Steal some ideas? :)

I'm not sure this would work in Accordance. Accordance is loaded with features, hasn't luxury of large empty spaces...

Dear new kid on the block,

 

Welcome to the business!  ;)

That said, what most people may not know is that licensing can be an involved and, well, expensive process. Most translations have different publishers with different royalty and licensing requirements in place.

You speak as one who's been around the block a few times :)

 

It wasn't what the app can do that impressed me, but the look of it. How awesome would it be for Accordance to buy a company/app like this and integrate some of the aesthetic beauty into Accordance Mobile. It's not just about the functionality; it's also about the user interface. When I want to do Bible research on my wife's iPad, I turn to Accordance. But when I just want to read the Bible on the iPad, I turn to the ESV app or the Logos app. Beauty and aesthetics do matter.

 

Thanks for reading, Rick et al.

I understood what you were getting at. My comment wasn't meant to pit functionality vs. design, I was just amused at that comment. Thanks for pointing to their app. :)

or have two apps - accordance STUDY app AND accordance WORK app - the current one that's highly functional, and one that's all about the design?

Rick, I actually thought of you when I read that part on their Website, before you posted here!

The preferences in Accordance Mobile are so extensive, You and we can change the surface till it looks like near the other App. In colors, fonts, background etc. except the space between the characters and lines.

 

You can customize Accordance how ever you want.

Yes, we can customize Accordance Mobile, but not to that extent. We cannot hide the top toolbar completely, we cannot change left margin for the Bible text, we cannot center book titles, add dividing lines, etc. The only way how to make this possible IMHO is to add custom "themes" AKA "workspaces", where I can specify each setting and load all of them at once. Otherwise I'll never do this just to read some Bible text in zen style.

P.S. I wish I could replace interface link/title/icon blue color with burgundy or brown or grey color... (I'm not fond of blue color.)
