Offer free books that are not blocked

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I live in The Netherlands. I find it disappointing that one out of three free books that I am offered are blocked saying "The publisher has chosen not to make this book available in your geographic region". I feel that things should be free of penalties based on geolocation.

In all my years of picking up the monthly free books, this was my first time coming across one that was geo-restricted. Before that, I always assumed Logos checked the geo-status prior to offering the free books. While a bit disappointing, I'm not entitled to free books, so I think Logos should be free (no pun intended) to offer whatever they want to (or are able to). I remain happy for the ones I do get.

(What I want most is for there to be no geo-restrictions at all. So many books I've wanted to buy but couldn't 😔)

(Edited to add: I should've mentioned the book: Experience Your Bible)

These marks would…
Website – Textbox Overflow Issue

It makes it incredible difficult to read on the site because the text keeps moving up and down every few seconds. It's likely a sizing or padding issue with h3…
Font size for the mobile app
The font size of pop-up windows in the mobile app is noticeably smaller compared to the text in the main reading windows. While there is a general font size setting, it applies globally and doesn’t allow for customization based on window type. For comparison, the Olive Tree app provides separate font size settings for…
Workflows in Ipad
The only reason I paid for an expensive package was to have access to workflows. Sadly, the IPad app doesn’t support workflows and this is really inconvenient for me.
ChatGPT Deep Research Source Integration
There is a new feature available for Plus users in ChatGPT to use custom "sources" for their Deep Research tool. Currently, you can choose from your own Dropbox account along with a variety of other kinds of custom integrations. I was looking at that thinking how awesome it would be to be able to integrate my Logos library…
