I think you misinterpreted and/or were mislead by Marvin marketing info. The newer versions of iOS have a nice feature to allow two different apps to run side by side on an iPad, provided the apps are built with that feature. Both Marvin 3 and Marvin SxS are, so are iBooks and many other non-ereader apps, like Clock. However, you CAN'T run two instances of the same app side-by-side. Thus, Marvin's developer saw an opportunity to essentially sell Marvin 3 twice to the same customer who want to read two books at the same time side-by-side with Marvin 3. However, if you are not such a customer, I would advise you get a refund of Marvin SxS, and then get Marvin 3 instead. With the free (trial) version of Marvin 3, you can make sure that you have tested out the features (such as sync) before doing an in-app purchase.

This is totally inaccurate. Marvin SxS allows the reading of two pages at a time side by side on the screen, so is ideal for landscape reading on an iPad.
This was NOT a marketing ploy by the programme author but is genuinely useful if you like reading this way.
Please do not post misleading information @cedhax.
