Library crowded with unwanted resources

Hello,

For some reason when I'm using Logos on my iPhone 5s or Android Nexus 10 tablet, my Library has ~88 resources which is way more than I've downloaded/purchased - It's mostly stuff I don't want at all with my actual purchases mixed in between.  Is there any way I can clean out or reset my Library so it only has the resources that I actually purchased from Logos?

Another note is the Desktop application is perfectly fine - My Library only shows the resources that I've downloaded/purchased. But it's the iPhone & Android app that has a bunch of other stuff that I don't want.

I have tried uninstalled and re-installing on both devices, to no avail - It still showed all unwanted resources.

Any help is appreciated - Thanks!

    Hi Nick - and welcome to the forums

    What you are seeing is expected behaviour with the apps.

    Logos make some free resources available for the mobile apps which are not available in the desktop environment - hence you don't see them there.

    There is no way to get rid of them but there are a number of ways to remove them from the library display on the mobile devices.

    I would suggest:

    • In the desktop app tag all the resources you have purchased with a "bought" tag (or some other name) - details on tagging are at http://wiki.logos.com/Tagging
    • then in the library on the mobile device enter the string "mytag:bought" (or whatever name you used) in the filter field and you will only see the ones you have selected

    Hope this helps

    Graham

    Thanks for the quick reply.  I just tagged them all and entered that string and it worked great.  Luckily, the search string stays intact even when the app is closed/re-opened, so it will automatically open the Library with my stuff and hide the unwanted stuff.  Wish there was an actual option to hide/remove the "free" resources on mobile devices, but this workaround works fine.

    Thanks for the tip! [Y]

    A number of people have requested this but it's not there at the moment.

    but this workaround works fine.

    Excellent[:)]
