## mySAPL Reviews in Vereinigte Staaten

### ***** "Good"
I love books
-- LetaStar, 2024-08-16

### **--- "Useful when it works."
This app is useful when it works. The browsing could be better. And making our own list of collections would be nice. 

The issue is when I click on a title the screen goes blank. I can&#039;t request to hold the book when this happens. It&#039;s been happening for weeks now. I had to log in outside the app to be able to request a hold and check location availability. I shouldn&#039;t have to do that. Hope this bug is fixed soon! 🙏🏼
-- KawaiiKingKai, 2024-05-16

### ****- "Really helpful"
I have been using this app for just over a year now and have not had any problems. I really enjoy the audiobooks and being able to save books in your “For Later” and “Completed” shelves. I have used the hold feature various times and they have the books at my preferred location within a couple days. The only things I would love to see from this app is the ability to filter books saved in your For Later shelf by available location, and an easier way to browse books by genre, rather than just typing in the name of a specific one.
-- mclysc, 2024-05-07

### *---- "App doesn’t work"
I’m able to log into my SAPL acct via web browser, but not thru the app. Tried it on both my iPad and phone. No dice. Junk App.
-- saralilithasherah, 2023-06-06

### ***** "love it"
I love this app!! It’s very helpful and I find myself referencing it a lot. The way it allows you to organize titles and it’s ease of use help me want to read and visit the library more. I really have no complaints other than mayyybbeee wishing there was a follow feature for other users, just so I can find books through other people who seem to have similar tastes. But it’s definitely an awesome app without it :)
-- Elena Orozco, 2023-03-26

### ***-- "Beautiful but lacking"
Awesome concept. I really want to use it but having to log in every time I open the app is a pain. Please add a “keep me logged in” option. Otherwise, I just use the browser on my phone (since it has a password manager that auto fills my library card # and pw)…
-- Taylorbirds, 2022-03-18

### *---- "Amazingly AWFUL!"
Just incredible! The whole entire San Antonio Public library system online is completely ridiculous, non-logical, non-intuitive, form not following function in any way shape or form. It’s virtually unusable. Wow! Just wow!
-- Kokeekitty, 2022-02-07

### ***** "Always G🕕🕒D Hours for Wife &amp; I"
S.A. Bazan / Pan Am Library Schedules Keep LIFE Stable HAPPY Anniversaries ALWAYS &amp; On OUR 16th Year of Marital Bliss while the REST are just a miss…Pray + Read Together Keeps US in Sync 📚🛐💃🏻💕🕺🏻💞💒 ≈ 1️⃣6️⃣yts💍
-- Always CAP&#039;in, 2022-01-13

### ***** "An improvement. Finally."
Miles ahead of the old app. I don’t feel the need to open the website anymore to manage my books.

I still don’t understand why won’t you let multiple login sessions though. Signing in on the website kicks me out of the app and vice versa. There are ways to manage two sessions and keep it in sync. Hope to see that in future updates.
-- TheThumbFighter, 2021-11-08

### *---- "Crashes"
Always crashes when I select For Later. Makes the app almost useless.
-- Joshua5674, 2021-09-20

### *---- "Waste of Time &amp; Tax Dollars"
1.) Slow load time.  Safari will open library site in about 1.5 seconds.  The app takes over 20 seconds.

2.) Why does it require location services?  It&#039;s a good feature, but that might be why it takes so long to load.

3.) No landscape mode?   Modern iPhones rotate with your hand of course.  Portrait only looks like something from 2011 not 2021.

4.) App &quot;Support&quot; takes users to the Library homepage.  (The latest books and library sponsored events.)  No tech support if expecting link to help pages.

5.) Log-In Error: &quot;Invalid barcode or PIN.&quot;  

I have my library card in front of me.  I doubt the problem is the barcode or number below it.  Incorrect PIN?  When was this app written?  In 2018, a librarian helped me change my &quot;pin&quot; to an easy to remember alpha-numeric password.   I have no problems logging in via Safari or second party browser.

6.)  The app&#039;s feature, &quot;Get PIN&quot; simply emails a link to *reset* your PIN (password?) not retrieve it.

7.) In App rating opens up a draft mail to be sent to a gmail account.  Seriously!  

The e-mail address is *not* San Antonio (dot) gov associated with library, or even a (dot) org associated with community relations and events.  I&#039;m mailing some dude with a gmail account?  Creepy.

Conclusion:

I hate to sound so harsh, but this app is an embarrassment.  This is the best our library could do with limited funds?  I guess so.   That&#039;s a shame because the money could&#039;ve gone towards more books, movies, and music.  It could have gone towards community events to promote reading, education, and entertainment.  Instead, library patrons seem to have been given an app that simply doesn&#039;t work as advertised.

Very regrettable.  I hope the devs can salvage it.
-- Ol_Vinyl, 2021-02-01

### *---- "Worst app I’ve ever used"
This app is a complete waste of my time, the storage on my phone, and the money SAPL has spent on it. It’s obvious that the people who are responsible for this app put the least amount of effort possible in making it and keeping it running. Any respectable app I’ve ever used is updated at least every 2-3 months. This app was last updated A YEAR AGO. I understand that the biggest part of SAPL’s money is tax money, and that it is limited, but at the very least keep the app running as smoothly as possible with the available time and resources.

Everyone has a fundamental right to affordable access to knowledge. This app does nothing to make sure people have that right.
-- UTSAkid, 2020-09-07

### ***-- "After system updates, this app is not working correctly"
After the recent system updates, this app is not working correctly. Takes long time to los and the location map just shows two libraries.

I hope you can work on it soon.
-- Josefranm, 2020-09-02

### ***** "Really wish more people got this"
Hey y’all this app is amazing just because not many people got it don’t mean it’s bad maybe it’s a bit glitchy but every app has its problems it’s very helpful with putting stuff on hold and you can put stuff you might read later on a shelf (virtual not literally)
-- cammander cool, 2019-10-17

### ***** "Great!"
Very helpful app! 
San Antonio Public Library has tons of books, dvd, and audiobooks. This app is very well done
-- Ama!amA, 2019-05-19

### *---- "Totally broken"
For whatever reason, the app doesn’t let me log in. It’s completely bugged out.
-- brozozo, 2019-01-17

### *---- "App doesn’t work"
Gets stuck in a loop trying to enter your credentials. Totally unusable in its current version.
-- 23466gft4599!, 2018-09-17

### ***-- "Ability to filter broken by last update."
I use this app all the time but with the latest update the “done” button for filters is now broken which prevents the filter from being applied...can no longer filter results. I have submitted steps to duplicate to the support email listed in the app.

Other than this it is a great app.
-- VLVincent, 2018-09-13

### ***-- "Update issue"
Loved this convenient great app until the latest update. Now there are “refine” issues when trying to sort and filter on order items.... please fix!
-- hy-bon, 2018-09-11

### ***** "Love it!!"
I absolutely love the SAPL app. It makes it extremely easy to request holds on books, check the status of my loans, and download e-books. Since downloading the app about 3 months ago, I am reading and being a more active patron of the library than ever before!!
