User Reviews

Boundless offers a good selection of library books and audiobooks, sometimes with shorter wait times, serving as an alternative to other apps. However, it suffers from many technical problems: frequent crashes, buggy audiobook playback that stops randomly, poor resume and speed features, and confusing interface. Offline access and connectivity are problematic, with the app often failing to recognize the network or blocking downloaded content without internet. Users find navigation and sorting lacking, waitlist management poor, and overall reliability low. Despite updates, many bugs remain unresolved, making the app frustrating and less functional than predecessors like Axis 360.
Pros
  • Access to a wide and current selection of books and audiobooks, including titles with shorter wait times compared to other library apps.
  • Supports both ebooks and audiobooks, providing multiple media formats for library users.
  • Offers the ability to download titles for offline use, which is important for access without internet connection (though this feature has issues).
  • Some users find the basic audiobook player functionality acceptable when it works without interruption.
Cons
  • Frequent and severe technical issues: app crashes often, especially during audiobook playback, and random stopping of audiobooks is common.
  • Audiobook player lacks critical features: no total progress indicator, poor speed control options, inability to resume playback reliably, resetting playback position backward, and awkward chapter handling.
  • Poor usability: interface is unintuitive, no proper sorting or genre browsing, slow search functions, and confusing navigation and bookmarking.
  • Connectivity and offline access problems: app often fails to recognize internet connection, requires frequent re-login, and sometimes blocks access to downloaded content without internet.
  • Unreliable background playback: audiobooks frequently stop when switching apps or locking the phone, requiring app restarts to resume.
  • Lack of notifications and poor waitlist management for borrowing books.
  • Persistent bugs despite updates, with many users reporting no improvement over months and replacement of the once more stable Axis 360 app being a regression.

Doesn't work. Claims no internet access. Heard somewhere they went out of business.

Not enough selections. A writer may have written 20 books, but only 2 or 3 are listed.
