Although 1.4.2 brought more reliable sync, faster media delivery and faster Bible lens, it also caused app crashing and problems with synchronization. Update now on all of your devices to take care of these issues!

For those still missing their notes:
We are working hard to restore all missing notes to the new system. The migration will start today and happen gradually over the next few days. This new release is a big step – you need to have the new release for the best results. The migration is a gradual process, so you should start seeing them appear over the next week or so. Update now!

If you continue to have issues, we want to get you fixed. Please submit a support ticket with details: http://bit.ly/glosupport

Unfortunately this release has caused issues for many users that we are working hard to resolve. There are 2 main issues:

1. 1) Notes not appearing: Many users who have created notes in their Glo Bible are not seeing their notes in their Journal. Don’t worry, these notes are NOT lost if you are a registered user. They are still in the old synchronization system and not yet appearing in the new system as they should. We are working on a fix for this that should be ready on Mac/PCfirst, and soon followed on iOS as soon as Apple approves it. Any notes that you make in the meantime will not be lost and be added to your existing notes when they are restored.
2. 2) Crashes: Some users cannot open or use their app because of crashes. This also will be addressed in the next release coming soon. In the meantime, this is often solved by removing and re-installing the app. More info here.

If you are experiencing either of these issues, we sincerely apologize for the downtime. Please submit a support ticket with details, and we will alert you as soon as the issues are resolved.

The timetable is in flux, but we are working hard to get a Mac and PC fix very shortly, and submit iOS to the Apple store soon after. We will keep you posted on when both are ready.
