The Deathless Divide

Downloaded a book but no sound

CloudLibrary

I wish I could get audiobooks and e-book from different libraries even if the library that I have doesn’t have it I don’t know it’s really fun you don’t you don’t have to pay you just need to be hooked up to some public or private library or something like that

Night screen

The ebook night screen is too bright and wish it could be dimmed for reading at night.

Won’t delete old books from storage

Love love love this app!!! But want to let you know that when I turn in a book, it doesn’t delete from my storage, so after awhile, the app starts to hold lots of data. I have to periodically delete the app then reinstall it to clear it out. Hopefully that issue can be fixed!

Downloading books

It’s great for people with poor eyesight ! you have a great collection of books I can download to
My iPad for comfortable reading in a size for my eyesight. And I also enjoy the option for Audiobooks and movies.

Poor selection

You’d think a multi library system would have a larger selection. Some of the more popular cozy mystery books are non existent

Ok but slow

The app overall is ok but I do find it can glitch out from time
To time and is slow.

Skips Ahead

This app drives me crazy. When I read a book, it randomly skips ahead a random number of pages. So I have to look at the page number every time I swipe, in case it jumps ahead. It is not my swiping. When it happens, it can take me several times starting over to finally get it to only move forward one page. Drives me crazy! Also Libby has so much better functionality. You can rate every book you read, or at least mark that you have read it. I read a lot, and I have to use Goodreads to keep track of Cloud Library books I have read.

Chapter skip bug still there

The bug happens at the beginning of chapters for infinite scroll. Sometimes you scroll up to continue reading but it skips all the way to the next chapter and makes you lose your place. You have to go back two chapters prior to reach the beginning of the chapter you were on and find your place again. It's pretty inconvenient to repetitively have to do deal with this.

So-so

I have been using Libby to read library books. I signed up with a new library and it uses CloudLibrary. I am not too keen on this app yet.

Rarity

Free stuff? Tax dollars at work? This is my favorite app on my phone. I have read and listened to more books this year than the previous 5 combined. If the book I want isn’t available, I request it and it has been there within a week. The hold option is great. Wonderful solution to the modern media dynamic

Page turning has issues

A large number of pages turn at once when only one page advance was intended. This occurs frequently

Easy

I enjoy how easy it is to navigate CloudLibrary. Whether you're reading an e-book or listening to an audiobook, the experience is always enjoyable

LOVE

I love Cloud Library! I can Cook, go for a walk, garden or what ever and still read my books! Life is great!

Poor Selection

Need more modern international literature. The selection is too limited to Australian writers

Love, use all the time, but punctuation getting sketchy

I’ve been using this app for many years, and it’s been great. However, I started noticing that the punctuation, other than the necessities - periods, question marks, and quotation marks - started disappearing. There are no commas! Before, it would be that way in 1 book out of 10, but now it’s happening in every single book. It’s very frustrating. At first I thought its was an issue with certain publishers, but now I’m wondering why it’s like that in every book. Is it a cost thing, or are commas a thing of the past? I wish they would fix it, or have an option to.

So convenient

I love being able to find a copy of popular audiobooks with just my library card for free. I can’t afford expensive subscriptions and I’m thankful for this free resource. It’s helping me read more. I have a hard time reading physical pages due to dyslexia, but audiobooks make reading accessible.

Wonderful

So glad to be using the app! Loving the audiobooks! Thanks!!!

I like reading.

I’m very grateful that I can read books for free on my devices no matter where I am.

Ebooks

Just started downloading e books and using my shock ear buds. So convenient and enjoyable. Miss touching books but they are great when I am quilting.
