Ratings and reviews

Really great, user friendly app. I love adding holds through here and getting texts for when I can pick up. One issue though. All recent updates have automatically logged me out and repeatedly stated my credentials are invalid (even though the information is accurate). I generally have to restart my phone several times before it'll register the card. It almost makes me not want to update the app! Any fixes on this bug would be fantastic.

I love the LAPL, but this app provides a lesser experience than the mobile website. Ideas for Improvements: - Catalog search field on the main page. - Ability to easily set a Home Library (or a few) for filtered events and easier holds. - Search for my library card/account to register. - Book recommendations Bugs: - Login page doesn't automatically close after successful login. - Hitting enter doesn't always complete forms, you sometimes have to press the submit button.

This app recently had a major overhaul. It's easier to use, it's looks better, overall it seems so much better. Except for the fact that every single day since I installed the new version I get a notice that the app has crashed. Even when I haven't had the app open in multiple days.
