Morphology and lemma tagging missing on iPhone?

I love the iPhone app. One thing that is causing me trouble is this: I thought the Greek texts that are available on iOS (SBLGNT, Robinson-Pierpoint) were supposed to be fully morphologically tagged. But when I select a Greek word, I only get morphology if the word is uninflected...  So basically only conjunctions, adverbs, and nominative nouns. So it seems like the info is there somewhere, but the words are not marked for lemma, and thus inflected forms are unrecognized. And for the same reason, I can't do a word study because it doesn't recognize what lexical form lies behind the inflected form.

Is just me, or a universal problem? If you can't get morphology for all the words, it's not very useful... If there was no morphological information, then I could understand, but it seems odd that I get it for some words and not others.

    It looks like you've spotted a bug (or perhaps a temporary limitation). It seems that you're right in that there's no morphology on offline resources, but online resources show morphology correctly.
