The Android app takes too long to open for users with lots of books and content.

Still love using Logos on mobile but startup time is very long indeed - 9 seconds on Redmi Note 5 Pro (4GB RAM).

My wife and I each have the same model tablet (Samsung SM-T580). I have a large library and LOTS of notes and highlights. She has a small library and no notes or highlights. We both find the app takes a long time to launch (usually between 10 and 30 seconds - sometimes it freezes and we have to relaunch). It has been getting noticeably worse over the past several months. It's as if the app has to call in to mama (Logos servers) before it will let the user access the app. Maybe the order of events for launch could be changed? Or whatever it needs before access can be granted should be resident in the device? Whatever it is, please help the app work more efficiently.

Yes please. And deal with the freezing already mentioned. I use a different Bible app when I just want to look up a verse quickly.

It would be great if the Logos App opened the Bible faster and only then started loading the other resources little by little.

GOD bless you all in your work on developing this application. New…
New Feature: iOS Widgets
Seeing what other apps have done, there are so many more cool possibilities. Tools – Widgets would allow you to open up a specific tool directly with one touch, rather than the 3-5 it currently takes. And to be able to customize which 4-8 are always on top would be nice. Also, see the Google search widget for how you can…
Smart Search Limited to “Conservative” Views
I tried searching for classically liberal views on a particular subject and in the synopsis it said “the classic conservative view is…”. I changed the query to remove the word “classic” and it said it could not provide results. It suggested I try searching with different terms like “contemporary progressive” and it still…
Previous version word search
I much prefer an earlier software version which allowed a user to highlight a word in Scripture and it provided the original language(s) and its meaning.
