Thank you very much for the daily reading in new beta.  But the date being used is server date, while I live in Russia and my device clock is different.

BTW, how to configure the list of devotionals, to select other resources than the three suggested ones?

    Can't help you with the date problem. 

    But I can with the devotionals: Use Prioritize Resources from the Library Window of Logos 4 on your computer in order to prioritize your devotionals. If you want to see what devotionals you have search type:devotional in the Library window. Then prioritize the top 3. I wish that it would let you do more than 3 but it won't.

    I note they are not the same as appear on my Home Page, except for the first. I get:

    • Morning and Evening
    • Thoughts for the Quiet Hour
    • The Christian's Secret of a Holy Life

    What are yours?

    Morning and Evening
    Thoughts for the Quiet Hour
    The Christian's Secret of a Holy Life

    Yes, I have these same three on home page in Android.

    Use Prioritize Resources from the Library

    Thanks, Jacob, I had some thoughts about this, but haven't test yet.

    If you go out of the Logos app and back in, does it refresh to the correct date? Does turning your device completely off and back on make a difference?

    No, it doesn't help.

    I turned off the device and turned it on now.  It's 21:19 Moscow time (GMT+4), but it opens to Morning reading of Sep 8.

    It's not a "last read" place, because in the morning I read through this part.

    I guess the programmers could get device date/time and pass as a query variable before loading the devotional resource.

    Thank you for checking. I changed the time zone on an Android device here to Moscow time, which changed the date to Sep 9, and my devotionals are opening to Sep 8 as well. In checking our bug database, I see now that Hunter submitted a report on this to development yesterday.

    Timothy,

    I know this does not help with your problem but I was wondering where you find the daily reading in the Android App?  Do you need to make one in L4 for it to show up in the Android App or can you create one in the App?  Thank you and Lord bless!

    Scott, please update Logos from Market, or download the newest file from Logos.com, if you don't have the Market in your device.

    Then daily readings will be seen in the home screen.
