Hi! I understand you'd like to have only the NIV version available on your Bible app on your iPhone running iOS 18.5. Could you tell me a bit more about your current setup? Are you using the YouVersion Bible app or another NIV-specific app? Also, do you want to download just the NIV version for offline use or remove other versions from your app altogether?

Meanwhile, here’s a helpful start for using and downloading the NIV version on your iPhone:

1. If you use the YouVersion Bible app:
- Open the app, tap on the version abbreviation at the top (e.g., "NIV", "KJV").
- Search and select "NIV" from the list of Bible versions.
- Once selected, a download button or cloud icon usually appears to download the NIV version for offline use. Tap it to download.
- You can then read NIV without needing internet.
- Other versions will remain available unless you manually avoid selecting or downloading them.

2. Using an NIV-only app:
- There are dedicated NIV Bible apps for iPhone like the official "NIV Bible" app by Biblica & Zondervan from the App Store.
- Installing that app ensures you get only the NIV translation.
- These apps usually allow free streaming and offline downloading of NIV text and audio.

Would you like me to guide you on how to remove other versions from the YouVersion app, or do you prefer assistance installing a dedicated NIV Bible app? Let me know!

No when I tap on NIV the list is blank

Thanks for the extra info! You're tapping on NIV in your Bible app, but the list comes up blank, meaning you can’t see or select chapters or verses in that version. Let’s try to dig into this together.

Here’s what I recommend as step-by-step fixes for this issue on your iPhone with iOS 18.5:

1. Force close and restart the Bible app:
- Swipe up from the bottom (or double-click the home button) to open the app switcher.
- Locate the Bible app and swipe it away to close it fully.
- Reopen the app and try tapping NIV again.

2. Check your internet connection:
- Sometimes the Bible versions and content need to fully sync online before displaying correctly.
- Make sure you’re on a stable Wi-Fi or cellular connection.

3. Clear app cache or reinstall (if available):
- The YouVersion Bible app doesn’t have a direct "clear cache" button, but reinstalling can help refresh corrupted files.
- Press and hold the app icon, tap “Remove App” then go back to the App Store and reinstall it.
- Sign back in and check the NIV version.

4. Sign out and sign in again:
- Open the Bible app.
- Go to Settings > Account > Sign Out.
- Then sign back in and try the NIV version again.

5. Check for any updates:
- Go to the App Store > Updates and make sure your Bible app is up to date (sometimes bugs like this are fixed by developers).

6. Verify if this happens just with NIV or other versions too:
- Try selecting other Bible versions; if they load normally, it might be a temporary server-side issue with NIV access.

If after trying these steps the NIV list still shows blank, it might be an issue with the app’s current version or its connection to the NIV license servers. In that case, contacting YouVersion support or checking their status might be needed.

Would you like me to walk you through any of these steps, or have you already tried some of these?
