"Extra" verses not showing in Sacred Music App

#1

Post by EmmaNadine »

I have the newest version of the Sacred Music app (including the new hymns that were released this morning.) However, I noticed that the "extra" verses no longer show for hymns like "A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief" and "How Firm a Foundation." If you go in through the Gospel Library and access the music that way, you can get to the extra verses if you swap over to lyrics, but that isn't an option in the Sacred Music app itself. As a ward music coordinator in a ward that uses their devices to sing, not having the extra verses is not good. Why aren't they there? Do I need to fix a setting somewhere? Or if this was a deliberate choice, can I register a protest somewhere? Not being able to sing the second half of "A Poor Wayfaring Man" makes you miss the point of the hymn! I'm using an Android device, if that matters.

I see the same thing if I use "Sheet Music (resizable)" but it's there in "Sheet Music (PDF)".

Thanks! I couldn't believe that they just got rid of so many verses, but I couldn't find the right setting to see them. I'll make sure people in my ward know how to access them as well.
