OSLM Stinks

The latest version (December 2024) of this Ocean State Libraries app is terrible. It constantly locks up, doesn’t display correctly and requires me to delete it and reinstall it from the App Store to do one or two searches before it’s useless again. PLEASE FIX THIS APP. It is critical for library patrons.

This new app is absolutely terrible

It locks up on my iPhone. I can’t enter the pin.

Enjoying New Look

I am really enjoying the look of the new app. The thematic carousels of book covers that greet you make browsing for a potential read much easier. It really complements my use of the Libby app. This is a great improvement over the last version.

New App does not work for me

The old app worked fine. The new app does not work on my older phone. Poor people frequently have older phones. Fixing what wasn’t broken has the expected results. The library has inadvertently excluded poor people from access. This certainly is counter to the library’s mission.

Keeps getting worse

The second to last version of this app worked well. I relied on it and enjoyed using it. The last version of this app only allowed me to use the library card barcode for scanning. I relied on it. This version of the app is completely nonfunctional. I have an iphone 6s. Considering this is a public library app, it should be functional for a wider variety of phones, including older ones.

Doesn’t open

The app doesn’t open; it instantly crashes. I tried deleting and redownloading but no luck. Please fix this soon!! I love my library!! I will update review when it’s fixed xoxo

Lost

Bring back Libby. This one is terrible

New library App Keeps Crashing

I have an iPhone 7. Old app worked great. This one keeps crashing before I can open it. Please fix so it works with older phones too. We can’t all afford newer iPhones. Thanks!

Broken- but was great while it lasted

Since yesterdays version update to 24.05.00 the app only crashes. No matter how many times the awesome ladies at the appanaug branch tried to help me uninstall and reinstall it.
We were able to confirm that I was downloading the new app but even they could not understand why the app keeps crashing.
If this could please get fixed I really enjoyed being able to check for books and media and request holds on them right on my iphone.
