Lately I've been trying to use Accordance on iOS (iPod touch an now my brand new iPad) and I've run into a hitch. I use a User Notes files to record my own translations of my preaching texts. When doing this on iOs, however, I run into problems

1). I can't move the edit window around, so sometimes it covers the verse I'm trying to translate.

2). Instant details won't work in the background while the edit window is open.

What would be ideal, in my opinion, would be able to use the bottom/side section that can be used for another text or tool to be usable for editing User Notes.

For now I'm stuck with writing out my translations on paper while using Accordance on iOS.

I agree especially with point 1 and it doesn't have to be translations. There have been many times when I needed to refer to the verse I am commenting on part way through writing the note.

Re #1. If you tap on the top of the screen where it displays the name of your user note file, it will expand and show the verse you're entering notes on.

Re #2. Perhaps this can be mitigated if Accordance allows editing in the view pane itself rather than opening up a separate edit window.
