How does the Free Edition work now?

I noticed that when I updated my test account to v23 that "Verbum Free Edition" was added to that account's order history and additional items were added to my library. However, when I clicked on the link to the Free Edition in my order history there is no product page. Will there be product pages for the Free Editions of Verbum and Logos at some point so we can see what's in them (books and features)?

It might be nice to have a forum post summarizing how the Free Editions work now.

Also, is Fundamentals no more? The Free Edition seems to have a few more features (e.g. Biblical Referents Data Set). Not complaining about this. Just asking.

Hi Kiyah!

Verbum Free Edition replaces "Verbum Basic". We’ve made getting the latest updates to Verbum easier by removing the requirement to checkout with Verbum Basic every couple of years to get the latest updates. Instead, we’re delivering them automatically to all your Verbum apps (desktop, web, and mobile). Since it is delivered automatically, there is no product page, but you can see what's in the free edition here: https://verbum.com/free-edition

Logos Free Edition works in the exact same way, and you can read about that here: https://logos.com/free-edition.

Fundamentals remains available: https://verbum.com/product/204593/verbum-9-fundamentals and https://www.logos.com/product/195714/logos-9-fundamentals

The support article at https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023029051-Get-started-with-the-free-Logos-app has:

Note: If you already have Logos 9 downloaded, you do need to make sure that you have automatic updates turned on for the free version to automatically unlock. If you have Logos 8 or earlier, Logos will not automatically update to the new version. Instead, you'll need to download the installer from logos.com.

Keep Smiling 4 Jesus :)

Does your computer meet the minimum system requirements for 23 ?

Yes, it does, KSFJ.

I could buy a Logos 9 expansion library of $34. Would this automatically give me Logos 9??

Good point - sorry I didn't check that

I have flagged it to the team who produced the article, hopefully it will get resolved soon

EDIT: And I believe the correct link is to https://www.logos.com/install

No - the expansion libraries provide resources but not the Logos 9 engine or features.

Logos Free Edition has "Get the free app" => Desktop version 23 installer download (no purchase needed for software upgrade)
