Latest update issues

The latest update has major bugs. The My Library section does not load (can’t see any results ever) and can’t request holds as a consequence. It is not my wifi as I have i tried this in multiple places and with phone data… nothing! Please fix soon!!!

App Now Useless

The app is now pretty useless since it now gets hung up and doesn’t list any results when searching the catalog.

Useless

This version of the app requires scanning the library card to login.
Well, I lost my card 5 years ago, and never needed it.
This is stupid.
Let people login with their card number.

Needs design update

App is fine, but it would be nice if it can get a whole new interface update like Miami Dade library did with their app. Apple wallet support would be awesome to have!
