    Would be great!
  • +1 to the count of those who would love this capability
  • I would absolutely use Personal Books if they could be accessed in the mobile apps as well
  • This would be an effective way for missionaries to add local translations without needing Logos to add each one to the library. Many translators would be happy!
  • As an apologist, I need to be able to use my previously created files to work in the Logos environment. Can we have this as a paid feature? I'd pay to have this ability to import word files or books in.
  • @Alister Rebelo   I am checking out other Apps and Blue Letter Bible functionality with notes is way better. I love you guys but I cant see how I can remain on this platform much longer. You need to up your game, improve anchors to show all text, more Bible versions like ISV, RSVCE etc.
  • Yes, this would be nice.  Received a new tablet and my PB's were missing.  Please make this available. 
  • Can we revisit this? Still very much a requirement.
  • This would be extremely useful for anyone who teaches using an iPad.

    will love it
  • Essential: printed font of Daily Light is too small for my old eyes. Logos version of the book is woefully inadequate. My product needed on mobile app for visitation of the elderly. Please, just do it!
  • I really would like to have access to my personal books on my mobile devices. Please. Why isn't it possible????

    Implementation is way too slow, this idea is more than 3 years old.

    This is still not available? When I go here: https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015926452 the instructions say that I can "Upload" my personal book to a Faithlife Server: "When the build has finished successfully, you can upload your book to Faithlife's servers. This makes it accessible on all of your devices without having to rebuild it." But, no matter how or where I search, it is only on my desktop app.


    I would think that this is not a terribly difficult modification. PLEASE make this upgrade. We've been asking for this since Personal Books first became an option.


    THank you!

    Yes!!
  • Absolutely.  It is so frustrating that we can't read our personal books on the mobile app. Please, please, please....

    If I create a personal book on my desktop app, I am not able to see it on my laptop app or on the web app. Please allow personal books to be cloud based so that they are accessible from all Logos app's.

    Merging this into https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-mobile-app/posts/allow-us-to-use-our-personal-books-on-the-mobile-app.

    You can also vote for https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-web-app/posts/expose-personal-books-on-web-app (or https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-web-app/posts/add-personal-books-tool-to-the-web-app).
  • @Daniel Wurzberg  Yes, that is one of the main reasons to have this feature in Mobile Logos. I agree with you.
  • @Rosie Perera  Yes Rosie, you are right. It should be reconsidered once more, if there is any chance to make Personal Books available on Mobile platform. Thank you for your voice in the matter.
  • I so much agree with everyone here.  Mobile devices revolutionize someone’s ready ability, particularly people who are very mobile and read fast. This feature seems so logical and could be vital. Logos has made all aspects of accessibility to good scholarship so basic that it seems adding this could only help the mission.

    I'm taking this necropost and saying this is an ABSOLUTE NECESSITY in todays age. Given all the work many of us are putting in to building and creating I travel so much that this is an essential for me. It cuts me off at the proverbial knees in many aspects to not have this available. Please make this available.
  • I tried using personal books to collate useful blog posts etc but they aren’t portable so no use. Currently i have to copy into notes if I want to use info in Logos ecosystem.  I would be happy if personal books can exist in Onedrive, if Logos saving the books on their servers is an issue
  • I share the opinion with the other contributors: Personal books shared over all devices would be a more than helpful feature, as working with mobile devices is the new standard. Even the library of Logos is huge, it is far from exhaustive and will never contain documents from user selected sources.
  • Yes please!
  • essentially for someone who’s first language isn’t english… please!!!

    don't use this but, ok with it.
  • The current status of this is: 'need your opinion'.
    Seeing all responses and votes.... our opinion seems clear enough.

    I just started to use PB's. To memorize bibleverses with changed translation so it better corresponds with the Greek/Hebrew original text.

    To use logos we pay a lot of money.... 
    If PB's are used on copyrighted material, is anyones own responsibility (to God).
    Logos also provides their software to false-teachings like mormon or jehova-witnesses. So why such a high moral standard on preserving copyright?
    Most uses will be for own material.... So please add this feature!!

    As a programmer I bet, it is even NOT difficult to implement..... 
    Just convert PB's to a normal books in the library.... and everything will work out of the box!
