Hi:
I love all of the great content available on the Gospel Library app. I've been reading Handbook 2 extensively recently due to a new calling, and I love having it everywhere with me, so I can read it wherever I'm at!
However, I do find it a bit wearisome trying to navigate the long unbroken chapters of the Handbook. A lot of scrolling is required to navigate these chapters. With that, I have two requests:
1) Is it possible to add fast scroll capability to document pages that are long? Fast scroll is available when selecting chapters (Think hymn book contents), but not inside
of documents (think D&C 107.)
2) Is it possible to sub-divide the Handbook 2 chapters, to make it easier to navigate. If I have a leader to say, "turn to section 8.6.2", it would be very helpful to at least have the first-level sub-section (8.6) to get closer to the spot without a lot of scrolling.
Thanks for the great effort in putting together this app, making it so much easier for us to carry around our scriptures, manuals, handbooks, and other materials.

Re: Handbook 2 Subdivisions
I agree HB2 and other documents on Gospel library app are almost useless in a meeting situation as scrolling long chapters takes a long long time.
I find that downloading a PDF of the book and then using a PDF viewer instead of Gospel library is much better.
Advantages:
- Actual page view including pictures
- Hot links in the TOC and throughout the document.
- Fast page scroll and jump to page.
Note you may have to update your PDF viewer or install a different reader to get all those features. The real Adobe app (Android) works for me.
Minor Disadvantages:
- You have to pinch & Zoom frequently. Horizontal mode helps some with that.
- You have to go find the file
