Logos iPhone App
As I stated in an earlier post, I do not have an iPhone however I see that Logos Bible Software has come out with a very cool looking app for the iPhone and the iPod Touch. According to the Logos Bible Software site, the free app offers the following features:
- Free access to many of the Bibles featured at Bible.Logos.com (Click for preview)
- Tap-and-hold on a Bible word* to see the underlying Hebrew or Greek. (Click for preview)
- Text Comparison lets you quickly see a verse in multiple versions, with differences highlighted. (Click for preview)
- Linked cross references allow you to click footnotes to reveal the reference text. (Click for preview)
- Use Logos’ powerful search functionality to quickly find relevant verses in an instant. (Click for preview)
- Download and keep track of a custom reading plan, just for you. (Click for preview)
- Bible study anywhere. Now you have access to many of the books in your library wherever you go.
- Syncs with your desktop application. The app remembers your favorite resources, bookmarks, and settings across all platforms. Logos 4 even saves your last location in each of your books, so you can leave your desk and pick up your reading right where you left off using your iPhone or iPod Touch.
- Stay up to date on your daily readings with a Bible Reading Plan. As a Logos 4 user you can complete your reading on your computer or iPhone and both will keep your plan up to date.
- Learn more about a word by running a Bible Word Study. Get a report with links to dictionaries, lexicons, verses using the word, and view various translations of the Greek or Hebrew word.
- Like the desktop version of Logos Bible Software, the Passage Guide allows you to enter a verse and get a detailed report that includes relevant commentaries, cross references, literary typing, media resources, and interesting words.
- Learn more about the original language words behind the English translation. Tap and hold any word in your Bible and Logos Bible Software will look up the word and deliver the manuscript, lemma, and morphological information on the Greek or Hebrew word.
- Just feel like reading a book? Browse through your library and open one up. If you’ve opened the book before on your iPhone or computer, it will pick up right where you left off.
If you have an iPhone or an iPod Touch, this certainly sounds like a great app. We gave our middle daughter an iPod Touch for Christmas. Maybe I’ll see if she will let me download the app and test it out 
! I will not be holding my breath on that one!
The app is free and will run on the iPhone or the iPod Touch. It can be downloaded from the iPhone App Store.
