Getting Started
This page helps you use Wmb Table for the first time, step by step.
Before you begin
Wmb Table runs on your computer. You do not need technical experience to use it.
You mainly need:
- a computer where the application is already installed
- some free disk space to download languages
- an internet connection if you want to download a language, sync your data, or check for updates
First launch
When you open Wmb Table for the first time, the application first asks you to choose a language.
- Open the application.
- Wait for the language window to appear.
- Download the language you want to use.
- Click that language to make it active.
- The application will then load the sermons for that language.

Take the screen with the language list, the download button, and the active language tag.
What you see next
After you choose a language, the application opens with three main areas:
- at the top: the main bar
- on the left: tools such as search, notes, and settings
- on the right: sermons, Bible, and your own documents
The center area is used for reading.
Your first reading
To open your first sermon:
- Look at the right side panel.
- Keep the

Simple advice to begin well
