Text Comparison: Easily pick versions to compare

I need to be able to easily list (and limit) the bible versions that I wish to compare on a given Bible verse - For example, I may desire to compare the ASV and RSV (and only those two versions) to the KJV (the “top Bible” version) on a given verse. As the Text Comparison feature now stands it is not possible to limit the number of versions being compared - and lining up the order of versions is cumbersome and time consuming.

    On the Android app, one can currently only compare translations among a set of default bibles. It would be very helpful to be able to set which translations are being compared from owned bibles.

    On the mobile app, I would love a way of designating what translations are to be presented when I do a text comparison on a verse. There are some extra translations I have bought and they do not come up when I do a text comparison. Even if it didn't break down the percentage difference I would still like to see the alternative translation that are paid for.

    Good morning. Are you talking about an opportunity other than selecting Prioritize Resources such as Bibles?

    When we use the compare verses feature for instance to compare a verse into different bible versions we can not select which version to compare a large list is present and it difficult to reaf and compare just 2 or 3 instead a full list

    Hi @Elis Ricardo M Campello  . You should be able to change which versions are used by clicking the three dots at the top right of your screen. You'll be able to choose your Top Bibles, or any Bible collection. You can't create collections on mobile, but if you also use Logos on Mac or Windows, you can create collections there and then use them on Mobile.

    Es wäre wünschenswert wenn die mobile App , bei der Funktion Textvergleich die verschiedenen Übersetzungen bzw Bibel auswählen könnte. (It would be desirable if the mobile app could select the different translations or bibles in the text comparison function.)

    Please add this feature. On Android, you can't select or filter which bibles show up in text comparison, making the feature not very helpful.

    I went through the guide to prioritize translations in the desktop app, but it does nothing to limit the text compare feature on the iPhone. I still get 9 results for each verse. It mixes in Spanish resources and includes both the verse by verse and the paragraph formatted NASB in the results. This is messy.
    Being able to switch between a vertical and horizontal layout would be nice also. Two columns would easily fit side by side on a typical phone screen.

    In der mobilen Version kann man die Bibelausgaben, deren Text man vergleichen will, weder auswählen noch sortieren. Das sollte geändert werden.
