AI search is a joke – Exhibit 3
All you Logos fanboys and fangirls, please take a break…this AI search is a helluva joke played on its customers. They have the gall to charge us for this. I had this quote from Charles Spurgeon: "Little things are always swift in anger; great things are not so." I wanted to get the context. I know I have lots and lots of…

Hi Logos-Community, I use Logos on my mobile, either in the App oder WebApp. I very like the search functionality, especially with the AI opportunity, also to be able to use this on my iPad.

Smarte Suche auf Sammlung einschränken
Mir scheint es, als wäre es nicht möglich, eine smarte Suche auf eine Sammlung anzuwenden. Immer wenn ich den Suchbereich auf Bücher setze und dann die Sammlung auswählen, schaltet er den Suchmodus auf precise (hier fehlt übrigens die deutsche Übersetzung) zurück. Mache ich etwas falsch? Ich arbeite hier auf dem iPad.

Seeking resource suggestions

Bible Search Improvements
I think the way the search tool works is way too specific to really be useful. (I am referencing the "Search All Bible Text in All Passages for" tool.) For one very important thing, I would much appreciate if case sensitivity were removed when searching for text. It's frustrating when "feed my sheep" or "if ye love me"…

Results of a smart Bible search won't save to a passage list
I'm unable to save the results of my smart Bible search to a passage list. The passage list document opens, with the search text as the title, but with no verses. Is this a bug, or a missing capability? (Verbum 40.0 Beta 1 | 40.0.281)

Jewish women not qualified for testimony in court?

Why can't I switch back to a regular view of the text after a search?
Perhaps I am missing something, but I cannot seem to get back to the full text of a passage after doing a search. So, for example, I was reading in Deuteronomy 10 and wanted to search "love God" in Deuteronomy. It gave results nicely, but then I couldn't figure out how to get back to the straight text of Deuteronomy 10…

The smart search panel should have a "save to note" feature for a completed search
The smart search panel should have a "save to note" feature for a completed search, located under the three vertical dots, above or under the "save as visual filter" option. The feature should result in the original search query along with the Synopsis and perhaps a list of the top sources being saved to a new note.

combining a lemma and a non-specific morphological search
I want to do Bible searches on Hebrew verbs. Hebrew has various verb forms, qal, piel, hiphil. So I want to search the lemma in one of these forms. Logos won't let me do that.
