## SILS Reviews in Canada

### **--- "Not there yet"
Starting out nicely but missing some key features. One -  notifications that alert you when an item is due for return/overdue or when requested items have arrived. Two - an add to Apple Wallet for the liberty card. It’s silly to have to open the app just for the card when it could easily sit in the phone’s wallet.
-- _ceruleanblue_, 2024-09-22

### ****- "Great App"
The app is great for searching and putting holds on books.  The only thing missing is the ability to see how many people have a hold on the same book.  It would be great to see how many people are ahead of you.
-- EngGurl, 2022-11-19

### ****- "good"
SILS is a great app to manage my library account. though, i wish i could pay fees through the app instead of in person.
-- Catlover20099, 2022-01-01

### ****- "Great app, for individuals."
I love that I can have my library card on my phone, access the entire SILS catalog, request holds, see how much I owe, what items I have out, when they’re due, and renew loans (when permitted by loan type). 
What I wish the app allowed for is seeing linked accounts, so I could see the same information for my kids without needing to log out and log back in with their information.
-- ZedMum, 2019-10-23

### ****- "A few “missing” features, but solid"
Great way to keep track of my library items. I’d like to see multi-card support so I can easily track the items my kids have borrowed on their own cards without having to log out and log back in.

I’d also like to see push notifications, but since the system already sends out email notices that’s probably not a high priority item.

EDIT: my original review asked about viewing my reading list in app, but I just found it now, so I’ve updated my review to reflect that.
-- cowboy_k, 2019-06-18

### ***** "One of my top apps"
This is the best app I have seen to manage my library account. It has everything I need and is easy to use without distractions.
-- awcomix, 2019-05-07

### ***** "A parent have to have app!"
Very good to use!
-- Frank773777, 2018-09-08

### ****- "Karen H."
Last update was great. Now may I suggest when a request is cancelled it is removed from the list entirely?
-- Hendyk, 2018-08-22

### ****- "Login"
I can’t figure out how to login to the app
-- SnappyDigger, 2018-07-05
