It isn't necessarily as feature-complete as PocketSword was. There was recently a brief discussion of it missing some of the more advanced features on this list. But it suffices for all of the basic functionality you would need. There are other apps, but you would need to work with their developers to have them build for iOS. Very few of us in the SWORD ecosystem are both iOS/Apple users and developers so there is a noticeable gap in our coverage there.</div><div><br></div><div>--Greg</div><div> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg-5358074929568642139"><div lang="EN-ZA" style="overflow-wrap: break-word;"><div class="m_-5358074929568642139WordSection1">
