on my iPhone highlighting is not showing up in the text. Any thoughts on what I need to change to get these to appear?

There was an issue some months ago where highlights were not showing up in books that were not downloaded to the mobile device. Do you have the books downloaded? If not, try downloading them and see if the highlights appear. Please let us know if this makes any difference
What version of the mobila app are you running, and which version of iOS?

Not an iphone user, but you did say "Bibles" plural. Some highlighting results are version specific. I will leave it to others to explain the details, but this may have some impact on what you are seeing.

As I look a little deeper, it appears the highlights are only showing in the Bible that I did my highlighting in on my desktop. Does that help any? On my desktop they carry over to other versions, aren't on my phone.

Yes - this is the issue that David was alluding to above.
This functionality on desktop depends on something known as Notes and Highlights (Corresponding) and this feature is not currently available in the mobile apps

Ok. That solved that issue.

Found a workaround. I went in and added a non-bible specific reference, for example Genesis 3:15 instead of saying Genesis 3:15 ESV, and the highlight is showing in my other Bibles on my iPhone. If I do this for all of my highlights, its going to take a while, but at least I know that it will work.

Graham, I have never had any issue with highlights showing up on mobile beta but I do now! I have never had corresponding highlights checked on my laptop but actually that has made no difference. I have been reading in Isaiah and have highlights showing on my laptop (hp with win 11 insider) but they DO NOT show on my 9th gen ipad (not pro).

Hi Bob

Do you have the Bible downloaded on your iPad? If not, try downloading it and seeing if that changes anything
And do you have Show Notes / Highlights enabled in View Settings?
If those don't address the issue I suggest you start a new thread in this forum as it is different to what Alan was reporting

It was not initially downloaded (NET Bible 2nd ed) but it is now. There is another thread dealing with highlighting issues so I am not alone with this problem! I also checked to see if show notes and highlights is checked and it was.
