Bible Reader 5.0 Videos

There are some minor changes since these videos were made, but here is an idea as to what BibleReader 5.0 will look like. We had these on a loop at the recent Evangelical Theological Society and Society for Biblical Literature Conferences in Atlanta, GA.

When will this be released on the app store?
Is this going to be a free upgrade?
Are you going to release a companion mac version on the mac app store?

Wow!!! Been using OliveTree for 10 years but this looks jaw-droppingly wonderful! Apart from the time-frame, my biggie is – Will it be coming to Android as well? I know Android is in catch up mode but I do hope it comes to Android –
Today??!!

I can’t speak to the iPhone, but I currently use the 4.0 iPad app, and I can’t really see that there is anything really “new” in version 5, at least from the glimpse on the video.

So tell us…will BR 5.0 give us any new/enhanced functionality over version 4? I notice the different “look,” but nothing beyond cosmetic changes.

  Yes, there are several changes for BR 5.0. One big change on the video is the Resource Guide (seen in the video about halfway through). You’ll notice it queries your library for any hits on the text in the main window. It will also pick out names, places, and topics.

  Their are many new features coming for BR5. This is a major upgrade part of which is a large interface redesign that we think people will love. The Resource Guide was mentioned and that’s a biggie we also have several other major enhancements to usability and some other features that will have to wait to be revealed at a later date.

Please tell us, is it a question of days or weeks?
For Christmas? In 2011?
Thanks for a so great job!

Will BR5 support syncing of highlights and bookmarks (via Evenote)?

  Yes, you still will be able to do that and, in addition (should you choose), you can also sync through your Olive Tree account.

    You said ‘still’ – I thought currently you can only sync notes, but not highlights?
    I have an Android phone, so I can’t sync anything, but with full sync/backup capability I’d buy an iPad just for BibleReader…

      Good catch! I should not have said “still.” BibleReader 5 will have the increased ability to sync notes, tags, and highlights through Olive Tree’s sync. Currently, you can only sync notes through Evernote and not highlights.

you guys are being super quiet on the release time frame….any hints? Also will this be a free or a paid upgrade. I’m also interested to know how this will sync with the desktop app you have coming out?

  Our big hint is, “Soon.” It will be a free upgrade that will come through the App Store like any other app update. The new features do include cross-platform syncing so whatever device you use, all your annotations will sync to the same account.

When will an update be released to support Android Gingerbread 2.3? I have the updated v. 5 on my iPod Touch and love it! Thanks for the awesome work. God bless and Merry Christmas!
