Best iPhone Games – mrbass.org/iphone

LDS Church recently released (October 2009) a LDS Gospel Art Book which is $3.50 or $1.50 in bulk.  I made a nice iphone bundle with scripture links to each of the 137 images.  Handy for quick lookup within the LDS Scriptures app $15 by Standard Works.  Just create a free account within the app and then in your iphone LDS Scriptures app or on the www.ldsscripturesapp.com app search for “gospel art” and “mormonads” and subscribe to both and hit refresh and voila. You can also get all past and current issues of Ensign, Liahona, New Era and Friend.

Mormonads made an iphone bundle too. Back in summer of 2008 the LDS.org organized the New Era Mormonads into categories.  Still you can’t look up the scripture references as you have to drill down to the past issues go to the year, then the month and finally find the mormonad link.  So after 30 hours or so later that’s what I did and you can have all the links on your iphone. Mormonads go back to 1971 so it’s interesting viewing some of them.  All mormonads will be full screen in portrait mode and just tap on scripture reference to view the link within LDS Scriptures app. No need to zoom either as each Mormonad has the text of the message.

iWard $4 and iStake $8  I review them at the end of LDS Scriptures page here. Also review Scripture Challenge $1 which plots out page reading goals.

Skip along if your not Mormon as this will probably have zero interest to you.  For those of you who are,  I spent hours writing this review comparing the two $15 LDS Scripture Apps.  Of course the free The Scriptures application might be sufficient for your needs along with the free Hymns app.  I go in depth comparing them to one another to help you decide which one to get.  Thanks to both authors for upping the ante with each update.  Competition is good and both of these go head to head trying to add more content.  I remember visiting the U.S. back in 1995 and buying a LDS CD-ROM for Windows at an LDS Bookstore that cost me a cool $300.  Believe it had Encylopedia of Mormonism and tons of other content.  We’ve come quite a long way baby since then with both these apps weighing in at approxiamately 50MB and all on a handheld iPhone portable device.  Here’s the review http://mrbass.org/iphone/lds.
