Organize multiple notes in the same verse by the order it first appears in the verse. As it appears now they are in random order.

Add "view" icon for user-created links
One thing that would be incredibly helpful would be if the user-created links could include a way to tap and view the linked text the same way the footnotes do (ie. the little eye symbol to the right of the footnote reference link), rather than having to jump to the actual location of the link. That would allow for viewing of linked scriptures and other content (as can be done from iOS and Android versions) from the current location, which would be a big benefit for study.

Have my highlights print when printing the document.
The print feature is a great add, however, when printing the highlights do not print. It would be great to have them. I use this for talks and need the highlights.
Currently I "print" to PDF and use Adobe to go through and highlight what I need.4 votesThis is currently planned, but also currently impossible because of how printers treat webpages. In the future, we’ll see about trying to find a suitable workaround.

Organizing Annotations
We need to be able to reorder annotations within a chapter or verse. In a verse, for example, the first annotation shows up last, etc. Each additional annotation is added to the top of the list.

Manage Deleted Annotations (Effectively, Undo)
A means of managing deleted annotations so that accidentally deleted notes, highlights, bookmarks, and more, can be restored.
Original Suggestion:
How about an undo button? I accidentally erased a marking that had an annotation with some copied quotes from leaders in it. I cannot duplicate the annotation as the original was done a year ago.11 votesI’ve changed this to “Manage Deleted Annotations” because while an undo feature is impractical for the app, we do have plans to make it possible to get back what you may have lost.

Include Verse Number in Search Results

Closed Captioning for Videos
Please add captioning for the videos since I cant hear or make out the words. Thanks.
10 votesWhile if it were in our power, we’d love to make this possible, we develop the application, not the content, and this feature would require content-level support. The content is handled by an entirely different group of people. They provide the content for the apps, we can only make available what they make available.
If, in the future, captions become available for inclusion in the application, we will revisit this suggestion.

Mark footnotes containing specific types of data
On an older version of the scriptures web site, there was a setting available that would mark footnotes (with a dot) that contained a specific type of item, based on your choice using checkboxes. The types would be things such as scripture references, topical guide references, bible dictionary, alternate translations, JST, and other notes (IE, OR, etc.). This was a great feature that I used all the time, especially when studying Isaiah or other books in the old testament to see very quickly which footnotes contained alternate translations, JST, or notes. For the gospel library app, you could use a…

Navigate to next/previous chapter by tapping left/right side of screen like kindle paperwhite.
I find the swipe action requires a very vigorous swipe, on my Lumia 640 at any rate. Its a bit more distracting too. A tap on the side like you can do with the kind e-readers would be a simpler approach.

2 pages
I have a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 that is big enough to show scripture pages side by side. I'd like to be able to show 2 pages of scriptures side by side when looking at the screen in landscape mode, instead of one big page. It's easier to read if you don't have to read all the way across the whole screen, then try to find the next line when you have to look all the way back to the other side of the screen. I'd even like it more if it could show the 2 pages laid out as…

Ability to share a bookmark with others.
This would have to incorporate some sort of social networking structure, but it would be really neat if I could share bookmarks or notes with others. It would especially be neat if everyone in my family could share a bookmark for family scripture study.

Pen-Written Notes (Inside Note Canvas)
So I figured out a good way to implement the use of the Pen for Surface Devices. Allow writability in the notes that you can already create as you read. This way you can still write to your heart's content and not mess with the app. All written material will be self contained within the notes.
22 votesAlthough we still need to get support from the Annotations web service and implementation on iOS and Android devices (so that they can read those notes), we do like this idea and will keep it in mind as we continue development of v4 (the Windows 10 UWP version of the app).

Allow an "introduction" note to be entered before the selection
I prepare lessons using the app. I would like to be able to place the note prior to the selection. Placing the note prior to the selection acts as an introduction to the selection that is helpful for creating lessons or to act as reminders of what to look for the next time I read the selection as part of my personal scripture study.
13 votesWe are considering making it an option to either show the notes before the highlight or after.

In night mode have the ability to change the hyperlinks color.
While being in night mode it would be nice to have the ability to change the color of the hyperlinks to the same blue that is used in daytime mode.

Custom Color/Style Labels
When selecting the colors to highlight or underline, it would be extremely useful to be able to assign labels for them to help customize the functionality on a personal level. For instance when highlighting, selecting the highlight from the drop down, it would pull up a list of the colors that I have chosen, and next to each color would be a subject title that I have assigned.
This would make studies easier and more efficient because they would then be able to make more sense on a personal level and be able to allow us to see things in…
