Number of commentaries are inconsistent

I recently noticed that the number of commentaries don't line up between what is advertised, Mobile app, and desktop.

On logos.com it says for the standard collectors edition there are 1922

On desktop in the library it says 2039

On mobile it says 879

I realize that it's possible the desktop shows more than advertised because I may have purchased some additional, but why is the mobile app so lacking? Should it not have access to the entire library?

Thanks!

Yes - you should have access to all the commentaries you have purchased on both desktop and mobile. (Technically, there are a few resources that are not available on mobile but that wouldn't explain the discrepancy you are seeing)

Please post a screenshot showing what you see on mobile.

The count on my iPad is only what I've downloaded to the device.

OK, contrary to the evidence at hand, I don't consider myself to be a big dummy. A small one for sure 🤣🤣

It is now reading the correct number. I don't know why. I possibly had other filters selected earlier.

I guess a side question... What is your favorite commentary that covers the whole Bible? I always seem to gravitate towards the same stuff. Trying to expand a bit.

The ESV Study Bible is my favourite on mobile (it can be used with commentaries), but The Bible Knowledge Commentary is my #1 on desktop.

I like the New Bible Commentary. The BKC is good too.

That's strange

Assuming your iPad is online, and you don't have any filters set in the Library panel, the library should show all commentaries available on the device whether downloaded or not.

You're right, I didn't notice that. I was checking it offline.
