As reported earlier, Bishop and And Bible use the same module location on the one device. If you install on one it will be available on the other. I don’t know if a restart is needed by the other app.

On Un*x, they are all stored at ~/.sword by default.

In Him,

So, for example, if I have 3 front-end applications and want KJV in each of them I have to download it 3 times and store 3 copies.
