The following are the Premium features of MySword:

1. Unlimited Journal entries
   • The non-premium only allows 7 entries per Journal/Book.
2. Unlimited creation of Journals
   • The non-premium only allows 10 updateable Journals.
3. Compare arrangement capability
   • You can select what translations to enable in Bible Compare and you can also arrange the sequence.
4. Special Bible viewer that can be launched from the Editor
   • The user will not have to exit the Editor to view the Bible anymore.
5. Better Link entry in Personal Notes similar to the Journal Editor
   • Instead of typing the link codes inside the square brackets, you are given a menu to select what type of link (Bible, Notes, Journal, Dictionary, Strong's or Commentary) and a specialized selector window will appear. This way errors in entries are prevented.
6. Capability to show Bible chapter in paragraph mode instead of verse mode.
   • Note that not all Bible modules have paragraph tags. Modules with paragraph tags are: ASV, ISV, LEB, KJV, KJVLite, NET, WEB, YLT. Bible modules without paragraph tags are displayed in the original verse mode.
   • It is also possible to use the default paragraph based on KJV for those modules without paragraph tags.
7. Capability to hide/show tags like Strong's, morphological, translators' notes and title; show words of Jesus in Red/Normal color; and Add/remove the verse line spacing.
8. Visual theme editor for user-created color themes. Change the color of the background, highlights, Strong's numbers, etc. Also you can make the text bold, italic, underlined, subscript or superscript.
   
   
   • The non-premium only allows editing the text CSS code of the theme.
9. Parallel Bible view. You can now compare whole chapters of Bible translations you select side by side. This is very useful for tablets and large screen phones.
   
   • The non-premium is limited to Chapter 1 only for all books of the Bible as demo.
10. Search improvements:
    • User-settable search limit. For non-premium, it is fixed to 100 entries.
    • Full-text search (FTS) support for Bible, Commentary, Dictionary and Personal Verse Notes. The user has the option to create, use FTS or use the ordinary search. For non-premium, only encrypted modules enable the creation of FTS index as searching through encrypted text is really very slow. The Journal/Book already has built-in support for full-text search though (no need to create).
11. Modules (Bibles, Dictionaries, Commentaries, Journals/Books) can be hidden to make the list shorter. See Menu->Preference->Modules Management.
12. Export Bible, Commentary, Dictionary, Personal Notes and Journal/Book current page content to HTML file.
13. Share content (Bible verse, verse range, notes, journal entry and other content as well) via Email and SMS.
14. Added swipe left column for brightness adjustment and pinch-zoom for font-size adjustment. Please go to the Preferences to enable these.
15. Bookmark capabilities for all other module types: Notes, Commentaries, Dictionaries and Journals/Books. Except for Notes, the bookmark is per module (per commentary, dictionary, journal/book). Also, the scroll position is saved as percentage.
16. Unlimited undo/redo capability for the editors
