    Hi Vivian! Welcome to the forums! [:)]

    Can you explain more about what you are trying to do? Are you wanting to read Logos resources on a Kindle Device? If so, what kind of device? Is it a Kindle Fire or other?

    That's the good news. There is an android app which works with the Fire. [:)] If you don't get the help you need in this thread, I suggest reposting in the Andriod Forum. I am a Mac and iOS user, and have no experience with Andriod/Kindle Fire. Sorry. [:S]

    The mobile apps, including the one which works with the Kindle Fire, are not the same as L4 or L5… but they are good apps and are getting better. You can read, highlight, take notes, etc. There are some other features, such as word studies, which are also available online only. I think you will find much of your library is accessible on the mobile app, but not all. It is Logos policy to make as many of your resources available to you on as many platforms as possible… but the licensing agreements with publishers sometimes doesn't allow mobile use. On the old website, there used to be symbols on each resource page to tell you if it was mobile enabled. I think Logos is working to bring that back.

    On your Kindle, you should have an icon for the Amazon app store. It might just say amazon apps or similar. Tap that to load the app store, then search for logos. It should be a free download. Once you have it installed, tap the logos icon and then sign in with your normal logos account info. You should now have access to a good portion of your library. Note that if you hit the info icon next to a particular resource, many of them can be downloaded to make them available for offline use--I do this mainly for the resources I want to use when I dont have internet, which is mainly in church, so I've downloaded a dictionary, a couple different translations, and a smaller commentary set.
