This app really doesn't work. I thought it was my old phone, but it is even worse on a new phone. The audiobook function crashes whenever I try to see to the table of contents or set the sleep timer, or it returns to the catalog. It's unfortunately unusable for me. Adding this review in the hopes that nypl will one day switch to Libby which works very well.

I really want this to be a good app, but sadly it's so inconsistent. Most of the time it doesn't load the catalog - just a blue circle, endlessly rotating. If the catalog loads and you go to my books, there's another endless blue circle. The first book I borrowed disappeared after 24 hours, so did the second one. When it works, it's great.

Doesn't like to load. Lose books you reserved. Glitches constantly while listening to an audiobook and loses your place. When attempting to look at the chapters to go back to where you were, it wigs out the entire app making it close. If you touch the button to adjust the speed at which it reads it to you, it freaks out. The app closes the book and takes you back to the main screen. All in all this app is a piece of junk
