iPhone / iPod TouchBibleReader 5: Frequently Asked Questions
What is Enhanced Content?
Enhanced Content refers to behind-the-scenes enhancements Olive Tree has made to various resources to intelligently link their contents to Bibles, study Bibles, and commentaries. BibleReader's Resource Guide collects and displays Enhanced Content in an easy-to-use manner that makes finding information related to the verse or verses you are studying almost magical.
For example, if you are studying John 3:16 and you open the Resource Guide, BibleReader will list
- Articles on people, places, and other topics
- Study Bible notes
- Commentaries
- Outlines
- Introductions to books of the Bible
- Cross references
- Maps
from enhanced resources that otherwise would not be linked to John 3:16 but that have direct bearing on this verse. BibleReader's built-in intelligence assists you in Bible study by providing smart links to information in enhanced resources in one easy-to-use location, thus reducing what could have been hours of research on your part to the few seconds it takes to tap a link in the Resource Guide!
Olive Tree has enhanced many Bibles, study Bibles, commentaries, maps, and other resources for BibleReader 5 and is hard at work enhancing more. You can see many of Olive Tree's enhanced products by clicking here.

Why do my iTunes purchases not show up in my Olive Tree account?
You need to register your iTunes purchases with your Olive Tree account by following the steps included under “How do I combine my multiple BibleReader icons into one?”
If you have already attempted this and encountered a problem, you can forward your iTunes confirmation email to support@olivetree.com as proof of purchase so we can manually add the product to your Olive Tree account.
How do I get a refund for my olivetree.com purchased product?
All purchases made directly from olivetree.com are fully refundable within 30 days of purchase. Just complete a support ticket request or email us at support@olivetree.com. It would help if you have your order number.
How do I get a refund for my iTunes account purchased product?
To submit your purchase for a refund: on your email from iTunes confirming your iTunes purchase there is a link next to the Olive Tree product to “Report A Problem”.
This link will open up your iTunes software on your computer and prompt you to login to your iTunes account.
Select the application from the list provided, and then on their “Report a Problem” page (which can also be accessed from your Purchase History screen), you will see a drop down box allowing you to select the appropriate issue.
Because the product was purchased from iTunes we unfortunately do not have access to their accounting or have a record of this transaction. Unlike purchases from our website, your purchase is governed by your agreement with iTunes, so we cannot guarantee that they will give a refund.
If you cannot find your question here, please feel free to complete a support ticket request or email us at support@olivetree.com.
