Suggested changes and something's going back to the way they were

1. Under Settings, would you please consider changing BIBLE TEXT ONLY so that we can choose to turn it on for all versions of the Bible at one time and not individually? I like showing the chapter and verse numbers and one verse per line. I am reading Romans 8 for 30 days in different versions of the Bible and I keep having to change it. PLUS, it took forever for me to even find out where it was even located to make the change. Why is it even hidden to make that change? It would be even nicer if every version of the Bible was that way but then someone has to choose in reverse if they didn't want chapter and verse to be shown!!
2. I don't know what is going on but I normally read out of the English Standard Version and every time I open up the app, I am having to open up the ESV again so for some reason it is not holding it in place because I never close it so could you please check and see why it won't keep its hold on open? I normally keep 7 or 8 Bibles open at a time and then mark the A, B or C symbol at the top so all I have to do is slide to another version if I want to see how it reads.
3. Is it possible for you to go into my personal app and remove ALL of the Inductive/Precept Symbols for God and Jesus Christ and Christ Jesus and any other shortened form of that Name? I WAS HOPING THERE IS A WAY FOR Y'ALL TO DO A GLOBAL DELETE ACROSS ALL VERSIONS OF THE BIBLE ONLY FOR THOSE TWO SYMBOLS. I used to highlight all of those and then it got to the point where I only wanted to highlight certain words or repetitive words and it is getting to be a lot to have to remove those words individually because I realized they didn't need to be highlighted because they are the point of the whole Gospel. It would sure help a lot if you could do across all versions of the Bible in this app FOR THOSE TWO ONLY? But please do not delete symbols for the Spirit or Holy Spirit.
4. For some reason, the trash can is hidden too many times. Now it has that style that I want to delete in a box preceded by the verse. So, I have to click on the 3 vertical dots but it takes too many steps to delete symbols. It takes 3 steps and it doesn't even close it when it is deleted. It takes a third step to close it after 2 steps to delete the symbol. It is entirely too many steps that USED TO BE SO SIMPLE when the trash can was always there. But you would have to figure out what symbols in that lineup to remove because of me there are too many in that lineup.
5. And Romans 8:14 I looked up the word LED in Vine's.... The Blue letter Bible is very specific but y'all put every conceivable meaning of the word in a verse so it's too hard to figure out the definition the way y'all do it. Is there any way that y'all could rearrange Vine's and only show the definition for that one verse?
6. When I use Additional Styles, whatever form that is, Logos has added too many symbols to the main screen before having to tap Additional Styles! 1st, if it is something I have already selected, there seems to be one too many in that lineup screen and so I end up having to slide to the right most of the time because the last style I used is hidden because there are too many in that lineup. I wish you would remove all of the Highlights at the end or do something so it can go back to the way it used to be so we don't have to slide to the right to see the last symbol used that is now hidden? I don't know what specifically it is, I only know that I didn't used to have this problem of the last style I used being hidden, but it is now. And of course the last style used is always on the far left.
7. Is there any way that if we add notes in one version of the Bible that you have a way to allow us to easily choose to add all the notes in other versions? It takes too long to do them one by one.
8. I probably would have had some more comments but it detracts from my Bible study to keep having to stop to make a note about a suggested change to tell you about, as I did above, as I am reading or even to delete a style when there are so many.
I apologize for this being so long but it's easier to do it all at once as I am seeing these things.
I hope to hear back from you about what you will consider doing or what you want, especially about permanently showing the trash can again and not having to delete symbols at the other place anymore.
9. I knew there was something else and I remember now. And I'm not sure I know exactly how to say it until I see it again but up at the very top where it shows the version Bible and the book, chapter and verse there is something up there that I need to do that keeps being hidden. I think it is when I delete a symbol and there used to be a DONE at the top to click on to finish but now it is hidden and it took me forever forever to figure out why I couldn't see it anymore. So now that is something else that y'all have chosen to take additional steps instead of leaving it the way it was where we could always see DONE when we were finished. SO I hope you will consider putting that back the way it was. Just somehow the way y'all have reformatted everything you seem to have forgotten how many extra steps you are placing on us and it is just to the point where it is burdensome and frustrating.
Thank you very much for your consideration. I apologize for being so detailed but I don't know how else to make my point.
I kind of think that the changes I am asking doesn't matter whether it's on my computer or a tablet or my smartphone.

Hi Rhea. Thank you for your feedback. I understand the ease of putting all of your feedback into one post, but this may hinder others from voting, since the post is not specific to one feature request. You're welcome to split this post out to multiple requests if you'd like. Or, you can vote on other posts. There are a few of your points that I would like to help you with. They are as follows and in accordance with your numbering
2. If possible could you take a screenshot of the issue? After taking the screenshot , please open the Help menu and tap "Report a Problem" then attach the screenshot to the email so we can take a further look. Thank you for your patience!
4. We have reverted these changes in the next release. You'll get this update in a couple weeks.
6. I will look into the highlight styles issue. You should be seeing your last used highlight style at the front (far left) of the list. This should be updating every time you create a new highlight.
