eBible Voice Edition for Android

by colin on March 18, 2012

eBible introduces the world’s first voice navigated Bible.

Yeah. You read it right. Voice navigation. As in, say “John 3:16″ and the app will bring you there and read it to you.

Search for ‘eBible Voice Edition’ at Google Play.
Or click here if you’re on your Android phone.

This is a limited version of the actual, full eBible Android app. It won’t have notes, highlights or reading plans yet, but they’re coming very soon.

We invite you to try it out, let us know your thoughts, and help us fine-tune it before we announce to the general public.

Upgrade Your iPhone/iPad eBible App

by colin on March 2, 2012

To our iPhone/iPad users,

Many of you experienced significant crash problems with our previous release (1.2). We apologize deeply for this huge inconvenience and understand how frustrating it was to not access your notes/highlights on your device.  A bug fix was submitted to Apple last week. They finally approved it a few hours ago.

Please go ahead and upgrade your eBible app to the latest version (1.2.1) via the App Store. Again, we’re so sorry about this and thank you so much for your patience.

On a side note, iPad users can now use eBible with LANDSCAPE mode. You can read two pages at a time, simulating a better book-reading experience given the iPad’s larger screen. We hope you’ll enjoy this latest upgrade and look forward to your feedback. Thanks.

iPhone/iPad App Login Crashes

by colin on February 24, 2012

Folks,

We’re experiencing a bug with logins and server connectivity for the ebible iPhone and iPad apps. A bug fix has been submitted to the Apple App store. Unfortunately Apple takes a few days to approve and release the new app version. In the meantime, if you’re experiencing  start-up issues, the following steps may alleviate your problem:

1. Remove the eBible app from your iPhone/iPad.

2. Re-install from the App store.

3. Start up the new app.

You may experience a freeze during the personalization process. If you do, double click on the iPhone/iPad home button (at the bottom of your iPhone/iPad). This brings up the task bar at the bottom showing various apps that are currently running. Tap and hold the eBible icon. You’ll see the (-) sign at the top left side of the icon. Tap it to remove the eBible app from memory.

4. Re-start the eBible app again.

We’re extremely sorry for this inconvenience. We’ll send another announcement out as soon as Apple approves the new version. Thank you for your patience and support.

The eBible team.

The City is a division of ACS Technologies, the church management software company serving nearly 50,000 churches. Read ACS’ blog on us here.

However, if you want to see more examples of our Embeddable Bible at work, here are 2 great examples:
