Other improvements
- Improvements for devices with smaller screens. While the development team is not targeting, nor recommending Paratext Lite for use on cell phones, the reality is that people are finding the software useful on smaller devices. We are paying attention to how it displays on screens with smaller real-estate. That should also improve your experience if you happen to use this software on a phone.
