What functionality is available for reverse interlinear's on the Logos iPhone app?
This is from the iPad. It looks different (the popup covers the screen), but the info is the same.
Thanks you for the screenshot. Do you know if the iPhone app functions similarly to the iPad?

Yes. As I said above, it looks different, but it functions the same.
Here is a screen shot of the same passage as above on the iPhone:
Hi! This is a thing I've tried to figure out. When I tap on a word on the Logos for IPhone App, the only thing that shows in the "black box" is "search the Bible" and "Bible word study on" and I can't see the Hebrew word and parsing at all. Do I need to download something else also. I don't have the Logos software on my computerThank formula
Thankful for all help!!!
I don't have the Logos software on my computer
Some of the features are only for users with a base package… Having the software on your computer is irrelevant… but it sounds like you don't have a base package either.

What translation are you using? What version of the app are you running? What device is it?
Hi. Thank's for your reply! I'm currently having the ESV, English Standard Version, to change it is not a problem. I use the 3.2.3 app version on a Iphone 4S. I don't think I have the base package, I just downloaded the App and signed What is the base package, and how can you get it?
And now when I tap on a word and push the "Look Up" it goes to some english dictionary.

This feature isn't available for non paying users, at least not with the ESV. If the feature were to work, it would likely be only with the Lexham English Bible, which Logos owns. You can try and see if it works. Since I actually own the resources, I can't trouble shoot that for you. Sorry! NOTE: You must be online for the feature to work… the search is performed on the Logos servers.
This is the expected behavior when 1) you down own the proper resources or 2) you are offline.
What is the base package, and how can you get it?
Logos has expanded into new markets, including mobile apps, Vyrso eBooks, and Faithlife study bible… (which is free right now, by the way). Historically, however, Logos has been high end Bible software for the PC (or more recently Mac) which focuses primarily on selling a library full of books. These are purchased through what they call "base packages." You can find out more HERE. If your primary usage is mobile, a base package probably isn't for you. The desktop software engine is free, however most of the features require the datasets and databases included in the base packages (or minimal cross grades). The ability to look up original language words, for example, requires a "reverse interlinear." I am not sure if Logos gives you that for the LEB as one of the free resources.
Okay, I think I get it . So if I for example buy the bronze package which include the hebrew and Greek language tools, that will make it work in the IPhone app? Otherwise not. The Lexham translation was available so I'm using that now. And your language tools are working on the app?
Melissa - It sounds like you understand correctly. I will clarify one point though… The desktop app is the primary one. The mobile app is very useful (I use it everyday), but it isn't the same thing as L5, nor does it have all the same features.
