Downgrade from previous version

The new version is quite a downgrade from the old version. Not nearly as many functions. Two specific items that were in the old one but not the new one are the ability to change the font size and the ability to see when a held book needs to be picked up.

It won’t let me log in

Search function hard to use

The search function is extremely finicky. For example, on the website if I search “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” I get all options and the ability to place a hold or request on any type of media. However if I look up the same thing on the app, I get no matches. I only get results if I type in “Goblet of Fire.” Additionally, if an e-book is unavailable it is not immediately clear how I can place that item on hold. I am still not sure how to do it, but I am sure there must be a way. I find the entire process frustrating and prefer to use the website instead.

Log In issues

The app constantly requires you to login. Not useful if you’re using the app for access to your library card.

Not happy with having to log in every time I open

I use the app so that I don't have to have my card with me. But every time I open the app it makes me enter my card number/username and pin! Please fix this!
