On my Fire tablet (HD10-11th Gen, Fire OS 7.3.2.4), using text-to-speech narration, the text doesn't advance with the reading as it does with my Android 12 phone. It works fine with the human-narrated ESV & LEB.

In a different bug, sometimes the Read Aloud icon disappears, along with the resource menu kebab, and I can't get them back by tapping the resource title bar. I'm not sure what the circumstances are at the time of the elopement; I just happen to notice they're gone. If I swipe to another resource, they're gone there also.

    Hi Robert, are you seeing this issue with every resource or just specific ones? Can you please provide the name of one of those resources? I will write up a case for our team to investigate.

    Thanks.

    The problem is found on every text-to-speech narrated resource I tried. Here is the list I tested before concluding it was probably universal:

    The New Testament: An Expanded Translation - Wuest; ESV Study Bible; Reformation Heritage Study Bible; Reina-Valera Bible 1960; Louis Segond Bible; Biblia de estudio MacArthur.

    Just for fun, I tried a non-Bible indexed resource, The Founders Journal 077, and it also did not advance with the narration.

    The second bug (the shy icon) did not happen during these latest tests.

    I note that I have received an update to Version 10.0.3, but the scrolling issue is still there. I am assuming that problem is still being addressed.

    Thanks.

    this is still being worked on.

    FYI, I have updated to 10.1.1 (Build 1001010790); still my Fire tablet gently weeps.

    Wowzer! No one wanted any of these steps to be easy, I guess.

    • Logos Version:  10.1.1 (Build 1001010790)
    • Device:  HD10-11th Gen, Fire OS 7.3.2.6; known in Logos as 'Robert's Tablet'
    • Steps taken:
      • Tap speaker icon
      • Voice reads
      • Text doesn't advance
      • When finished, either tap speaker icon again or tap Pause button and close player window.
    • See screenshot below. I couldn't do a screen video (my decoder ring is broken and my copy of the I Ching is missing a few pages).
    • I sent the logs, referenced to this thread (I can't live in a world where I would have to type all of this into a tablet).

    The disappearing icon issue happens infrequently, so I am unable to report much on it.

    Thanks.
