It WAS great…
I used to love Litsy, but the app now has so many bugs that I can’t use it. It hasn’t been updated in 5 years, so that’s not shocking!
Unique and Friendly
Relatively good app so far, easy to use and filled with nice people. I love the unique concept of an app dedicated for book lovers. Though I wish it had a larger user base so that posts would get more interaction and that the occasional slow loading of the app would be fixed. Most importantly, are there going to be any updates on this app? I don’t want to get invested in an app that has been abandoned by the developers...

Perfect for Booklovers
I’ve been on Litsy for about 3 years now, and I have to say it’s my favorite book space/social media. Everyone talks about books, bookish things, and sometimes other things going on in their lives that makes you feel more connected with a person than on other sites. Everyone is very friendly and it’s fun to have a debate on a book, passage, or discussion. Some even post buddy reading days, readathon weekends/holidays, and book club reads! Overall it’s my favorite safe place.

Not like it used to be
I have had Litsy for a year now and when I initially started using it, I loved it. Everyone was using it for the way it was intended. Posting their recent reads, quotes from books, and adding reviews.
Within the last few months, the community has taken a turn and now just treat it like Instagram. I have to hunt for review posts. I love the quick review posts this app offers as it’s a quick and straight to the point and has helped me decide if I want to pick a book up or not. But with so many in the community using it has a hangout platform to host games and challenges and no way to actually weed these particular posts out, I no longer see review posts anymore.
I have been utilizing the heck out of the block/mute feature but it gets tiresome having to update it all the time.
It would be wonderful if there was a way to view posts based on what type: quote, blurb or review, since those are the three types the platform lets you post under.
I have met some amazingly nice people on there and I like to use it for how it was intended. I just wish there was an easier way to navigate it to find what I want, since it’s community has grown.
It’s just heavily overrun with game posts and monthly photo challenges. I just want quick reviews and blurbs about books, and conversations about books.

Love the app, buggy lately
I LOVE Litsy. Lately it’s been super buggy though. I have the newest iPhone and when I’m scrolling I am constantly being redirected to links that I’m not clicking on. I can’t just scroll through anymore and so I’ve been using it less and less. Used to be on all the time and I think the last time I posted was a few weeks ago. Hope they fix this soon! It was my favorite social media app.

Love it!
Have been using this app for over a year now and it’s great!
I just wish there was an easier way to navigate your older posts to find posts you’ve made about particular books. For instance, it’d be great if when you clicked on the profile for a book, all your posts about it were pinned to the top instead of all users’ posts being chronological.

Latest update for “bug fixes” has wiped the app
By wiped the app I mean every single page is blank. There’s nothing there.
