"Currently, some third-party developers are using backdoor methods to screen-scrape the Church’s copyrighted content. This will no longer be permitted."

Sorry, I should have added some context. I simply pulled an interesting quote. I think it reasonable to think that a certain number of the "third-party developers" in question are here on this forum. I know there's been a few that have reformatted the scriptures into the format needed by their particular reader. I echoed it to let them know.

John,
Thats great news to see it finally here. I have one question:
Will it be a case of we are allowed to just pull, display and discard the info or will we be allowed to store the info we are pulling so it can be read in offline mode (just like the Gospel Library apps are doing)?
I hope the latter is the case.
