When I view a book that I don't own I see the message "See Inside & Try In Logos." This is new. How does it work? Will I be billed if I select to try in Logos?

    No. It just opens it in the Web App, and you only see the same info that you would see if you clicked on the original See Inside.

    I think it would be more helpful if they'd show a couple of screenshots of the text actually open in Logos. And not only of the title page/contents - a couple sample pages from within the book.

    Definitely not ready for prime time.

    If it's a book I own, it says 'Open in Logos', which then opens Verbum to a blank screen. And stops there. Thank you, Logos!! It just doesn't know what to do with'Verbum'. Normally, on Logos.com, I just want a quick view of the book, even though I own it. I don't need opening the app and staring at a blank screen.

    I see the same thing. It makes the preview window smaller ands harder to read. Don’t like it much
