Won’t stay logged in

There’s no point in using this app if I have to log in every single time I open it. At least my browser will autofill my card number and PIN

Good …. when it works

When it’s not randomly booting me out, freezing, or unable to load data, it’s not bad. Unlike other apps, when you need to log back in, you can’t automatically pull up your saved passwords, so I’m cursing the app at least monthly for that. Putting books on hold is easy; I really appreciate that. But adding books to a wishlist is unintuitive and complicated. (I see there is now a little bookmark symbol at the top of the screen for adding books to a wishlist, but it freezes the app and requires closing & reopening the app.) The search options are also shaved down; you can’t search for titles in a specific language, for example. And to top it all off, there is no way within the app to contact the developer to report bugs or request improvements.

Boots you off

The app keeps you logged in sometimes, or randomly boots you off. Much easier with saved ID and password to go to the library website itself. Time for a major update.

Constant log in issues

Super glitchy

Wanted something like this for a while
