What is going on with Copy/Paste on Logos mobile devices

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When I use copy/paste it used to work like this:

1 Peter 4:2 (ESV)
so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God.

Nice and clean. Right now when I try to copy/paste to Logos note file, I get this:

Bible verse and no Bible reference, and it copies footnotes.

If I paste the same verse outside of Logos note file, like MS Word, I get this:

If I copy the first verse of the chapter, I get Bible reference, verse, but also Capitalized chapter number and section title. Verse 2, looks more normal.

What is going on? Can I get consistent format?

@Wild Eagle We are working on improving the functionality. In the meantime, you might want to go to Settings within our app and disable Citations. Doing this should add the Bible reference when you copy to a note file.

The issues posted above are with disabled citations. If I enable citations, it looks like this:

@Wild Eagle When the version 40 update is released, there will be a new setting allowing for copied BIble text to include the Bible version and verse(s). We hope this will be more to your liking.

Thank you @Joe McCune (Faithlife)

Ok, cool. I had the same question. We have an ETA yet?

Where can we find an example of each citation style on mobile? All I want it something like this:

John 14:22–25 (NKJV)
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.
24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.
25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you.

@Darren Swartzendruber You can get a similar style by going to Settings > Citations and selecting "Use short format for Bibles".

The mobile citation style now defaults to placing the Bible reference at the end of the passage, not at the beginning. This is the format most widely regarded as correct.
