Great for finding resources
I love the way this app gives me access to books and resources in the library. Seeing when books arrive at my branch for pick up is terrific!
App will not login
Despite having no problem logging into the BPL website, the app will not log me in. When I enter my barcode and PIN, I get an error message. I messed around with this for way too long, and it was a complete waste of time.
Can’t upload the app to my phone
I downloaded the app, put my library card in, set up the account. Saw the book I had checked out. Went to my home screen and didn’t see the app. Can only access the app through the app store. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Gave it one extra star because of the ease of use in logging in.
Sorry but garbage
Sorry but this app is just garbage. I can’t find the books checked out to me anywhere in the app, I can’t open them in Kindle, and I can’t browse the entire library (by category), just the new acquisitions. And it doesn’t sort series by number. And you can change the color at night to dark — but it doesn’t change the app’s borders which remain bright white (and there’s no full screen option). A monkey could’ve designed a better app. Did BPL’s tech person design this app by him/herself or did an actual app designer get paid for this? If so, BPL — you should ask for your money back.

Really excited to use
I’ve been wanting a BPL app for over a year, so I’m extremely happy there is one now! It’s really straightforward to use, but there’s one thing I can’t seem to figure out. You have to make an appointment to go pick up books, and I can’t find how to do that in the app. But overall I’m so excited that there’s an app now!

App doesn’t work
The app doesn’t work. It saying that there’s version that needs updating and it directs back to the App Store. Please, a quick fix. Thank You
App Doesn’t Work
Immediately after downloading a pop up alert comes up and says this version is outdated. There is no updated version. Ridiculous.
Requires nonexistent update
The app literally doesn’t work. It says it requires an update then loops you back to the App Store and there is no update.
Doesn’t work
The app requires an update that doesn’t exist. It loops you to the App Store and only gives you the option to reopen the app which then host takes you back to the App Store. Etc. etc. etc.
It doesn’t work and I mean that literally
Just downloaded this app, I opened it and it popped up with a notice saying the version was no longer supported, took me back to the App Store, where there is no option to update. So...no good.
Endless loop between app and update.
App does not work at all - it loops between the update, which immediately takes you back to the App, where the cycle begins again
Developors can you take a look
I believe some one posted a review with the same exact issue i am reporting on. BPL app just keeps circling between the app store and the app itself asking for update. I wonder if the BPL management or the developers are sleeping.
App update not working
Keep trying to do requires update – some bug in system won’t allow it. Can’t use app at all now.
NEEDS UPDATE
