Comments on SFPL for Android

★★★★★ Amazing! I use it to create a reading list and download ebooks for my kindly on the go. When someone recommends a book I just add it to my reading list here. When I finish a book it tells me which ones on my list are available for checkout.

★★★★★ The recent update has hugely improved usability on this app. Before then, if felt like an app from a previous decade. It now has a much improved search function, and adding things to bookshelves is no longer a hassle. Finally, feels as useable as the actual website.

★★☆☆☆ Tap menu, tap Locations, crash. This app is barely usable.

★★☆☆☆ Shortly after installing (and for some reason it required a huge amount of permissions, which should have been a red flag) I started getting dozens of text messages and phone calls from scam artists. Uninstalling it didn't help. Clearly this app is malware or infected with malware.

★★☆☆☆ Can't seem to hold a hold. I've added a book several times for it to constantly delete.

★★☆☆☆ What a mess. This central app has a lame search function. But if you search in the other 3 apps (lobby, hoopla & axis, because why NOT have 4 apps to use the digital library...) you get incomplete searches and don't find all the available titles. Just sick of trying to find an author's next book.

★★☆☆☆ Does not retain your library card number, and is unable to read the barcode on your (clean) card. Prepared to type 14 digits (AND your PIN) EVERY time? No. No I will not. Bad job.
