"Broken after last update. Keeps getting error messages and fails to download some titles due to size even when manual download is requested."

"Great App that gives access to a large numbers of ebooks and audiobooks. The only downside is that you must listen to an audiobook on a particular device rather than my preferred device that I can use in my car for long commutes"

"Content and variety is fantastic. However could you please look into the following which really impact use of the app: 1. Can`t search by date added (i.e. no way to list titles according to newest content). 2. No way of easily viewing length of audio books before downloading file. Thank you!"

"This app should still be in beta. It sometimes won`t play the book, gets errors meaning you have to clear the cache and download your book again. When it goes to the next chapter, the times for the chapter change but the chapter title doesn`t and every now and then it decides to display in Spanish rather than English. The books are good the program has many opportunities for improvement."

"The app has a good selection of ebooks and audiobooks however the app has a couple of critical features which need resolved: - There is no widget on the lock screen when listening to an audiobook which will allow you to play/pause the book without unlocking your phone and reopening the app. This is the biggest issue for me. - The app freezes often for no reason, and then has trouble restarting. - There are no notification settings which you can chose how to alert the user when their `hold` book has become available. It would also be nice if the reserved books had a anticipated date of their availability - The app would benefit from different tabs within the `favourites` and `hold` section to differentiate between ebooks and audiobooks. Otherwise the app is easy to use and the interface is pleasing to look at."

"Very disappointed. The ebook component is great but the audiobook player needs lots of attention. The most annoying thing is that it does not remember where you`re up to and plays from some random location every time. I thought I could get around that by setting a bookmark only to find they don`t work either. The player also starts playing on your phone if you disconnect from Bluetooth. I hope they fix this because I love access digital content from the library."

"Nothing but problems. Constantly having to resign into it because it drops me out. Half way through a book and after signing in again the book has disappeared from my bookshelf. This is why I don`t like using this app. Still don`t like using as at Jan 2023. Constant dropouts on the sign in, and download required repeatedly on the same title. Not worth it."

"Love how this app logs you out randomly then doesn`t recognise your login info for an hour or two, then works again with the exact same info. I also like how it sometimes just forgets where you`re up to in a book. Or when it just starts playing with no prompting so you lose your place. All in all an awful experience. Even for free audiobooks this just isn`t worth it."

"Wide variety of books. Poor means of accessing them. The app constantly signs me out, fails to display the content that I`ve borrowed, and audiobooks tend to play without any prompt, resulting in me having to go back and find my place in the book again. A very frustrating experience."
