Ratings and reviews

Takes a weird amount of time to load and if you change apps it does it again. Not sure why but it seems to be not optimized well. Also they removed the book scanning feature to checkout from your phone, which is the main reason I had this app, so I'm not pleased.

This app stopped working mid-July 2025. I have a Pixel 8 Pro. I tried clearing cache, uninstalling then reinstalling the app, and I installed the latest Android update. The app still doesn't work.

Great to see the library catalog implemented here! The library's website challenges a mobile browser, but this app includes all of the features of the website catalog in a mobile-friendly package.
