Where can one go to learn Logos' Android app?…
I tried using Logos Android app tonight at church with limited success. All I need is quick access to my Bibles, quick navigation, and verse links. It didn't seem to go real smooth. Can I set a default Bible version in the Android app? Do resources store on my phone? I'd like to see some control over that. Do we have that?

Hi Michael
Can I set a default Bible version in the Android app?
Currently this is designed to sync with the highest prioritised Bible on your Logos 4 configuration. You may experience some delay in the synchronisation process. The iOS app has a "Preferred Bible" setting which I would expect will arrive on Android at some stage.
Do resources store on my phone?
By default they are in the cloud but you can download them for offline use. Find the resource in your library, press the right arrow to the right of the screen and press the "Download" button. Currently you can only download resources one at a time but Logos are working on mechanisms to make this more efficient.
Hope this helps

You can navigate quickly by pressing the menu button and tapping the icon on the right of the "Enter passage" box --> it gives you a TOC.
Clarify "verse links".

Verse links, in my parlance, synchronize Bible verses when switching from translation to translation or commentary. I see they are called link sets in Logos 4.

Those don't exist on Android Logos. You have to manually switch between resources, but try this in Library as it will use the same location (passage). If you switch from History you will go to its previous location.

It does not sync with the highest prioritised Bible. It only uses the ESV regardless of the priority on the Desktop.

Hi Trevor - and welcome to the forums

This is not my experience.
My highest prioritised Bible on the desktop is the NRSV and this is the default Bible which is used when I - for example - click on references in a commentary.
I am running the beta version of 4.5 if that is relevant.
It can take some time for prioritisation changes to filter through to the mobile devices - I wonder if that is a factor here. Did you once have the ESV as your highest prioritised Bible at all?

This is a common question and we don't have a satisfactory answer. The desktop priorities may sync but it will not be satisfactory until desktop 4.5 is released and Logos for Android adopts the new Sync protocol (in a future release[:)]).
