This page provides some tips and tricks to try to resolve any problems that may be encountered during app installation

Each of the apps available for download contains an internal database that is copied to the application's storage area for providing quick access to app pages. Please allow sufficient time for the app to run the first time it is started to ensure that database is copied successfully.

How to easily clear RAM on your iOS Device

This is especially useful for apps that crash during installation.

  1. Make sure your iPhone is unlocked and then hold down the power button as if you were turning off the phone.
  2. Instead of the usual “slide to power off” swipe to turn it off, hold down the Home button for around 5 seconds. You should see the phone go straight back to your applications screen.

The above steps will flush out the RAM on your iPhone, clearing out all junk processes and freeing up RAM on your iOS device. More at: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/12/how-can-i-clear-my-iphones-memory-without-rebooting

Fixing iOS App Crashes

If you are experiencing problems with any of the apps, first delete the app, then close all background apps (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP9y6w4z1gc). This is a handy trick to free up additional memory to your device for ensuring a good app installation. Next download the app again from the Apple App store (free of charge using the original iTunes Account information) and run the app. Please wait for the app to completely install and run before closing the app. If you still have problems send me an email jimpcoates@gmail.com providing the app name, the device type (iPad, iPhone) and the iOS version you are using and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Sunday Lectionary

The Sunday Lectionary app does in fact contain years a A, B, C however only the current year index is provided until the first day of Advent. On the first day of Advent (of the following year) when the user opens the app, the indexes recalculate for the new Christian year. If you need to peak ahead, you can set your device clock to the first day of Advent and open the app so the app can recalculate the next year indexes. If you do this, it should only be done for viewing the  Sunday Lectionary app as other apps will be adversely affected because of the change in device date. Make sure you reset your device back to the current date.  Or you can just wait until this coming Advent (November 29, 2015). 

Daily Office Lectionary

The Daily Office Lectionary behaves the same as the Sunday Lectionary in that it only displays the current year index up until the first day of Advent. On the first day of Advent (of the following year) when the user opens the app, the indexes recalculate for the new Christian year. If you need to peak ahead, you can set your device clock to the first day of Advent and open the app so the app can recalculate the next year indexes. If you do this, it should only be done for viewing the  Sunday Lectionary app as other apps will be adversely affected because of the change in device date. Make sure you reset your device back to the current date.  Or you can just wait until this coming Advent (November 29, 2015).
