Simple Bible
Q. I can't download a Bible. Help!?
A. Check your internet connection first. It is best if you have a Wi-Fi connection, but if not, make sure you have a strong cellular signal. Also, look in the preferences on the Application Menu. There you can increase the download retries and timeouts both to their max. This could help in some cases with a slow connection.
Q. Why do I keep getting a TRANSLATION ERROR?
A. When the application downloads a Bible Translation, it is saved on the USB partition of your phone in a directory called "SimpleBible." If the files in this folder are removed or changed it will alter your translation and could cause it to not work. If you access your USB partition, it's best to leave the "Simple Bible" directory alone.
Q. Why does a search take so long?
A. The simple answer is this. Your device's CPU has to 'read' every verse looking for your search term. The more books/verses you have it 'read' from the longer it takes.
Q. Sometimes, when I search and I tap on a verse, it takes me to the wrong spot in the book. Why?
A. We have noticed that if you scroll down the list of search matches real fast and then tap too soon, it can send you to the wrong verse. While we don't know exactly how to fix this, we do have a work-around. Scroll slower. Or if you scroll fast and are way down the list wait a couple of seconds before clicking on a search Result.
Q. Are there any hidden features in Simple Bible I may not have noticed?
A. It's possible; here is a list of the most overlooked features:

- Turn your phone on its side while reading The Bible. Simple Bible works in Landscape mode.
- Tap your screen anywhere in The Bible Text to turn off the menus at the top & bottom of the screen. Tap the text again to bring the menus back.
- The ? icon will open a random verse in the current book.
- You can search in the current book, The Old or New Testament or the whole Bible.
- There are 4 different text sizes available. Look for "Preferences" under the application menu. You can open the application menu by tapping "Simple Bible" in the upper left hand of the application.

Q. Are there or will there be other translations available such as the NIV, NLT, or ESV?
A. Yes, in Simple Bible Pro. It will have access to many copyrighted translations through Laridian Electronic Publishing. In addition to new purchases, this includes any Bibles you've bought in the past through Laridian.
Q. Will you ever add more advanced features such as Highlighting or Notes?
A. Actually we plan to include these features and many more in our next application, Simple Bible Pro.
