User Reviews

Users appreciate the range of services offered by the Los Angeles Public Library and find the app useful for placing holds and receiving notifications. However, multiple users report significant issues with logging in and verifying accounts, including crashes and errors. The app suffers from performance problems like slowness and frequent crashes, sometimes affecting device Bluetooth functionality. Additionally, features such as reminders for expiring holds and easier account management are lacking, leading some to prefer the mobile website or alternative apps for accessing the library's resources.

The Los Angeles Public Library provides a valuable resource with a variety of materials including books, audiobooks, and events especially for kids.
The app offers a better experience compared to the mobile website after its recent overhaul, with improved usability and appearance.

Cons

Persistent login and account verification issues including invalid information errors, crashes, and inability to add library cards.
The app is slow at times and has frequent crashes, including causing Bluetooth failures on some devices.
Lack of key features such as reminders for expiring holds and a search field on the main page reduces usability.
Freezing and crashing issues after inputting PIN and repeated forced logouts after updates inconvenience users.
