FANTASTIC app!

Not sure why the ratings are so low… or the bad reviews. The app is great! I’ve had zero issues and have found so many new little free libraries in my area. Highly recommend!

Great

I love this idea of little library’s in the community, I ride with my husband for Uber eats deliveries and sometimes I rather read a book than to use my phone.

Used to be good

This was good but now it won’t even open. :(

Handy to find free little libraries...but

This is extremely helpful to locate FLL - I wish the blue banner on the top didn't cover 1/3 of the map on my phone...not sure why it's so big. Irritating.
I've tried the routing, but it doesn't 'route' in the order I have selected them...I can't figure out how it is selecting the 'next' FLL to go to, but it makes no sense to me.
I also wish the app intergrated more fully with google maps or whatever, it would be more convenient to have the routing in the app, as opposed to having the maps open...maybe it's not possible, I don't know.
That said, overall I am happy to have this tool to find FLL, without it, I would not be looking for them very much.

Love this app!

It’s much easier to find all the little free libraries in my area and when I travel. I’ve used the app for about two years now and never had any trouble.

App need help

This app would be great if it would actually work😅. The check-in feature works once in a blue moon. This app is really just good for finding some of the Little Free Libraries, but everything they’ve added to the app (like the guestbook section) isn’t fun if it doesn’t work.

Exciting but also disappointing

I was so excited to find that little free library has an app! I’ve been saying for a while I wish I could find something like this!! But I have some complaints, I do not have a LittleFreeLibrary (yet my hubby is in the process of building me one for my birthday) but there are little free libraries that are not listed on this app, and it won’t let me add them because I’m not the caretaker for them! I feel like it shouldn’t matter who’s taking care of the library I should be able to upload the fact that there are missing ones people could be using, but might not know about. I live in the middle of the country so I was excited to find this app so that way when I go into town I could find different places to exchange books. But half of the Little Free Librarys I use are not on this app! Now there are quite a few that I didn’t know about that I have found on this app, but they need to do something different. Maybe they could create a separate tab where you could add different libraries that were missing without claiming ownership of them? But I feel like people are missing out because the owners of the libraries don’t know about this app!!

Love my LFL app!

The app makes hunting for little free libraries so much fun!! Our family has made this a hobby. We can keep track of where we’ve checked in and keep and eye out for new ones that pop up around us.

Laggy and why do I need an account

Why is it laggy? pregnant pauses all the time.. need an account to save a favorite. also it’s too many taps to get directions which is really what you always want.

Better than nothing, but not exactly excellence in technology.

Terrible registration process

We’ve built our LFL and filled with books, had a launch party for the neighborhood and paid for a registration and sign, which is installed. But we can’t put ourselves on the map because we’re stuck in website- hell— a continual loop that says we’re registered under a different email ( true) and we should change it ( we did). But the website keeps asking us to change it back before we can go forward. We can’t get anyone on the phone and now we want to wash our hands of the organization and just serve the neighborhood unofficially. Unless you have infinite patience I don’t recommend entering into the endless loop of frustration that is this really, really bad website.
