Good stuff. Now impatiently waiting for the iTunes servers to update so I can grab it.
Oh Happy Day!
Yay!
How do you view two resources at once? I am not seeing any way to accomplish this.
Down the bottom right of the screen there is a small arrow. Click it and it will split the screen. Then touch the top or bottom screen to change resource. You can also customise how much of either resource you see by dragging the arrows on the right that sit between resources.
Very cool!
Great update
Yay! Cannot wait to download it when I get home
Split Screen: AWESOME! Low light support! Fantastic! These are the major updates I've been waiting for. Way to go Team Logos!
Great, I got the split screen to work but how do you get the syncing to work?
Never mind, I figured it out.
Nice additions.
Very nice!
This is a great addition. Thanks for all your work!
This is all great stuff, Dave. Thanks so much!

This is a great release. Congratulations! The split window is elegantly and simply implemented, and the header and footer are great additions. The background colors are wonderful too.
Some suggestions for consideration:
1) Add the option to choose linking mode between the two windows: a) Top/Left window leading Bottom/Right window; or b) Either window leading the other (as it is now); or c) No linking between the two windows.
2) Add an on-screen button (e.g. somewhere on the split line between the two windows) to toggle between the above 3 options.
3) Make "Settings" easier to access: either a) Make "More" a pop-up menu instead of a full-screen menu; or better yet b) Make the last button "Settings" instead of "More" -- "About" can be an option within "Settings".
Thanks!

Yes, this adds a LOT to the usability of the APP for me. Awesome.
Couple quick requests (I know, I know, we are never satisfied [:D])
Is it possible for the split views to host the other display items (library, text compare, passage guide, etc.)? The reason for this is that it is nice to be able to keep the text up and continue reading while other information is retrieved from the servers. It doesn't have to work for pop ups but on press of the tab it would be nice if that content loaded into the active screen from the split view.
Can we get the color settings to be system wide? This may be difficult if some of the content is actually rendered server side vs. just having the data crunched but it would make the app a whole lot more cohesive.
Again, nice work and I understand that everyone has their favorite list of features. The split screen was number one for me after local resources so thanks again!
I have been using 1.6.x now for several days, and in fact in both of the past two Sunday's for bible class. I had the ESV and The Greek up at the same time and they were linked... that was very nice, and was big help, in fact, once I downloaded the Greek to my phone there was 0 lag as I went from page to page. I really wanted to say something to all of you, but that was not an option, but I am sure glad that everyone has this now! All That I can say is Well Done Dave and Team. Thank you.
Thanks for all the hard work!! this update was well worth the wait.
The split screen just increased the value of this app tenfold and caused me to increase my rating from three stars to four. Thank you.
Very nice update to the ipod touch when wireless. Do some of these functions like the double screen work in offline mode?? We had a snow storm today, so I won't know until I leave my home tomorrow to check it out.
Pertaining to offline status, which is what I have outside of home (when not wrireless). Can anyone update me as to exactly what functions work when in offline mode? Seems to me it 's a much more manual operation then, having to flip to one book, but not being able to flip back and forth to multiple books. Obviously, th passage, text comparison guide etc don't work.
As for you techies, are there some things that work well when in offline mode?
Next questions. I have most of my logos 4 books in my touch now. The ones I can't get to add to offline mode are the ones that say Logos research. They won't load over to offline mode, even though the button says they will, I've tried several times.
Thansk for the help, Kayte
Split screen does work offline as long as your books are downloaded for offline use.
This is great! Thank you!
I have however also got 'split screens' in the Passage Guide and Text Comparison reports.
Don't think this is supposed to happen.

Great app! [:D]
I got the split screen. How do I change it back to single screen? [:S]
Alan, I just drag the pane divider to the right to get one again. Not sure if there's a cooler way but that works.
Oh so nice! Keep up the great work folks! [:D] May His Shalom be upon you all.
Kaye,
I can drag the pane divider over to the right or left but not enough to make the secondary screen totally disappear. I'm not exactly sure how I got it up but haven't been able to totally erase it as of yet. I am at work on lunch confident I will eventually get it but not yet.
Snowy blessings from Maine,

I took my phone out of its Otter Box and was able to get the divider in the lower corner. I am guessing that it is always there now?? Anyway, this update is by far the best one yet, until the next one anyway.
Still snowing,
I do have a small glitch that you might be able to assist with. I have one of the large packages and have the ASV hidden. That means it is not available to my phone. Now every time I open the app on my iPhone I get an indication that there is 1 resource to update. It shows the ASV but then I get a blue pop-up that says unable to download ASV. It just keeps coming back. Is there any other way to stop this than to un-hide ASV on the laptop version?

For now the only way to keep ASV from trying to update is to unhide it. We'll try to get that fixed in the near future.
Fantastic update. I can finally open a Bible and a commentary at the same time! Thank-you for all your hard work.
This is a great update. Well done to Dave and the team.
I am sure this is on you radar, but it would be nice when a commentary is selected from the passage guide for it to open in the secondary window and not the primary window.
It's looking great.
Love the update - but have a question about updates in general - why is it that whenever there's an update, i lose the books i marked for offline reading (ie i have to re-download them again)? is this normal? thanks.
Using iTunes (on iMac) to upgrade iPad application, update from 1.5.2 to 1.6.0 kept offline Logos resources - did not need to sign out and sign in.
Personally still unable to offline 1000 Bible Images - downloads about half hour - then Logos app disappears from screen.
Keep Smiling [:)]

This is not normal. Do you update the app via the App Store on the device or through iTunes?
Great ujpdate! Thanks.
Would love to see ability to zoom, preferably by "pinching" or spreading fingers, just as most iPad / iPhone apps do. Maps and other graphics and pictures would be greatly improved if it was simple to zoom in and out.
I would like to know how can I close one of the books in a split screen view?
BTW, I love how we are able to vary the sizse of each book in the split screen view.
Wonder about dragging split screen marker to each of screen ? (adjust split so one book disappears)
i update via the app store. what do you think?
This is a great update! Thanks Logos iOS team!
Jerry - I have the same issue as you, I always have to redownload my offline books. I update through the app store via iTunes.
Amen!

Love the split screen. Thanks so much! I'd love to see a "forward" button. There's a "backward" button, but I think this app really also needs a "forward" button, too.
Love the split screen. Really makes this app sing.
