Frequently asked questions

Do I need an internet connection or an account?

No. Every translation is included in the app and there is no account.

How do I sync between iPhone, iPad and Mac?

Sign in to the same Apple Account with iCloud enabled on each device, and keep Settings › Sync & Privacy › iCloud Sync on. Changes sync automatically.

How do I back up or export my notes?

Open Library › ••• › Export. Choose Markdown, CSV or a full JSON backup. A JSON backup can be restored with Library › ••• › Restore Backup.

I fell behind on my reading plan.

Open the plan and tap Catch Up. Your schedule moves so your next unread day is today. You keep all your progress.

The read-aloud voice sounds robotic.

Download an Enhanced or Premium voice in your device's Settings › Accessibility › Spoken Content › Voices, then choose it in Lectern › Settings › Audio.

How do I restore Lectern Plus?

Open Settings › Lectern Plus › Restore Purchases, using the same Apple Account you bought it with. Family Sharing members get it automatically.

Why are some verse numbers different in my translation?

Some traditions number the Psalms differently (for example, the Russian Synodal follows the Greek numbering). Lectern maps them automatically, so your highlights and notes appear on the right verse in every translation.
