BUG: Eerdman's links work on desktop, but go to cover page on iPad

I tried to tap several EDB links on the iPad (specifically I tried "Lex Talionis" in Ex 4:23, "Bridegroom of Blood" in 4:24, and "Forced Labor" in 5:6) and they all open EDB, but open to the title page rather than the referenced article. These same links go to the correct article when clicked in Logos 4. Can someone else confirm this problem?

Can someone else confirm this problem?

I am in the beta program for iOS apps, and I don't know what the current "release" version is. I believe that we are currently on the same build (1.0.3). In any case, I am not having this problem on either Faithlife or Logos mobile app. When I click on the EDB link in Ex 4:23, I am taken to the correct location.

All three went to the correct location on my iPad on the FSB.

Hmm...interesting. OK, so I played with it some more:

The links work fine on my iPhone on the FSB app
Tried again on iPad...still went to title page
- Removed EDB for offline use...tested...links went to correct article
- Redownloaded EDB for offline use...tested...the problem returned
Downloaded EDB for offline use on iPhone...tested...problem shows up there as well

Do either of you have EDB downloaded for offline use? It seems that may be the cause of the issue.

Further info: After discovering this, I went and found a link to a different book (specifically I tried the link to "Straw" in the ISBE under Ex 5:7)...ISBE is also downloaded for offline use and exhibits the same behavior. So it seems that the bug is that when a book is downloaded for offline use, the links go to the title page instead of the appropriate article.

Interesting. I don't have it downloaded. If I remember, I will check this out later.

*bump*

Did you (or anyone else) get a chance to try to confirm this issue with offline books?

Thanks for reminding me. I can confirm this behavior. When the EDB is downloaded, the FSB links take you to the EDB Title page. When the EDB is not downloaded, the FSB links take you to the appropriate article in the EDB.

[Y] Thanks for confirming Alabama.
