Certain notes and highlights not displaying anchors properly in the mobile app

Hello! I'm just getting started with the Logos app both on an iPad and on my Windows PC and have run into a problem.

I'm having an issue when I create a note or a highlight for verses, but the problem only occurs on the iPad and not on the PC. Under certain circumstances (explained below), the note and/or highlight will not show the verse(s) to which it is anchored when viewing the note or highlight in the Notes panel--again, only on the iPad. So, for example, let's say I create a note by highlighting a portion of a verse in the ESV and adding a note to it. When I view that note in the Notes panel on the iPad, it does display the note but simply shows the anchor as "ESV," without any Scripture reference indicated. Likewise, a highlighted portion of a verse in the KJV simply appears as "KJV" in the notes panel. Again, the text of the note does show, and if I tap on, e.g., "ESV" in the anchor, it does take me to the Bible verse and highlight in question. But what this means is that I have a bunch of highlights shown on the left side of the Notes panel with no Bible reference indicated, just the Bible version.

Interestingly, if I select a whole verse by simply tapping anywhere on the verse so that it auto-selects the entire verse, then the note/highlight is created properly; the anchor shows the verse and not the Bible version. If I select that same verse by manually dragging the selection handles, I still have the anchor problem.

This appears to be an issue only with the mobile app, however, because when I look at these same notes in the Windows desktop version, it DOES show the anchor as the Bible verse. Thus, the proper information is there, but it does not display properly on the iPad.

Also, if I create the original note and highlight on the PC, I still have the problem with the anchor not displaying correctly on the iPad and under the same circumstances. So, if I highlight one and only one entire verse on the PC by having it autoselect (i.e., by right-clicking on the verse rather than using the selection handles) it displays correctly on the iPad as well as the PC. If I highlight more than one verse, or just part of a verse, or even a single verse by dragging the selection handles, the anchor information displays correctly on the PC but not on the iPad; the iPad shows the anchor as simply the Bible version (e.g., ESV) without the corresponding verse reference(s).

Any idea what may be going on here? As I said, I'm really new to this software and just figuring it out, so maybe there is something I'm doing wrong. But it doesn't seem as though it should be doing this based on what I have described.

Thanks,

Alan
