Logos 9 Features

Hello! Is there a plan to have more of the logos desktop features be made available on logos mobile? The number of features on the phone are quite small in comparison. I understand there might be equipment constraints, but I'd love the atlas and the charts etc on mobile.

FL doesn't often provide a roadmap of potential mobile features. They do call the mobile apps "readers," if that indicates anything to you. They are also beefing up the web app, which they seem to be moving towards parity with the desktop app.

My understanding is that the features available on mobile for a given user depends on their package level. For example, Factbook works on mobile, but is only visible if you have the Starter package or above. It would be great if I could find a detailed comparison table that showed which mobile features were available for each package. I might be more inclined to upgrade if I knew what I would gain on mobile (which I use frequently).

Good point. Plus, the platforms are not consistent. I can see Factbook on app.logos.com, but not on mobile (I passed on any L9 stuff). I don't use the Logos tools beyond BWS, but it's an odd combination of access-rights. I'd hate to be in charge of FL Marketing.

This is true, but it is true for desktop as well. I am unaware of features available to users (in a given package) on desktop, but not on mobile (where available, of course). It is my understanding, for example, that Factbook is available (as you say) with Starter. This is true for desktop and mobile.

I'm with you on your desire for the ability to shift and sort and compare. This does not quite do what I would want it to, but it might assist you or others: https://www.logos.com/features

I gave Factbook as an example here because I established with a support rep that for my level (Base) it is available on desktop and web, but to have it on mobile I would have to get at least Starter. Since the main mention of Factbook on their site states that it is available for all packages and platforms, I asked that they amend this to clarify it is only Starter and above for mobile.

One of the features of Starter is that it adds “Mobile features”, so that suggests to me that there are other features which a user may access on desktop or web but not on mobile.

Thanks, that’s helpful, although it doesn’t include Basic or Fundamentals (which my support rep said they don’t really consider to be packages). And some of the features listed are actually available in lower packages. I’d like a really detailed table that shows, for example, for the Library: which packages (and which platforms) support tagging, filtering, collections, etc. I’ve spent quite a lot of time trying to find things or make things work on the web app only to conclude that it isn’t possible (yet) on the web, or on mobile only to discover I need Starter.

Don’t get me wrong: I am hugely impressed by Logos, even at the Basic level, and I’m looking forward to doing demos for friends and colleagues, to blow their minds too!
