Comments on Calgary Public Library for Android

★★★★☆ Anson Chappell · Nov 12, 2020

Older app but it works well. Can search, place hold, renew etc. with no problem.

★★★★☆ yo emily · Apr 5, 2016

Easier than Website This is faster than the website cuz u just click the app, and it opens, rather than go to Google, search it up and logging in again and again. This actually remembers me, so I don't have to log in again. I don't get why people say it's slow, it works fine on my android phone. But I guess the website is easier to work with.

★★★★★ Jalal Zakaria · Nov 23, 2019

How's my city going to disrespect the library app like this smh. The app is great. Find books with many filters to specify. Location availability, hold function, etc. etc. It's great. @Devs, I read a lot more thanks to this app.

★☆☆☆☆ Vance Gosselin · Sep 14, 2020

Uninstalled app under protest due to CPL not allowing access to all databases that the university has. Also cut up my library card for the same reason mentioned above. When CPL gets full access to the university of Calgary library databases, then I will reconsider reinstalling this app

Why is it so slow? Have you ever wanted to experience the glacial speed of the library catalog computers on your mobile device? Well now you can! Wait for minutes to complete tasks that should take seconds! Have a nap while you wait for your books to renew! Seriously slow is seriously fun! (Just use the website)
