Frequently Asked Questions


How do I download more Bibles and other resources?

Tap the menu button () on the Bible view's top toolbar, then tap the "Bibles" menu item under the "Download" section. Select the item you wish to download, then tap the "Download" button on the top toolbar to do so. Repeat as needed for each of the different download resource types.


How do I install the iPhone copy of the e‑Sword premium module I previously purchased?

All you need to install your e‑Sword LT module at no additional cost is to enter your Email address and "Product Key" you received when you purchased the module for use with e‑Sword. If you do not have that information, just tap on the "Recover Product Key" button on the popover that prompts for this information.


How do I purchase a "locked" module?

When you attempt to download a "locked" module it will display a dialog prompting for your "Product Key". On that dialog is a "Purchase From ..." button that you can tap to be redirected to the publisher's web site for pricing/purchasing if you wish to do so.


How do I delete downloads I no longer want?

Tap the menu button () on the Bible view's top toolbar, then tap the "Installed" menu item. Select the item you wish to delete, then tap the "Delete" button on the top toolbar to do so.


How do I transfer my user files to another device?

On the first device, tap the menu button in e‑Sword, then tap the "Backup User Files" menu item. Select a shared cloud location to back them up to. Afterwards, on the new device, tap the menu button in e‑Sword, then tap the "Import" menu item. Select your user files from that same shared cloud location. These steps are also how you backup your user files for safe-keeping.
