Features a la carte?

Hello,

I want the Read Aloud feature of Logos 10. Is there a way to purchase just that one feature without purchasing a whole $400+ package? In the itemized breakdown of the Bronze upgrade, the Read Aloud feature is listed as being worth $20. I would love to pay $20 for this feature. I already purchased a Silver package several years ago, and I really don't want to have to buy another package just for this one feature. Ultimately, if Logos won't allow this purchase, I will figure out a way to jerry rig the Accessibility features of my devices to read books to me, but I'd prefer to support and use Logos's own features if I am able to.

If anyone has any tips on this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Kyle

P.S. And in case anyone asks, yes, I did a search through these forums for this question, but it hasn't been brought up that I can see in several years, so I figured it was worth asking again.

    Hi Kyle - and welcome to the forums

    I don't believe so. As far as I can see, it is not an item that is listed as a standalone-purchase option on the website unlike some of the items included in feature upgrades.

    But the only way to get a definitive answer would be to contact Logos directly - contact details at https://www.logos.com/contact - as most people on these forums are other Logos customers with no inside information on this type of question.

    Hi Kyle - and welcome to the forums

    Hi Graham, thank you for your thoughts and direction. I actually did reach out through Logos' contact form, but I haven't received a reply yet, which is why I decided to try here. I realize it's a bit of a shot in the dark unless a Logos employee happened upon the thread, but I wasn't sure what else to try.

    I appreciate your reply!

    Yes, this is actually my exact plan if the Logos feature doesn't pan out. It does work, but it has just enough jank that I thought an app-made feature might be a nice quality-of-life improvement Thank you so much!
