Would it be possible to make mantis available on the Android operating system?

We are considering an Android version.

I don't know what I can offer you to encourage that decision, but my undying gratitude is on the table...

Any updates on your consideration? I'm trying to move everything from my iPod to my android phone but I need some bible study software. Mantis is the best IMHO so I would love to be able to use your software there.

Nothing new to report yet. I would not expect to hear anything on this until after the first of the year at least.

I would also love to see this for Android. Mantis is the best and I don't have an iPhone anymore. Any thoughts or development towards making an Android version?

No report yet. We're still researching all the pieces that we'd need in order to provide an Android version. The research has gone slower than we expected, though, with the resources we have.

There are technical issues here, business ones, licensing issues with all the publishers we work with, etc. Many of the publishers are taking a "wait-and-see" position at this time because of all the tablet announcements, so getting additional licensing permissions for our existing content may not be possible for a while. We'll see more, maybe, after the Apple tablet announcement.

Please PLEASE add an Android version. There is very little to compare with Mantis (I have it on my Touch) in the Android arena. What an open market for you guys. I would love to see Mantis software for Android- IMHO it is the best Bible software in the portable arena period...

The iPad hasn't been released yet. April 3rd, I think.

No official word on Android yet. We probably will not be able to comment until we are ready to release something -- at least a test version.

As a long time user of mania on the iPone and iPad and now Android it would be great to have a great Bible study tool on the android it. I love the program and it would be awesome. :)

Android doesn't know Mantis (replaced it with mania)

We are working on an Android version of Mantis, but it's gone slower than we'd hoped. It's coming, though.

Hello,

When Mantis for Andriod is available will we be able to switch our purchased books from iPhone to Android or will we need to purchase them again?

Our plan is to allow you to use your purchased books on Android.

OK, Great, thanks! What about the desktop version will that also allow use of the same books?

Yes, the desktop should also use the same books.

All great news. I'm going to have to loose my iphone soon (it belongs to work) and I'll be using an android platform instead.
