Destiny Discover

Very trash!

As a school librarian and avid audiobook reader, I looked forward to recommending this app to over 2,000 students. I’m glad I tried it out myself first. The app signs me out without warning. When I access the app, there is nothing to show I am signed out. The speed of playback feature is ridiculously bad. The choices are normal, faster, and fastest. I frequently listen on Libby and LibroFM at speeds approaching 1.5. I know what a faster speed should sound like. Destiny Discover’s faster speed sounds like chipmunks. I am really disappointed. Please invest in improving this app.

I don’t

It’s super bad it never works and it is just terrible overall

This map I had to go through security and I did my password over and over and over again but it never worked. This thing is the worst if I could I’d read it as zero but I’m not allowed to. This is the worst worst worst app I’ve ever tried to use sora is way better than this. Just don’t use this. It’s horrible. It will kill you. It’s horrible.

This app is so disappointing. I can’t even search for my school. I select my state and type the name exactly as it appears in Destiny, tap “Continue” and nothing happens. The web version is unstable on iPads (which our students have). Follett’s apps have always been terrible. It makes me wonder how much they care about their customers and patrons.

Terable

If you are using a school account, audiobooks and ebooks are available to check out and return online. Which I think is the best feature ever!

No improvements have been made since my review a year ago. This app is terrible!! Seriously Follett, get your act together! 1) you can’t put items on hold via the app 2) audiobook speeds are just stupid… “Faster” and “Fastest” are inaudible 3) How can you have a searching app that doesn’t allow you to sort/filter the results?! There are three main things that need to be fixed in order for this app to be useful: 1) Holds: The patron should have the ability to put both digital and physical materials on hold. 2) Sorting/Filtering/Advanced Search: The patron should be able to organize the results by things like: newly added, popularity, genre, publication date, etc. Additionally, there is no way to do an advanced search! 3) Audiobook playback speed: The playback speeds are generically labeled “slower, normal, faster, fastest” instead of by conventional speeds that other apps use (.75/1.0/1.25/1.5/2.0). The app’s “faster” is probably a 2.0 and the “fastest” is Millennium Falcon hyperspeed. Both of those are useless listening speeds. No one can keep up with listening to those.
