## City of Melbourne Library app Reviews in Australia

### *---- "Terrible"
I truly could cry at how user unfriendly this app is.  Clumsy and not at all logical to navigate. Says it’s still a work in progress though so fingers crossed!
-- BeccaSound, 2026-09-03

### *---- "Bring back the old app"
See title
-- Snadllecans, 2026-08-04

### *---- "How much did this cost??"
It looks like an app made by students
-- Molinem, 2026-07-28

### *---- "Wow, it really is bad"
It really is as bad as the other reviews say. And I lost all my saved item lists from the old app. How is there even an app this bad in this day and age.
-- pie crust sugar, 2026-07-26

### *---- "Can apps still be this bad?"
Does not go back to home from accounts. Does not go back from a search result. Absolutely unbelievable!
-- Atfff124, 2026-07-19

### *---- "One giant leap backwards"
Previous version was fine. Now we have the clunkiest search function imaginable to deal with. Please rethink.
-- Barbara-Anne, 2026-07-13

### *---- "As bad as everyone else says"
Wholeheartedly agree with all the other reviews. How did this get past the QA stage? Did anyone in the library actually test it? Awful.
-- howhighthemoon00, 2026-07-12

### *---- "Plain Bad"
As the others have mentioned, worse than the previous app, bad UI, clunky and slow
-- anynamewouldo, 2026-07-11

### *---- "old app better"
such a step backwards. i loved the old app, it was so convenient for reserving books and making lists. the new one is terrible, so much less user friendly with an awful search function and no more lists. please bring back the old app.
-- sasha78334, 2026-07-10

### *---- "A big step backwards"
Makes the old app look like a Masterclass in design. Why are we going backwards
