Is there an easy way to switch bible on iPad?

Timothy Yeung

Every time I try to switch bible, I need to go to Library, delete whatever in the search field and then type the bible name. Is there an easier method to switch bible within the bible reading page itself?

Love to hear some tips!

Hi Timothy

If you press on the page to bring up menus at top and bottom you will find a left-pointing arrow in the top left of the screen.

Pressing on this brings up your history which will allow you to easily open a Bible which you have read recently.

Unfortunately this takes you to the last place you were reading in that Bible as opposed to simply switching translation and maintaining the current passage.

Sorry but I don't know a better way - hopefully others will!

Good Morning:  You could use text comparison to do this if the Bible you want is listed there. This will keep you in the same Scripture reference.  Tap on the page to bring up the menu at the top.  Then tap the box with the arrow coming out of it.  Make sure the passage you want is listed in the drop down and then tap Text Comparison.  Then tap the Bible you want at the blue hyperlink on the left.

Thanks! Hope in future a drop down menu to choose will help

The favorites tool was designed for that purpose, but a quick reference drop down would be nice.  One other thing you might want to try if all you are doing is switching Bible translations, is to enter the following into the library search box:  type:bible & language:english   and then if you like tap the box with four squares in the upper right hand side and you can scroll to pick out your favorite Bible by the cover.
