A Question for Logos/Verbum Dual Users
I've always ran Logos and Verbum on my desktop PC but never downloaded many resources in my Verbum install (I kept it on Verbum 9 and on offline mode as a "just in case"). I've recently decided that I should probably primarily be running Verbum rather than Logos, considering (for my own use case) the only downside is a…

Zoom
Moving this here from another forum location: When changing the font size on screen for a book, rather than clicking + and - buttons, it would be much quicker if the zoom number (e.g., 150%) would accept a typed number directly. Thanks. [And the new forum looks great.]

Christmas coupon and payment plans
Since payment plans (PPlans) include some heavy interest, couldn't Logos allow its coupons (like the Christmas one) to be used on PPlans? Some of the requirements are expensive by themselves (minimum of 200 etc), especially if your currency is very devalued compared to the Dollar (my case, sadly). Besides, Christmas may be…

Mobile Audio does not keep place in book
I have had a problem when I list to a book on mobile and then come back to the app later. It does not save the spot in the book that I stopped at, but reverts back to the original page. If I click the x on the audio box below and scroll a little, it will save my spot though. Any fix for this?

Why do Logos Reader Editions take so long
I can understand Research Editions may take time to develop, but why do Reader Editions, which "forgo the robust treatment given to reference works" take so long despite the claim that "this drastically speeds up production".

Copy and Paste Problem in Notes -- Match Destination Formatting (MAC)
For those OCD types like myself, there's a problem when pasting, say, a commentary quote into a note on a Bible passage. When I paste the text, it is in a different size and font from my personally written note. In order to get the same font size for the whole note, I need to select all, select a different font, then…

Copy & Paste formatting in Pages 14

The format in the paste does keep the font of my document, which is Proxima…

The image below is from a synopsis for a search on All for χρηστότης.

The Teacher’s Outline and Study Bible
This is possibly a question for DAL. I seem to recall you're a fan of The Preacher’s Outline and Sermon Bible. How does The Teacher’s Outline and Study Bible compare? Is it an abridgement and if so does in retain the good features of the larger volumes or is it too light on detail?

Function Issue that MUST Be Addressed
I like the new way of accessing the Parallel Resources panel. But there's a funtional problem that is critical and makes the tool very difficult to use at times. Simple fix: Popups.

Logos crashes repeatedly on Mac OS Sequoia
Upgraded to Sequoia now Logos is buggy. If I float my mouse anywhere near the menu bar the app crashes. I'm running a MacBook Pro with an Apple M1 Pro chip.

After Search; Turn OFF yellow Highlight for clipping to MS Word
Smart Search works fantastic. However, I prefer to "paste to external" documents. Can you turn off, (Or Toggle) the yellow highlighting, in the found resource?

Gird the loins of your mind my peeps

AI pre-summarizing books
This may be the proverbial stupid question. As I understand it, some AI reports depend on the books in your library. But a summary in a specific book depends on you having that book and is independent of the rest of your library.

Reflecting on Logos Subscription Model & opportunity
Logos has really made a big difference in how we approach Bible study, which I appreciate. However, I was taken aback by their new subscription model.

Advertising books I own / Emails from logos
