I've looked for, but cannot find, the new lesson outlines for Come Follow Me in the Gospel Library app. Given that traditional printed manuals will not be provided, and YM, YW, Seminary, and SS will all be using this content, I imagine that making this material available to Apple and Android devices would be a very high priority. Thoughts?

The content team for the mobile apps is working on making the material available but it is not yet available yet. They hope to have it available by the end of the year and when it is, it will be available in all mobile formats.

Be advised that LDS.org is advertising that the content is now on the Gospel Library App (http://www.lds.org/topics/teaching-the- ... d?lang=eng) but I'm still not seeing it anywhere. They probably should pull that link down until it is actually on.

We are aware that it is being advertised. Because there is degrees of separation between the web team for LDS.org and the Gospel Library teams, getting it removed isn't as easy as it seems. We still hope to have the content available soon so hopefully it won't be much of an issue.

Thanks, Jason. Will you please update this thread when the content becomes available (ensuring we don't have to keep checking the app)?

Thank you for your volunteer work. In short time, we have become very dependent on the terrific Gospel Library app.

I finally saw everything there later this morning for both iOS and Android, but now the lessons for iOS are gone.

OK... here is what you do...

Go online, access the LDS.org lessons for Come Follow Me... save the page for offline viewing. Download all the media and put it in a folder on your computer. If you don't have a computer to bring, you could print the pages to PDF file, and download all the media to your phone/tablet. Then upload the pdf file to dropbox or something, unless you have a save web-page to pdf file on your mobile/tablet browser.. but uploading to cloud storage is ok.. but remember to go to your mobile device and make sure you download a copy of the file from the cloud storage so it's on the local device.

Work arounds are so fun...

Uninstall your gospel library app and reinstall. That worked for me. BOM come follow me now shows up.

You can also sign out and sign in again to the app to force an update. It is a little less dramatic than uninstalling and reinstalling.

Thanks for the tips. I still can’t get it updated on my iPad mini. Is the device to old? Just curious if anyone else has run into this problem to receive the come follow me BOM lessons.

See the thread Supported iOS versions for Gospel Library. You can look there to find out if your OS version is supported or if the version of Gospel Library you have installed is supported.

According to this site the original iPad Mini is limited to iOS 9.3.5. According to Supported iOS versions for Gospel Library, iOS 9 "your device will run Gospel Library 4.4.0. (No longer receiving content updates after March 2019.)"

Based on that, yes, I'd say it's too old. You need to get it iOS 10 or better.
