"Logos Now members enjoy new capabilities every six weeks." - https://www.logos.com/now-timeline

Since subscribing to Logos Now at the end of August 2016, I am aware of only one listed update, 7.2. By my reckoning, it has been about 22 weeks since Logos 7.0 was released. One update in 22 weeks seems quite a bit short of the advertised update every six weeks. Am I missing something?

    They missed updating the page for 7.3, which was released on Dec. 19 and includes Logos Now features. See here: https://wiki.logos.com/Logos_7.3

    New capabilities might not mean completely new features. There have also been improvements to the Courses tool, Bible Browser, Quick Start Layouts, Sermon Editor, and Morph Query Documents.

    Thanks to FL for including Carta and a Hebrew audio bible in Logos 9!

    I am aware of only one listed update, 7.2.

    If there is a 7.2, you know there was also a 7.1. If you use the "about Logos" feature to find your current version (probably 7.3) then you know there have been 3 releases since 7.0 ... accounting for 18 + weeks. If you are on the betas, they run a week apart with some inconsistencies. We are currently on 7.4 beta 4 so adding 4 to the 18 we get 22 weeks i.e. right on schedule.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Concur Logos Now Timeline page has "Logos Now members enjoy new capabilities every six weeks. See which features have been released every step of the way." with one new Now capability for 7.0 and two new Now capabilities for 7.2

    Logos wiki has => Logos 7 Release Notes that did not mention new/improved Now capabilities in Logos 7.1 (Bible Browser had a Bug fix for Now members) and Logos 7.0 (although Now Timeline shows Bible Browser for 7.0)
