I have installed both Vyrso and Logos apps on my Android. Vyrso is billed as a better way to read Logos materials, but I don't see any difference. Does Vyrso contain additional features?

part of the benefit is cheaper and newer books, because they don't have the extensive tagging of usual Logos books--although you will be able to use them on Logos. They will be for dedicated e-reading. I haven't used the vyrso app really, because my wife has the ipod touch. [:O]
Vryso is a stripped down version of the Logos reader (to present a simpler interface to the casual reader). There is no reason to use Vryso if you also use the Logos app (that I can see). They both read the same books, and Logos has more features. The one reason I can see having both is if you wanted to access two different Logos accounts on the same device (like if you and your spouse shared a tablet).
I also think Vyrso will make more sense when the 25,000+ trade books are available for purchase, and we can catch up on all of our Prelapsarian romance novels. I know I'm behind!
Thanks, these comments are helpful. It wasn't clear to me whether the claims were that Vyrso is a better reader than Logos, or better than other brand readers. I will probably uninstall Vyrso as an unnecessary duplication.
Laurie--wish I had the ipod for a quick comparison, but was wondering: is the interface for vyrso maybe a little cleaner (home page, etc) for quick reading launch? Or, is it easier to purchase and download from vyrso--ie, getting vyrso books that may not be advertised on Logos, so that having the vyrso app will allow you quicker access.
I left both apps on Angie's ipod. I'll have to check it out more closely, later.
Good question!
Todd, thanks for your straight-forward explaination. I had seen earlier discussions that were too detailed and confusing but you hit the nail on the head, at least for me -- maybe I'm simpleminded.... [:O]
In any event, I've downloaded Vryso on my iPad to use for supplemnetal reading and I use the Logos app with dual/split screens for more detailed and simultaneous reading of resources.... [8-|]
Don't forget Vyrso is offering a free Android - with one more week to enter the drawing:

Vyrso is a smaller application than Logos. The interface allows footnotes to be selected more easily, and without the distraction of accidentally bringing up a Word Study! - otherwise very similar to Logos for reading. It suits my wife's Galaxy Mini (lower resolution/smaller storage than my S model) very well.
