Tech Forum

For the online sacrament program, looking to link to the hymn lyrics.
One option is the page that shows sheet music with a tab to switch to just lyrics. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/med ... e?lang=eng
People seem to not see the tab, just decide the sheets are too big for their phone and stop using the link.

Another option is the study manual link. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/stu ... atform=web
It just shows the lyrics but when opened on a phone as a link it loads the Gospel Library app, which would be fine except the back button doesn't bring the person back to the program webpage afterward. The link actually opens a new instance of the app and there is no back. The person has to switch apps, which some people get confused by.

Anyone know of a way to link to just lyrics that stays in the browser so the back button works? I tried adding &platform=web but the Gospel Library app still kicks in.

Thank you for any guidance you can offer.

I am so frustrated to access lyrics only. I still don't find the page. The menu is not user friendly at all. The app should be improved ASAP.

This Tech Forum is primarily for user-to-user discussion, and is not connected to the Church support system. If you want to ask for changes to any Church webpages or Church apps, you should do so via the Feedback mechanism available at the bottom of most Church webpages, or inside any of the Church apps. That will get your input to the correct Church team that is responsible for the issue you describe.

In both the Hymns and the Hymns for Home and Church sections of the Gospel Library App (I'm on the Android version - the iOS version should be similar):
1. Select the hymn you want to sing
2. At the top of the page, you can select the tab for the Music or the tab for just the Lyrics.

In the Gospel Library online, once you select a hymn (just like the app above), there are buttons at the top of the page to show the pdf music, the lyrics only, or the interactive sheet music.
