I use Verbum daily. Make sure you've purchased one of the Verbum Libraries - Bibles you'll use, a good commentary or seven, and Church docs. The "notes" feature in mobile now more closely resembles the desktop version - which is a huge win. Being able to share notes with others is one of my favorite abilities. Update: the mobile version continues to converge with the desktop, allowing for easier searching and reference.

Great app. But the only problem I see, is that the downloaded books are saved in the cache folder within the app, so if I use the cleaning app of my phone, it deletes important files Verbum needs in order to work, so it renders it useless until you reinstall it. (If you add an option where to save your downloaded books) 5 stars if you fix this!

Updated 1 star for crash fix. Thank you. Notes still buggy. Change Highlight Style throws an "Error" which then makes it impossible to use Change Highlight or Additional Styles as menu won't even pop up. You can (usually) change to a style already in most recent line up. Sometimes resolves on its own; usually not. Sometimes you can force a fix by changing to a most recent style, deleting that style again and hoping finally the Additional Styles will pop up.
