Ratings and reviews

Wonderful app- God bless you! I would love for you to add the ability to highlight verses (in light/ pastel colors for readability). A bonus would be the ability to save lists of verses according to topic.

"A very good app for reading and studying the Orthodox Study Bible. Adding audio would make it even better. We can read some portion offline not all. Currently, the footnotes are not clickable—please fix this."

Edit: developer implemented the one feature I missed most (tap verse to see footnotes). Now and easy 5-star rating! Good value for money. Tapping references to other verses in the footnotes shows the referenced verse as a pop-up. Very powerful!
