2026-01-23	sp*****	This app is impressive- I love how when I bring up my card to check out, it brightens the screen. It loads much more quickly now-much quicker than finding my card in a wallet or bringing up the website to view checkouts. It used to be buggy, but it is no longer. I do wish paying fines would be more streamlined- you still are redirected to the website for that- but I am impressed by the updates since, say, a few years ago. holds, checkouts, and integration with the summer reading program are 5 stars.

Second, the app was entirely unable to assist with resetting my PIN. Even redirecting to the webpage was entirely unable and yielded errors every single time no matter how I tried to create a new password.

2017-03-04	KM*****	I agree with previous reviewers that the digital book checkout process is cumbersome. But other than that, this app makes it SUPER easy to search for a book (or other media) and place a hold. I've been using the library a lot more since I downloaded the app. The digital library card is also very convenient; I don't have to carry my physical card anymore.

But, this app often freezes, and then you can do nothing. Also, the way you access digital books and other assets is via links to other aps, like Overdrive, and frankly on my phone, it is really hard to navigate. It's not as easy as kindle Unlimited, for example, to search and download titles. I hope the bugs get worked out because this is a great mobile tool to enjoy being a local library card holder!

2016-04-09	So*****	I have really enjoyed using this app so far. I'm much more likely to use this instead of a desktop to access my account info. I do wish you could add to lists from the app and, as mentioned in another comment, the pickup date for holds was listed. Looking forward to future versions!
