Puzzled: Resource Availability on iDevices

I was looking for books with "discipleship" in the title.

- On my desktop Logos 7, there are 9.

- On my iPad mini 4 Verbum app, there are only 7. Why?

- On my iPad mini 4 (same device) Logos app, there are all 9.

Moreover, when I looked at one of the two missing books (Real-life Discipleship: Building Churches that Make Disciples, by Jim Putnam) on the desktop, it shows the following (attached screen shot).

Why are some books only available in some of the apps? I thought the apps are interchangeable when it comes to resource compatibility? And they seem to vary from device to device...?

[Note: In case you're wondering, I don't actually own all these devices now. Only the iPad mini 4 and iPhone SE are current. I just have to go in and clean up the devices list.]

    On your iPad mini 4, open the Verbum app and navigate to the Home Page, then enter "rebuild index" in the reference field and wait a few minutes before trying the library search filter again.

    On a per-account basis, every purchased mobile-compatible resource is available in every mobile reader suite app (Bible, Biblia, Noet, Faithlife Study Bible, Verbum and Vyrso).

    Each mobile app bundles different free resources tailored to that specific app, but those free per-app bundled resources may or may not be available in the other apps. Only purchased mobile-compatible resources are available in all mobile apps.

    By default, the Vyrso app does not show all resources. To show all resources in the Vyrso app, open Settings and toggle the Vyrso Resources Only option to the left.

    That worked, thanks for the tips and the clarification.
