Quick question. My wife has the newest Fire from Amazon that you can pick up for $50. The Vyrso app doesn't appear but the Bible app does. She'd like to just read Vyrso books and doesn't need all the bells and whistles that the full Logos app has. Is there a reason the Vyrso app doesn't work with this device. I know it's kind of a bare bones device, but the fact that the Logos Bible app appears makes me curious why the Vyrso app isn't available. She likes to just read the books and doesn't need all of the added features. Thanks for any thoughts to suggestions on why this is the case.

    The Amazon Store doesn't allow Vyrso to be installed on Kindle devices.  They consider it competition (I think) to their reader app.

    Okay, that makes sense. I wasn't thinking about it from the Amazon side of things, which is why I was trying to figure out why Faithlife wouldn't put Vyrso on. It's like the recent removal of Chromecast by Amazon. And since the Bible app is a more complete Bible study app, they don't see that as a direct competition though it might be considered an indirect one. Thanks for clearing that up for me!
