BibleReader allows the user to create their own personal annotations for a particular verse of scripture. With the verse displayed at the top of the screen just open the Note editing screen, and type in your note (or Copy/Paste) using the onboard keyboard. When completed tap the OK button. A note can be a maximum of 8,000 characters.
Note: Notes are saved with the following naming scheme: note_(name). (The name should be 10 characters or less.) Every note will contain the prefix note_.
There are three ways to access the Notes screen:
| 1. | Through the menu: Tree > Tools > Notes |
| 2. | By tapping on the Notes icon: |
| 3. | Using the Graffiti shortcut: /N |
Note: If the asterisk does not appear in front of the verse after creating a Personal Note, go to Tree > Options > Preferences > Verse Display and be sure that "Personal Notes Icon" is enabled.
