VPL Mobile

I like the app. But I think that it should have an option to turn on notifications so that you know when a book is ready

This app is fantastic! It does exactly what you would want it to do and is completely intuitive.

This app makes it so much quicker to access the your VPL account, it saves so much time- especially because you don’t have to sign in every time you use it!!

The app became buggy under iOS17. Not only I had to sign in every time, it kept giving me error message when I was trying to load some contents as if my session with the app expired. Please fix it! It was a really useful app!

Easy to use and reserve audio books while on the go. Thank you!

I keep getting kicked out of the app without doing anything. It’s frustrating to constantly need to sign in

Thanks for the Improvements! Speeding up I think. And entering searches goes faster for sure.

I used to have this app downloaded a year or two ago and the UI was terribleeeee and it was so sooooo slow, because of that I uninstalled it. However I’ve just redownloaded it recently and I’m so happy to see how much it’s improved! The UI first of all looks a lot better now! Simple and modern. In terms of speed it’s not always instantaneous but I still think it’s very fast and not a bother! Also happy to see it include some (new? unsure if these were there before the UI overhaul) features like a map to show nearby libraries as well as a section on the home page that shows upcoming VPL events. Also in terms of the main functions like searching up books, adding them to your saved lists, placing holds etc, I’ve been finding those very smooth. Overall happy to see this app improve so much, it’s very useful as I love the library :)

The app finally has a modern UI but the overhaul has come at a cost of practicality: almost every action incl. fundamental ones such as search and navigation is so slow.

You’re better off using the web version of VPL
