Default bible in faithlife study bible

How does one change the default bible to the ESV. I can change it manually to the ESV, but everytime I re open logos it is back to the default.

Coversely if it cannot be changed, how does one manually change it to the ESV on the iphone?

Please adivse

If you are talking about the Faithlife Study Bible on your desktop/laptop, then it will follow whatever you have as a preferred/prioritized Bible translation. If you are talking about the Faithlife Study Bible app as on a iPad for example, then when you are in the read mode tap on the double rectangular box at the upper left and then swipe the dark area that opens up until you see Resources show up at the top left, under the home button. Then tap Bibles and then tap ESV, and it should then have a dark blue check mark beside it and the next time you open Resources and Bibles it should show ESV at the top with the blue check mark. (I don't have an iPhone.)

I am a little confused. I use the faithlife study bible in logos. My default logos bible is the ESV. The default faithlife bible study bible when I open it in logos is the lexham something bible. I want the default in the faithlife study bible when I open it in logos to be ESV. how do I change the default to ESV?

I also want the default to be the ESV when I open the faithlife study bible through logos on my iphone.

please let me know

Can you explain a little more and/or give a screen shot? When I use the faithlife study bible, all of my hyperlinks take me to the ESV (my preferred/prioritized bible). You have made the ESV your preferred bible in the library, right? Is that what you mean when you write that the ESV is your "default" bible?

Whatever I set in my default bible flows through to Logos App for iOS, Vyrso App for
iOS , Faith Life Study Bible App for iOS, Biblica.com website. Not sure why you are getting a different bible as default on Faith Life iOS App.

All I want to to is use the ESV in my Faithlife app, not the Lexham bible.

I am finding all this difficult to follow. I do not see any place on either Logos.com or Faithlife.com or either of those apps on my iPad where i can "Set" a "priority' or "default" bible. In biblia.com I can view the ESV (the one i want to use) but that does not carry to anywhere else. When I go to the Logos app on iPad and navigate to the "library" and touch ESV the pop up says it's "only available online" because I haven't added it to my bible software library on Logos. Which of course I can't find any reference to.

This all feels very circular and a clear, concise tutorial would be very helpful.

Jeff,

In your iPad apps, on the 'home page' of the app click on your name to open up Account settings, and choose Settings. The option is there.

it's "only available online"

This just means you have not downloaded it to your iPad, so it will be available to you only when you have an Internet connection.

Some people download their whole Logos library to the iPad but I only download those I think I'll use the most or need for a current study.

To download a book, in Library view on the iPad tap the circle with the lower case i inside. That will open up an info panel. On that panel is a place to download that resource.

You can also download your whole library (or a portion of it that is selected by using the Library search or locator panel). Simply pull down on the library listing and you'll see an option to Download All.

I have changed the option to ESV and the iPhone app downloaded it but it still opens LEB as top view panel bible and I can't locate the "Library view" on the iPhone :-( Has someone succeeded at changing the shown bible text to ESV on the iPhone? If yes, then how?

Thanks in advance!

For Faithlife App: in choosing the "search" icon you ought to be able to find 'Favorites", "History", "Search", "Go", and "Resources" [:)] by swiping sideways. (The "search" icon is where you find "Daily readings", "My faithlife", "news" etc.)

Hope this helps.

Thank you :-) I have tried to "swipe" but on the area where those actual "page dots" are located (you can "tap" on the page dots of springboard to change pages and I thought I can do the same here). So, thanks again! Now I can use this marvelous study bible with the translation I'm used to :-)
