    This is actually a really old issue that has been around ever since the original Equipd app, and has never seen a solution. I thought I had better document it in the forums.

    The issue is limited to the side-by-side view when reading from multiple Bibles at once.

    Basically if you look up a scripture that is really short, and then try to select text inside the verses box to "Copy" - sometimes you cannot select any text. You are blocked from being able to click into the box to select any words.

    This is actually an iOS issue, and is related to the size of the verses box. If the amount of text is too small, which means that the box is also small, then the text selection stops working.

    The workaround is to do anything that makes the verses box bigger. Your options are:
    1. Make the font size bigger
    2. Tap on another verse to load into the box
    I typically go with option 2. By increasing the content inside the box, text will suddenly become selectable again :)
