Mantis Bible Study 4.9.13 Released
Analyze Verse now supports landscape.
Searching for words with certain characters no longer crashes.
Text in a note following an ampersand will no longer truncate.

Analyze Verse Returns (Version 4.9.11 Released)
As you may already know, the Analyze Verse feature was incompatible with iOS 5, and this feature was removed from the first releases of Mantis for iOS 5. Today, Apple released our 4.9.11 update, which brings Analyze Verse back. Thanks for your patience!
Version 4.9.10 Released
Apple has approved version 4.9.10 of the free version of Mantis Bible Study, which fixes the following bugs under iOS 5:
Map display
Tap-and-hold Find
Tap-and-hold Define / Dict
NOTICE: iOS 5 contains it's own "Define" option that links to a built-in dictionary. To look up the selected word in any installed Bible Dictionaries you've purchased from Mantis, tap the right arrow icon and select the new "Dict" option.
|

Tap-and-hold, select a word, then select "Define" to view the built-in iOS 5 dictionary entry for that word.
|

Here is the built-in iOS 5 dictionary entry for "Jerusalem".
|
|

Tap-and-hold, tap the right arrow, then select "Dict" to view the selected word in any installed Bible Dictinoaries (sold separately.)
|

Here we see links for the "Jerusalem" entry in several installed Bible Dictionaries. Dictionaries that don't have an entry for the selected word are grayed out.
|
Analyze Verse will be fixed and operational again in 4.9.11, currently undergoing final testing. We expect to send this version to Apple for approval within the next few days. ** UPDATE ** We have already sent 4.9.11 to Apple. It is currently awaiting Apple's approval.
Apple releases remaining versions of Mantis Bible Study 4.9.9
If you are running one of the "branded" versions of Mantis under iOS 5, and are experiencing difficulties, you should be able to update now. Tap the "App Store" icon and look under "Updates" for the Mantis Bible Study 4.9.9 update.
We are still working on fixing the following features which are currently incompatible with iOS 5:
Analyze Verse

Map display
We hope to have these remaining items working under iOS 5 soon.
