I'm an advanced Logos user who's trying to get some guys into an Advent reading plan using Faithlife this season.

I created a group, sent invites to emails, and for the guys that are in - it's not very easy to focus on some key "studying together" things:

A) See the reading plan as a whole by default (What is today's? Yesterdays?) Or the ability for the group to see each member as they check off what readings they've done. What could help with that is my second point coming up

B) Push Notification!! This is the gold standard in Mobile Devices today: Someone adds a prayer request? Someone comments on the reading for today? This can keep it quite alive when you see your friend doing something with the readings/etc.

These are a couple things running in my head as I'm using this with friends.

    Adam -

    Thanks so much for your feedback! We're always looking for insights on how to make Faithlife a more effective tool for our users. Now that you've had a little more time using it, are there any other enhancements or changes you might like to see?

    Yes! Thank you for your response. I apologize for my delay in response. I would like to see on the website or mobile a way to "un-click" an affirmation for a post if you accidentally chose the wrong affirmation.  Small, but effective if needed.

    Yeah, again with the notifications, if the app or web pushed an email notification for readings "Here's your Reading for Today! Get started here:..." or on your mobile device the link takes you right to the app- (Could it go straight to Logos app if Faithlife app is not installed?)

    This would be awesome- though I have a lot of respect in the fact that this probably is some consuming work to put in.  Apps/Server based goodies take time. But the payoff on this would be great I imagine.

    I could also add really quickly- if there were a "build your own Reading Plan" tool- it would be excellent to use here

    For example: if your church is going through Romans or even has a challenge to read the Bible and lays out a plan for each day for say...30 days- you could plug those readings in to your "Church" plan and it be good to go throughout Logos Bible Software/Faithlife.
