Please reduce the load time of the Logos desktop app for PC. Its boot time currently exceeds the combined startup duration of Visual Studio and Adobe Photoshop.
What sort of startup time are you seeing?
21 seconds

@Graham Criddle just wondering, how long does Logos take to load the first time after a reboot on your computer?
Hi @HeIsWithUs
just wondering, how long does Logos take to load the first time after a reboot on your computer?
I've just checked this and, according to the Logos log, it took 17.5 seconds
2025-11-08 20:24:22.2795 INFO 2 StartupUtility | Finished startup at 17.47s.
Looking at the log activity, there are some things that take a significant part of those 17.5 seconds, such as:
2025-11-08 20:24:14.1994 INFO 13 SyncManager
Starting sync manager thread.
2025-11-08 20:24:14.2003 INFO 13 StartupUtility
(1891ms) Startup step: StartPostSetFactoryServicesWork
2025-11-08 20:24:14.2013 INFO 33 SyncManager
Sync manager thread started.
But most of it is because Logos is starting a lot of processes, connecting to databases, etc.
For me, this amount of startup time does not cause any problems - it is rare I reboot my computer or restart Logos apart from for testing purposes - but I understand for others this may be a problem.
Microsoft Word opens in 1 second.
Sure - but is doing a lot less in the background.
Microsoft Windows 11 from off to login in 20 seconds.
During installation, Logos presents multiple library size options (8GB, 9GB, 10GB), which can delay setup. Please streamline the process by defaulting to the minimum viable library size and removing all other choices during installation. Once the application launches, users can optionally expand their library from within…
Please bring a dark mode/theme to the web app.
Hello Logos Support Team, I'd like to request that the verse memorization tool currently available in Logos desktop be added to the mobile app. This feature would be incredibly valuable on mobile since it would allow me to practice and review Scripture memory while I'm on the go - during commutes, waiting in line, or any…
Adding the ‘Copy Bible Verses’ tool to the Mobile App tools would be a very handy addition.
