## Review summary

Users generally find the Sarasota County Libraries app easy to use with an improved, comprehensive in-app interface and convenient features like reviewing items and saving login info. The main downside is reliability: many users report the app won’t open or crashes. Additional frequent issues include lack of iPad landscape support and a redesign that some users dislike. A few reviews also mention the calendar of events feature as a plus.

### Pros

- Easy to use / user-friendly interface across reviews.
- Improved interface with all resources accessible in-app, better than the website.
- Efficient management of library items: quickly see loans, due dates, holds, and renew items.
- Login information saved for convenience.

### Cons

- App won't open / crashes on launch reported across multiple reviews.
- Lack of landscape orientation support on iPad (no landscape mode; portrait-only).
- Outdated design/responsiveness on modern devices (sized for older iPhones, looks outdated).
- Design changes in the new version (icons replaced with text) are disliked by some users.
