1. Lately, when I go to read it automatically puts the text size at the smallest and the brightness to maximum and any attempts to change this on my part result in the book being downloaded again and going back to small text and max brightness.
2. However I really like this app because I can find books more easily then a real library (though an online one can never replace a real one) and when we're in lockdown, I can still keep reading!I have used this app for quite a while on my tablet and really enjoyed it.
3. Book I was reading closed down and wouldn't let me open it up again until I turned on wifi and downloaded it again.Uninstalled and reinstalled about 10 times - it is working now.
4. however, if I wish to renew an audiobook, once I have renewed it, or if I return it and then borrow it again, it simply won't load - it remains buffering forever in the place where I last listened, and the app will not allow me to change where in the novel I am and the only way I have found to solve it is to reinstall the app which is extremely frustrating.
5. this has happened around four times - please fix it!!I really like how the books are downloaded onto your device when you borrow them but the fact that they only have a few copies of each book is a bit annoying.
6. I do not know if it was the latest update, or whether it relates to the particular book I was reading, but I now have continual freezing issues.
7. Doesn't show up in my 'My Loans' or even 'Loan History' so now I can't return the book, read it or rent it until the 20 day period is up.
8. It feels like I'm reading a poorly formatted article.usually works perfectly and is a great resource for audio and ebooks.
9. Next time I go in, I have the same issue.I have happily used this app for some time to borrow and read books from my local library.
10. The only way to have the settings go to what I want is to uninstall and reinstall the app, and then it only last for the period I'm reading.
11. It doesn't feel like I'm reading a book.
