I know the Android app has RTF in notes now. Will this be coming to iOS soon?

    My guess is no... And from your comment about Android, I would assume that that feature builds upon OS level features in Android... iOS doesn't have anything like that in their notes. Of course, I could be wrong and it could show up in beta tommorow. [:)]

    I am not sure that it is a limitation to ios. I can do rtf in Evernote not to mention the Apple apps like Pages.

    I didn't mean that I thought it was a limitation of iOS, but rather that I don't know if it is built into iOS. Until recently, Logos used the OS level editors for Windows & Mac. Currently, there is a new notes editor (in beta) which replaces the OS level editor. It may be that Logos is utilizing an OS level editor for Android that has features that the iOS level editor does not have.

    It's on the list and the dev team would like to do it soon, but there's no ETA.

    What about exporting RTF from logos to external app? I cannot copy and paste the gorgeous formatted text from a commentary in any other app. Is it possibile?

    We built our own rich text editor for Android. We tried to use the built in Android options, but they were more limited than the wide range of formatting that Logos rich text allows, so we ended up making our own editor for scratch. I know this is on the iOS todo list as well, but I don't know how high a priority it is.
