Ive sat quietly on the sideline

Software developers have to change things or they would not have a job. Does that justify what they did? No, but that is their motive.

I use to use the copy feature to send the daily devotional to a friend with whatever comments that I was moved to write and he would do the same. We would not read each others until ours was written. It was not only amazing, but fun. We could even look back to the same date a year earlier and see how our interpretation had changed. All of that including the historical value was destroyed.

MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL is that we both had paid for app versions. As well as purchasing literally 100s of copies of the written version to hand out to people whose paths we crossed, we would eventually encourage them to purchase the electronic version.

We still use the printed version as a ministry. However, I can not encourage the purchase of the current electronic version.

The 300 character limitation is worse than having the feature turned off.

If the publishers motivation is purely monetary, I would gladly pay $20 for the old version again. Yes, that would be charging twice for something I had already paid for, but this current version is worthless. What we received with the old version is priceless.

Remember, the publishers will stand to answer for their actions to the highest authority.
