Ratings and reviews

You have to re-login multiple times a day, even if you've checked the box to stay logged in. Your library number is your username- who has that memorized? You can only select one book at a time to put on hold (the website you can do multiple at a time). It's glitchy and freezes up while your trying to use it. Hopefully they will fix these issues in the next version. One nice thing ots that you can link your kids' accounts to yours.

If you're logged in, it won't work the next time you use the app. The "server is unavailable" displays for things that work when you're logged out, like simple searching. This has caused me issues when I think I'm renewing a book but it fails silently or refuses to renew because of the login issue. My password manager won't work in the app. When it does prompt, it doesn't know which field is which. Side from those issues, the app works well, but I still prefer the website because of these.

Haven't used it since 09/04 but observed I can finally paste my barcode into the "username" field again, from a password manager, in order to login. Stays logged in, at least after a one time close. Here's to hoping it keeps me logged in! Cause as long as that holds true, it's a good app - including the fact that I just realized the search results with the app are MORE accurate than with the website! Please don't break it again!
