Help with word look up

I've been searching for a way to tap a Hebrew word and get a quick English gloss, especially offline.

I thought the "info" used to offer a gloss in addition to the morph, but now it doesn't seem to be included on many words. Also, this feature is available only online.

I'd love to get a quick gloss with a tap or double-tap, instead of having to choose from a menu. Or, I'd be happy to tap a word and it'll shoot straight to the BDB entry (like I can do on my computer). However, I've only found two ways to get to the BDB entry: "Bible Word Study," which is much more information than I want (and takes more time), or manually going through BDB.

If I download a Hebrew Bible (say, AFAT) and BDB, is there a way to get a quick English gloss of a Hebrew word online and offline?

Thanks!

    This feature currently requires online access because the results are performed on Logos' servers.

    Thank you very much! This is very helpful.

    Why doesn't the "info" option display an English gloss for every word? I thought it used to do this, but now it's not very often.
