I use my school laptop and it works great. But when I try to sign in on my phone, it just freezes. I tried the "Can't sign in? Use this code to help!" but, when I tried that, it just said "Incorrect code. Please try again." So 2 stars. Please fix. Other than that, it really is great.(the hold list is really long though)

Can we just take a moment to think that a publicly funded program made this app? Sure it's not perfect, but when you get it running, it sure does run. You can search from multiple local libraries at once, interact with your audiobook as a notification, have multiple people or locations on one card (*cough* Netflix) and so much more. I feel like the app really is intuitive and remembers me each time I use it. It's certainly my go to library app and I will miss it after I leave high school.

I LOVE this reading app! It's very easy and asthetic to use. I'm just super disappointed with a recent problem where I can't turn up the reading speed on audiobooks without the app giving me an error message saying that there's a problem with my internet connection--even though I have full bars. Otherwise, it's an awesome way to check out ebooks and read.
