Stuart Robertson Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I, too, would dearly love to see page-based turning (whether horizontally or vertically) as an option in the next release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffCheadle Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I noticed that when the latest iOS update came out that the screen that came up introducing new features was not a long scroll down but was paginated, as requested here many times. Please implement this feature as an option. Here is the rationale in the event it is necessary: http://ignorethecode.net/blog/2012/11/01/pagination/ #loveaccordancebutgettingimpatient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I noticed that when the latest iOS update came out that the screen that came up introducing new features was not a long scroll down but was paginated, as requested here many times. Please implement this feature as an option. Here is the rationale in the event it is necessary: http://ignorethecode.net/blog/2012/11/01/pagination/ #loveaccordancebutgettingimpatient The rationale is not necessary, and thanks for your continued patience. Even though the new tutorial screens are navigated by swipe, they are not at all similar to the work required to implement 'pagination' in text views. My understanding is that this will not be difficult to implement; I'm just pointing out that there is no corollary to the tutorial screens and pagination. That said, keep in mind this was a 'dot' release; intended only to fix bugs and ensure compatibility with the upcoming release of iOS 7.1. We did not introduce any new features. Pagination is still on the list, but right now arbitrary text selection is our top priority, which is in active development. Thanks for the feedback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Bennett Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Hope is not lost. If anyone wants this more than you, it's me. We just have other items higher in priority. As I've said before, the next major release will focus on arbitrary text selection which is absolutely key, and opens up the ability to address other heavily requested enhancements or features. Page turning will likely come after that. Thanks again for your patience and support. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serpentium Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I agree that on ARBITRARY SELECTION vs PAGE TURNING the more important one is selection. Can you tell us some near-future revelation...pls? Just to dream... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve King Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Yes arbitrary selection will be an eagerly anticipated enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukfraser Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 If you do include page turning, are you considering making it compatible with an air turn so we can use our hands to be expressive and turn the pages with our feet? ;o) http://airturn.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markgreaves Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Any movement on this since May? I have now invested heavily into the Accordance software to help me through my theology degree, I would love this option in the iOS app. Just like it is implemented in the iBooks app. Keep up the great work though guys.

There's been a lot of "movement" in iOS development, but not with page swiping. In addition to the 2.0 major features (text selection among them), there's been a lot of working going into ensuring the new v. 11 user notes (*.amynotes) are both readable and able to be synced. Thanks for the encouragement and feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Pyles Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I look forward to this when it comes; thanks for always being quick to let us know, Rick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. Conrad Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Idea for paging: perhaps it would be easier in the interim to implement a paging that is similar to the spacebar and SHIFT-spacebar method in the desktop app. Something like a double-tap on a particular zone to move to the next 'screen' of text. (example of zones for the double-tap: bottom right zone for down / bottom left for up.) My 0.02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Knapp Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 When page turning gets implemented it will be the standard iOS gesture and animation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyduncan Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Scott in Dec 2012 you posted "Page turning did not make it into the next version (1.6) but is still planned for a future release." - Scott Knapp, 13 December 2012 - 02:47 PM.

tim.ministry Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I saw that this request is a long-awaited desire from many Accordance iOS users. I am also looking forward to see very soon this future for reading the Bible on my iPad. Please make this future a reality in your next iOS update!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffCheadle Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 November 4, 2011: "It's on the future features list and (slowly) moving up in priority with every request. But it won't be in the next release." Have been waiting for over four years now. Don't feel like this request is being taken seriously. I love Accordance but don't get why this keeps getting put off.

Helen Brown Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Jeff, our iOS development team has undergone some changes and many challenges. It's a tall task to keep the mobile app compatible with an ever-changing system, and a constantly developing Accordance. In addition, not all our users are in favor of allowing page turning. Many are asking for other features to be added first. The team does its best to prioritize, but we appreciate your patience if the feature on the top of your list isn't the next one to be added.

Paul Meiklejohn Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I would love to see this option added... I just find it more natural to read a page and then jump to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyduncan Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Considering this thread was started literally 5 years ago in 2011 I think it's fair to say it's not worth holding breathe on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ιακοβ Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Since people are voting I put in a -1I understand some people might like to emulate a traditional book style of reading, however scrolling for reading is probably the number one reason which drove my switch from Logos to Accordance!

R. Mansfield Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I've always said I'd like scrolling vs page turning to be a user option. Of course, I'm no developer, so I don't know how difficult it would be to implement as an option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
