Allow Scrolling with Audio Bible/book
It would be wonderful if Logos had an auto scroll feature that scrolled with the Bible or a book. It would be difficult to keep the scrolling text matched up with the audio but it think it could be done in such a way where any audio Bible could be used.
How it could be done.
From the users end - Select a text... Select an audio of that text... select "auto scroll" and begin scrolling
From the logos/programmers end - If the auto scroll analyzed the audio file it could calculate a scroll speed that would start and end in the right place.

My idea is not really completed. The new audio books you have added are not what I'm talking about.
There are many free audio books from librivox.org and many already have some of the books that Christian Audio has produced. I'm talking about a tool that works with the recording to scroll along.
I already own many of the books you are selling as audio books but I don't get any discount.

To get the full benefits of Logos resources (ebooks and audio books), you need to purchase them from Logos.com. Just as the app can't import Kindle books, audiobooks purchased from other sources can't be used in the app either.
I don't know of any problems with the Android app caused by a phone not being "unlocked", sorry. If you post details of the problem (along with your model of phone and Android version) to our support forums, our technical staff should be able to help you: https://community.logos.com/forums/96.aspx

Well... yes and no. The audio books that you are producing are great however unless purchased from Logos there is no auto scrolling. Many of the books Logos is now selling audio to I already have as an audio book (mostly from ChristianAudio.com). I was told that to get the logos audio I would need to repurchase the book. I was also told that if i bought the Logos version than i could not export to mp3 and listen to on my mp3 player.
I could only listen to books through the logos app. This is a major problem because in a completely separate conversation I was told a logos employee who specifically works with android that the logos app won't work on my phone because it is not "unlocked". I have since resorted to uninstalling the app and using biblia.com (which is not as convenient).
