What's New in Pure Bible Search
3.1
November 3, 2026
The search stays with its answer. THE SEARCH, PINNED ABOVE THE VERSES The search now stays at the top while the verses move under it — "holy ghost spirit · Entire Bible", then 1,225 occurrences in 997 verses — so a screenshot of any verse shows the question it answers and the count beside it. One chevron switches it between that line with its totals and the full search, with each phrase and its own count; Include, Exclude and the search settings fold on their own chevrons, and stay as you leave them. STRONG'S REFERENCES ARE LINKS A Strong's definition that cites another number — "From G5536; compare the original sense of G5530" — carries a search icon before each one, and a tap finds every rendering of that original word, counted. Only numbers the King James actually renders are linked, so a tap never opens an empty search. A SHARED SEARCH SAYS WHAT IT IS Export a search and the message now opens with the search itself and what it found, rather than "1 saved search in 1 folder", so whoever receives it knows what they are being sent before they open it. ALSO The end of the results, the library and Settings scroll clear of the bottom edge of the screen.
