I uploaded some pictures to the user’s media area and everything showed fine; but then when I got to the church building (no internet) my media place was empty.
If I uploaded my pictures, then why do I need internet for them to appear? DAL

"Upload" usually means "to Faithlife server". So you wouldn't see any Media at the Church as it is all online.

Must be a FL limited understanding of the word upload, because I upload pictures from my iPhone to my computer and no internet is needed. Upload is data transfer; yes it can involve the internet, but in this case it’s totally stupid to even upload to the software if you can’t even access it while offline line.
It came straight from my computer and Logos should have a media folder so we can access our content both on or off line, just like we have access to our books and their media offline.
Anyway, another feature request, I guess.

PS. Thanks for clarifying, though, that’s a new one for me — FL’s exclusive meaning of “upload.”
Unfortunately, what you are asking for is not possible - uploading/downloading require a way to transmit the data from one device to another. On a phone that transmission is built in. On most other devices, it requires the internet or a personal network. To do what you want you must download to the church device from a location where the internet is available. Then it will be available locally at church.

When you upload pictures from your iPhone to your computer, both devices are local. A (local area) network is being used to directly transfer the pictures between the two local devices. The internet is not needed since nothing is remote.
When you upload media from your computer to FL, the internet is used to transfer the media to a remote FL server.
The pictures don’t appear because they’re not local to your church computer. They were uploaded to FL, not directly transferred to your church computer.
For your church computer to access that remote media on the FL server, it would also need to use the internet. That’s not a specific FL limitation. An offline computer can’t access (or sync with) a remote server until it is online.

I don't know, it seems like a pretty common understanding ...
