My Logos Mobile Store Experience

I rarely use the IOS mobile app store.  Today, I decided to allow about one minute to find a book on compassion. 

  1. Intuitively, I selected the hamburger menu.
  2. At the bottom of the "Popular" section, I found "Store."  Good.
  3. Opening the store, was met with "Logos Fundamentals."  What?  I already own everything in that plus a good deal more.
  4. I glanced around for a Search box, magnifying glass, something.  I found nothing.
  5. I scrolled to the very bottom, baffled. No way to search anywhere obvious. Should I give up?  Not I! 
  6. Taking a quick long shot, I expanded "All Resources." Aha!  A search field!
  7. I typed compassion.  No results. Should I give up?  Not I! 
  8. I must have done something wrong. Maybe All Resources somehow wasn't really from the store. Maybe I somehow ended up in Advert-ville. I hunted here and there for another way to the real store.  Should I give up?  Not I! 
  9. Undaunted, I went to the home page.  Hunted here and there, and finally clicked the Settings Gear. Yes! I see "Store!"  Confident I might have a better store experience, I clicked the Store. Absolutely nothing happened.  Then I remembered that I was editing Sections on the Home page.  My dumb.  However, I did add "Store" to my Home Page.
  10. I clicked store from the home page.  To know more about this new store experience goto #3 above, elseif you don't want to know more, then continue.
  11. I gave up on the mobile app store and opened the store on my PC.  The website worked great!

Short version:

1. Searching the store on my phone is a pain to use, and results returned are a fraction of what is available. 

2. Why?

3. Suggestion.  Add a magnifying glass to the top left of the main store screen.
