Logos 11
We are less than a year and a half from the expected release of Logos 11, probably on October 7th or 14th, 2024.
What would you like to see improved?
One of my dreams is a SEPARATE prioritization tool that is easier to use and more organized.
What are yours?

I don't think we'll see Logos 11 in 2024 - we're currently at Logos 24, and it may be Logos 50 (or Logos L
by then. However, the change to the numbering was made intentionally to uncouple software versions from libraries. This may mean that major library releases won't follow the two-year cycle any longer, but come in other frequencies (maybe yearly?). On the other hand, new software features may come in any release down the road. One feedback item concerning prioritization (and there may be several of them) is currently ranked #13 in most voted for desktop app: https://feedback.faithlife.com/boards/logos-desktop-app/posts/prioritize-resources-by-type (noting, that technically prioritization works on indexes not resource types, and said indexes are exposed in the information tool, but not the library - yet. Simply exposing those in the library and having us prioritize by index would be much more straightforward and also prevent current hickups like prioritizing a bible that contains a tiny glossary and thus stealing the priority of a bible dictionary).
If many people can convince FL of their eagerness to have a changed feature and a workable smart solution, it may even come before end of 2024.
Have joy in the Lord!

I think you're indeed dreaming. 'Easier'? More organized? Not with current staff.
One thing I've learned over the Logosian years, is don't ask for improvements (smiling). Text Comparison, Advanced Timelines, and many more.

They could do that apart from a major version release. I am surprised that they haven't yet as it is a sizable segment of the Body of Christ.

But I assume they will do some major release every two years as they have in the past. They need to so revenue can be generated (not saying that is wrong at all).Macbook Air (2024), Apple M2, 16gb Ram, Mac Sequoia, 1TB storage

Wellll.... I don't know about that. I do know that in L9 there was a major discussion about the search in L9 and how it stunk. FL listened and the earch we have now is definitely much improved over L9....

But I assume they will do some major release every two years as they have in the past. They need to so revenue can be generated (not saying that is wrong at all).My "About Logos" stuff from the program menu shows three iterations: software, feature set, and base package. The software is past 27.x.x now, but the feature set still shows Logos 10, and my base package is lower because I buy resources a la carte and focus on feature packages. So it might be possible to get a major release of Logos 11 Feature Set that may include a package, but still is separate the ongoing software updates.
There are a lot of great suggestions in the Feedback forum, many of which have over 200 votes. I hope those get prioritized! And for everyone here wanting a "prioritization feature" upgrade, there is a request you can upvote here (it's not mine, but I've voted on it).

He’s obviously late to the party and thinks that is actually an improvement, but in reality FL hasn’t been listening. Until they do something about the rudimentary sermon so called “Editor“ which doesn’t “Edit” that much, they haven’t been listening in my book! Here’s proof that nothing has been done to improve the “sermon editor” — https://community.logos.com/forums/t/186839.aspx

I can't understand why the spellcheck is so horrible in the Sermon Editor. Sometimes is won't catch the most simple things, like reversing two letters.

a more useable Atlas.
I'd really like an option to have a static map of the Holy Land, for example, in which I can find various places without jumping from one map to another.
Something like a static base on which the cities, mountains, etc. would overlay UPON DEMAND, and NOT open a new atlas page each time. It would be great to show and remove current national boundaries, too. This would probably need five or more "base" maps, depending on what portion of Scripture one is searching. I'd like it to simply indicate the places as requested. In this way, I could show Bethel and Haran (for example) in one map without guessing which map might (or not) show what I need. I confess that I use internet tools more often because they are faster and give me what I need, and this seems rather silly.0 -
The internet has gotten better, and now with ChatGPT, well...
I am not sure all the enhancement of tags, "value-added" features, and handfuls of Logos gadgets are as essential as they once were. Some definitely are--but those are done. The vast kinds of books being added recently don't need that stuff. And, I don't want them cluttering my Bible study.
I would say make searching that exists easier so the bulk of searches are better, quicker, and more reliable than ChatGPT et. al. Otherwise, the inevitable will happen.
Make the interface snappier.
Provide useful maps that work.
Spend less time on esoteric searches and tools and resources.Don't make Logos a more-expensive Amazon. Keep it doing what it has always done best, digging out reliable information from trustworthy resources. Keep Logos about ministry and do not try to make it a profit-hog. Otherwise, it won't be any of that for long.

I would say the same thing about the timeline. I recently taught through Ezekiel and Daniel, and ended up making timelines by hand in PowerPoint, because I could not find a way to make a simple, focused, attractive timeline in the Logos tool. (And even if I could, I'm not sure I could have easily exported it into my slide deck.)

...digging out reliable information from trustworthy resources.
You have hit on my main concern with the “chatbot” revolution of late. While the future may hold a better experience, I find that I cannot trust the information shared. I do not have these concerns when I do my searching within Logos. The search may take a little bit longer, but I trust the legitimacy of the information found. Instead of a quick answer cobbled together from who knows where, I have specific answers from verifiable resources that I can study and then decide on my own what to take as true — or at least, decide what I would like to study further in seeking truth.
So far, the undertaking Logos has made in incorporating AI appears to stay true to this manner of search and study. It is my hope that Logos continues in this vein.

To stay with the original question... I (me, personally) would like to see...
1. Improvements in Passage Lists... (and before you ask, I'll leave it at that)
2. I hope the "new experimental search" will be more of a help than a "learning function".
3. I think "Cross References" could be broadened in it's scope... and possibility of user being able to have their own "cross reference" file to be incorporated into "Cross References".
4. I would still like to see Logos incorporate "WordSearch ZipScript" into it's Bible Verse Copy.
Edit:
5. I would like to see better tab bar colorization to better denote where the tab bar is in multiple book layouts on screens.

Along with:
1) a Restoration Movement package, and
2) well thought out AI implementation,
I would also like to see the following improvements/additions in Logos 11:
3) Add collapse/expand all to Table of Contents sidebar in resources https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-desktop-app/posts/add-collapse-expand-all-to-table-of-contents-sidebar-in-resources. While this may not be an issue for those who regularly search scripture by typing into the locator bar, those of us that scroll up and down the TOC find it arduous when there are many books of the Bible open and showing each chapter in the TOC.
4) Toggle anchor text for notes in mobile apps https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-mobile-app/posts/toggle-anchor-text-for-notes-in-mobile-apps. “Show full anchor text” can be toggled on and off for notes in the Windows app. An anchor text toggle within the mobile app would be most beneficial for those using the app to read books and keep notes from those books.
5) World English Bible (WEB) Reverse Interlinear https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-data-sets/posts/world-english-bible-web-reverse-interlinear. The World English Bible (WEB) is one of a few translations available in Logos using the Majority Text for the NT. The World English Bible also uses footnotes to share differences between the Majority Text, Textus Receptus and Nestle-Aland/UBS. A reverse interlinear would be very beneficial for Bible study and text comparison.

I would like an option to keep Factbook closed and out of my way.
I do not like your Factbook, Logos. I do not like it at all. It keeps jumping in my way. If I need a fact, I prefer to find it in a resource that I know and trust.
Thankyou , very much.

I am a big note taker and for my part would like to see the notes tool developed so i could have folders with subfolders, with perhaps the option of even more sub folders within them.
I.E. A Perkins folder containing sub folders with what he says on various subjects, rather than having a long list of Perkins notes as I have now.

Agree with just about all of these suggestions.
My top suggestions are:
1) Rolling Notes, Notebooks, all Document types, and Sermon Editor/Builder into one all-inclusive word processor. Similar to Evernote, OneNote, or another note taking app. None of the current functions or systems would be lost, but it would all be rolled into one place with full word processing capabilities. You can do your Sermons, Clippings, Notes, Passage Lists, Canvas, Diagrams, and all Document types from this one word processing suite. You could even write essays now. Full linking, anchoring, and all other ecosystem features that already exist. Maybe name it Documents or Docs. All you'd have to do is open a new Doc and at the top, select Doc type (Sermon, Note, Diagram, etc.), assign a Notebook (if applicable), assign any Tags and you're good to go. If you've ever used Evernote or OneNote, then you know what I'm talking about. Maybe Logos can contract with one of those companies to build it into Logos? There was/is an entry for something like this on the Feedback site. It was a very popular suggestion.
2) Improvement of Search and AI within Logos. Whether we agree with it or not, AI is here and Logos better move quickly on AI or they will lose users. Besides, I shouldn't have to go to the secular internet or chatbot when we invested a lot of money in a 'powerful' faith based software. Ten years isn't going to cut it with this one. Five years would also be too slow. Maybe Logos can contract with an AI company to improve the Search and AI capabilities within Logos? Maybe a company like XAI? Elon Musk has been very faith friendly and against censoring ideas and speech. Regardless, Logos better move quick on this one.
3) We ought to be able to use SHIFT + ARROW KEYS to move the text selection or highlight. AFAIK, we currently can only move the text selection or highlight with the mouse. Correct me if I'm mistaken here. However, this is a basic function on just about all OS's and software.0 -

But, as I mentioned, I don't think it should be yet another separate tool nor should we call it Paper Builder, call it something all inclusive like Documents or Docs.0 -
I would very much like to see AI technology integrated into Logos search capabilities. I.e. I would like to be able to type a sentence like, "give me every instance in my library where fasting is discussed as a topic, rather than just briefly mentioned." I know that there is currently search capabilities such as the Subheadings search that may do something similar, but I feel like there is likely a lot being missed in the search results.
Furthermore, this could also help Logos to sell more resources if this sort of search capability / AI assistant were trained on their store resources as well. If the AI assistant not only pulled up the results to my inquiry from my own library but was also able to tell me what resources that I don't currently own that correspond to my search inquiry, I might be inclined to purchase something that I don't already own.

I, as I am sure others have, have seen and am seeing lots of displeasure, complaints, questions about Search. I'm there also. If there is one single thing that needs to be improved in Logos, in my mind it is the Search and the deleting of Factbook forever.
Having said that... Mark Barnes and crew are working on a "smart search" which is being targeted for vs 32. Dave Hooten pointed this out to me... So we should soon have a better Search. I hope, I hope, I hope!
Good things are coming!! But then, I'm a hopeless optimistic romantic! [8-|]
Edit: Here is the answer Dave Hooten gave... Check Here.

Why delete Factbook? Strange as it may seem, there are some of us who actually like the Factbook or, at the very least, have no problem with it, and for whom deletion would not be an improvement. If you don't like it or have no use for it, it's easy enough to ignore it by (a) not going directly into the Factbook itself and (b) turning off the Factbook tags (for individual resources or for all books). That seems easy enough, or maybe I'm missing something (often, I am!).
Depending on what I'm working on, I can go days and days without encountering Factbook, which leads me to infer that I can probably ignore it forever if I wanted to, and all without desiring that Logos delete it.
Like you, I am excited about the smart search being tested right now, and the summarization functionality as well; I'm really looking forward to these two features.

I say improve search and incorporate that improvement into Factbook. The more I use Factbook, the better I like it... it's been a slow win-over.

I like and use Factbook. If it is no use to you, don't use it. Perhaps FL can create a way to disable it in settings for those who don't like it.
With the vast number of users, FL is not going to please everyone with everything. Granted, things can be improved (search, atlas, etc.), but getting rid of something because a few users don't like it isn't a good strategy for any company.

I like Factbook too and use it more and more. I have advocated for YEARS to let us hid features we know we will never use. For me, and example would be Canvas.
I'd like the ability to clean up my tools and hide some of them.

Yes! It's like playing dodgeball ... it's all over the place. Until you need it. Then, not. Right-click a monograph ... Factbook's lost in space ... dictionaries work, though. Smart little puppies.
I don't see other users need to be impacted ... just optionalize it. Free up space all over the place.
My dislike is actually theological ... it's late 1900s Christianity packaged to look intelligent. Vs spiritual.

Same. I've never understood all the complaints about it getting in the way or popping up constantly. It only comes up when I select it from the toolbar and has never popped up unexpectedly. I've found it to be the most convenient way to start topical studies with all the encyclopedias I have.

Factbook reminds me of Wikipedia circa 2003. Just enough content and links to make it interesting to try it out, but not nearly complete enough to rely on for actually getting stuff done. I know that I'm going to have to do a search anyway, after I see what Factbook has. Most of the time it's easier for me to go straight to the search than to mess with Factbook first.
Now, if Factbook were to expand as rapidly as Wikipedia, in ten years it would be a killer tool. But without crowdsourcing, I don't know how that happens.

I do hope there is more of a focus on RETENTION and STUDY instead of search. We have all of these search tools to find us things that we copy and paste and I feel Logos is set up excellently to pull all of this into a cluttered mess. There is no way to systematize the thought and study we put in after years of searching. Notes and notebooks don't talk to each other. There is no way to physically 'write' in our books like print books, and then take our handwritten notes and tag them and make them searchable. With the power of retrieval, we now need the power of collating thought and right now this is my biggest struggle with Logos. All of the things I gather and study end up in a physical notebook that collates my thoughts. It'd be amazing if Logos would focus more on collating and recording this thought inside of Logos through tactile interaction and feedback like writing in a notebook.

Roll the Factbook over to be a tab on Search results.
Volia! Problem solved.
(At least until AI has made Search so powerful that Factbook is embedded in Search results and therefore unnecessary.)0 -
Returning to the OP's topic... (I'm not interested in Factbook and have never really used it, and don't plan to)
Search only goes as far as the content of your library goes. The same could be said for AI... we've seen how the effectiveness of AI grows exponentially when given access to more databases. My hope for Logos 11 is not necessarily feature-related, but is almost entirely library-related. Yes, let's make search and AI more powerful, but to do so Logos needs to get on-board with Cambridge University Press, Orbis Books, Notre Dame University Press, more from Oxford and Yale, and many other publishers FL has not yet had dealings with. Right now it seems like FL is a front for digital sales of Eerdmans/Baker/Wipf&Stock, rather than being an all-around multi-publisher digital platform. Unfortunately for them, this means commitments to the littler guys too--and rethinking strategies that clearly have not been working with, for example, Abingdon and Cambridge. (Would also love to see the Catholic Biblical Quarterly added to the journals! What a broad and deep journal; would love to see what Search/AI can make with all of that.)

I'd love to see an integration of AI that lets me type in something like Prepare an expository sermon and then it opens things to help me do that starting with reading the scripture, doing word studies, doing background studies, then consulting commentaries, journals and sermons. Finally preparing the sermon itself. At the same time it would open a much better laid out Sermon Editor that customizable.

If my fellow Logosians will indulge me, my number one concern about Logos is that it feels more and more like a walled garden in comparison to new developments in personal knowledge management (PKM) and academic research methodologies. Logos is a very nice garden I must hasten to add, but still very walled. In December I brought this up in the following thread. https://community.logos.com/forums/p/220010/1281052.aspx#1281052
I understand that Logos needs to maintain it's proprietary rights to its platform due to copywrites, but currently even the humble Kindle is more interactive with other platforms like Readwise than Logos is. Some of the elements in Logos are already present, such as the ability to export clippings to RTF format and to create deep system links using the L4 button, they just need to be further developed.
What is possible in the future? Check out this workflow created between Zotero and Obsidian. https://medium.com/@alexandraphelan/an-updated-academic-workflow-zotero-obsidian-cffef080addd I suggest that Logos could be at the forefront of academic studies by thinking creatively about how it can interact with other platforms like Obsidian which is increasingly being used by students working on advanced studies.
The power of Logos is clear, but it can be a force multiplier as I curate content from Podcasts using Snipd, Web Articles and YouTube transcripts using Readwise Reader, clippings from Kindle and annotations/citations from Zotero. It would be cool to not forget about advancements in spaced repetition review in platforms like Readwise and Anki.
On the Logos feedback forum, there are votes for a number of these items - including Readwise support. https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-desktop-app/posts/send-highlights-to-readwise with 226 votes. It is one of the most voted on items its category ranking 5th, but still 'needs your opinion'.
Logos does not need to then be the best at everything. It just needs to be outstanding at being a stand alone product and also interacting with tools that will always be more advanced in research with other types of content.

I like your thinking although my personal interests are more with tools to be integrated into Logos rather than links to external software e.g. sentence diagrammer, English parser, additional concordance features, n-gram usage ... One consideration, however, is that external links are a comparatively high-cost item in maintenance as your software may fail with changes to the external software. It can also be confusing to the less computer-literate user. So, while I support your basic concept, I need to be convinced that its implementation is Logos is well designed rather than thrown together.
