Hi,
I was wondering if Logos planned to release an iPad app update for the iOS 4.2 release due to come out next week. If so, would it include some major updates I imagine?
Any details that can be provided would be appreciated.
God Bless,

We don't have a release planned specifically for iOS 4.2. Since the Logos app is a universal app and already supports iOS 4.0, it supports multitasking on iOS 4.2 on iPad.
Thanks Dave. Appreciate the info and prompt reply. If I may ask is there an idea of when the next release may come out and what features would be added?
The timing of the release is discussed here: http://community.logos.com/forums/p/24487/193329.aspx#193329
Regarding features, as I understand it the main feature is the new display engine. As I understand it, this should be some significant improvements to offline use, though I suspect that much of the benefits will be behind the scenes. That is, the new display engine will allow Logos to develop new features in the future, though I haven't seen any mention in the forums that there'll be new features in the next version.
Has it been confirmed that v 1.5 will use the new display engine? I ask because I would have expected a change that significant to warrant a major version increment i.e. v. 2.0.
Putting http://community.logos.com/forums/p/12807/179058.aspx#179058 together with this http://community.logos.com/forums/p/24487/193329.aspx#193329 certainly gives the impression that 1.5 will feature the new engine. I suspect the lack of version number hike is that most the of the work is 'behind the scenes' work that will bring benefits soon, not immediately.
Mark is very insightful.
Version 1.5 is focused on improved offline support. It will use the new display engine for offline resources.

YAY!
I will second that YAY! I am looking forward to these coming changes.
Does that mean no highlighting and note taking? I really need highlighting and note taking!
I agree these changes are more than necessary and i am really excited to see them or not see them which is what "behind the scene" would mean.
