Notes allow you to capture thoughts, sermon insights, study questions, and other observations while reading the Bible or a book. You can create notes linked to a verse/passage or selected text, or create standalone notes that aren't associated with a Bible or book.
Types of Notes
There are two ways to create notes while reading:
- Verse-Based Notes: These notes are linked to a verse and appear across all downloaded Bible translations.
- Word-Based Notes: These notes are linked to selected text and remain associated with the specific Bible or book where they were created.
Creating Notes
The most common way to create a note is while reading.
Select a verse number and then select 'Add Note' from the pop-up menu. You can also select text and right click on the highlighted text to get the pop-up menu. Tap 'Add Note'.
You can also create a standalone note that isn't associated with a Bible or book from the Menu or the Study Center.
From the Menu:
Select the Menu icon.
Select Notes.
Select the '+' icon and then select Add Note.
From the Study Center:
Select Open Study Center.
Select Notes.
Select the '+' icon and then select Add Note.
Editing Notes
You can open a note from the Notes list in the Menu or by selecting the note icon next to the Bible text where the note was created.
Once a note is open, you can:
- Title - Select the title to rename the note.
- Note Body - Select anywhere in the note to begin editing. Bible references entered in the note are automatically linked. If you'd like additional formatting options such as bold, italics, underline, and more, see our Enhanced Notes feature.
- Tags - Select + Add Tag to create a tag, or select an existing tag to view other annotations with the same tag.
