Journals are a mess in iOS
I'm running iOS 9 and am trying to list the journals in Library by using type:journal, Sort by Title.
Here are some strange things I see:
Christian Apologetics Journal, Volumes listed: 1,2,3,4,8,9,7,8,9
BibSac: all kinds of strangeness. The results are not shown in order by title. The volume numbers are very messed up. Volumes 169-171 appear twice, along with 130 and 144. I am missing 164-168 (and perhaps others).
I have two copies of Detroit Baptist Seminary volumes 16 & 17, but no volumes 1 & 2.
Emmaus Journal is not showing up in order of volume number, nor is Evangelical Journal of Theology, Faith and Mission, The Founder's Journal, Grace Journal.
The Journal for Biblical Literature, Volumes 100-123 show up twice, separated by a few other journals. The second listing shows volumes 124 and 125.
I am missing The Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood Volumes 1-13.
I have many duplicate volumes of Semeia and Westminster.
I may be missing a bunch of other journals in whole or in part but the lousy sorting makes this too troublesome to check.
I list 1505 type:journal in iOS and 1583 in Logos 6.6.
The whole listing is a mess.

Please try this - navigate to the Home page of the iOS app and enter "rebuild index" (case sensitive) into the Reference field at the top, then wait a minute or two and try your Library filters again.

I am tried with the following filter sorted by title - type:journal and tilte:biblio and got different but similar issues in terms of the volumes that were missing - trying a rebuild index command now.

Have you both verified that all of the journal resources are supported on mobile? How new are the journals that appear to be missing, have they very recently been published?

I can verify that the journals list is a mess, even after "rebuild index." I only examined BibSac—Volumes 155-171 are listed twice. Sorted by title and scrolled to the bottom of the list. At that point, everything looked normal—until I started scrolling back toward the top of the list. Then, I found those duplicated volumes a few screens back toward the top.

Yes confirming also after rebuild index same issues exist.

Something happened to my reply from last night and it didn't get posted. I did reindex and while there was some improvement as d.o.c. and Jack report, volumes are still duplicated, out of sequence, or missing.
One funny thing with the Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood. If I sort by Title there are missing volumes. If I then add the word Manhood to the search string type:journal, the sort resets to Sort by Rank and all the volumes appear. Removing the extra search term and reverting to Sort by Title loses the volumes again.

I noticed if I searched for a specific title that appeared to be missing from the long list that it would show up but then going back to the long list, it once again disappeared. Confirming still seeing those duplicate volumes.

I'll write up a case for this issue, something is obviously amiss.
