This is very useful. Our FSGO endeavours to share at least one JW Library tip at every FSM. Glad to have a video to refer back to. Looking forward to considering this at the midweek meetings.

It’s a nice video. However, it doesn’t say anything about new features, like improved search or the ability to use Watchtower Publications Index. 

[Br. Ice]

Yes, it sure is a good review of features within the app. I never knew the app supports emojis. I'm going to try that for sure.

I appreciate the review. I just went over my 2013 am notes just on this past Monday. 

 

To get the 2013 revision of NWT and jw library at same time was awesome.

Great memories.  i can recall when someone asked (back then) why we called it a JW LIBRARY app when it only had a bible in it....😀

Nice article about the JWLibrary app...

Does anyone recall when the JWLibrary feature to "start reading audio at a specific verse" was introduced?

Brother Fernandez: When you are in the app, do you ever wish you could start listening to audio recordings at a specific verse instead of starting at the beginning of the chapter? Now you can! Tap a bible verse number then tap the play button.

 

This also works in other publications like, the Watchtower and the material we’re studying in the congregation Bible study.Thanks a lot.

Interesting footnote that our streaming and downloads costs US$1.5 million.

Presumably the licensing fees for storage and delivery systems?

Wow! I thought it was free for the organization.

 

At the end of the April 2016 JWB Bro. William Malenfant says "If we download them the files we can play the song over and over with no extra cost to the organization." And I thought he worded it in an odd way. Now i gyess it makes sence.

[Skye]

Wow! I had no idea it cost that much! Now it makes more sense why it's better to share links. 

[AH173]

I'm loving the multi device /platform ability as well as the backup /restore feature. I use this constantly!

I noticed it, too. I’d thought it was much more expensive given the scale of our organization and multimedia files.

I’m not sure I understand. If you share a link, the file is downloaded/streamed for the other person. It’s okay anyway

 

I think if we want to save coast for our organization is to download files (especially videos) which we are going to play repeatedly. I think music videos is a good example. 

[Peak Pelka]

This follows the organization accomplish just released. 

 

I have appreciated the many more suggestions introduced and am just about to use it to the full

That's what I do.  I don't stream anything - all the songs and videos I want to play are uploaded to my Google Drive and downloaded to my phone.  I don't like glitches or breaks in streaming service that can be experienced.  It's my version of having a "hard copy"... and when I heard it saved the Branch money, I was even happier!

I backup all 3 device once a month. (iPad, iPhone and PC.)

[AH173]

For me it's every time I either highlight or make a note within jw library. It varies but it's frequent-probably every 3-5 days.

Many devices + frequent research and study = many backups
