PC to ipad cross platform question
I have Logos on my PC laptop. I'm considering the ipad but only if I can still access my Logos library, even though it's PC on the ipad. Will it work?

Sure, why not? You will have access to all of your resources that are mobile enabled. You can see which ones these are by visiting biblia.com. The fact that you use a windows computer is irrelevant… although when you start using an iPad, you might decide to switch to Mac. [:)]
FYI - You library syncs from the cloud… not from your computer. In other words, you don't have to have your computer on to use your mobile app. When you highlight & take notes, those are stored with Logos on their computers… which is where your mobile app goes to get the necessary info.

Ivor,
Hmm, just checked out your post again. I should mention that it is not your pc on the iPad. However, it is most of your resources you have in logos on the iPad and the functionality the Logo's app gives you with those resources.
Edit: Thanks alabama I was working on that one and posted after.

Thanks guys! That cinches it, ipad here I come. I used to be a macman but a job required Pc and not I've been "absorbed!" I prefer the Apple format.
Oh, is the app free from Logos?

It is. Do you already have Logos resources? (The app is free, the resources are not… but the mobile app does come with a few free resources).
FYI - the mobile app is not the same as the desktop app, although there are some similar features. I prefer to use the desktop app for in depth study, but I prefer the mobile app on my iPad for reading & highlighting (which syncs back to both my desktop & laptop). If you have specific needs with the mobile app, feel free to ask.

Wow, Alabam,
You got me on that one...I don't know the difference. By "resources" do you mean my Logos library books, formerly Libronix? I guess what I'm looking for is some kind of "apps primer" that will get me up to speed on the tech, jargon and functions. I haven't even got the thing and I may be over my head!

Yes. Logos typically refers to "books" as "resources," so I try to do the same. Many/most of your Libronix resources will work on the iPad.

Do you have a friend with one? If they were willing, you could ask them to download the app and you could sign in to play around with it. For legal reasons, you would need to delete the app afterwards. (your sign in provides you with your licenses, which is why you would need to delete the app afterwards).
