I'm one of the victims who owned Wordsearch and is being forced over to Logos.
Good grief! Logos is such a cumbersome beast compared to Wordsearch.
Why does it need to index EVERY TIME I open the app?
Why do they have the constant, unending, always changing with every micro-move of the mouse, suggestions on the righthand column? It's like a squirrel on 5 Hour Energy submitted that idea. What a distraction.
Why did they think it was a good idea to list my resources (i.e. commentaries, etc.) in a non-alphabetical order?
Why do they want to be the Photoshop of bible software? And by that I mean, "Let's have as much going on on-screen as one can possibly take at any given time?" The only thing missing is floating docks and maybe they don't have that yet because maybe Adobe has it copywritten?
I'd ask why to this next question but I already know the answer. When Logos bought Wordsearch why didn't they just let it continue to be a standalone software app? Answer: they didn't really want to buy the software, they wanted to buy the customers.
Thanks, Logos, for shutting down the ability to add to my library in Wordsearch so eventually if anyone wants to add to their library they HAVE TO DO SO through Logos. You had the money to buy Wordsearch but you didn't have the money to run it. Or, you didn't want to spend the money to run it (more likely).
There's a reason Wordsearch users weren't Logos users already: they didn't want this bloated pig of an app.
Finally, ( I'm sure someone will tell me that there are ways to customize this whole experience to more of my liking, but . .) Why did Logos think that I had the free time and the desire to learn a whole new bible app when I already knew a great one? How many hours of tutorials will one need to watch to become proficient in using this? Cuz Logos just knew for sure I'd want to spend my ample free time (not!) learning a new bible app.
To be sure: this was not so much a "for the Kingdom" purchase made by Logos, as it was a capitalistic purchase.
I haven't even looked at the prices of add-on commentaries yet, but I'm already anticipating them being more expensive. Gotta pay for that Wordsearch acquisition somehow.
