### 1/5 — It takes forever

*2025-01-11*

I’ve used this app before but when I went to another library and then I didn’t use it after that so I deleted it. It used to work well. But after I reinstalled it it just stays on the loading page forever. It was a great app but it’s not working now. It might be an issue only with my phone and not affect other people. But after reading some other reviews, I can clearly state that this isn’t just a problem for me and might be a problem with the new update.

### 1/5 — App Crash

*2024-05-20*

My iPhone won’t open the app! Just started happening after months of use. Trying to reach out to developer but can’t report the issue directly. 

Instant crash when I click on it…. Anyone else having this issue??

### 1/5 — Useless cause it won’t let me past the “Stay In the Loop” popup!!

*2024-02-25*

So it loads and then the “Stay In the Loop” popup asking me to enable notifications comes up. I click on it to enable popups and it takes me to the page to do so and set it to enable them. Then I close that out and try to do ANYTHING else and it’s back to the constant popup!! Makes it impossible to actually use the app…which is a shame as it was so much more useful when it DID work than the webpage did on my phone.

### 1/5 — Won’t finish dusting the shelves

*2022-12-14*

Latest update won’t load. It just hangs at the “Dusting the shelves” splash screen on startup.

### 2/5 — Keeps kicking me off or freezing up.

*2023-05-21*

Also please include a feature that tells instantly if I’ve already checked out a book. I read 5-7 weekly so I can’t remember titles until I start reading. It’s frustrating.

### 4/5 — Please fix it!

*2022-12-17*

Four stars up until latest update. Now it gets stuck on “dusting the shelves” so it’s useless.
