What’s New Version 4.0
Performance and stability improvements. Numerous user interface improvements. New features: filter the citation index by speaker, year, corpus; filter the citation index by frequency; group citations by individual verse; browse talks by speaker; print/export all of a speaker's talks; access the Spanish version of the database.
Description
The Scripture Citation Index is the mobile version of scriptures.byu.edu.
This app lets you navigate easily between the scriptures (standard works of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: The Holy Bible, The Book of Mormon, etc.) and the General Conference talks and other writings that cite those scriptures.
For example, you can see who has cited 1 Timothy 4:12 or Daniel 2:44 in General Conference (1942-present), in the Journal of Discourses, or in Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith.
Our users tell us that this app is very helpful for scripture study and lesson/talk preparation.
