Toolbar
The quickest entry points: open the sidebar, pin for fast toggle, silence the extension on a given site, or jump to Options.
- Click the Logos Link icon in the toolbar to open the sidebar.
- Pin the extension (click the puzzle-piece icon → pin icon next to Logos Link) so the toolbar button is always visible and you can toggle it on or off with one click.
- Right-click the icon to disable Logos Link on the current website. Useful when a site’s own link-preview (e.g. Wikipedia) conflicts with ours.
- Choose Options from the right-click menu to customize default behavior — detection, tooltips, intercepts, citation formats, and Logos product links.

Sidebar
The browsing interface for everything Logos Link detected on the current page. Three tabs, each with filtering, sorting, copy-out, and deep-link actions.
- The sidebar is organized around three reference groups: Verses, Topics, and Books.
- Each tab has a filter box to quickly find an item detected on the current page.
-
The Verses tab also lets you type in any Bible
reference and instantly get the text — e.g.
John 3:16orRom 8:28–30. - Each list matches page order by default. You can switch to canonical order for Verses, or alphabetical for Topics and Books.
- Navigate through the list with up/down arrow buttons in the status bar — the page scrolls to the matching location as you step through.
- Click the “scroll to on page” button on any card to jump the page to that item’s location.
- Copy out any list in various formats — plain text, Markdown, formatted citations. Defaults are configurable in Settings and exposed per-tab via the Copy dropdown.
- Jump into Logos from any item: open in your Bible, open in Factbook, or run a search.
- Persistent links to open the web app or desktop app live at the bottom of the sidebar.

Page content
The core of the product: Logos Link silently detects biblical content on the pages you read. Three specific contexts to try.
Web articles
- Go to a page like this Desiring God article — dense in Bible references, theology terms, and biblical entities.
- Hover over an underlined Bible reference, topic, Greek/Hebrew word, or book to see a preview tooltip. Click the link to open the sidebar to that item: the right tab, scrolled to the right card.
- Click a link in the tooltip to launch Logos: open a Bible, open Factbook, or run a search.
Google Search
-
Run a Google search for
John 3:16, then click the Bible Gateway result. Logos Link intercepts the click and reroutes it toapp.logos.com, so the reference opens in the Logos web app instead of Bible Gateway.
Book PDPs
- Visit any Amazon book PDP — or a publisher’s book page — and look for the toast in the bottom-right corner that searches for the book on Logos.com.

Type
logosinto the Chrome address bar, press Tab or Space, then type either:-
A search term (e.g.
Trinity) — runs a Logos search. -
A Bible reference (e.g.
John 3:16) — opens that passage in the Logos web app.
-
A search term (e.g.
I haven’t spent much time here yet — pretty basic and needs polish. Ideas welcome.
Before you go
What I’m looking for
There are a number of known bugs and polish issues I haven’t gotten to yet. Feel free to report anything, but focus most of your feedback on the core strategy and feature set.
Where to send feedback. Slack DM, email, or a one-line note on the strategy deck — any format is fine. If it’s a detection bug, the page URL plus the reference / term / book that was missed is plenty.
