Thanks, Steve!

Question for you:  The Gospel App that I use DOES have include a citation index, but.... I am finding that YOUR index has MUCH more citations than the app.  Do you partner with those app companies, so they can include YOUR extensive index?  If not.. it would be great to have that access!

Just curious.

Thanks!

Doug

 A HIGHLIGHT function

Would it be possible to, in the near future, add the ability to
HIGHLIGHT (using different color options) the items in your database,
similar to different scripture apps?? Would be EXTREMELY helpful.
Thank you!

This is a tricky question because this sort of feature crosses over
into the LDS Gospel Library's functionality space. We want to be a
citation index, not an alternate version of Gospel Library. They're
working on making highlights sync with your LDS account, which would
be more powerful in the long run than just having highlights on the
device where you do the highlighting. However we publish historical
materials (1970 and earlier) that don't appear in Gospel Library
currently.
 
Since our web site doesn't have highlighting, this isn't a feature
we've ever talked about putting in the mobile app. When we meet
again, I'll talk with my partner about this.

Doug,

I think one of my former students is involved in the scripture app
you're using. He told me they were going to add a citation index as
well. The simple answer is that nobody has ever approached us about
using the index in their app. I'm not sure how we'd respond -- I
guess we'd have to think about it if they asked.
