Where's the audio read along on the iPhone?
I downloaded the app when I saw on the app description that it had audio read-along. I've been trying for the past 1 hour and can't find any way to click, download, buy, or enable audio for my bibles. Can someone advise?
I have the iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1 and the latest version of the Logos app from the App Store. I'll wait to get some feedback here before posting a review on the App Store.

Hi Asper - and welcome to the forums
Audio support is only available - as far as I know - for two Bibles - the ESV (streaming only) and the Lexham English Bible
Have you tried either of those versions?
Tap in the open resource and then select the speaker icon at the top

Also, I don't know what the current status is, but you used to have to acquire a license (although they were free).

I have the online version of ESV (didn't download it to my device) but there is no speaker icon anywhere. What is open resource? When I slide up or down on the screen with the bible open, all I see are different options but no speaker icon. Pls advise.

I don't own these. I searched for these in the Logos ios app and they don't come up. If I search for the word audio, nothing comes up on their store in the iOS app.

If you go to the Library panel and put "ESV" into the filter what do you get?
As you can see, I get an icon showing it is audio enabled

You will have to use the links I provided and use a web browser. Faithlife sells very little through the "in app" purchase system since Apple gets a 30% cut. (That basically means FL doesn't make much (if any) money on those purchases).

I don't get such results. Searching for ESV in my library gives me one result with no audio icon.
I'm not sure what's going on.

This makes sense. I'll try this out when I get home.

The ESV audio resource doesn't come free with the app. If you wish you can use the LEB resource - it includes audio (but for the New Testament only).

Just wanted to report back that this worked. Thanks. Adding ESV and LEB audio from the web browser enabled it in my iOS library. Huge help.
Are there any other versions or bibles that have audio?
