Nic Carter did some wonderful things, and blessed us all with some fine Bible study software for a while. I trust he is doing well with our Father in Heaven. I have made 3 attempts at resurrecting PocketSword. The first two were foiled not just by the learning curve of taking over someone else's code, but by some serious blocks in the Apple App Store. Because of iCloud entitlements of the app, we could not update the software without Nic's action, which he didn't have the time & energy to take. While we could fork & rename the project theoretically, the third attempt with a new volunteer will be a restart using fresh, modern multi-platform tools. We are still in the brain storming, design, and study stage. Lots of ideas are on the table. The first question is whether or not we really need a new and/or improved FLOSS Bible study app. I think that the answer is "Yes". In the mean time, it pains me to say it, but please remove PocketSword from the Crosswire software page. For now, I heartily recommend Bishop. And I hope to have something more cheerful to announce later. On 12/5/25 05:50, Chad Uretsky wrote: > > I am very saddened to hear that. May God bless his family.

Bishop 1.7.0; iOS/iPadOS 26.1. I was going to say, any Bible, any search. However, I now find that KJV (alone) gets successful searches. No joy out of BSB, ESV, NASB, or any of my own (ThML) Bible modules. I hadn't noticed success with KJV until now because I hardly ever touch it. In any event, for any Bible except KJV, type a word or three, hit "go."

We're at 1.7.902 (i.e. 1.8 RC2) which I am sure uses an updated Cordova libsword plugin which likely fixes the search bug you're seeing. Anyone running Android still seeing search troubles? I need to fire up a Mac and update the build tools to try to release the same version as we have on Android. On December 6, 2025 11:34:30 AM MST, Karl Kleinpaste wrote: >On 12/6/25 10:34 AM, Troy A.

Version: 2.2 ## What's new: Acts, Jas, Gal, 1Thess, 2Thess, 1Cor, 2Cor, Rom proofread. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to this release. We wish you enjoyable reading, The Module Team P.S.: This email is sent automatically on upload of a new/updated module From karl at kleinpaste.org Wed Dec 17 13:16:32 2025 From: karl at kleinpaste.org (Karl Kleinpaste) Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2025 13:16:32 -0500 Subject: [sword-devel] bishop needs Message-ID: <896be1e6-0348-4ac2-a12b-8520bdbecf4e@kleinpaste.org> Since my future with Apple devices can't continue to include PocketSword, I've been using Bishop. Ignoring the search problem that Troy says should be fixed soon, there are a bunch of things about it that are missing, not specifically PS-like, but more generally in line with ready accessibility that I would like to see. It should be possible to look at 1 Bible without anything else. At the moment, I have to look at a set of 3 Bibles, or 1 Bible + original language dictionary (how does Bishop choose which one I see?), or 1 Bible + 1 commentary. Really, sometimes I want to see just?the text. In fact sometimes I want to see?just?the commentary, without a Bible. (PS does/did this.) This is to say, sometimes I'm just reading, not doing deep comparative/semantic/historical/linguistic analysis. Bishop should handle images, period. I have a number of modules that use images in various ways, and they all appear as broken pictures. The engine generates proper references in XHTML filters from "" for both OSIS and ThML; I can only hope that whatever filters are used by Bishop can cope as well. "sword://Module/Key" URLs are not followed. It's really easy to implement and it ought to be supported. Cross-refs (e.g. commentary to Bible, or footnote to elsewhere in a Bible, or one definition to another in a dictionary) are very common. StrongsReal{Greek,Hebrew} use cross-refs everywhere, because is derived from . It would be nice if texts' footnote numbering/lettering were displayed in text. That makes it easy to figure which reference is to be found in the parallel commentary, when that is in use. I want to be able to open any dictionary -- any at all, including Strong's dictionaries. When I select Dictionaries, Bishop shows me several dictionary choices that I've installed, but not StrongsReal{Greek,Hebrew} that I use 90% of the time. Just a few thoughts for now.

I agree about the "just read one Bible".? I've always tried to keep Bishop a simple reader, with deep features if you want them. I use it each morning when I read the Bible. You can select 1, 2, or 3 Bibles for the "Bibles" view.? If you only want 1 Bible, you can just set the other two to nothing.? I usually keep NASB, WLC, NA28.? Bishop is smart enough to not include a Bible if no verses are available, so this setup will show English and Greek if you are reading New Testament, or English and Hebrew if you are reading Old Testament.? But you can simply select 1 Bible and set the others to nothing. Are you asking for a quick toggle between 1 or multiple Bibles? I can imagine that being useful.? What kind of UI can you think of to make that work?? Maybe a 4th 'View' mode: split 'Bible' into 'Bible Single', 'Bible Parallel'?

Recently I started working on an iOS build for Ezra Bible App. This was on my to-do list for a while, but adding another platform is a slightly scary thing, that's why I put it off for a while. The app has already been working with the Android build for a few years now and since the framework (Cordova) works with iOS I gave it a try now. I have a working build (yay!) and I am fixing various glitches now. I learned that Apple has something called TestFlight ... a staging area that can be used before pushing an app to the app store. Who would be interested in beta testing? Please let me know. Best regards, Tobias PS: I did not inform about the latest release 1.18.0 of Ezra. It happened recently and is available here. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
