I am a bit confused about why there are two apps that seem to do the same thing. Can someone explain the difrerences and pros and cons of each?

    I am a bit confused about why there are two apps that seem to do the same thing. 

    There are actually at least four apps that basically do the same thing:

    1) Logos Mobile app

    2) Verbum Mobile app => for Catholic users of Logos/Verbum

    3) Biblia Logos => for Spanish-speaking users of Logos

    4) Faithlife Study Bible app => IMHO for new users who want to try out Logos for free (with resources like the FSB and the Lexham Bible).

    And then you also have the Noet & Vyrso apps for viewing books you've bought in the Noet and Vyrso stores.

    The free resources that are available within each app may vary. The Noet app for example gives you online access to Homer's Iliad. Other than that there is no real reason to install more than one app. 

    If I remember correctly not all features are available in the FSB, Noet and Vyrso apps.

    Thanks HJ for the quick replay.  Will stick with my Logos app.

    Also, prior to the massive update to v6 of the mobile apps (with the Tabs), having each of the apps was a way of organizing your reading with multiple books. You could have a Bible open in the "Bible" app, and have another in the "Vyrso" app. With the tab view, that is no longer necessary, however, for the time being, I still use it that way.
