Suggestion: Logos 7 Fuzzy Search

I want to be able to type my vague memory of a particular verse and have Logos tell me what it is. Currently Logos never gets it but google always gets it instantly. eg. I start typing "faith proves the existence of the invisible" a misquote but close. Google has no problem and points me to Hebrews 11:3

Logos returns nothing.

I want to be able to type my vague memory of a particular verse and have Logos tell me what it is.

Thread => Logos Search FAILS discussion includes search example of:

Lord worry

Dreaming of Bible Search option to allow search terms to cross Chapter and Verse boundaries (similar to Match case); default is search WITHIN a verse. Would like option for Bible search WITHIN a chapter. Also would like option for Bible search WITHIN a book.

eg. I start typing "faith proves the existence of the invisible" a misquote but close. Google has no problem and points me to Hebrews 11:3

Replicated no results in Logos. Bible Search for:

faith invisible

finds Hebrews 11:3 in a few Bibles:

I attended one of those FaithLife tours in Bellingham last year. At the Q&A with Bob the question of bringing back Fuzzy Search in L7 came up. Now, my fuzzy memory will not allow me to state unequivocally that Bob committed to FS being in L7, but I would be willing to say that he at least responded with something like, "We have heard you regarding this" - thereby implying that FL/Logos is definitely looking in to the possibility of bringing it back.

MJ was in my group ... maybe she remembers Bob's comments better than I.

Would definitely like to see this again!

In 2011, Bob Pritchett posted a comment on that suggestion: "We anticipate bringing back fuzzy search as well. I’m sorry, but no date is available yet." Well, come on. "No date" shouldn't mean pushed off indefinitely. Four years is long enough to wait. I hope it is something they are actually working on already.

IIRC Bob basically said that other items keep moving above it in Faithlife priorities ... so the way to change priorities is uservoice ,,,,
