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.

It only shows my information when I log in with my actual library card number (which I don't always have available.) When I use the username and password I previously set up, it let's me log in but then won't show any of my information and says it can't authenticate. Also, where is my wishlist that I spent so long curating on the old app?? Now I have no idea what to check out because all of that info has vanished
