Libraries SA App

I have never been able to open this app. It seems to crash every time I try 🙁

While extremely happy with the function, the last update has become too fancy & “glitzy” for the average user. I am also very sick & tired of having to log in at least fortnightly & this week 3 times.!!!!! Major issue with the developers.

Congratulations, developers, you’ve just locked out an entire community of people who don’t have, need, or maybe just not want the latest tech and updates needed to make your shiny new, divisive, and clearly elitist app will work. Slow clap goes here.

Now unable to open the app...even after restarting the device and reinstalling the app.

Very poor app. Works OK for checking one person’s history, but if you link someone else to your account they cannot check their details easily at all. App needs a lot of work !

This new update and new look is terrible. It is not user friendly and doesn’t make sense. I will try to avoid using it until it changes. Not a fan! This app is so bad now. You can’t even see information about the item you would like to borrow, like the songs on a CD for instance, that’s if you can even find the item you are looking for at all. Useless, completely useless.

I just missed out on a book I had been waiting three months for because the app did not show that the book was available to download. I check the app at least once a day, and it just showed it was ‘waiting’ ie waiting to become available. I am beyond angry!

Since the update two weeks ago the app is now so utterly rubbish as to be pointless.

This app used to be fabulous! I’d get a notification when held books were available or if checked out items were overdue. Now, there’s no option to turn on notifications (including in phone settings, the app itself, or in desktop account), meaning holds are missed constantly. The emails that are sent out seem to arrive 2 days before a hold expires and with reduced opening hours, it’s difficult to get into libraries during business hours. There are parts of the app that simply never load and the spinning wheel of doom just goes on and on and on. Not sure why such a fantastic app has become so poor over the last year :(

Since recent update the ‘limit to’ filter at the bottom of the screen is obstructed’ making it hard to change from my home library to all libraries.
