## Seattle Public Library Reviews in United States

### ****- "More convenient than the website"
A librarian recently shared that an SPL app was available and immediately got it setup. The app is a bit more convenient than the website and has most of its features. I really appreciate the Apple Wallet support so I no longer have to carry around my physical card.

Some suggestions:
- When placing holds, use the default branch as setup in your SPL account as the starting point or with a Quick hold feature like the website. I’ve accidentally placed holds at incorrect branches.
- Notifications for hold requests being available, things coming due, etc

Great app overall!

### ***** "Great new app for a great library"
I’m really glad they finally made this app!
-- pgebhard, 2025-07-08

### ***-- "Notifications?"
Wondering if notifications are a feature of this app? If not, I hope it’s a something that will be added soon! It would be most helpful to get notified when something is due and when a request has arrived. Tried to look under settings, but it just gives the library’s privacy policy.

### ***** "smooth and functional"
so happy this is available! works great!
-- Cirquoise, 2025-06-30

### ***** "Finally!"
So happy an app is finally available! It’s great so far- no complaints. Easy to navigate.
-- May_flower15, 2025-04-23

### ***** "Easy to use"
I love how easy the app makes putting items on hold, booking a meeting room and even checking out books from it!
-- pooreamanda, 2025-04-19

### ***** "Great Resource!"
Really great for a first version. The app makes it much easier to find things on mobile rather than navigating the site.
