CrossComm Releases Native Bible Reader Application for iPhone and iPod Touch in Time for the Holidays
December 23, 2008 — Durham, NC — CrossComm, Inc. today announced the release of the Bible Touch for the iPhone and iPod Touch, available immediately through the iTunes App Store. Each edition of Bible Touch includes one entire translation of the Bible, and allows a user to read that translation without the need for an Internet connection. The Bible Touch platform also allows users to quickly perform keyword searches and bookmark favorite passages, all while using a touch-savvy iPhone-like interface.
Bible Touch is initially being provided in four editions: Bible Touch NASB contains the New American Standard Bible, Bible Touch ESV features the English Standard Version, and Bible Touch LBLA and Bible Touch NBLH offer the La Biblia de las Américas and Nueva Biblia Latinoamericana de Hoy Spanish text translations, respectively. Bible Touch is available as a download from the iTunes App Store for $9.99 USD per edition. "We created four separate editions of Bible Touch in order to keep the licensing costs down," says Don Shin, President. "While we may package multiple translations as a single app in the future, for now we're taking an approach that would make each translation as affordable as possible on its own." CrossComm may release new translations and editions of Bible Touch in the future based upon demand and user response.
CrossComm is an early pioneer in iPhone software development, and launched a native iPhone game called Lumina on the day of the iTunes App Store launch. CrossComm plans to increase its commitment to the nascent mobile application market in 2009, and has recently created an internal team dedicated to iPhone and mobile software development and consulting. Following on the heels of developing the "Mobile by Citysearch" iPhone app for InterActive Corp., CrossComm is on track to launch an iPhone app for a subsidiary of NBC Universal in the near future.
