In a previous post I blogged about my experience using the prototype Accordance iPhone app to read along during the Sunday morning sermon. I expected a fair bit of response to that post, but what I didn’t expect was how much apparent angst it would create regarding the iPad. Apparently, because I focused on my use of the app on the iPhone, some people worried that our initial iOS app would not be available for the iPad.
Not to worry. Just because I describe testing the app on my iPhone, that doesn’t mean we’re not also planning to support the iPad. Alas, I’m one of those pitiful souls who does not yet own an iPad. 🙁
So have no fear. Our initial release of the app will not be restricted to the iPhone, but will work beautifully on the iPad as well. That means that the iPad app will be adapted to the iPad’s larger screen and will not merely be an iPhone app scaled to fit. Other than that, the two apps will be identical. Beyond that initial release, we have some very exciting plans for the iPad as a unique platform, but I’m not at liberty to talk about those yet. What I can tell you is that whether you use an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you can look forward to being able to access your Accordance modules on your device of choice.
