Every time I try to search something, it never loads. Neither on cellular data or WiFi. It really needs an update ### 1/5 — App not syncying *2024-09-23, version 3.1.4* The app and the web system do not sync. I placed an order on the web account 3 days ago and the app still does not show this up. ### 1/5 — Nothing loads *2024-09-09, version 3.1.4* I used to love how easy it was to use. Now nothing loads in the app. I try to search for books, read descriptions, look for events, and NOTHING loads. It stays loading but never loads up. It’s been happening for weeks. ### 2/5 — Update the app please *2026-05-24, version 3.2.3* I use the library regularly. I love my local library. This app does not help. I have to go to the full desktop site to get functionality. If you do a search on the app the results never appear. They just continually load. ### 2/5 — so slow *2025-04-09, version 3.1.6* omg you guys really need to update this app, it’s so slow and anytime i search for a title it just keeps loading and loading forever and never actually loads. apart from that it never tells me when my books are ready for pick up, and i never get the emails either. MAKE IT BETTER. ### 2/5 — No notifications *2022-11-06, version 2.0.3* Why does this app not have an option for notifications? Even in iPhone settings the app does not show up for an option to set notifications. ### 3/5 — Love/Hate *2024-02-20, version 3.1.2* I really enjoy the ability of checking out books from my phone, iPad etc. I’ve loved this app until about 2 months ago where it no longer allows me to see the books I have on hold. I have tried turning off my phone. Logging out then back in. I even deleted the app and reinstalled it. Very frustrating. Another option I wish this app had was notifications for when a book on hold becomes available. ### 3/5 — Good start... *2020-01-25* Good start, but I do hope that the App will evolve to include more of the data and information that is available on the website such as my lists. ### 3/5 — Update it *2019-08-15, version 1.0.5* Please update the finding where the books are. I put to find a copy and it shows a map but not specifically which library, I try tapping on it and it doesn’t work I want it more specific so there easier to find ### 3/5 — Nice improvement, however … *2019-05-10, version 1.0.2* I can’t seem to find any way to renew an item. There should be a renew button on the item page or the user account page but there isn’t. As it is, I can’t see any way to accomplish this. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2025-07-05, version 3.2.0* I am apart of book clubs and read books on my own so using this app has been amazing. I have put so many on this app because of how easy it is to find a book or have it shipped to your preferred library. I also like how you can request a hold of a book and it tells you your place in the queue. This is such an underrated resource in dade county ### 5/5 — accessibility *2025-06-18, version 3.2.0* GREAT app love using it, but they dont have a version for android or samsung users. ### 5/5 — So much I didn’t know about! *2025-04-01, version 3.1.6* This app has so much more than books!! ### 5/5 — Book delivery has helped me access books *2024-06-10, version 3.1.3* The book delivery service has me reading much more and digital access is very convenient. ### 5/5 — Great app. So helpful. *2019-06-18, version 1.0.2* Wow, thanks for this new version. It’s wonderful. ### 5/5 — Great little app! *2019-05-14, version 1.0.2* I was concerned about renewing and card number storage after reading the earlier reviews but I see that in my list of items out, those that are eligible for renewal have a blue “renew” button next to each of them, and those that are not eligible don’t have it. Makes it easier for me to see what I need to prioritize in my pile of books to read! And I see that the card number and barcode are stored under the “My Account” section, so I’m presuming I can scan the bar code from there instead of the beat up, worn out mini-card on my keychain. ### 4/5 — Library card Apple Wallet *2019-04-17, version 1.0* Update looks nice! Would be nice if we can upload our library card to Apple Wallet so we can use the machines to check out books. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
