Word Study from English Translations
I'm almost certain I used to be able to do a word study on the original languages from the NASB and NKJV by highlighting an English word and pressing "info." Did this change?

This changed some time back for me. I just realized I can still do this w ESV. Why not NKJ? Is there a setting I need to change. ...this was probably the top feature for me...would like to see it back.

This has been a problem for me as well for about 2 months. I primarily use the ESV and can confirm it does not work on my Android tablet (Bible app version 5.6.2).
EDIT: I tested it again and what I should have stated was that it didn't work the way it used to work. It used to display the lemma and parsing info in the popup with a link to "Bible Word Study" for more detail. Now that info is gone and we have the option for a simple search on the word or click a "Bible Word Study" link which will then give a simple definition and the Hebrew/Greek word usage "wheels." No parsing info.

Here's what I'm trying -Reproduction steps:
1. Sign into the Bible 5.6.2 app and make sure the Android 6.x device is online.
2. Open the NASB 1995 to Gen 1:2 and long press on the word "surface".
3. Tap the info button in the context menu.
Result:
Please see screenshot -

This is after long-press on word to highlight and tapping "info."
Edit: I did tap on "surface" in Genesis 1.2 and it brought up the information that I'm accustomed to (the same info on your screenshot).

Just to show you it is not an OT/NT or HEB/GRK thing.
Edit: I'm updated to 5.6.2, as well.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the Bible app. That seems to have worked.

Gregory,
This is puzzling. I've tried both of the words you've mentioned and they work for me, please see the results below. Are you sure you have a solid network connection? All of these results are served up from the web and without an internet connection they won't appear.
Please use "Report a Problem" under the Help menu to send us your application logs, and in the email please reference this thread URL and mentioned my name so it gets forwarded to me.

Ah, okay. I'm glad it's working now.
If an issue like this happens again we would be grateful to examine the application logs before you reinstall the app, since the application logs get deleted with a reinstall.

Maybe Wondercheck and Ken Hicks will send you theirs.

My screens with the ESV look/work the same as Gregory Circle before he reinstalled. I will try that but dread the notion of re-downloading all of those books. :-)

First, please just remove the ESV and download it again to see if the problem gets resolved. We don't recommend downloading every book to your device for this very reason - should an app problem occur that only a reinstall will fix, it might take days to download everything again.
