How can two people read the same book on different devices without it syncing to the last reader
My wife and I are trying to read a book together on different devices. It always syncs to the last reader. Thanks for any help, Paul

Your license is for "one user." FL interprets this to include a spouse, but nevertheless, it is for "one user." Everything is built around that. The only sure fire method would be to have two accounts/ two purchases. With that said, if you leave the resource open on both devices, it should stay put. You could also create bookmarks.

Alabama, I'm likely wrong, but does it keep Logos mobile apps separate? Meaning if you read the same book (eg Bible) on two Logos apps, it doesn't sync them? That was my impression.

It does sync. If the book is open, it should stay put. When you open from the library, it should open to the last placed used... across devices, across apps.
FWIW- this is a perfect case study for why there should be "projects." Logos resources aren't all like novels (start at beginning, read to end). A user may have need for the SAME resource to have multiple save points based on her current project/task.

I've used customized layouts for this purpose. Create my study layout and then just update it before I close out Logos. For example, I had a layout designed for each paper I was writing and another for my prep work for a presentation, then another for my sermon prep.
Not sure that would be helpful for mobile, though. Unless they may layouts available for the WebApp - then you could have a "His" and "Hers".
My wife occasionally will use my Logos account for study, so I created a special, simplified layout for her with a specific Custom Passage Guide and Collection so it would be ready for her to jump right in. She doesn't use Logos frequently enough to validate a separate and costly library/account.

Disconnecting one of the devices from the internet would do the job.
