Installation question Logos 7 vs. Verbum 7

I just upgraded from Logos 6 Starter to Verbum 7 Bronze.  I already let Logos update itself so the full feature set is now installed.

My questions:

1. Do I need to install a separate Verbum application to make use of Verbum specific features?  This FAQ seems to imply that I simply need to execute the command "Set Verbum to Yes": https://verbum.com/support/articles/verbum-faq

2. What would be the indications that I have access to all Verbum features?  Apart from the change of logo at the top right corner, I don't notice any changes: the Tools and the Guides menu is exactly the same (see below), the QuickStart Layout is exactly the same (see below).  This is after setting Verbum mode to yes, and after restarting the app.  Should I see something different?

Your help is appreciated !

    At the moment, "Set Verbum to Yes" is sufficient, although that may possibly change in the future.

    The logo on the home page will be different. You'll see some different sections in the Passage Guide (Catechisms, Fathers etc.). Under the hood, default resource prioritisation changes.

    Thanks for the prompt answer, Mark.  That answers my question.  Here's a side by side comparison on what Passage Guide shows for Eph 3:1-13: Logos 7 (left), Verbum 7 (right):
