    You would get a better response to this question in the Android forum. But I think if you pull down in the library, you should be able to download all resources.

    This is my personal Faithlife account. On 1 March 2022, I started working for Faithlife, and have a new 'official' user account. Posts on this account shouldn't be taken as official Faithlife views!

    Hi Phillip - and welcome to the forums.

    I am guessing you are running the Android app. 

    If so, in the Library window, swipe down and you should see a Download button. I think that the maximum you can download at one time is 100. So if, for example, you choose a series "series:word biblical" you should be able to download all of those.

    Any particular reason you want to download them all? Note that you would need to download them again if for any reason you need to delete and reinstall the app

    There have been a number of discussions about this in the Android forum - https://community.logos.com/forums/96.aspx - so would be worth looking there and posting follow up questions there.

    very understandable... it is not recommended to have large amounts of ones library downloaded, that said I have downloaded about 1300 resources to my iPad which is over 15% of my Library but is the items I want to have access to no matter what. FL has been designed to be a cloud based mobile platform for better or worse that is it's design, but you actually posted in the Logos Now Web platform which is a totally cloud access with no downloading of files (as I understand it).

    Go to the info panel in the library view on the desktop app. You can easily make very complex selections of books and add them to your mobile device. You could also select all I guess.

    A practice I have found helpful is to add the tag "mobile" to resources that I know I want to have with me at all times on a mobile device. The list primarily consists of English Bibles and various reference works. On a mobile device, I then just have to search for mytag:mobile in the library view and hit "Download All." I can repeat this process anytime I have to replace a mobile device without having to manually re-download my core set of books that I carry with me. Alternatively, it is possible for me to use the desktop version of Logos to select all books that match mytag:mobile and then click a single checkbox telling Logos I want those books downloaded on a mobile device. I do something similar with books I want to read using mytag:reading.
