I own resources in English and German e.g. by Irenaeus, but they appear under differnt names. Is it possible to merge these?
You need to explain what you mean by "merge". e.g. you can relate them by putting them in the same Series or by tagging them.

I would like Logos to decide for one version of an author's name, e.g. "Irenaeus Lugdunensis (140-202)", and assign it to each and all works by this author, so that only this one version shows up in my library containing all of the author's works (see green arrow in the screenshot below taken from an university OPAC).
Other versions of the name could be carried in other data fields (see red arrow in the screenshot below).
Citavi, a third party library program, allows the user to merge names by himself:
I would prefer the first solution (done by Logos), but I would be also happy with the second one (done by the user).

I think a better solution was visible in the older Factbook format and in the handling of Bible book names - the recognition of synonyms via a reference table. Using a fixed name doesn't work well across alphabets and writing systems, Think Asian market.
I like MJ's solution better - and actually Logos uses a unique numerical identifier per author (as can be seen from shop searches) and thus would be able to facilitate that easily.

Sorry, I don't understand. What are you pointing out with "that"?
the merging of different author names under one ID. It would be easy if the ID is a (meaningless and already existing) number and all spellings and variants of the name are just attributes of that ID.
I don't have to remember the file name of the body of a personal book - it is immediately visible. But the cover of the book, which is likely to be used, hides the file name. Please make the file name discoverable. Actual case: I could not find the Friends Society's logo short of scanning the entire file of images to see…
I’d like for my iPad to record an audio of my sermon when I hit start on my timer in a sermon. It would be nice to have a copy of the audio without having to use a different device or app for times my sermons aren’t recorded.
In the iPad app, I would love to have the interlinear on the bottom of my Bible just like on the desktop app.
Allow the Bible slide to input multiple Books, chapters, and or verses in a string between [[]] and add a check box for ;oneverseperslide This will simplify the setup.
I would suggest the following: Allow highlighting …. This would be especially useful when using passage lists to do word studies. One could highlight the original language word and its translation when both are displayed in parallel, facilitating future review. Attach notes to verses in the list with the same capabilities…
