More
This may be the result of iOS 5 cache cleaning. Please read on.
If the KJV Bible or others versions do not appear properly installed on your device and you are running iOS 5.0.1 or later its likely due to iOS 5 cache cleaning kicking in where iOS 5 attempts to reclaim space on your device by cleaning up certain directories. Unfortunately as a result the BLB database files can be wiped from the device.
PLEASE NOTE: This has been corrected as of revision 2.02.

10. Over a period of time why does my BLB app shut down or one of its features stop working?
What you may be experiencing i...
More
What you may be experiencing is an issue of memory allocations in the app. There is a potential for the app to use up its allocated memory over a period of time which then affects the app's ability to function properly.
All you need to do is
reset the app for it to work properly again. This is not the same as power cycling your device.
To reset the BLB app so that is starts up in a fresh new state please see FAQ "How do I reset the BLB app..."

15. In version 1.x what is the difference between "Local" and "Online" searching?
Searching scripture text local...
More
Searching scripture text locally, you are performing a search on your device. The search is based on your currently selected and installed Bible version.
Searching scripture text online, you are searching over the Internet. The search is based your current selected online Bible version you've chosen from the Downloadable/Online Bibles available (see the "Manage Bibles" preference).
16. What does the preference option "auto lock" do?
The "auto lock" preference opt...
More
The "auto lock" preference option tells your device to not sleep/lock when it times-out so that you can continue to read the Bible without disruption.
Default condition is "ON" which will allow your device to automatically lock or screen save in so many minutes.
Setting this preference option to "OFF" will prevent your device from automatically lock/screen saving based on your device "Auto-Lock" setting.
You must restart the app for the setting to take place.
17. When playing audio commentaries and my device goes to sleep it stops playing the commentary
There is preference option "Al...
More
There is preference option "Allow Auto-Lock Timeout" for that. By default this is ON. The option will prevent the BLB app from going to sleep/timeout when your device times out automatically because of its power saving mode when disabled (ie. OFF) thus allowing you to continue enjoying the audio commentary.
To disable this option;
* Preferences -> Other Settings
* Change Allow Auto-Lock Timeout to OFF
18. Using version 1.x what is the difference in a "Local Search" between "Exact" and "Close"?
Local search results will vary...
More
Local search results will vary depending on option chosen (exact or close).
The "close" option attempts to search for the text provided to determine if its within the context of other words.
The "exact" search attempts to look for the exact instance of the text you are searching on without any quotation marks (ie. comma's, semi-colons, periods, quotes).
In either case the search operation is performed against your currently selected and installed Bible version.
19. Why can't I download every Bible version available?
Some of the versions/translati...
More
Some of the versions/translations of the Bible used by the Blue Letter Bible app are under copyright restrictions, and used by permission of the copyright holder. These versions are not 'public domain' and as such can only be used in accordance with the license agreement with the various Bible publishers.
20. Why does the Concordance / Interlinear Table only display the KJV and NASB text?
We currently have Strongs data...
More
We currently have Strongs data for the KJV and NASB only. Hebrew Strongs data for the Old Testament is identical between these two versions, but the KJV and NASB follow slightly different Greek New Testament text traditions. Since the Textus Receptus is the basis for the KJV, NKJV, RVR, ASV, and RSV the KJV Strongs data is used in the table for these versions. Likewise, since the Nestle-Aland text is the basis for the NASB, NLT, NIV, ESV, DBY, HNV, and others, the NASB data is used in the table.
21. Why can I only bookmark by chapters and not by verses?
The app provides boookmarking ...
More
The app provides boookmarking by chapters rather than by verses to save space in the scrolling table. This also makes more efficient use of memory for the app to manage.
In order to quickly locate a passage, you can use the combination of your bookmarks of chapters and highlighting the verse.
22. Why does my BLB app suddenly shut down or stop working?
Devices with iOS 4/5 may exper...
More
Devices with iOS 4/5 may experience these issues if they have not reset the app and have many background apps suspended.
Since iOS 4/5 utilizes multi-tasking it suspends the BLB when you start another app. Double tapping on the home button reveals ALL currently suspended apps waiting to run again. You could potentially have many apps in a suspended state at any point in time and could be running into memory issues.
Reset BLB app or see FAQ 'How do I "reduce" suspended apps?'
23. Why am I getting update notices for Youngs Literal Translation (YNG)?
Recent changes to the Young's ...
More
Recent changes to the Young's Literal Translation abbreviated naming convention on our server may alert the app to update this translation. To correct the issue of continual update notices for to this translation do the following;
1) Goto app Preferences -> Manage Bibles
2) Delete the current Youngs Literal Translation
3) Download a new copy of the Youngs Literal Translation
This has been corrected for the next release of the app.
24. Why does version 2.x search not work against foreign language (Chinese/Russian) Bibles?
In version 2.x the search engi...
More
In version 2.x the search engine removes/filters any non-English characters from the input field as part of the process to prepare the data for the search query. Hence any foreign language characters would be purged from the input field and thus fail the search query.
This has been addressed in revision 2.02 of the BLB app.
25. Why is the app not locking to lansdcape mode when I set the preference?
The BLB app provides a prefere...
More
The BLB app provides a preference option (
Preference -> Other Setting -> Orientation Lock) to lock to a specific orientation so that when you come back to the app it will display in the last orientation you locked it to (ie. say in landscape).
As of iOS 5 unfortunately the orientation lock does not stay saved in the orientation you last locked it to.
This has been addressed in the next revision (2.03) of the BLB app.
26. Where is the clipboard for the BLB app?
The clipboard is just a place ...
More
The clipboard is just a place that holds your currently copied text. The BLB app its own note-taking tool and from here you can paste your verses into your own notes. You will find the Notes button right next to the History button on the bottom nav bar and looks like a pencil, writing. Once in the BLB's notepad, you may type your notes on a chapter or paste in text from your clipboard. To paste a note from the clipboard into the notes just tap and hold until you see the 'paste' option appear.
27. The top header/navigation bar has disappeared, how do I get it back?
You may have accidentally ente...
More
You may have accidentally entered into the app's full screen mode where the navigation and tool bars are hidden.
This is one of the finger gestures (tapping with two fingers in the Bible reading text) that the BLB app supports called "full screen" mode. This toggles between what we call full screen mode when reading the Bible text. When this occurs the navigation and tool bars become hidden.
To return to normal mode tap again with two fingers in the Bible reading text.

35. How do I play BLB audio commentaries on my iPad and iPhone?
The iPhone and iPad devices ca...
More
The iPhone and iPad devices can not play streamed audio commentaries directly from the Blue Letter Bible web site without a special app to interpret the content.
The reason for this has to due with the fact that the device Safari browser would require a special pluggin or open an app to play the stream.
However if you install the BLB iPhone and iPad apps both are capable of playing streamed audio commentaries through the app using the device native QuickTime player.

More
We do desire eventually to have a BLB app for other platforms but not immediately as we are working diligently on the BLB app for Apple devices.
Please know that its not because its not important to us because it is but rather because we have very limited resources and are focusing our technical staff on BLB web servers, content and on iPhone apps.
In the mean time we do have the Blue Letter Bible mobile site that displays nicely on mobile devices.
