    This new upgrade is fantastic. I will be experimenting with it. 

    However, is there any way this can be turned on for newer iPhones? To be able to edit a sermon, or add an illustration while outside and away from my iPad would be extremely useful.

    From Daniel's post where he spoke about the introduction of this feature - https://community.logos.com/forums/t/199294.aspx: 

    A few things to note:

    • It mostly works offline, but the autocomplete for the Topics and Passages fields requirements an internet connection.
    • There's basic support for creating slides, but you can't select different slide backgrounds from the Media tool as you can on desktop and web.
    • This is iPad only for now. iPhone support would require a lot of rework to the UI. Android tablet support is blocked by a number of Draft.js bugs.

    So I can't see it coming soon.
