It woorks well, if you access it from an iphone, it will automatically
open the mobile site. If you use a desktop computer, remember go choose
about biblia and then choose to switch to the mobile view, it's much
more accessible and less cluttered than the desktop version.

Thanks for mentioning biblia, Mike. I know I used to use
library.logos.com <http://library.logos.com>, and apparently they took
that offline. I will give biblia a try!

The newest version is logos 6, it's not accessible on the mac, and
somewhat useable on IOS. The best Bible commentary in my opinion is the
People's bible commentary which is available from the Logos site.
Rather than read it using a program, I prefer to go to biblia.com
<http://biblia.com>, click about biblia and choose to switch to the
mobile view of the site. This is very accessible and will allow you to
read books one section at a time.

Hi,
Now that is an excellent point and one I had not previously considered.
I have Optasia and a Focus 14 Blue. Optasia has several versions
especially formatted to be read in braille including Greek and Hebrew.
I have a 128 GB 6S+ which includes several browsers as well as
Microsoft word. Probably the only thing holding me back is my beginning
Braille skills. I'm still learning. I'm in fact waiting for Hadley to
bring their revised contracted Braille courses back online to continue
my studies. However I had never considered Optasia on the iPhone
before. Thanks for the idea.
Merv

I use Logos 3 on my computer. While not everything is useable, I can do
searches and read books. I bought Logos 4 but it was unusable so I
haven't attempted an upgrade from there.
More on topic for this list, I tried the IOS Logos 4 two or three years
ago and couldn't use it. Based on Keith's experience I am going to try again.
One resource I use a lot are the books available from Optasia
Ministries. They are in RTF and HTML formats so I don't know how they
could be used on an IOS device but imagine someone else does.

I had Logos 4 Platinum Edition plus a lot of other books and addins
when I had vision. However, once I lost the ability to effectively see
the screen I could no longer use Logos on my PC. Once Libronix sold out
to faithLife they lost interest in accessibility and even reassigned
their accessibility programmer to a different project so I not only
never upgraded to five or six Platinum or beyond, but I uninstalled it
before moving to Windows 10. I literally had about three thousand
resources I could no longer access.

Hi, Ralph. I am running IOS 9.3 on an iphone 6. I downloaded Logos from
the app store and don't remember a version number. But it updates
regularly and, though it takes a bit of working around some things, it
is pretty much usable. I have purchased some books through it and now
including free resources, have about 116 books in my Logos library.
I have never found the version on the computer to be very user-friendly
with a screen reader. However, if you ever want to know my work-arounds
to make it usable on the iphone, please feel free to email me offbbist
and I will be glad to help you.

Subject: Accessible Bible Commentary?
Hi, Dani. As a pastor I have three sources of accessible commentaries.
First, the website www.biblegateway.com <http://www.biblegateway.com>
has some accessible materials. Also, there are accessible commentaries
available on www.bookshare.org <http://www.bookshare.org>, if you are a
member. Finally, I have a program called Logos on my iphone, and,
though the program is not completely accessible, it is usable. I am
also wondering about a Bible study email group as well. Keith
