Please bring the Copy Bible Verses feature from desktop to mobile. We need more control over how Bible text gets copied.

  • I wholeheartedly agree! Copying verses using the handles that iOS provides is clumsy and prone to mistakes. I also have to manually type in the reference and format it the way I like it. Being able to use the copy Bible verses tool that we have on the desktop would make lesson prep so much easier when I have to use my iPad. Thanks!
  • Formatted verse copy would be a great tool to use when I’m on my tablet!
  • Yes! Very cumbersome & tedious. Works much better in Mac version and PocketBible.
  • Please!
  • Agree with all … I hope developers recognize the movement away from desktop preparation to mobile app. 
  • This is one of the biggest missing features on Logos Mobile for me. I really enjoy using my iPad for reading commentaries and making highlights/notes. However, the lack of a convenient way to copy/paste passages into the app where I write my sermons (Ulysses) forces me to use my MacBook. Please make it possible to type in a reference (or list of references) and copy/paste verses. I would love control over formatting (since I’m writing in Markdown), but simply choosing from 2-3 formatting options wouldbe way better than what we currently have.
  • How is this still not getting any traction?  Tonight I stopped at a restaurant to grab a snack and do some Bible study on my iPad.  After battling just to copy some passages into my notes document, I gave up, went home and opened Logos on my Windows machine.  iOS is simply not capable of doing serious work, such as research and writing.  The copy verses tool would allow us to get around this terrible limitation of iOS.  Until this is added, the iOS app isn't very useful to me.  The web app was slightly better, but again, I was on my iPad.  It's clear to see why Apple doesn't promote the iPad Pro as a replacement for the Macbook Air.
  • I vote for this too. And I hope that it would have a shortcut like the mac version.

    This would save a lot of reformatting time!

  • Copy bible verses would be useful in both the web app and mobile apps. I often jump through hoops to do this on the go,  away from the Win desktop
  • Agree.  I use the iPad almost exclusively now and frequently have to convert verse numbers to superscript, etc.  Please make it work well with at least Apple Pages and MS Word.  Also, please include the option to copy footnotes, etc. as in the Mac version for both Pages and Word.
