I just loaded the iPhone Logos app but can't see where to logoff the app at. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Bob,
To close the app simply press the Home button on your iPhone.
To Log out of your account, well you used to be able to do it from the More menu at bottom, but that option doesn't seem to be there any longer.... good question, I don't normally log off, i have a pass code set on my phone....can see it would be a problem if two different people using a share device, say iPad, and had different accounts...
It used to be that when you logged out. the app would discard all downloaded resources. Remember the license is linked to your login, and from recent comments about how Logos stores files in iOS, they are currently in a "cache" area. They did not survive the iOS 4.x to 5.0 upgrade.
Bob - FIrst, welcome to the forums!
The question I would ask of you is why would you want/need to log off the app? An iPhone is designed for one user. Logos is designed for one user. I fail to see why anyone would need to log off!
If there is someone else in your family with a logos account, they can use biblia.com on your iPhone.
I understand this is a free app and it's a blessing to have it.
The choice to do so is one reason.
What if you have only one iPhone and a spouse would like to have access. Shouldn't have to go elsewhere.
While logged in, how much resources is it using against the battery time?
Blessings,
Thanks for the info. I was looking to purchase one of the library packages. Is the purchased packages access based on your login account to the license as well?
There is one other option that I didn't think of. You can download both the Vyrso and Logos apps. Your wife could use one, and you could use the other. Here are some scenarios:

Of course...that explains why its not there anymore thanks Jim

I didn't catch this before, or understand what you meant until now (I think [:)]). Are you asking how much battery does the app use when Logged in but not being used? As Mike replied, "none." The state of being "logged in" is one of being credentialed. It does NOT mean that the app is frantically using the internet to maintain a connection. Also, you should be aware that all programs on iOS work in a sort of "hibernation" when not active (open). This allows for quicker loading of apps.
If you change your login on logos you would want to log out of the app on the iPad to be able to log back in with your updated username. if you don't do this your reading lists won't update properly.
Hi Timothy! Welcome to the forums. [:)]
There isn't really a reason to log out of the app… but you are right that there is a reason to need the ability to update your credentials. If there were a "log out" feature, all of the downloaded resources would be removed by necessity during that process.
I have two accounts with Logos (happened somewhere along the upgrade or crossover process way back I think). Anyway, I switched accounts by deleting the app completely and reinstalling it (took all of 3 minutes).
If you call customer service they can merge your accounts together.

Uninstall the app, then reinstall and login with the credentials you want to use.
This Log was very useful to me. But I want to answer the Question...
why would you want/need to log off the app?
For me, somehow, I have two sign-in credentials. One has no resources available, while my other has all my resources. I have tried many times to have Logos delete one, but to no avail. So now, If I login under the wrong credentials, which happens to be the correct credentials with other non-logos accounts, I am stuck. (Which I have been for a few weeks.)
However, now I know I just need to delete and reload the app. As you can see this has not been a priority for me, as I don't usually use my phone for study, but now, I will fix it today. Thanks.
