What items require internet? Going offline for awhile potentially

I usually use desktop. I noticed when we had an internet outage, my Mobile Ed videos stopped. I was wondering if there were any other features that don't work offline. Is my library tied to the internet? I don't really know how this works, I just downloaded it a long time ago.

    There are some features that can only be accessed online.  There is a list somewhere that I'm sure someone will post a link to.  If I remember correctly, you can download your video courses so they will play offline. 

    I personally, do not like being tied to the Internet for a program to run.  Thankfully, most of what Logos offers and everything I use it for can be accessed offline.  I suspect that Logos will always make sure that most of their program has the ability to function independently of the Internet so missionaries who do not have reliable internet will be able to use it too.

    Yes. But not most of them.

    No. Resources you have already downloaded will work just fine without the Internet. The MobileEd videos you were watching stopped working because you were streaming them. If you download them all, they will still work offline.

    It's in the wiki: https://wiki.logos.com/Logos_9_Online_Only_Features - if someone isn't online: search the Logos/Verbum help for "Net".
