Love the application, but sometimes when I try to open it, it crashes, it shows the logo and after a couple of seconds just goes back to the iphones homescreen.

This may be a bug in Mantis, or it could be in the iPhone OS.  I have this problem with a bunch of different apps (or sometimes all of them) and then when I reboot my phone everything works again.  Ugh.

As for Mantis, if you have a spotty net connection, this could be a problem.  Just go into the Settings page, and turn of "Check for Updates."  That'll solve your problem, but you'll need to manually "Get Updates" every time you purchase a new Bible for Mantis.

I rebooted my Iphone and it doesn't seem to be doing it anymore. Thank you so much for the feedback, it's cool to comunicate with our software programers.
