Any success creating new reading plan?

Josh Neighbors

I know that reading plans are a known issue on mobile. But I wonder if anyone has had any success creating a new reading plan recently? 

If so, I'd like to duplicate your step-by-step process. 

I've made at least a half-dozen attempts to create a reading plan that will at least show up on my mobile device, and they've all been unsuccessful. I've even  tried editing completed reading plans (that worked from previous versions of logos mobile app) to new references and dates. No luck. 

And I know that there is a Desktop beta that when released as a stable upgrade with sync version 2 that it will make all our notes, highlighting, and reading list dreams come true. I know that it is also immenent. And that there is an upgrade for the mobile app in the app store, pending the desktop upgrade. But on the chance that we won't see these upgrades in stable form until June, has anyone figured any workarounds for a successful reading plan creation?

Hi Josh

Thanks for your post.

Sorry, but I don't know of any workrounds to get a reading plan working on the iPad until we get the updated software in Logos 4 and the iOS app.

Currently reading plan creation in the iOS app reminds me of an old joke about Ford Model-T's: you can have any color you want as long as it is black (only one option). 

If delete all reading plans in an iOS device by single swipe to the left on reading plan line so delete button appears, then tap delete.  A new reading plan "Read the Bible in a Year" is created that starts in Genesis using your preferred Bible.  Trying to delete the default plan is not possible until more reading plans sync to device (possibly additional copies of default created plan, which seems a bit buggy and correlated to how often reading plan is downloaded to iOS device)

Annoyance factors: many reading plans appeared on iPad (app version 1.8.3) so have deleted all but one, which I have used to mark couple sessions as finished reading.  The iOS 5 notification about reading plan has many messages daily, one message would be sufficient.

Keep Smiling [:)]

A convoluted but workable scheme is to export the reading plan to ical (using your mac) and use ical on the iPhone/ipad to show you the reading/s for the day.
