    Without this, I'm not sure I will use the online app unless it is just to read my Bible. Not certainly not for study.

    YES! Having to recreate a layout every time I open the web app to study is SUPER FRUSTRATING. As a Chromebook user, the web app is really my only option.
  • voted yes on it but did discover the entire layout is now in the URL so you can favorite the page and it will create the layout for you each time
  • This is something I desperately need. Without it the web lay out is useless.
  • Yes, please. If the webapp is to be a primary or backup for desktop, it needs to be able to look like desktop. Access to saved layouts is a must.

    While we wait for this, it's worth noting that you can bookmark layouts in your browser
  • Agree. The web app isn't so useful without being able to retrieve all my various desktop layouts. The web app should have the same functionality as the desktop app.

    I generally use the same layout, but at times I wish I'm able to save certain layout that I can come back to
  • I teach several different Bible studies, and the use of Saved Layouts is essential for what I do.  After having an 8 year old laptop "retired itself" I replaced it with a Chromebook for my Bible studies, and am dismayed that the saved layouts function is not present with the online application.


    I prepare and study for those presentations using a desktop, but not having access to those saved layouts that are updated with my notes makes both the Chromebook and the LOGOS web app useless to my purposes.


    Too, when actually conducting the studies, I make copious notes for follow-up the next week.  Those notes and progression updates on the studies also keep track of the scripture we left off on, as they are expository through-a-book type study.  Those notes and updates are crucial.


    I have used LOGOS since version 3 and have purchased several package upgrades through the years, and the fact that perhaps one of the most useful features I have integrated into my teaching preparations is essentially no longer available.


    PLEASE prioritize integration of "Saved Layouts" into the LOGOS web app.

    I use logos on many different devices in the web app and would love to be able to save layouts. It is very frustrating to always have to reopen all my open books. What about just the ability to save layouts in the web app (and not sync with the full software on windows/mac)?

    @FullFaceJosh  That is a nice workaround. Thanks! But still only a workaround. :-) 
  • This is SUCH an important feature! Why is this still not the standard??!
  • Let me reaffirm this is an incredibly important feature!  I would love to see this made available (especially for us Linux users).
  • This would be a great feature!
  • I create saved layouts to gather sets of books that I use for my studies.  Some of these books are added so that I won't forget to investigate them later.  Thus, having to construct my study set manually each time I open the app is counterproductive.  This would really make the web app more usable!

    The Web App desperately needs this.  Even if they did not necessarily match the desktop, and we had to re-create them, we need the ability to save them.

    This already exists. The layout is contained in the URL and if you (or anyone else) opens that same URL, the layout will be opened as it was before. You can save various layouts and even share them with other people (which you can't do on the desktop). See this post for an example:
