Why aren't there any saving options for layouts on Samsung mobile app

I downloaded logos on my Samsung, and there are literally no saving options for my layouts. The app's options do not reflect those on the website or the Apple app. They are completely different. It's as if the Google Play Store app is limited in options and functionality compared to the Apple app. There is an option to change the display and put windows side-by-side on the Apple app but there isn't one on Android. The Android app is limited to only reading the Bible and accessing a couple of tools and books. I can't find any YouTube videos or anything on the Logos website to help navigate the Android app. If anyone has a helpful video, I would appreciate it.

    Are you talking about the iPhone Logos app? I've never done a split screen/side-by-side on the iPhone; I don't even know how to do that on my iPhone. However, I do it regularly on my iPad.

    Unfortunately, I don't have any experience with the android app for Logos.

    Edit: After a quick google search, I learned how to do it on the iOS iPhone app.

    Hi @Durell Maddox - and welcome to the forums.

    You can have multiple tabs on Android as per my screenshot below

    It's cool I just figured everything out. Unfortunately there is no side by side feature on the mobile apps but your right it is on the iPad or tablets.

    If you turn on Auto-rotate, this should work.

    Now, I could be ignorant of Android, as I am not experienced in that. I just downloaded it onto an older Android phone through the Google play store, and it has the same options for split screen as the iPhone app. I'll post some pictures I took from it (I don't know how to do android screen shots, nor how I would get them from this old phone to my computer anyways).

    Sorry about the photos. In the first photo, looking at the "tab selection" screen, it's the little icon on the thumbnail of the tab itself that shows a split screen…that is where the split screen option is. Once you have the top-bottom split screen open in full screen, rotate your phone horizontally, and it should rotate to side-by-side.
