Scripture Notes

So I have been using the Scripture Notes app on my computer for a few months and have been amazed at how it has opened up and revolutionized my scripture study. Recently I went on a trip where I did not have room to bring my laptop computer, and with great resignation I turned to the iPhone version of the app. I ended up very pleased with the results! It is not quite as nice as working with the app on the computer, where you can spread things out better and work more easily with multiple panes open and searches and things like that, but it is more than adequate considering the lack of screen space available on a phone. It worked out much better than I had hoped! I did not feel at all deprived in my scripture study. I just had to be willing to deal with one pane at a time, but it was much less of an issue than I had feared it would be, especially temporarily. I think my being already familiar with the app in the full version was helpful. That being said, I echo the hopes of those who have asked for an iPad version. I have an iPad with a computer keyboard that is easier for me to bring with me in my frequent travels than the laptop, but I have been disappointed in trying to run the full internet version of the app on the iPad. It just doesn’t work as well with the iPad as it does on a computer, and the iPhone version of the app does not transfer well into the iPad either. There just needs to be something in between for the iPad. I am looking forward to the further developments that are in the works!

This app has forced me to do a better job learning about other online study tools such as Bible Hub. There is still a lot I have to learn in order to take full advantage of the features of this program, but I think it will turn out to be very helpful in the long run. I understand that Daniel, the AI assistant, is still in beta, but I’m curious as to when it will be available directly on the downloaded apps. I’m very excited about the AI aspect of the program and have already used it several times. I think the interface is a little wonky and takes some getting used to, but overall it’s a very useful study tool, and worth the price of admission.

I do not use a personal computer. I work entirely of my phone. This app is not for anyone like me. As a phone only access so it is not very useful. I find the LDS Church so much more intuitive and ready to navigate bookmark and add notes. Since this app does not add notes to my primary reading app it does not do me much good because hoping back and forth is a hassle. I hope it becomes more user friendly on the mobile side and it would bee great if it could someday export now to the churches app. Also, it is not cool that it demands credit card information before you can try it at the free level. Also it charged me immediately when I decided to surrender that info and try it out. No response from Scripture Notes when I inquired back Abbott the immediate charge and why it did not give me a trial period. It appears my trial started when I started seeing it up so when I actual have my credit card info I was past the free trial so I just got charged immediately. Very disappointing. It looks like it would be pretty nice of I had a computer, but definitely not worth it for mobile only use. I regret my trial.
