Read Books on Logos Web via Kindle Browser

The Amazon's Kindle has an experimental browser through which you can access some simple websites. You can even access the Faithlife website "biblia.com", log in with your faithlife/logos account and access the library and books to read. However, it does not have an option to enlarge the font to make reading easier. Even so, it is possible to read Kindle books.
My suggestion is that Faithlife see with the team of programmers a way to adapt the sites "biblia.com" or "app.logos.com" (or even create a specific site) so that we can read the books of Logos/Verbum/ etc in the Kindle's built-in browser. The benefit of this is that we will be able to read on an e-ink screen that does not strain the eyes like a cell phone screen.
The site's features could be fully adapted to provide basic logo functions. For example:
1) home page with larger icons for easier access and login;
2) library option to locate Logos books;
3) easy option to enlarge the book letters;
4) maybe even a basic option of underlining and marking the books;
These functions alone would be enough to allow us to read the Logos account books in the Kindle browser. Please study this possibility. It seems quite viable since, even precariously, it is possible to read the books on the website "biblia.com".

I think once it's implemented, It'll be a very good thing.

I think this is an excellent idea!

It would be particularly useful if it would allow highlighting. This was a limitation with the discontinued SendToKindle feature.

This would encourage us to read more and longer as e-ink screen is easier on the eyes. Please consider.

I quite agree with you, Anderson

Great idea; I would much rather read my Logos/Faithlife books on my Kindle!

An important note: with a little effort it is already possible to read the Logos books by accessing the website biblia.com through the Kindle browser. Just log in with your account. The bad thing is that the font is a little small, but you can read the whole book if you have patience.

Yes!

@Harold Curtis Thanks. Help spread this suggestion, because it has few views.

The idea of the suggestion is merely to be able to read the Logos books through the Kindle device, not the other way around. The purpose is to make the most of our own reading books (not the reference and consultation ones) to read longer books more comfortably.

This is a great idea.

@Harry Hahne I also think it would be an incentive for us to read more of the Logos books, having more visual comfort. But currently I have only used it for reference book research. Until today, after 10 years of Logos, I have never read a whole book due to the discomfort of reading on LCD screens. Help spread this suggestion, because it has few views.

Thank you for the guide! I recently purchased a book with more than 1000 pages, and reading it on a monitor screen or cellphone has been quite exhausting. However, with your helpful guide, I now have the means to comfortably read it on my Kindle.

@Norberto Campos , I'm glad the guide was helpful. Let's try to share the link to this suggestion with other users, maybe if there are lots of votes the Logos team will improve the accessibility and usability of the site via the Kindle browser.

[PT] O Kindle da Amazon tem um browser experimental através do qual é possível acessar alguns sites que não sejam complexos ou pesados demais.

Ele pode mesmo acessar o domínio da Faithlife "biblia.com", fazer o login com a sua conta Faithlife/Logos e acessar a biblioteca e abrir os livros para ler no navegador do Kindle.

No entanto, acessando o site pelo Kindle não há a opção de aumentar a fonte para facilitar a leitura. Mesmo assim, ainda é possível ler livros do Logos no navegador Kindle com um pouco de esforço e boa visão.

A minha sugestão é que a Faithlife veja com a equipa de programadores uma forma de adaptar os sites "biblia.com" ou "app.logos.com" ou, quem sabe, até mesmo criar um site específico mais simples para isso.

As características do site poderiam ser totalmente adaptadas apenas para fornecer funções básicas de leitura. Por exemplo:

1) página inicial com ícones maiores para facilitar o acesso e o login;
2) opção de biblioteca para localizar os livros do Logos;
3) opção fácil de aumentar as letras dos livros;
4) talvez até uma opção básica de sublinhar e marcar os livros.

Desta forma, com funções simples, poderemos ler os livros do Logos/Verbum/E-book no navegador incorporado do Kindle. A vantagem disso é podermos ler na tela de tinta eletrônica (e-ink) que não cansa a vista como os displays LED etc.

Por favor, estudem esta possibilidade. Ela parece bastante viável já que, mesmo que precariamente, já é possível ler os livros no site "biblia.com".

It's a very good idea. I'd like to see it implemented.
If they can take advantage of one of the sites that already exist (biblia.com or app.logos.com) so that it identifies and adapts its interface to the Kindle browser, it would be fantastic to be able to read on the e-ink screen without having to spend a lot of money on more advanced devices with this technology.
The only thing we need to read comfortably on the kindle is an interface with large letters and icons to access the website and browse the library, and perhaps a simple highlighter. That's it! That's it for reading. If we need anything else, we can go to the app on our cell phone or tablet.

Better iPadOS version
I find that some features like the guides are a bit limited on mobile compared to desktop. We now have desktop chips in these new iPads. Would be nice to see an iPad specific (more powerful / desktop-like) version for iPad. Please! Otherwise, I am left waiting for a touchscreen/detachable MacBook to take to church. Only…
Text compare to have a column view on mobile
Basically any other Bible app has a text compare view in column format. Logos needs to add this.
Independent Font type and sizes for Song slides
Would be amazing if we could customize slides independantly in the song module when comes to Font type and size. For instance if there is a chorus where the word "JESUS" repeats, we would like to be able to blow that word up to almost full screen, but not affect the rest of the slides. If we could change backgrounds too,…
Dark Mode in Web App
I exclusively use the web app since I run Linux, and I'm disappointed that dark mode is not an option there. The web app also doesn't play nice with Dark Reader extention for Chrome (which wouldn't be an issue if the web app had its own dark mode). I would appreciate adding Dark Mode to the web app.
Passage List Additions
It would be useful if a passage list could be created from the "Bible Word Study" Listings under "senses" and "Septuagint Translation" and I think there is another listing that slips my mind at the moment. Also, it would be great if we could highlight individual words in the Passage List. A simple highlight would be OK,…
