User Reviews

Users praise the app for easy discovery, holds with queue visibility, mobile checkout, and convenient digital access, plus updates and in-app card storage. However, recurring issues include slow or failing loading/search, missing or unreliable notifications for holds and availability, poor synchronization with web accounts, inconsistent renewal functionality, and lack of Android support. Overall, the app offers strong library access on iOS but performance and feature completeness gaps limit its reliability across platforms.
Pros
  • Easy discovery and the ability to place holds with queue position clearly shown.
  • Mobile checkout and convenient digital access to library items from phone/tablet (including the book delivery service).
  • Regular updates and improvements enhancing the app experience.
  • In-app storage of library card information (My Account) for quick checkout via barcode.
Cons
  • Frequent loading or search failures and slow performance.
  • Missing or unreliable notifications for holds and availability (no/late emails).
  • No cross-platform sync between the app and the library's website.
  • Renewal functionality is not easily accessible or is inconsistent.
  • Lack of an Android version / platform support.

I use the library regularly. I love my local library. This app does not help. I have to go to the full desktop site to get functionality. If you do a search on the app the results never appear. They just continually load.

I am apart of book clubs and read books on my own so using this app has been amazing. I have put so many on this app because of how easy it is to find a book or have it shipped to your preferred library. I also like how you can request a hold of a book and it tells you your place in the queue. This is such an underrated resource in dade county

I’ve had this app for a while but it’s useless. Every time I try to search something, it never loads. Neither on cellular data or WiFi. It really needs an update
