Bible Word Study completely broken on iOS

i cannot get BWS to work on the latest iOS release.

1. Long press on a word in Nestle Aland 26 Interlinear, and an empty window pops up with Search and Study at the bottom. The app never populates this window. Pressing Study brings up an empty BWS tab with three unfilled sections. 

If I long press on a word in the NIV84, the pop up with Lookup, Search and Study does populate correctly, but the BWS appears blank as per the screenshot.

This is a real showstopper ... is there a fix on the way?

Thanks

Richard

    I can’t reproduce either of these (with NA27, I don’t have 26)

    Are you online or offline when trying this?

    I happened to pick a word which seems to be causing problems, and it does so with 100% consistency.

    It's in 1 Cor 15:34 "Come back to your senses" ... long press on "senses" and the popup does translate the Greek OK, but the BWS tab comes up as shown in the screenshot.

    Maybe where the Greek lemma is translated into a multi-word English gloss?

    Other words I've tried in the surrounding passage seem OK, so something is not being passed to the BWS correctly here.

    Also, it's the NA27 I realise, not NA26 as in my OP.

    Thanks

    I've tried that same word - from NIV and NA27 - and it works fine.

    Do you have the resources downloaded?

    If so, might be worth removing them and trying with the resources in the cloud. If that works ok, try downloading them again
