I am wondering what it means legacy edition Logos does not sale, Logos 10 gold etc.
Do we have to purchase subscriptions now?

No, you don't need to purchase a subscription.
You can, for various good reasons. But Logos offers the 'legacy' version for those of us who don't need the newest.
It's their guarantee of a free app 'forever' (as they call it). And they update it constantly. Free.
You don’t have to subscribe to have access to your books and a fully functioning software, but you can for some new features and continuous updates. ‘Legacy’ just means the free, non‑subscription Logos app that Faithlife keeps updating. You can still buy books and packages outright (like Logos 10/Gold, etc.), and you can also choose a subscription if you want extra features or content. Legacy is Logos’ way of guaranteeing a free, always‑updated app without requiring a subscription.
I purchased Logos 9 Academic Professional back in 2020. I then purchased the Logos 10 Full Feature Upgrade in 2023. Does the “Legacy Edition” still have all resources and features that I paid for? What is going on?
I would like to say my updates to my Logos 9 legacy 10 features are great!! I Have learned so much and at a faster pace than my fellow brothers who do not have this program.
I do wish they had the same program/App.
I will be purchasing some products books soon. 😁
Yes, everything you have purchased in the past, you still have access to. While you won't have access to some new features that were released after Logos 10, you will always get free basic updates and occasionally even improvements.
Thanks!
I've spent literally thousands of dollars on Logos over 30 years - starting with Logos 2.1 (or 2.0 - I'm not sure).
I HATE subscriptions. I want to own my resources. I'm afraid when I open the app and see it is called "Logos LEGACY Edition" that the promise Logos made to me for so many years is being set up to be broken; that eventually I'll lose access to my books if I don't pay them a monthly fee.
For that reason, I hesitate to buy any more resources. If they do require a monthly fee, as a matter of principle I will refuse. It will feel like going back to the dark ages to lose access to my tools, but I'd rather do that than give them another dollar in that scenario.
They are still making that promise and there has been no indication whatsoever that they might break it.
No one is taking your resources or making you subscribe. There is a free version that you can utilize with all your purchased resources and features that came from L10 and prior.
I highly recommend that Logos makes the subscriptions optional. They should allow us to choose between subscribing and buying the features of the program.
As much as I agree, not trying to be excessively snarky, but not much to buy. That may be by design I suppose.

I just signed up I have 30 day to kick the tires of Logos Pro. The AI search bar first thing it said was How can I know I am a Christian? I typed that in and it bring up a bunch of Bible verses. is that the big deal? I can seach using the passage or topic and find the same thing. Is there something I am not getting? Is…
I would have sworn that at one time I had insights and translations showed as 2 tabs in the same sidebar but now I cannot tab between them, if I open one it closes the other … which makes switching between them a multistep process. I, personally, consider this an unacceptable design/regression but don't know how others…

After a recent windows 11 update, and Logos application update, the behavior of ref.ly links changed so that the web app is being displayed in addition to the the desktop app. I checked the "Apps for websites" system setting and there isn't an entry for Logos. I ran the script on the forum that edits the registry to fix…
Wanting the full text to show in my notes of my scripture anchors. To me there’s isn’t any rhyme or reason as to when it shows full text vs just the reference. I have tried every which way but sideways and can’t for the life of me find a way for the full text to show consistently. I select/highlight exactly the same way…
